Title: Appears to be a bug in ranking
Post by: TheRapier on July 05, 2014, 03:43:54 PM

TonyJoey is showing as #1 in K/D with 45.5

Nothing against TonyJoey, he's an awesome pilot but the code seems to have a problem with arithmetic and comparison. :) My math skills are not uber but I'm pretty sure that 46 is a higher number than 45.5.

simple explanation would be you looked at the ranking after the last score update.   It only gets updated once a day and you or joey may have seen those numbers reverse within that time frame.    Check again tomorrow and if those figures remain the same then you will have a point.

Just to clarify for anyone still confused after Bruv's answer:

The kill stats are updated immediately, in real time.
A pilot's score (K/D, K/S and so on) are updated immediateldy after the conclusion of the sortie.
The resulting ranks are calculated only once per day.
