People disconnecting?

[Shere]

Then we will have a chance for all players to simply /quit when losing once having no penalty. I say you should leave the decision to the guy that stood in the room. If someone is to abuse, let the abuser be the one with good connection =s

Yeah but if they abuse this too much we'll know about it. Maybe we should require people to report when a match has to be replayed because of a disconnect. Then we can see which teams 'disconnect' frequently. And Creedo, not all disconnects come along with a P-Box. More often than not I just get *click*'d to the desktop.

yea i get disconnected alot of times by purple box but more by just gb shutting on me cuz my internet connection suks...

but i did this optimizing thing on it so it should go w/o lag now =D

leave the decision to the guys in the room? But that won't work unless everyone is honest..
.

I agree, but allowing one disconnect also won't work unless everyone is honest, so that's why I say, if one should be harmed, it is the one that disconnected, unfortunately. Leave the word to the guy that stood there.
Shere's idea is interesting, but I smell more trouble out of it

disconnect = win
unless the other team wants to rematch (fair play?)

same here, i get the purple box only sometimes, most of the time the game just crashes back to the desktop. usually at the win screen but also in game too ;( so very annoying!

i like the 1 free disconnect. but only if the game is relativly even,

if you are about to get killed and the other guy has like full health, and you disconnect, i would definatly count that as a loss and no free game.

or even the other way around if you are about to win no doubt, and u disconnect that should still count as your win.

wouldnt you be PO'ed if your winning shot was ruined by disconnect...



2 bad softnyx isnt involed in GBGL, that would make moderation and enforcment of the rules that much easier.. and it would be nice to have a room like this for these games Rule Edit Room

We had this same problem when i played tiberian sun. People would dc and they'd get away from a loss. Basically the only way we fixed this, was to take screen shots inside the game. If they disconnected u. You post a story of the game on the forums with screen shot evidence proving he dc'd and that you would have won.

I dont understand... why people do this.  But they do.  Niklas, i remember the person you were talking to me about before, doing the same thing to me while i was 1v1ing him.  I'm glad this was posted... because this problem has finally be somewhat... resolved.
