Would this be more accurate a measure if the maths were configured to reflect kills per life.if, death = zero, then life = 1, else, life = death. call me a pedant.............
you can't divide by 0 so you have to have a plus 1
this is how its done IRL too - a pilots victory score is K/L, where L is always 1.
when people say "KD" they are actually just using a contraction of the more clumsy expression "K divided by (brackets) D+1" ...
But that is still wrong. If I kill 500 people without dying, my kills per life is 500/1 = 500. Then if I get killed it becomes 500/2 = 250. But I never got kills with the second life, so why is it relevant or more acurate?
If it is Kills per life, a life is defined as the interval between deaths.
