by **e_i_pi** on Wed Dec 10, 2008 3:28 am

Concise description:

When you lose on Assassin, you count as a defeated opponent for yourself

Specifics:

Uh... not much more detail is required yo
Oh yeah... I've defeated myself on doubles too

Comments
We need Emmet. He could fix it

Hey Pi,

I'm confused - how do you know this?

You have only won 1 assassin game... and at the mo - have 4 defeats (according to map rank and my eyes)

The only way of finding out how many assassin unique defeats you have - is for you to get a medal...

Which you haven't got one of... - can you provide proof?

Yeah I have the map rank thingy installed, I have icons next to my own name :shock:

I'll post a pic when I get home... could be a maprank bug?

You've been babysitting for Benjikat haven't you? - Did you run it whilst you were logged in as him?

I strongly suspect Benji has beaten you...

Try running it again when you are logged in as yourself.

PS (Those icons are MapRank only)

Last time I babysat for BID was weeks ago... the icons next to my name were on my account, so I'd say it's maprank

Have you tried running MapRank again?

Uninstall associated preferences. The problem will magically disappear.

This is not the bug you thought it was.

What you have is some of Benjikat's data (in particular defeating you) mixed with your data.

This happened because you logged in as Benji and then map ranked him meaning Map Rank thought you were genuinely Benji
and then saved that data. Map Rank does not assume people will log into other accounts and then actually map rank that account whilst logged in.

This problem only appears with the defeated icons saved data - I can workaround this by adding an extra bit of code.
