Surrender

Can we change how many votes are needed to surrender from 4 to majority? If it's clear that over half the team wants to surrender (and let's include 3 people say he's 1 says no and 1 doesn't vote) then why should we continue? I feel like this would greatly increase the mood of the community

Yeah I agree with just a majority, too often you end up with two players who just end up failing to see that the situation is hopeless.

Too often you end up with players that give up at the first botched teamfight and start spamming surrender votes. Nothing wrong with playing a game to the end, win or lose.

I'm talking games that are 6-24 at 20 minutes. Not a "one person got fed early" game

There are certainly games that seem hopeless. But many players jump to that judgement much earlier than necessary.

And that is also very true that there are players who think surrendering is necessary even when its fairly obvious that your team still has a good chance of winning. However, if your team has a majority of people who want to surrender, more often than not the players who want to surrender will not play their hardest, and you end up losing anyways.
