Points Question - for people who drop out for missing turns.

I finished and won a game.

One guy was doing well and would play quickly. Then he started to lose and it was obvious he would not win. So he started missing turns. He was eliminated for missing turns.

After the game was over, he lost less point then the guy who fought strong the whole game.

There was only one round difference between the first guy being eliminated and me winning.

I know it is based on a players ranking and the points are a percentage of the player's ranking.

But people who give up and skip turns really drag the game down.

Just ranting. I know it has been discussed to death.

It would be good i think if deadbeating made you lose say... double points, no extra loss for missing turns (happens to the best of us) but for 3 turn in a row deadbeat... i do think they should lose more points...
