Holding a game hostage with PR mode!

I know this involves a rule
**
The default modes are -hpgmcb prophet and -phgmcb. The mode -pr (prophet randomized) is allowed aswell, but mode setter (red) must announce it in the lobby before the game starts. Every player must be informed, so they have the opportunity to leave in case of dislike.
**
So we actually have to wait for 8 ppl who agree on PR mode to join the game?
What if it takes hours?
what if there are not 8 ppl who want to play this mode online..and the person who wants PR never leaves?

@RofldoflAs long as red announces modes in lobby with enough time for people to leave before the game starts, this is perfectly fine.
-PR is a fun mode. Give it a try!

Its even worse with people who say ex. "PR MODE" because their team is shit in order to make people leave so they can switch or to free up slot for their buddies and then end up not going pr anyway.

@blazeitup that's reportable because it's purposefully stalling the game, if they dont actually go pr.

It's easy to prove as lobby chat is saved in the reply link that we post in ban requests.
I have only seen this happen a few times but when it did it was always a player named GIMMERED or GIMME_RED. Whenever he wasn't on the stacked team or didn't have his friend on blue slot he threatened with shitmode just to switch team as soon as a slot opened up.
I just never reported cuz I didn't think it was an offence.

@blazeitup but you don't know what Color the players are sitting on or when they switch spots so it's impossible to proof

Could take screenshot of it. Guess that's the easiest way of proving something like this.
