I take it this was supposed to fix our little "you're not a user" problem?
Or was he just tiered of our bitching over HMW and decided to delete it? :P

No no no. Don't pm Mkall, he doesn't need a flood of pm's in his inbox for this problem.

Someone's already reported it in the problem thread in General Discussion. The Staff has been made aware of it.

Just a minor problem, and it's probably existed for years without anyone noticing (because the cons usually won :P) but...

The status bars are skewed so that it always appears that the Cons are winning.

I think it's because a lot of things in the game were initially programmed as either "Autobot" or "Not Autobot" rather than "Autobot" or "Decepticon".

So, when the Maximals and Predacons were created, they had the Decepticon alts by default, because they were "Not Autobot".

And the bar at the top is thrown off because of that. The numbers reflect one total (Autobot vs Decepticon), and the bars reflect a different total (Autobot Victories vs Not Autobot Victories maybe).

That is my theory anyway.

Very well could be. :)

How hard would it be to throw the Maximals on the Autobot side of the whole equation, so it would be "Autobots & Maximals" vs. "Decepticons & Predicons"?

Possible, but from what I understand the Maximals share the same "Autobot" list so I'd lean more to yes they are Autobot than not.

The same problem exist on the con side too -> we see the cons on the left side, and it seems the bots are winning on even numbers.

Is there something up with the alts? On my SolarCat I have the wheel Loader, (scrapper) and the larger image will load but the smaller one does not and it makes my page say that it is still loading even after 5 to 10 minutes.. I havn't had a page with her on it load fully at all.

I haven't touched those parts of the game at all.

Somit wrong with the logs/arena/something...

Having failed to find *any* oposition in the missions (way to flood the arena bots) I flung my guys on there.

When they finished their bouts, every single arena bout was between tfs that arnt mine. And the same bouts are listed on my HMW rontpage, with 0xp listed for me....

It's frankly rather odd.

Hang in there. There was a broken piece in the admin panel I'm scraping out of production. I think I've got everything set and am hoping all the missions and arenas you join from this moment on will sync up.
