Surrendering at 15

So, going to be a short post, but noticed an immediate problem the moment someone wants to surrender at 15. The moment I said no, seeing the opportunity to turn the game around, it's followed by immediate toxic behavior. Had to mute the player after he wouldn't listen to reason. So, is it just me, or is this going to be a repeating issue for those that don't get their way when they're "done" with the game?

It's always been an issue even with the surrender at 20 option. I don't have any suggestions on how to fix players morale after they consider the game a loss.

However, I have suggested a limit on the number of surrender votes a player can start. This means after a player has exhausted their surrender votes, that player's only option is to play the game to the end.

I have lots of playback that feature impossible comebacks. Players that start surrender votes repeatedly are very annoying because I have to take time off to click No. I agree that give ups are not fun at all.

Sometimes the games aren't worth dragging out. You can see an opportunity that might not be there.

The justification of "anything is possible" is hardly a justification to not surrender.

I win too many turn arounds ever to surrender. It's not many, but it's enough to be worth playing to the end. I vote no about 95% of the time.

Honestly I would just be fine with the ability to only start one surrender vote in a row. That being said if you start a vote (and it fails) you cannot start another vote until someone else starts the vote. I am still tired of people spamming /ff on cooldown because they don't want to be there. It's more annoying than anything because 90% of the time the spammer gets votes that are 1-4 or 2-3.

You should also look at it from the other point of view. What can be done about a duo wasting everybody's time?
