Why would using UNION cause the subqueries to be de-optimized?
explain
(SELECT count(gamename) as gname ,variation from zertz_gamerecord
where (gmtdate > date_sub(current_timestamp(),interval 90 day)) and (player1='13213' or player2='13213' ) group by variation limit 3)
shows using index on gmtdate
explain
(SELECT count(gamename) as gname ,variation from mp_gamerecord
where (gmtdate > date_sub(current_timestamp(),interval 90 day))
and (player1='13213' or player2='13213' or player3='13213' or player4='13213' or player5='13213' or player6='13213')
group by variation limit 3)
shows using index gmtdate

ie: the same two queries shows using no indexes on the first half
of the query.
