Only thing i can think of is that you never initialized the value if they're a new player.
But it could be (forgive techno-babble) that IP addresses are not static. (They can change whenever required by your ISP) and you may be connecting with a different IP. Or you could be running through a proxy which will mask your IP, or even some DNS servers and firewalls will mask IPs if you have them set to operate as such.
Long story short....IPs can be quite unreliable especially in situations like this. SteamIDs will never change. Unless the user gets a different account.
