What's up with the quitting?

Postby BMN » Thu Mar 08, 2012 5:35 pm

So for the past few weeks, I haven't been able to finish 90% of my games, because most players quit before the game ends. They just say: "I have no nukes left and you're ahead so bye!" and then they leave.
I don't really understand, because I always see a game through if I can
(though I admit to leaving many games myself - but due to no fault of my own; I DO have a life after all...)

If you don't practice what you preach, how will others respect you?
If you don't have the time to finish a game then don't start one.

Most players allow 2-3+ hours or so for a game. Most Good players stay till the end, even if they have nothing at all left to do. It's just good manners and good sportsmanship.

good point

I usually have between 1 - 2 hours. I guess this is not enough :(
If I had the time, I'd definitely stay.
