FFA victory showing up as a loss in profile stats
Nothing big but still thought I'll report this.

I might have enough suicides so that I had less score than R33 or does the game count score or frags in ffa? And even if R33 was had more score shouldn't it show up as a win on his side?

Could be that non-team gametypes don't check the score at all and
therefore default as "loss", I can only remember doing it for duel
and generic team modes :p
I'll check this better when I get back from Assembly (so next week)

There are several FFA wins (ie. this), so it's not an issue that no FFA games are
counted as wins.
It's actually an interesting issue: With 16 players in FFA/DM, 15 could get a loss and only 1 gets a win. In CA/TDM/CTF, that should be 8 players with wins and 8 players with losses. :D Duel is relatively obvious - so FFA/DM could kind of mess up a player's win/loss/quit ratio, and possibly the player rating?

It would be better to show the numbered position for non-team games
than win or loss.

Player ratings are calculated per gametype and also in FFA ratings are calculated by relative scoring and not so that 1 wins and gains rating while everyone else looses their rating.
Also this was discussed and argued whole lot in Quakelive when it came out and IMHO a loss is a loss is a loss.

Yeah but this was about match result showing a loss when you scored #1 :)
(for some reason MM has logged winning player id as 0 for these cases. but it's np as I can just check if top player is == your id)

Yeah but I was commenting on the quote from hangy which was out of the context of this topic :))
BTW, is there a way to find some user profile? I don't see any user
search available at the forum or website.

Not yet, I supposed to add that before Assembly, but won't have time to do it now :p
Will do it next week.

Current way to do it is to append their login name to the profile URL prefix http://www.warsow.net/wmm/profile/
You can get the actual login name of a player ingame with whois command.
I'll see if I find sober moment (lol) at toukka's place and quickly
c0de this thing up, we'll see :D
