Server crashed and died, burned and dug a hole to china. for some reason the game counted, couldn't figure out why....

That was a weird one. It should have given it to guitarism but no Zapper won instead which I found quite hilarios (as I was on Zapper's Team /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" /> ) I believe Guitarism has the small stack as well (so he had the higher win percentage thingy) and I think territory controlled was either even or in Guitarisms favour. The only explaination I can come up with is that it defaults to Team One winning...unless Team One did control the most territory.

Either way the game should not have counted from a crash, not too sure why it did, but heck im not complaining Free ELO /mrgreen.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="mrgreen.gif" />

ya, im pretty sure we had territorial advantage, but losing 21 elo to a server crash sucks.

We had more sectors under our control

i think techbases (the ones with "Count for Win" flag set) count for conquest% not sectors.

but the game shouldn't have been posted if the server crashed. - i mean, the server was crashed, it wasn't around to post the game

game always posts when the server crashes, it's stupid /mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":mad:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" /> Especially with the unstable servers we have /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

The server(hardware) did not crash, there was a disconnection either from the lobby or by server(software).
The server(software) was restarted and came online, btw the fact is that the server(software) is unstable and always has been, so there is no surprise there /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />.
Gui... The game u resigned could be the one that counted, that was the only game that finished and i got a win for it.. thx.
