13:10.17DelusionalConstitution: I like that it includes bounties, but total team points is not good.  One player who stays a long time will throw the system out of whack.  I’d like something like this. if teams are even….Do a normalized score for each player and add each team’s.  Normalized score is a much better barometer of team strength.
13:12.15Constitutionhow would you average normalized scores? you can't add them together like that, or you would have the same problem as you're describing
13:12.55Delusionalno need to average them. If teams are even, simply add them.

13:15.16Delusionali don’t see why that’s a problem.  Each player has a kill/death ratio.  add all the ratios together.
13:16.19Constitutionthat would only work if all the players have about the same amount of activity... normalized score isn't reliable until after a certain number of k/d
13:16.37Delusionalhmm
13:18.14Delusionalso now we have the opposite problem.
13:18.42DelusionalI say it’s still better than total team k/d
13:19.46ConstitutionI see what you're saying
13:20.37Delusionalteam ratio.
13:20.45Constitutionit's generally geared toward games that are just starting, where there are two or four players and one more joins, so one team doesn't become too powerful
13:21.15Constitutiontoo many times I've been in a game that's just starting out, and a new player joins and we have to ask him to switch
13:21.36Delusionalat least normalize the team score, instead of total.

21:41.15the_mapwhere could I report a bug?
21:42.45allejogithub
21:43.26the_mapon second thought, maybe the bug isn't that bad
22:25.04blast007the_map: what is the issue?
22:33.32the_mapwhen I was looking at the server list, one of the servers claimed to have 1 player, but had 0 tanks of each color, and no obs
22:33.59the_map1/40 players, 0 red, 0 green, 0 obs
22:34.10the_maprogue, blue, and purple n/a
22:34.28blast007is it still doing that?
22:34.29the_mapnot doing it now
22:34.31blast007k
