Can anybody tell me whether "End Stalled Game" in Ancients is making the Elo ranking changes the right way round?

(i.e. the Player who "Ends Stalled Game" should be treated as the winner)

(We know it isn't scoring the right way round in Medieval, but the two games use different PBEM code)

It would help if the 'view history' showed who the opponents were, then we could check the system better.
There is also the question of what happens to games that time out after a month or however long it is.

I am told by the PBEM overlord that those games will be awarded against the player that stopped playing.

This issue (Elo rankings shown the wrong way round in the My Games list in the MP lobby in FOG2 Ancients) has now been fixed.
