1 The reason I am against automatic resign votes as opposed to my suggestion is that this game (and others like it) would never have worked out the way it did under the proposed system, and despite his team-mates ragequitting and bitching like little girls @[Vak]Jaronidas fully deserved this win: 1 The reason I am against automatic resign votes as opposed to my suggestion is that this game (and others like it) would never have worked out the way it did under the proposed system, and despite his team-mates ragequitting and bitching like little girls @[Vak]Jaronidas fully deserved this win:

5 Next reason: Suppose a 3v3 is being played and one player on the first team crashes at the start. The first team nevertheless begins to win the game, but a [b]hypothetical[/b] player on the first team loses his com, ragequits, and calls a resign vote. The resign vote is instantly successful despite the lone remaining actual player (who might well still be winning the game) not being in favour of it. 5 Next reason: Suppose a 3v3 is being played and one player on the first team crashes at the start.

7 I consider a game being resigned when the active players don't want to resign to be a far worse failure case and abuse case than a game not being resigned when the spectators want the game to be over. 7 I consider a game being resigned when the active players don't want to resign to be a far worse failure case and abuse case than a game not being resigned when the spectators want the game to be over.

9 Simply requiring a majority of the active and non-resigned players to be in favour of a resignation, and the associated culture shift of calling a resign vote only when you are still a player, would fix both cases.
