Connection loss = losing???? https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=26764.msg340094#msg340094

so i'm sure that i'm not the only one that HATES losing just because the connection was lost.
does anyone else think that we should change that? in one day i've lost about 240 score because of the constant connection failures.

just posting this to see if anyone else has this problem and that it should be fixed, or that it's just me and i have to deal with it.

sometimes I lose cause my connection is bad.
Sometimes I win cause my opponent loses his connection with the server.

C'est la vie, I say.

i have very good connection. it's the game server that has the connection problems.

the topic was about making it to where you don't lose if the connection has problems, not about getting a better connection.

If score is as important as you believe, then making anything but getting a win condition losing (the status quo) is the best option. Back when I was in the states, I never lost a match from "connection problems", so I don't think it's the server's fault. In addition, if you could intentionally play AI in pvp by purposefully losing connection, then that would be a terrible exploit, so assuming "you've lost until you've won" is better than assuming "you've won until you've lost."
