Challenge system logic / description error

[SgtSarros]

It might just be me, but this seems to be rather confusing how it's written:

In 5 thrilling encounters, SgtSarros has prevailed over Stark Lands 3 times to 2, for a win rate of 60.0%. SgtSarros has been the challenger 3 times, of which 3 were victories, while Stark Lands has challenged 2 times, winning 0.

So.. I challenged 3 times, won all three. Giving me a 100% win rate ( and him a 0% win rate )
And he challenge 2 times, and lost both. Giving him a 0% win rate ( and me a 100% win rate )

So... how do I get a 60% win rate?

After taking a look;

Championship Points: 62 • Specialty: Nudity • Wins: 17 • Losses: 10 • Win Rate: 63.0%
Unrated

In total, you have 17 wins and 10 losses. The win rate is calculating these as a whole, not your specific challenges with him.

Unfortunately you're looking in the wrong error for that win rate that I am talking about.
Perhaps a picture will make it a bit easier to explain:

If Stark Lands has -never won-, how do I only have a 66.67% win rate against them?

It's your total win rate against all opponents.

[Bacopa]

Kanaria is correct - it is your percentage against all opponents

[SgtSarros]

Kanaria is correct - it is your percentage against all opponents

Okay... if it's my percentage win against ALL opponents.
Then why does it say 54.3% at one spot, and 66.7% at the other?


SgtSarros: 19 wins 16 losses, 54.3%
Stark Lands: 0 wins 9 losses, 0.0%
In 6 thrilling encounters, SgtSarros has prevailed over Stark Lands 4 times to 2, for a win rate of 66.7%. SgtSarros has been the challenger 4 times, of which 4 were victories, while Stark Lands has challenged 2 times, winning 0.

Either way, THERE IS A BUG PRESENT. Someone with 0 wins cannot have 2 wins against me.

[Stark Lands]

It looks like a reference/flag error.

Basically it's counting
Wins while Challenged: X
Loses while Challenged: Y

X vs Y = ratio.

Wins while challenging: Y
Loses while Chalenging: X

Y vs X = Ratio

Compare X+X vs Y+Y

(I may be wrong, I'm not a programmer, this is just a maths based assumption.)

The problem looks to me to be in the description text, not the percentages. 3 of 5 as originally reported would indeed be 60%, and 4 of 6 in the screenshot matches the reported 67%.

The text, however, says that SgtSarros has won 4/4 challenges, whereas his opponent won 0/2, which should imply that SgtSaros won those too for 6/6. I think it is that figure which is wrong, and the opponent should have 2/2. With that one change, everything else looks OK.

Except there is that spot that says that Stark Lands has 0 wins.

Which is precisely what I'm saying. The written description is wrong. Stark Lands challenged twice and won twice. That then agrees with the result bars and the percentages.

I had meant more at the top where it says they have 0 wins and 9 losses up at the top under 'the commonweath of stark lands'.
Thusly the number of times they have challenged me does not matter. Could be one challenge or all 9 of their challenges are against me, if they have 0 wins all-time, then they have won 0 times challenging me.

Ah, yes. I missed that.

That implies that either the results bar or the description of the results for when you challenged is wrong. I've always found the results bar to be accurate, so in the mean time I'd suggest you rely on that.

The minimum change to be consistent would be "Sgt Saros has been the challenger 4 times, of which 2 were victories". That may not be it, though.
