Fourth team in logs

[Carlos98]

I'm seeing sporadic entries of a 4th team in my logs, which is causing my parser confusion.

For example:

Team 2 is spectators, 8 is left, 10 is right. What is 6?

[lamster]

The team numbers correspond to colors (red/blue/green/etc). Once a tournament starts only the relevant teams (in this case 8 and 10, along with 2 for spectator) should be allowed -- on that server instance -- and that appears to be working.

The team 6 entry you're seeing is from another server instance running in the same process (port=27277; the tournament printouts show port=27276) -- make sure your parser looks at the port field for consistent parsing of multi-server-instance logs.

Saw a red herring and bit on it. I guess I just needed a second set of eyes, thanks.
