I wonder if this happened to anyone else. Twice today my name not included in kill mails. At first I thought this just a fluke.. but the second time it happened, I checked the Notification and Log - sure enough it shows I did scram and did damages to the target.

Anyone else experience this?

I have the KM and Notification and Log screen shot - but I understand you are not allowed to post the KM in forum.

Killmail goes to the person with the killing blow.

Did you get the killing blow?

Yes I am aware about KM goes to the pilot that did the killing blow. However, all other parties that did damage to the target will also be included in the KM. I can see the KM since my corp mate linked it to me.. but I am not included. He has the Killing blow.

In the same fight, I am in the Kill mail when I have the killing blow - BUT, my corp mate is also not included in the Kill mail although he did damage to the target.

Basically Kill mail now only shows SOLO - other parties not shown.

I'm looking at your killboard and I see you and other people on kills together as recent as today.

Do you see a discrepancy between the in-game KM and zkill?

I am talking about in-game killmail not the one posted on zkillboard or eve-kill. Naturally the one posted / sent to public billboard will be based on the in game killmail.

The issue is related to the in-game kill mail (which will be reflected on public one)

The killmail does not reflect the log generate, ie, the log shows you apply damage or e-war, but killmail does not include you.

this happened to me a few years back when the new kill reporting system was rather new. I put in a bug report, but with not knowing at all what was going on not much happened from that.

you or the target changed system before it died?

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Z killboard as been having an issue with the API over the past 48 hours. It does state it on the website.

This is eve internal killmail - not billboard or any other external billboard. This appear to be isolated case since no one else is experiencing it.

The API in general has been playing up off and on for years and is well documented in many previous posts.
