suggestion

[BBo]

Many games someone dropped so we drawed and feeling sense of futility but there is solution
--> Mean east red blue 3 4 west 5 6 7 8
If someone droping?(if we have time for saving game) We can save game fast fast and then if he dropped .. we have to draw
And then remake game(saved game) and then all players join and then continue game But this is not working( + 15elo -15elo) system
So if east win? We should 4s rejoin same team same players
And then west have to lose with no heal or !ff (mb !ff no work?) This is really tiresome but seems fair game haha
Im tk bbo ^^ anyway sorry my english bad............. conglish............

So you wanna save the game - make the game as a privat game (not LIHL) and play the game out?
Wouldn't that require you to save the game before the player dc'd/left?
And it wouldn't count the elo.

if this is not what you are suggesting then you need to write it in understandable english

Either way it doesn't seem like a good idea and I don't have a problem with the current system - loost 20+ elo when you dc seems fair to me

[SLSGuennter]

this is way to much work to get the outcome of 1 game imo ...

[eldryan]

definitely should be done if it's doable for someone to rejoin the game. dc penalties have ruined the league results too many times, and affected to a huge degree the outcomes. also, PP is still an issue. PP =unvouch, not dc penalty - something that is never enforced.

[BBo]

lol there are so many "and then "s kk xD

[pewpew lasergun]

this season maybe i got 7 wins cancelled due to dc
i dont mind it at all. but yea feels bitter for most players including myself although i never reported dc or even rage quits in opposing teams.
half of them or more with bbo in my team
yes its frustrating but i dont think its feasible

i can only think of 1 solution

mod does a prognosis

if no clear outcome then normal dc

if losing team dc, no elo awarded to losing team rather a small penalty or null and a bigger penalty to the dc player, all +elo goes to winning team

Example 1:

WEST TEAM
player A + 11.5
player B + 11.5
player C + 11.5
player D +11.5

EAST TEAM ( prognosis = lose )
player F - 7
player G DC - 25
player H - 7
player I - 7

Example 2:

WEST TEAM
player A + 6.2
player B + 6.2
player C + 6.2
player D + 6.2

EAST TEAM ( prognosis = lose )
player F + 0
player G DC - 25
player H + 0
player I + 0

1) Can't you go and watch the replay in between games?
2) What is the time that players must wait to start the new game? 5 mins? 10 mins?
3) Is it fair for players for schedule for 1 - 1 hour 15 minute games but due to restarting games this is likely to increase to 1.5 hours (max length)?
4) @pewpew lasergun suggestion Mod's decision is not a good solution.

One alternative is every game a dc penalty is automatically applied.

[Krayyzie]

Will just create more drama...as alot of players think they win in every case when there is a dc, even when games are even = "we win 100%, we cant loose..."

[Krumme]

Automatically dc pen every game is what should have been done a long time ago but I guess it's not possible since it hasn't been done?

[supersexyy]

If there is a will there is a way :p

Mod prognosis: Bad idea, not so few games have an unexpected outcome and it would result in too much drama (as Brave said, too many ppl always think they would win when there's a dc), also I'm sure many people would decide differently.

Save game, reload etc: Looks like too much effort if it would even work (as Krumme said: "Wouldn't that require you to save the game before the player dc'd/left?")

I wanted automatic dc penalties for a long time, but now I would say the current solution is the best one as everyone can decide by himself whether he feels a penalty would be fair or not. But imo that's the only change we could talk about (I think it would be possible, but then probably without any exceptions, so dc at lvl 1 = penalty etc)

What diablo_ said. Archiving.
