Winning teams only contribute 2.5 points to pool party

The joke with pool party, which requires either teaming or spending real $ to earn points for the community is that you only contribute 2.5 points each time you play instead of 5. Why? Because if there is a group pool of points, and that pool increases by 5 after two teams play, then there had to be a loser and a winner of the match. In other words, you cannot increase the community pool by 10 points after a game, because that would mean both teams won. You are incapable of increasing the pool by 5 points without another team increasing the pool by 0.

Funny enough, the fastest way to earn points for the community would be for a team to surrender at 15m every game in an ARAM.

The flaw in this logic is that it assumes that every game is full premade vs. full premade, which isn't always the case. Especially in ARAM.

We're getting a free mystery champion and we got double IP during the entire week.

Stop acting like you were wronged somehow because their reward system was a little off. It comes off as really entitled and annoying.

You still give 5 points either way though, and it does say you have to win. It's fair enough.
