How do you disable ties, on a KO WO leaderboard, so if you tie, it won't count it on the leaderboard?
COMMUNITY QUESTION
Is it possible to disable ties on a KO WO leaderboard? How?

First off, are you familiar with the kill tag system? Whenever a tool damages a humanoid, it creates a "tag" ObjectValue in the damaged person's character that refers to the attacker. If a humanoid dies, there is typically a leaderboard script that checks for the kill tag, and increments the Knockouts and Wipeouts.
(More about the kill tag system: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Tools#Damage)
So what you'll need to do is modify the onHumanoidDied function in your leaderboard script to only treat it as a kill if: the killer has a character, and the killer's character's humanoid is alive.

Wow merely, thanks I discovered something new. Also, I'm wondering how you can track both killtags for when both players die, so it doesn't count the points? Even in a lag spike, when another player kills him, and he pauses then kills back.

I'm asking this, because it's what I'm wondering about how you'd prevent WOs, and KOs showing up on a leaderboard.
