Today I was playing Puerto Rico with 3 other players when suddenly one of them offline and about to run out of time. I was checking his reputation to see if this guy often do this. Much to my surprise, I saw an announcement "Our service is having an issue right now.
Note: all reputation penalties received for leaving games will be cancelled." When I returned to the game, I found out that I was the only one online. Feeling bad if I have to kick this player (even though no penalty will be given due to server issue), I choose to abandon the game collectively. But the other 2 cannot vote because they too are offline. There should be an automatic vote yes to abandone the game if they are offline. I think it is more polite than have to kick one of them.
