Hi!
In connection with adding the luck data I noticed that about 100 matches had some inconsistent values in the database causing the calculation to fail. When importing these matches again I ran into one which caught my eye:
Oops that is a lot of errors. Usually 1 or 2 can be expected but that was just too many and checking the XG file:
That doesn't look good. Then checking the text file:
22) 64: 12/6 13/9 64: 3/0 3/0
Game 7
Ray Fogerlund : 3 Mary Hickey : 7
1) 63: 24/18 13/10
2) 63: 24/18 18/15* 31: 25/24 13/10*
between Game 6 and Game 7 there is no "Wins X points" so XG just continues and adds moves from the next game into the current game.
This is fixable by adding correct end for Game 6:
23) 12: Wins 2 points
and now it handles this transition better. Turns out there was another one in the same file:
29) 32: 16/13 13/11 11: 2/1 2/1 1/0 1/0
Game 11
Ray Fogerlund : 6 Mary Hickey : 10
1) 41: 13/9 24/23
which can be fixed in the same way.
I suspect I were importing hundreds of matches at a time when filling up the database with matches so I missed this problem earlier.
It would be sweet if XG handled this situation better. Then again I suspect the problem isn't too common. A quick check in my database revealed:
So there are a few matches I need to take a closer look at.
