So let me get this straight...?

Am I to understand that the titan is allowed to leave the game at 20:00 on the gp for w.e reason as long as its no sooner than that? So in theory someone could titan for just 10 mins every game unless they were about to win?

It would make for much shorter game's I guess but it seems to give titans no incentive to try after 10 mins.

Also I was not sure if this was the appropriate spot for this if not let me know where to redirect it, and sorry.

You could do that, however, your stay rate will drop and autobans will increase.
The mods will consider the reasons of your leaving regardless of the rule and if there wasn't a valid one, you'll have to pay for it at that point.

In general: Leaving is not good, dont do it.

About the rule: After 10 minutes, the game is usually stable for a takeover via -titan because the titan should have a decent level and some items, allowing someone to further play the game.

It applies to certain cases in ID and your general stay rate will drop, therefore you'll get banned for a longer duration if you leave any other games.

As a general rule: dont leave any games.

Ah ok ty for the clarification, I was worried for the future of Island D if people were allowed to just leave with impunity. :)

Is there somewhere I can read more info. on this? The search function doesn't say much on autoban search.php?keywords=autoban&terms=all&author=&fid%5B%5D=101&sc=1&sf=all&sr=posts&sk=t&sd=d&st=0&ch=300&t=0&submit=Search

Burn.. Any ENT game you play as affect on your stay rate. Whether the bot bans for it depends on the game. That being said, you should still not leave TD or ID games because it affects your stay rate.

Ah, I understand now...I was a little confused by your wording.

Just to clarify since it still isn't exactly clear yet:

1) There is no auto-ban for Island Defense. (yet)
2) Leaving reduces your stay rate for all ENT games. (obv. though)
3) Low stay rate means longer auto-bans.

Can't just be a warm body for 10 minutes, have to play otherwise you risk ban.

Proof that you don't play ID. When a titan leaves after 10 min he usually is level 3, has no items and ankh probably gone. This does not allow someone to takeover.

Be fair, he might have some recipes and an eye (casted) on him.
