I just had a game where a bug happend that caused the enemy team as well as my team to disconnect from the server. Some people were able to connect to the server faster than others which allowed for them to get a substantial lead. When the game ended my team lost and we lost LP due to a massive bug on riots end. When I contacted RIOT support about this issue they said that it was a rare issue so they would not award the LP back to my team, but they would give and XP boost to anyone who contacted them. They would not contact either team to try and fix the issue.

ParrySuper Riot Support - Tech GoogleismineWvuLeague kicked me as well as my team and the enemy team last game. It took forever to reconnect. The enemy team reconnected minutes before us so we were at a huge disadvantage so we lost. Then we all lost LP.

Chat started ParrySuper joined the chat

ParrySuperHey there GoogleismineWvuHey... so what do we do about my last game?

ParrySuperThanks for writing in about this. Let me check the details--do you know about what time this happened? GoogleismineWvui was lv 6 so around 8-10 min into the game

ParrySuperAnd the game was just now, right? GoogleismineWvuyeah we just finished

i lost 19 LP for it

ParrySuperAh okay I see, yeah looks like one team definitely got in before the other GoogleismineWvuour top never made it back

ParrySuperThis is something that has come up recently and we're still working on figuring out the exact cause GoogleismineWvuSo will i get my LP back or do i have to just take the loss

ParrySuperUnfortunately I can't fix the LP since that system is pretty much locked from editing after any matches are finished, but to compensate I can give you an XP Boost GoogleismineWvuWOW

ParrySuperWe know it sucks and we want to do what we can to make it better but unfortunately we protect the ranked system from edits meaning we can't change it in situations like this GoogleismineWvuWell i guess it is actually impossible for me to climb today

ParrySuperSorry about this issue :( I don't think it will happen in your next few matches if you continue to keep playing today since it's pretty rare for this, but waiting until another day is safe too GoogleismineWvuIf you are going to do that XP boost please also give it to my team and tell them what happened

Also i got flagged for afk can you fix that

are you there?

Chat rated Bad

ParrySuperHey there, sorry about that, working on fixing it now Chat rating removed

ParrySuperAs for your team unfortuantely they'll have to come directly and open chats like this one, but we can help them out GoogleismineWvubut you know which accounts were involved?

ParrySuperWe do, although we mainly contact through email tickets or through live chat which is the main reason we need them to contact us that way GoogleismineWvuWell most people dont know to do this

It seems kinda scummy if i get an XP boost and my team gets nothing

ParrySuperWe're more than willing to help them, but they need to come forward and ask for the help and we're more than willing. It's not that we're trying to be unfair, but it's very concerning if we randomly drop an XP Boost into their account without telling them anything. More than likely they would think that a hacker got into their account and bought it GoogleismineWvuCould you email them?

ParrySuperWe can but there is no guarantee they'll read it. If they come to us for a conversation like the one we're having now, we can get them completely on the same page to figure out everything that happened. We also might be asking them similar details so we can figure out how to prevent it in the future

If you're in contact with them through your Friends List I recommend hitting them up and letting them know to contact us at support.riotgames.com and we can help them out quick GoogleismineWvuI am not they were all randoms

i tried to send a friend request to them but we will see

ParrySuperThanks for your help GoogleismineWvuSo ill take the XP boost but can you get the afk off my record

ParrySuperYep! doing that right now GoogleismineWvujust got two of them

ParrySuperAwesome, I just made the edits and should be good to go

Again sorry about the server issue, it's pretty rare but we're still cracking down on it GoogleismineWvuStill mad that I lost LP due to that.. That also was somones promo game

They are not happy right now since they have all champs

ParrySuperThey can hit us up directly and we'll do what we can for them GoogleismineWvuyeah it was her promo

do you know what could have caused the mass DC. So it can be avoided.

ParrySuperWe're not sure yet but it definitely didn't have anything to do with the PCs or connections of the players in the game. We're taking a close look at the specific servers where this happened GoogleismineWvuNew champ interaction?

ParrySuperWe're doing everything we can from our end to prevent it, but it doesn't look like it has anything to do with the new champ since the champs this has happened with have varied GoogleismineWvuoh well how long will it take for the xp boost to take effect

ParrySuperShould be on already but these are the kind that only activate on wins, to give the maximum boost since wins give more XP GoogleismineWvunothing has shown up yet

ParrySuperyou might need to log out and log back in to the client to see it on your profile screen GoogleismineWvujust relogged. Nothing

ParrySuperon the profile screen where you can see how many re rolls you have, do you see the icon with the upward arrows? GoogleismineWvuOh ok thought it would pop up. Only 2 wins for 19 LP

and mmr

ParrySuperSorry if you feel it isn't enough or if you really wanted the LP, but this is the amount I can compensate with for the issue

don't they have a GIGANTIC EXCLAMATION POINT WITH A YELLOW BOX for just such an occasion?
