I had 16 rated games, at least that's what it says when I go to the leaderboard tab. I'm allowed to start a game with a bot and check a box to have that game be rated. I play the game and complete the game. it's been over 48 hours since then, but the leaderboard tab still says I have 16 rated games.
If rated games against bots aren't going to show up on the leaderboard, then I shouldn't be allowed to play them -- it should just uncheck the box by default if I'm up against bots. If I check the box and start a game with those settings, I should have those settings.
I'm not sure what the intended behavior here is, but what is there now is inconsistent so it should be changed.
Games including bots are never rated. You're right that the option should automatically switch to unrated already before starting a game.
Once you start the game, you can see that it's unrated already at the top of the log.
