Extend the resign button to all trench games.
Specifics/Details:
Currently you can only have a resign button if the game you are playing is a trench game and a speed game ( and 1vs1 or poly).
I think it is time we extend the resign button to 24h trench game as well.
So far, since the resign button have been implemented, not one C&A case have been opened because of this button. And to my knowledge no one complained publicly about the resign button. I therefore consider it is a success, and it should be extended to other settings.
Also, I think we should include 2vs2, 3vs3 and 4vs4 games to the games that can be resigned.
EDIT :
Concerning team games :
If a resign button was implemented for team games ( trench ) the resignation should be effective only if ALL members of the team click on the resign button.
Just in case someone comes here and tell me it could be an issue with people resigning games they are winning : if someone wants to lose a game he does NOT need a resign button to lose, he can do it by himself already, a resign button does not change anything to that.
How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
Trench games are games that can reach a point where both players ( teams) know that the game is over but there is still many turns to be played before the end of the game. Allowing trench players to resign when it is obvious that a victory is impossible will improve the satisfaction of the people playing trench, will avoid that players deadbeat or that they become bored playing many turns in a already decided games.
EDIT :
"Accept button" ( accepting opponent's resignation )
The purpose of this suggestion is primarily to extend the resign button from trench speed game to other settings namely 24 trench speed games ( 1vs1; poly, and maybe teams).
As can be read below it has been suggested to make the resign button more acceptable by everyone that once a player resigned, this must be accepted by his opponent, so that a player that wish to play the game till the end cannot be prevented to do so.
Please also discuss the possibility to modify the current resign system so that the opponent of the resigning player get the possibility to refuse or accept the resignation.[/spoiler]
The admin is approving following suggestion ( still to be discussed here) :
Extension of the resign feature from speed game to casual game.
Previous restrictions still apply, i.e. :
- 2 Player games only ( 1vs1 and poly)
- Round must be 10 or higher for the resign button to appear in 1vs1
- Round must be 6 or higher for the resign button to appear in polymorphic games
- Must be Trench
Additional restrictions :
- For non-tournament games only, de facto excluding all clan games as well
- The resigning player must have less than half the army count of their opponent.
Note : For now, the accept button discussed in the "original" suggestion will not be considered, mainly because it may create as many problem as it solves.
