Nonparticipation by Players.

here's my recent take on it:

But i would like to see the non-participating players being dealt with after games, not during. It sorta messes up the whole experience a bit. Not that i'm complaining about this game, just from now on i'd rather see warnings/bannings issued instead of players killed off. but i do think permanent bannings from the game would be a little harsh. after 3 warnings i think a 3-game suspension should be given.

at the end of the day, non participants hurt the game in real time, not post-game. When I had something come up and could not play one game, I looked for a replacement and also kept the game host notified. Out of respect to the rest of the players, I owed that to them as well as to the game. It was I who signed up. My arm was not twisted to play.

Too many look at the recent non-participation as not being fair to "the villagers" or "team wolf" or blah blah. When in fact, the game itself should be looked at and a non participant is not showing respect to the game and players.

QFT

I didn't care about which team the non participant was on, I just get so frustrated with players that sign up and do not participate.

Also, some seem to be given every consideration (and the game is over and they are still non compliant) and others hastily removed.

It always seems to be the same players over and over, game after game. If you can't make EVERY VOTE, don't sign up to play.

I want to thank both IWP and Q for their hosting duties and trying to keep the game going.

I don't know what this will do to the game in the future. I am signed up for Bfett's game and I want to play bunny's game but I take the game seriously and don't want to play with people that don't.

I thought it was a great way for them to get back in the game if they wish.

To be honest, I see it like this......

If the person has a history of not even showing up to play most of the time, what makes you think that person will even show up on a daily basis to host a game?

I'm just thinking it would just be a waste of time because it will be likely another game fucked up, which will be more aggravating to players.
