Are you saying you should be able to leave feedback in the middle of the game? This would be unlike any other game type. In all other games you cannot leave feedback until YOU are eliminated (in the case of poly games, completely eliminated). I don't really need feedback options in the middle of the game. Sometimes, I would like to leave feedback midgame, but (a) it would clutter up the screen and (b) this really doesn't have anything to do with poly games.

So what if red thinks the the opponent played really well but green thought the opponent was a bully and a cheat? One thing with poly games, how can you stop secret diplomacy?

No I am saying that it is telling me to leave feedback for games that are not finished yet... Obviously I do not want to nor should I be asked to until a game is over.

Will the colour of the medals be fixed? I see that the platinum battle royal is all platinum (via gold medal winners showing platinum as next achievement) but that the silver and gold have the green lightening bolt, not blue or red. I think this is the same for beta medal, the wrench does not change colour.

Para's a welcome addition for sure, but Poly's a real game-changer. Thanks.

OK, I've read both your posts a couple times and they seem to be saying opposite things to me ... I must be missing something.

They both say the same to me..

  • Kills one slot of a poly team.
  • Told to leave a rating for the player.
  • Shouldn't be possible until the game is over.

that's the way i see it too. you shouldn't be able to leave a rating until you have been eliminated from the game.

I was basically done with CC as I've got tired of searching for private games with good players, being killed by vengeful noobs in public games or winning/losing games solely on dicerolls in 1v1 games. My last login was 4 months ago, but as soon as I read about polymorphics, I got back and bought a premium. Now excuse me as I got to set a bunch of new games....

Yeah, I agree with this. I just apparently misread what Bruce was saying at first.

It says I need to leave feedback but I cannot, just to be clear.

i was wondering if a new option could be considered. several times (a lot for me, lol) while playing a game, you realize there is no way someone could win. instead of death by a thousand cuts, we have an option available to surrender. it ends the game quicker and the players can move along to other games. let me know if this is possible.

In the past this suggestion was rejected due to abuse that occurred when such a feature existed early in the site's history. The new administration has indicated that it would possibly be willing to reconsider the suggestion with some restriction. I encourage you to give us your opinion on what circumstances you would like to see a surrender option for in the suggestion thread.
