As bertrand noted, Reaper just made #1 in all-time number of wins. But his percentage is only 13%. Ah, but perhaps it's being diluted?

Dustin, for the Ranking-page calculation of Percentage, do you account for multiple bots of the same type? For example: If there are two Reapers in a room, and Reaper wins 5 out of 10 games, that's 50 %. Or is it 25 %?

i.e., is it Percentage = 5 wins / (10 games * 2 Reapers) = 50%,
or is it Percentage = 5 wins / (10 games) = 25%?

If there are multiple reapers in a game, 1 can win and the rest get a loss.

I think he gets 25% in that case. I think that is fair, because he gets an advantage from teaming.

And, of course, bot-firsters tend to make the win percentage of bots pretty much meaningless.
