new ratings system needs a left game early option
I would suggest a small change , perhaps a "left game early "option would be well served here. that way we would know who the chronic deadbeaters, and game throwers are.

I think a 1 for attendance would sort of imply that.

I would like to see either several "explanation" or "check off" boxes OR a return to adding feedback (unmoderated, since moderation was the issue).richardgarr wrote:I would suggest a small change , perhaps a "left game early "option would be well served here. that way we would know who the chronic deadbeaters, and game throwers are.
I posted a few ideas in a poll, but not too many people have responded.

If a peron misses repeated turns but does manage to make it through the game till end. I would give that person a 1. If a player quits halfway through or deabeats all together I would find an option to let others know , would be well served.
Originally I was going to suggest a minus option to deal with that issue, but people would abuse it.
A little option of pointing out the deadbeaters would be useful and practical. Moderating said option would be easy, all a mod would have to do is check if the player was kicked out for missing to many turns. So abuse would be easily avoided.

I don't think missing repeated turns deserves a lowering, in my opinion there are 2 ratings to be given 1 for deadbeating 5 for getting to end, I know I go against that but if it's in the rules I allow it.

Deadbeating or quiting a game that you are losing is not in the rules, it is actually a plague on CC, and giving any type of positive rating for this behavior, is unacceptable. By not leaving a rating for these people, it still does not solve the issue or warn others of a players unsportsmanlike conduct.
Again I feel that, people have a right to know who the chronic deadbeaters are.

Guys (in the generic "ladies & gentlemen" sense) ... please focus on the topic here - richardgarr's suggestion.richardgarr, in the first post in the thread, wrote:I would suggest a small change , perhaps a "left game early "option would be well served here. that way we would know who the chronic deadbeaters, and game throwers are.
[I appreciate, and agree, that discussion of 'what ratings are appropriate and when' can be useful but that should be in General Discussion rather than here in Bugs & Suggestions.]
