[help] how to get the nth record for each record owner. Query question.
I have two models, player and game. player has_many games, and each game belongs to a player. How do I get the nth game belonging to each player?
In actuality I am trying to get the nth last according to another column (games_played) but if I figure out the above question I should be good. I tried to use
Game.group(:player_id).having('games_played=MAX(games_played))
which does work for the last
record in each group, however
Game.group(:player_id).having('games_played=MAX(games_played)- n)
where n is replace by a number does not work. It seems group takes only one record from each group?
