Automatic ban for trolls

[exuvo]

I was trying to play a 10v10 game today and a few idiots kept leaving the lobby when the countdown was at 1 sec remaining. They did this repetedly for 10 minutes until I left to go play another game.

It seems like a simple thing to detect repeated offences for and automatically ban them.

what kind of players do you expect on 10v10?

Guarantee you this was a player who hates 10v10 and was trying to break up a lobby so that he could get a smaller game going.

Ye,maybe( to quote our statistics guru Zinegata) its done by bitter Wargamers.

This could be resolved if they gave you the option to choose a side or view available spots on axis/allied before entering the lobby. If you join a lobby and there's only spaces available on one side then people leave and re- join to check if a space has become availabe on their preferred side.

I'm not sure if this is still the case, but the countdown for 10v10 match would start when there was only 19 players so people would leave because they didn't want to be down one player right out of the gate.

Thankfully, this issue was fixed with the last patch. Now, it only starts counting down when there are 20 players.

Play stupid game modes, win stupid prizes

To the OP: In general the folks who leave at the last minute are late arrivals to a match, and my guess here is that they likely realized they were stuck playing a team they don't like (e.g. they are stuck playing the Allies when they want to test an Axis deck).

Actually if you actually read my analysis it rather clearly shows that Wargame players don't matter. Hence, alll of this complaining by Wargame players about my analysis is a reflection of their own guilty consciences.
