never quit

never give up fox, trust your instincts

I hate being told to quit. =/

Thing is, in the game in question, it had been clearly decided in favor of the team that was asking Champ to quit.  I watched the replay of that game.  It was clearly over.

It should be noted that once the game had been decided, the winning team has already "won", so the issue isn't whether or not you should quit because your opponent feels like winning.  Rather, the issue is, should you quit because the game is basically over and your opponents are gong to get bored doing a mop-up job and want to move on to the next (competitive) game.

I really do not see why he should quit (unless he wanted to quit of course) unless he was causing technical problems such as lag or slowdown. If the opposing team isn't even willing to put in the effort to win after 2 of his teammates crashed out of the game they don't deserve victory anyway. Either agree to a draw and quit all at the same time or continue on to the end but don't go demanding cheap, meaningless wins because you don't feel like playing the AI.

I don't quit just because I've lost allies if I still think I can win.  I've had several games where people on my side bailed or crashed, including a couple where all my allies got disconnected and I was still able to carve out a win.  On the flip side, I've also had games where I was doing very well in my own part of the map and probably could have made the game drag out for an extra hour or two, but conceded knowing there was no way to win. 

I can understand that sometimes people enjoy fighting out the losing battle, and I've had a couple times where people pissed me off enough that I made it tough for them to claim their victory.  But for the most part, the multiplayer community is small, why upset people to the point they don't want to play with you anymore.  Unfortunately, Sins games tend to largely be decided an hour before they are actually over, so isn't it better to just start a new game and play out the more interesting first half?

I think anyone that wants to play should play as long as they want, if someone in a game feels the game is over they are welcome to quit at any time.  I have played games where someone on the other team says GG and my teammates just quit, even if there was a chance, I have also played games where one of my teamates lagged out and we still won, or vice versa. You never know what will happen so just play till you are defeated.  The remaining people in this instance had the option to team up and assault the last opponent, AI's will just throw their fleets against AI, you only have to kill the HUMAN opponents to WIN..............

I dont defend people who DRAAAGGGG the game on by going AFK, and I dont defend people who hide colonizers on AI planets.

If you seriously feel that the game is over and you want to quit, NO ONE IS STOPPING YOU FROM CLICKING THE QUIT BUTTON.

ANYONE WHO PLAYS MOP UP FOR 2 HOURS IS JUST A SAD SAD PERSON, ITS YOUR OWN FAULT, DONT BLAME SOMEONE ELSE THAT YOU STAYED FOR 2 HOURS, NO ONE TWISTED YOUR ARM.  ROFL ROFL ROFL

You can pad your stats anytime you like, just HOST GAMES WITH 1 COMP ON YOUR TEAM AND SHIZAM INSTANT WIN!!!!
