Req,
I played a game in Battle 3 against arborator and was ahead by a good amount throughout the entire battle. He could tell I was going to win and voted to end the game early. I did also after him.

In My Games list, the battle is listed as a victory for me and I got the points.

In the new Battle News page, it is listed as his win and my loss even though it accurately shows my higher kills and points.

Must be a bug due to voting to end. Hope you can fix it. Not critically important...just avoids some confusion.
Cheers,
H.

Req fixed my problem. This (meaning MY post...Hwatta still needs help) post can be deleted

Nope...not deleted yet. It just happened to me again. I won the battle and got the points just fine. But, in the Battle News page it shows it as a loss to liamo...even though my points were obviously higher. We did not vote to end or anything odd this time.

Only thing different is that instead of me destroying his last unit and ending the turn (and thus the game). He used his last HC to hit my HC army, killing himself off and ending the game in a blaze or glory. Perhaps something in the programing makes the person who ends the battle count as the winner???

If you can fix it great...if not, no real problem. It just renders the ranking system a bit suspect for those who care about such things.

Battle 9 8 21 AUG 2005 1 liamo (1150) 3314 (98)
2 Hwatta (1354) 5690 (100)
AutoBattle 5 17 20 AUG 2005 1 Hwatta (1340) 1590 (200)
2 Lonestorm (1270) 1381 (172)
Battle 3 15 20 AUG 2005 1 Hwatta (1328) 3511 (170)
2 TheLix (1192) 3163 (201)
Battle 3 10 20 AUG 2005 1 aborator (1217) 1169 (85)
2 Hwatta (1348) 2469 (120)

All 4 of these should be wins for me...but I am now 50/50.

Haha, and Req was just telling me yesterday how much of a mess the NORMAL ranking system is. This new one is really screwy...
