Defects on leaderboard

All the numbers are even. Is each defect counted twice?

The whole leaderboard is full of defects! oh... you meant defections. Never mind.

because if you defect, it counts you as defecting against both teams!

Thinking about it some more, this does make sense - if you defect then it counts as a win & a loss on your record, so 2 defects does make sense.

For example, if you played in 10 games and defected every time, your record would read 10 wins, 10 losses, 20 defects - or in other words, that you have defected 100% of the time, which is correct.

But wouldn't that read as 40 defects, Gandalf?

I love stupid people.

Read the OP, he is saying there are 2 defects for every defect. That means that in his pretend scenario of 20 defects, you would multiply the number of real defects by 2 to find the number of listed defects.

10 wins, 10 losses. Irrelevant. What really matters is that their was a defect each round. That would mean 40 defects.

Unless you mean to say that the GAMES were counted twice, and in actuality there was only 5 games played, each was (won and lost) due to the defect, and in that instance it would be 10 defects with 5 games played. But that is an even faultier system.

10 wins and 10 losses out of 10 games played genius.

Yeah. I think we kinda concluded with above post that a system that counts a win and a loss for a single play which double counts defects is retarded.

Late to the show, much?
