It's not that they're removed, rather they're hidden. If you play again you're unhidden and it's like you were never gone. No loss in rank, no loss of points.
Request for the stats site. For army games, it's difficult to see which APM is mine. It'd be cool if we could filter, or if there were different colors, or line types, or something, so we can see visually see which line is who's for APM without having to hover over. It's a very minor thing – but it'd be nifty.
Sorry, I mean the graph at the end of a game where you have the Hotstats-like graph over time with resource production, number of units, APM etc. That's just displaying a blank graph for me at the moment. So the exact thing you linked to, but the in-game version.
So today this happened: http://www.pastats.com/chart?gameId=84413 The way this came to be is this: [P]CDRKF played this game before: http://www.pastats.com/chart?gameId=84402 When he started the next automatch after that somehow his PA failed to recognize the new players and kept the old ones. His PA happened to be the first one to report so the opponent from the earlier game and the map and stuff shows up. Prideskunks report came in maybe 1s later and was discared because it did not match up. When the game ended however he was able to report his win, since he was in the game after all and had the necessary private data available to him. Now I am wondering if maybe earlier broken winner reports also came to be like this? It would explain how a player can report to a game "I won" without being listed in the game.
I'm having some issues with the 2v2 stats. When I look at "All Games" (from http://ladder.pastats.tk/player/29786), I see games 66362 and 83865 show up (correctly) as wins. Yet when I look at "2on2 Games" they show up as losses. Any idea why that is?
The data on PA Stats itself for these games looks fully correct. You'll have to ask @Illmaren about this, he runs the ladder page. I can't directly change it, as PA Stats only provide a webservice with the data.
Upcoming: Display of "something just died in this place", let's call them ghosts, for structures as well as for mobile units: Allows for some fun reasoning about long gone games: Something seems to attack that base? A few seconds later Ah, so those bombers probably killed the buildings before...
Error summary for myself: This game ended with a server-crash: http://www.pastats.com/chart?gameId=87984 The wrong winner was reported a few minutes later by whokickedmydog who played in this game: http://www.pastats.com/chart?gameId=87969 Theory: The score screen somehow got the wrong player-link id because of the crash before. Weird is that reporting from whokickedmydog did work in the later game.
