My little rant....

from Demigod Forums

So i start a panth game..2v2...and it is a lag fest. Both myself and one of the enemy guys are commenting about the lag and how its terrible.

I give it about a minute to see if it will settle and then tell my team mate...one more minute to see if it settles and im out of here".

Minute goes by.....i tell other team "too laggy, unplayable...im conceeding" I tell my team mate, "i'm conceeding mate, do the same...bye"

I conceede and leave game.

My team mate plays on and loses.

Why??? And this is not the first time i have had something like this happen. Do folks really think that 2v1 with an AI partner is winable?

I don't get the need to play out what is going to be a loss when you could easliy conceede inside the 3mins and start over in another game.

Obviously i care about my stats...to the point that having needless losses on my record annoys me.

I just don't get why folks continue playing when they have had the chance to conceede inside that first 3 minute mark.

Bah....like i said...my little rant...

don't leave the game until the concede occurs and the game ends.

Make sure you make it very clear both that the loss doesn't count under the 3 minute mark, and give them step by step instructions on how to hit the button.  What bugs me more is when Its 3v1+2 AI, and about five minutes in the guy is complaining that we are feeding on the AI.

Don't feel bad. I played a 2v2 vs. the rank 8 ladder player and his ally dropped 8 minutes in. So after we killed him, my team went and killed the AI, who actually managed to down a tower, and cap our cooldown flag on cat, so we killed him. He then proceeded to yell at us and curse us out.

Noobs come in all shapes and sizes.

 

Not to mention the kid joins a game I hosted later in the week, proceeds to die 8x as UB and then yells at me and my friend for giving the other team the game.... up until the final 3 minutes or so of a long game, we both had 0 deaths.

Yup...or when they decide at 2mins and 45 secs that they do not want to play with their two AI team mates.....make up your mind right away...why waste near 3 mins, i could have been in another game by then......
