He might be asking when R5 was released, or when the problem was introduced, to back up his claim that he told us so.

I thought so too, but maybe Wasp was telling him to read earlier posts that say when the problem was introduced (2009).

I know what he was asking for and why he was asking for it. He is looking to make an argument so I derailed him immediately.
He lost all credibility when he applied bayesian probability (trueskill) to the ranking system while ignoring the underlying premise that the players must be the sole responsible party for game outcome.

Erm, yeah. Thanks for the derailing, as you put it.

And you wonder why nothing ever gets done around here?
Struggling to fix bugs introduced seven years ago yet still with the bickering and ad hominems?
Please, don't allow me to stand in the way of this paradigm of professionalism and grounded thinking.

Am I wondering that?

(I image-googled "Fat Controller laughing". That's the best I could get.)

I threw this project out for "bid" and I got a few bites. The downside is that in each case, the Dx9 project is far more difficult than pushing the Dx7 version "up to date" so to speak.
I think the Devs got in over their head and was simply too ambitious when trying to leap from Dx7 to Dx9. Even though, Dx9 was put into place and you're stuck with it.
Given the history of the FA Organization, it will never be corrected so if you want it working, you'll have to do as they suggested 6 years ago..."fix it yourself".

I want to say that i currently reimplement allegiance. Instead of dx9/dx7 i will use node.js combined with assembler. This combo is popular for some reason.
