The good news is that the reason this didn't work sometimes was not because of too many files but because of a monkey wrench thrown into one of the log files. With that file renamed, it's not being read, and this page generates ratings even when set to give ratings for all public games. The bad news is that it seems to be undercounting the games played by people. I checked out a player it said had played only one game, and the logs page listed 23 games he has finished playing. I was also skeptical that I had played only 62 games. I counted more than that and saw that I had still played several more. So that has to be fixed. And since I have made the new FinishedGames database table, I will eventually rewrite this to use that instead of reading the files directly.
