lucifer is fucked up

first of all, i am not an idiot. Neither is anyone else that spots a problem, regardless of the circumstances. Pile that on top of the fact that UT as a game is generally only semi-stable on the best day and it's more likely that the game is wonky than the person reporting actually missed the deciding factor. (occams razor anyone?)
tonight, on crazy trans jumpers, i killed lucifer twice, alone. there was noone else even on my radar. i know this because everyone always hangs in the room with the piles of shit. with the monster mover, tho, you can hang wherever you want and as long as you're patient, monsters will come to you. So both lucifers spawned in the room with the hill in the middle, where i was. alone. like i had been for 80% of the map. I got him to corner me, and i went apeshit with minelayer energy 3, globe and triple. it rarely takes more than 15 sec to drop him with that combo and i killed them both in less than a minute.
here's the problem: i got zero points for it. nobody was there, nobody stole the kills.
next level, The End . . . same thing. the difference is that this time i was smart enuf to look at the console. NOBODY got the kill. and while i was telling hornet how nonplussed i was about the whole thing, someone else killed him and didn't get the points and no console kill.
there was no vorpal, there was no "maybe he was" nothin, it was plain and simple. shoot him, he dies, nobody got points.
