: Hi everybody.
: I come from playing a network game vs a friend of mine, and we are discussing
: since hours about how Marathon determines who's the winner.
: The game was set up to end at 5 kills. I killed him 8 times (4 by suiciding
: myself). He killed me 5 times (1 by suiciding himself) and so the game
: ended when he killed me for the 6th time. But the result was I won because
: I was -2 and he was -3.
: Does anyone of you guys have clear in mind what method uses the game to make
: the final chart? I mean, it is not clear to me haw does it count suicides,
: and how does suicides affect the final count and the determination of who
: is the winner.
: Thankyoy.
: Paolo
Victory by kills was something not coded into the original game, only victory by score over time, so the Postgame Carnage Report will show the net score and not the kill score. While this usually doesn't matter, in your case, it clearly did.
