Your way if there is a tie it takes a "Random player" which that player could have 0 points while the tie was at 30,000 points.
My way selects one of the two who tied randomly

Yes both Pozzuh and I know that one, what we posted is a slightly modified version of that.

In case of a tie, it returns "undefined" which will cause a crash for you I bet, and our modified versions return a player in the event of a tie, avoiding the crash.

Why did you add a check to skip people on the "axis" team. Tongue
