Do people have something against Remakes?

[MATCH LINK REMOVED FOR NAME & SHAME - ULANOPO]

First, just above, here's a link the game in question. (I'm the Garen )

At the start of this game, 3 of my teammates (The Swain the Kaisa and the Bard ) were AFK, or at least were not moving. I politely informed the enemy team that we might have to Remake, since 3 of the people on my team were not connected.

Our JG, LeeSin said no we won't, so I assumed that meant he was playing with them, and they were having connection issues. So I figured I'd wait and see until the 3-minute mark.

Well, the 3 minute mark rolls around, and none but the Bard have reconnected by this point. So I figured we'd better remake anyways since the prompt came up for it. I initiated the remake, and the Lee Sin said No on the vote, as did the Bard, thus dooming us to a what was probably a sure Loss, since at this point, the enemy team have a great gold advantage as well as about 1/3 of the health of the Mid and Bot lane towers.

About 10 minutes in, each of the other 2 AFK team-mates connected, by which point their respective towers had already fallen, the Lee, Bard and I had fed a few kills (Since the enemy was able to roam the map with impunity) and they had gotten the first Dragon.

Well, I started thinking that maybe since they were on, we could turn things around. All we really did was delay the inevitable.

At the end of the game, the Swain had the gall to say I intentionally fed (I won't deny that I HAD given my enemy Tryndamere 2 kills, since I was getting 4 to 5 man-ganked up on Top Lane earlier in the game, while he and the others were AFK, but it certainly wasn't intentional) and that the enemy team should report me.

Oh, Someone got reported alright.

That's sad. I personally don't like to re-make because...ehem...I like to smoke a cig in the loading screen and like, if we remake...then I end up chain smoking another cig 4 minutes later...So I do try to avoid a remake...(If there's 1 person afk and they're my support, I'll let it go for a second and not ff) But if they don't show any movement or that they're going to reconnect I do remake bec I don't wanna lose...it depends for me.

I can understand your reasons.

I guess the main thing I was trying to get across here is that, with 3 team-mates (well, 2 when the Bard came back on just before the 3 minute mark) not in the game, Loss was a foregone conclusion.

Aside from just saying "No we won't" in regards to the Remake, the Lee Sin that I mention in the OP never elaborated on if he was playing with the AFK players or not, so in hindsight he very likely was not, and might have just been saying to to be cheeky. There was also the possibility that he was a troll, but considering that he, myself and the Bard tried our best after the Remake period had passed, I didn't consider him as such.

It just really irked me that this Swain, (and the Kai'Sa in part) who had AFKed the first half or so of the game, stated it was MY fault that we lost, in saying that I intentionally fed.
