its not about dmg done or scored kills.

this was RATED game. but thx to retarded game mechanics of best programmers in the world the players doing content that is in game for 6 months were surprised once again with greatest bug ever.

i just dunno wtf is one supposed to tell his teammates to keep the morale up , if you win vs shitty teams , you get nothing, if you beat best team on your server , you get the same

Really silly thing, but grats on the honour of winning over them :)

Madavaster... it was not a Rated game :P (even if you queued for rated).

I made a ticket about it (well, several tickets, till I found a GM that was actually willing to talk about it). The reason why you get "bugged" games is a blizzard error that moves your game to "Skirmish"

So, even if you queued for rated, you are in fact playing a skirmish game (which is also why most of the "bugged" games are easy wins, cause you end up against crap skirmish teams which you can win 4v5).

Blizzard can do nothing about it (like fix you rating, or correct the game to show as a win in your rated games history), since that rated game doesn't exist. They can't fix /add the game (as rated) between you and whoever were your opponents since hey.. those that you played against in the "bugged" (aka skirmish) game may not even be a real team, but just 5 random players.

Enjoy Blizzard!

sorry to bother you but it was queued as RATED and this was 2nd game against Allora team in a row, we lost 1st and LOST RATING, we won 2nd and got shit. and we both queued for rated

and somehow the games we didnt get points where always against organized people who all 5 together came from a team of same name. i never queue to skirmish. and the queue icons are quite easy to distinguish

Mada, perhaps you missed a tiny little sentence Esk used: The reason why you get "bugged" games is a blizzard error that moves your game to "Skirmish"

[Madavaster]

yea yea. uber thing is ... NEVER LOST A SINGLE game that would be accidentally be moved to skirmish as you say. each loss i ever had meant 1 thing. lost rating. but so many fucking wins against serious teams, like this 1 here, ended up with nothing. and the fact you believe a GM is very funny for me cause one gm told me once after a ticket a completely differetn story. that they are aware of the bug but the bug is a problem with the display on the client's end but they at blizzard got all the correct info from all game and the points calculation is based on their info they got from ALL Games even those we don't see updated on the scoreboard. ofc it didn't require us to wait long just till next wednesday to find out this was total bullshiet and nothing else but lies

oh and guess what...u see the icon next to my mini map ? it shows RATED game and this icon remains there although we are already in the arena. so the story about skirmish is good for children. if u dont know which icon im talking about its the small icon on the bottom left border of Mini Map frame.

What are you trying to say? I'm not sure I understand.

Mada, you don't get it :P

Nobody says you queue for Skirmish. Ofc you queue for Rated game. However this where blizzard bug comes into the picture.

Your game procs, and it should be a Rated as you queued for it, however you get transfered to Skirmish, and you end up playing Skirmish without knowing (you find out at the end ^^)

Go make a ticket and ask a GM why bugged games are "lost". Why can't they just browse their records of games played and get it fixed. They can't do it, because the game you play isn't recorded as rated (doesn't matter that your icon is rated, and you queue for rated). Game is recorded as skirmish!

ps they are working on it =)

[Madavaster]

for 4 months at least ? thats like the time since when i remember winning games that gave !$123124 or ----- rating. bunch of ....

[Allora]

Heh chill out dude :) We had the same thing happen to us against Finger of Death when they were 1st :) Still, happily we didnt lsoe rating, cuz we got 7 off u and would lose 25 :)
Anyway, yesterday probably teaches us to play with Kenned from now on or not play at all.
