I understand what you are talking about, and I must repeat that the minute distribution appears to follow the intended design. What the line in the game report says is completely irrelevant both for the game result and the game statistics. There is no game. Showing 50 minutes for a game that never happened is not more of a bug than showing 15 minutes. If you really want a correct number, it is zero.

The fact that some minutes are needed for WO (and they are shown) is directly linked to training and gameshape updates. Can you picture the confusion of the average user if they were not shown at all? Of course, we could have empty lines for WO games and only consider the WO minutes in weekly training stats. I however think the current approach is better, since it gives everyone the chance to check the contribution from each individual game. Even better would be having no WO's.

Regarding the career stats where I considered the possibility of a bug:

I checked the season stats for your example player Mihkel Indrekson (18105910). If my calculation is correct, Indrekson has 655 minutes in regular season games (including 50 min in WO). His season total is however only 603, which suggests the WO minutes are not considered in the totals (so no bug there). The difference between 655 - 50 = 605 and 603 is due to rounding (so no bug there). On the other hand, Indrekson's best performance in minutes is currently 48 minutes (20.1.2011) which is lower than the WO game minutes (so no bug there either). Of course, the record update may be lagging but I don't think that is the case.

As far as I can tell, there is no bug whatsoever with the WO minutes. It all boils down to the minute distribution which is a design choice. If someone wants to change that, I think the correct thing to do is to indeed discuss this in Suggestions.
