PBEM Generated Battle (Quick Battle)

RE: PBEM Generated Battle (Quick Battle)
I started this thread here instead of the Matrix forum because of the PBEM nature of the club. Now I wonder what use this would be to the club.
My opinion:
No use for the ladder.
Possible use by opponents looking for something different.
For the ladder, how would they be reported and would the files be put in the DB?
When I was new to the club I playtested a scen PBEM. My opponent recorded the battle and since it wasn't in the DB, he used SM2. I saw that he had a lot of SM2 victories and asked him why he told me he hadn't played the scen before. He explained that the SMs were for battles not in the DB and that he had not played the scen.
Since then, you can no longer record playtests.

I don't care about the ladder and wonder if these just for fun battles should be recorded at all. They could be however with the SM#.

I don't think the scens should be uploaded since anyone can generate their own. There would be confusion over the name, Meeting Engagement etc, and files named Random0 etc.

If you like to shuffle a deck and see what you can do with what you are dealt, give GBs a try. Don't expect a real scenario, or historical, or balanced.
