This Sunday 16 Sept 2012 i played a map on Hardmaps ESC server. I noticed something strange with JOStats and i will explain here how it happened. The map was Operation Glass Arrow, i entered first and after few minutes another player joined: Murder King. We finished the map with no problems. After finishing i closed game and went to www.Hardmaps.com to verify my sats. And my older suspicious was confirmed now. Murder King obtained his points, but my points were going exactly to that fictive player (no.1) with a blank name. At the table to his last 5 games played, his last game satus was exactly my last game points: kills, deaths, asists, headshots, exp. points, etc. So, in conclusion, the only first player that join a game will give his points to that fictive player(no.1). I am sure that many other players went through the same situation. If someone of the admin staff can do something to repair this JOStats (scripts) bug, i would be glad to send him a PM and tell a few things that i can't post here. I don't know the e-mail address.

As stated many, many times in other forum posts, the stats systems were developed by other groups that no longer support/update the scripts.
If and when one of our guys has time they will look into the scripts to see if its even possible to modify, but that will happen only when they have time in their schedules. And its quite possible it may never get corrected.
Now, after 10 days (or more) i'm not so sure that you (staff) really WANT to fix that problem, about the "no name" player who pilfer points from alll of us. It is a shame, because Hardmaps seemed to be a respectable team. I checked as many JOStats sites that i found with Google and i don't find even one with that unnamed player on first place... Sure, most of you will hate me, for what i said. Time will pass and will bring us better wishes. I still believe in Hardmaps.

10 days seems a long time but when we are busy with our lives outside Hardmaps its not that long, dont be impatient, it will be sorted as we have promised to do.
I am root. If you see me laughing, you‘d better have a backup!

Three reasons why it isn't fixed yet: First: I am looking for a job, lost my old one, lots of research and writing fruitless applications -> less time to do other stuff Second: I am building a house, lots of paperwork, lots of decision -> less time to do other stuff Third: Working my way into foreign code is not a task to do on the side -> lots of time needed = less time to do other stuff
I will look into it "as soon as possible" ( in a literal sense) but not half a second earlier! Promise! Because at the moment I have some other stuff to do... get it?!

Kitzing sounds like southern Germany .... must be, that#s were the Americans were stationed. Here in Muenster the Brits are (were) stationed. They have just left or are leaving now.
yep, we (US) were stationed as far west as Ramstein and as far east as Munich .. I love Germany and given half the opportunity to go back I'd jump on it in a heartbeat.
