Thank you for the explaination. as you can imagine, this issue is unique to HUSNGs only, this is not a factor for any other game type or format.
There are two issues with what you suggest.
1) PokerTracker 4's tournament support is designed to cover the needs of all game formats at the same time. HUSNGs use the same tournament support concepts and functionality as MTTs. The HUD and the hand history importer does not know what type of tournament you are playing until after the tournament is finished and you have busted out - and even then we may not have the ability to determine what tournament type you are playing, what the payout is, what the buyin was, or even your place finished unless this data is provided by the network - you would be shocked at how little data is given to the players on most networks. For example PokerStars and FullTilt are the only two sites that provide full tournament summaries, other networks have partial data feeds that are nearly complete such as Mcrogaming or just hand histories with nothing else that is descriptive about the tournament provided such as at the Winning Poker Network. Due to the spotty data provided by networks (or in the case of Stars and FullTilt incomplete data until the tournament is over) PokerTracker 4 cannot determine if you are playing in a HUSNG, a multitable HU shootout, or an MTT where you are one of the final two players until after the tournament is finished and the results have been processed. In the case of MTTs on Stars and Tilt, this means after the entire tournament is finished and a Tournament Summary has been saved to the disk which may surprise some MTT or 6max + SNG players; this does not automatically occur when you bust out.
2) PokerTracker 4 does not always know when an opponent is sitting out, this information may not be in the hand history, many networks treat a player sitting out as if they are taking normal actions, or they may list the player as sitting out in just the first hand and not in the following hands which we cannot support because hands are not always imported in a linear fashion - for example you may be disconnected or you may chose to import a smaller subset of hands on a secondary computer.
Long story short, there is no way at this time to stop the creation of stats while a player is blinding out. Perhaps over time as networks continue to improve their data feed offerings, this is something we will continue to look at in the future for new ways that we can solve this dilemma for our users.
