Guild Wars 2

In the attachment is a screenshot of the leaderboards taken just 1 minute ago, I compare my data to the ones of my friend, The person i refer to is selected and therefor blue.
He has played 1 game more than i have and he lost it, yet he has a 5 point lead on me.
Is there a logical explaination for this or does this go under the “Test” part of Test Ladder?

the games played isn’t the only difference. the amount of difference in score per game can give different point allocations.

I.e. – if you lost a game 15-500 and recieved a -2 for it, or if that happened a few times, it can be a massive difference between two peoples’ ladder points received.

There’s also the fact that it takes the MMR of people into account. i was in the winning team in his last match and i can say we had decent MMRs, for example, so his loss makes him lose less points. there’s that.
