My ranking went down - but I had not lost a game

by **MikeFromLux** on Thu Sep 27, 2007 12:21 pm

Earlier today I won a game - which propelled me to Sgt. 1st class - later I tried to log on, but the site had timed out. When I finally could log on, I was no longer Sgt. 1st class - and when I looked at recently played games, I had not lost any since my win that got me there....

Did something happen to the rankings today?

Are you sure you didn't have a game sitting in your "eliminated" pile that just happened to finish that would have done it to you? That has happened to me a couple of times.

Wow lack! If you have info like that already programmed can we get some extended stats in an update soon? It's been on the to do list forever, and obviously you'd be able to keep track of wins on various game types and streaks and things like that. But since you (apparently) can get a cumulative history of our scores with ease, we could have graphs of score vs time and all that jazz as well!

Priority 5!

Ahh... but it's not with ease. This score validator combs through the game logs and is very resource intensive. We use it to investigate bugs and stuff.

Bummer. It was a hopeful thought though.

Ok - that was the game that I won, got 96 points, and my icon showed I was Sgt 1st class - then I had not lost another game, but my icon changed to Sgt. (I have since lost games)
