Score calculation bug

Postby Raging_Squirrel » 15 Mar 2013, 16:37

the situation: you played a game, and joined another one right after you finished the first. if you managed to join your next game before the scores for the first one were announced, then after you finish your second game your points will be calculated without the first game you played taken into account.

for example:
1. start with x points
2. finish first game
3. join another game
4. scores for the first game are announced. points changed from x to y
5. finish second game
6. scores for the second game are announced. points changed from x to z

i hope i explained it clear enough. would be nice to have it fixed if possible ;)

Yeps, that's a complicated problem.

It's about chronology.

Let's say you die first in a team game, and play another quick 2v2.

What is your starting point in the 2v2 ? The result of the team game ? It's unknown at that time.
Also, the game balance at the start of that 2v2 is computed with your score without that previous game, so it make sense that the result do that too.

I can take it as soon as it's available, but what if the 2v2 ends before the teamgame ? I will have to delay everygame to respect chronology, and it's really complicated.

i thought you could just take the ratings right at the moment when you calculate them when a game is finished?
