when you/someone declines game match, why make them wait?

ItsCalledALance·Jan 28, 2016·2 votes·501 views

when you decline a game it says "returning to lobby" for theother people it says "waiting for other players"

Why specifically do you have to wait when you decline?

why do others have to wait till the little line goes to the end to requeue?

Seems silly.

EDIT:

AFK check is a non-issue if someone declines a match. Just restart that thing immediately.

Example: (am i really this bad at explaining things? how are people not getting this?) 2 people hit the check box right!? 1 person hits decline. still with me? The program then waits for the REST of the players when it already KNOWS it Can NOT create a game with only 9 players.

So my question again, Why wait? requeue everyone the moment someone hits decline.

So the system can see if other people are afk so it can kick them too, instead of putting an afk player in the queue again when they'll only not be there and extend the queue again.

That moment when Nami and Teemo both say the exact same thing in different verbiage... [slayer-jinx-wink]

both of these are non-issues when someone declines. Reset that thing instantly.

It's an AFK check for everyone. The reason it hits everyone is to confirm all in queue are present. Otherwise you could have 7 people AFK and have it hit each person 7 times... queue's are already long enough.

ok....why do I have to explain this? if someone declines, there is no need for an AFK check. you aint going to be playing 4v5
