list of "arena deserters"

ambienteternity · 05-22-2008, 10:24 PM

is it just me, or are games that people leave the arena not rated?

the sad part is, they both had higher stats than me

if this is a glitch of some sort that i have missed, then the people that take advantage of it sure are bad sports.

so, with that said, if enough people vote in the next 24 hours, i'll keep a this list of bad sports given that you provide proof of them leaving the arena and see them go back to the lobby

leaving before the game starts results in no stat change (aka before "has been picked for the first move")

many times they see a name they don't want to face to a set they don't want to face and have their mouse over X, then close the window before it begins - much easier to do with lag and a slower internet connection...annoying: sometimes yes, but also helpful when you want to play X person but some nub jumps you

If the game has not started yet then this is just the way it works. This gets worse in lag if your opponent has time to see your set.

Yours is probably intimidating to some people so they just leave. It's either that or that they just get bored of the lag.

oh wow

usually when i see the person enter the arena, the fist move has been decided

apparently the lag is so bad that people are entering the arena and are still able to leave before the game starts?

that's dumb.

down with lag!

You don't even have to hover over the X button, RD.

The lag allows you to just simply press "Lobby." and then try to play someone else.

FPS is for scrubs, Legends was the first server and therefore should be the best!
