Goko Quit %
« on: February 27, 2014, 10:24:54 am »

I've noticed that some people use a players quit % as a factor to decide if that potential opponent is worth a game.  I'd just like to point out that Goko marks it as a 'quit' when you leave a game against only bots.  I have a relatively high (6%) quit percentage because of this. The vast majority of my quits are from bots.  This is because when you play bots, the biggest advantage is speed of play.  When I know I lost, it was faster to just refresh the browser to move onto the next game.  I didn't know those quits were being tracked to be used against me!

When I first started playing multiplayer, coming from exclusively playing vs bots, I had a quit percentage at around 12% and I was kicked from many games.  Because of this, I believe quit % is a very poor factor for sizing up a potential opponent.

Also, if anyone here has played against me, my tablet doesn't allow me type in-game.  So allow me to say gg now.   Thanks.

Yeah, most of my % quit is from Goko quitting on me (browser crashes etc.) so I don't put much stock in it.

Just resign instead of quitting and your quit % won't be affected.

I thought if you resign, Goko said it counted as a quit on your %age?

Also, this should be in Dominion Online subforum :)

resign counts as quit if its a 3+ player game, it doesn't in a 2player game

I don't think I've ever kicked someone for quit%, just because its an awful measure.

I get a lot games hanging or not starting and I've no idea how those are measured by Goko.
