Players who miss 1 turn need to loose entire games max points. No excuses. That way we can make games that would eliminate serial deadbeaters.

Mabey if someone misses a turn their account automatically gets put on auto-play.....

Yes, we could have the autoplay trigger be global.
So if a player misses too many turns, for a game, all their games go auto until they successfully submit a turn of their own for any game.
It would be account wide, rather than game specific.
How does that sound?

It sounds better than matts suggestion. Almost every single non-serial deadbeater has missed a turn here and there, matt and myself included. I'm not opposed to ranking penalties for deadbeating but missing 1 turn is not only way over the top it's technically not even a deadbeating until they miss 2.

Remember the point is to punish the people who chronically miss turns, not someone who gets home late from work or has their internet come down during a big storm. and is forced to miss a one off.

I think they should be eliminated from said game after they miss the 2nd turn, their territories go neutral and they are placed last w/ zero points. End of story. They will soon stop that annoying behavior.

Can we please put this subject to bed. You have been harping on it for almost 5 years now, seriously, find a new pet peave, pleaaese......anything but this. Thank you.

Serial deadbeaters??, Really?? Class A Felony??
