So I'll start by saying that this has became such a mess with me trying to solve this issue, other times I have been able to resolve the stale element issue.
Problem all starts after the first players stats are stored ( Everything it should be doing up this point ), and then once it goes back to loop and find the next player we have the issue.
I'm not sure if its caused by the nested loops or what. I try reinstating the variable that is giving me the issues I assume all throughout the code. player_stats
The thing is I did have it previously going through 5 players, and I am not sure what happened, or when the bug first established itself lol, as I was working on getting the rounds won, and played situated.
(We aren't even able to print("Found playerCol element") on the second go around)
All print statements works till it hangs in the while loop after the first iteration.
Here is the full code (with comments):
