Another person was out of time, still I am losing points?

How is that possible? I don't think that is correct...

Hi,
Thanks for playing on BGA.
In case a player leaves the game before the end, all other players are tie at first place, which in this case made you loose (very few) points because the third player was way weaker than you.
This is something we may improve ... however this is not a big amount of points.

It's not a big amount. But still. I'm losing points because someone else quit the game. It seems very unfair to me... It would say this is not something you may improve, but must improve. Imagine this happening 100 times.

Hi
I'm totally agree, it should change because it's unfair. Imagine if Cappie was 2000 elo, he could have lost "soooo much points" and at this time, we can't say "very few points", eapecially for 2000 elo, because it's really difficult to go up.
thanks for advance

"A few points" is not irrelevant. It is unfair that anyone should lose any points because another player abandoned a game. There are tons of problems with this newest system, and I wasn't even aware of this one. (Because I can't see my ELO, I wasn't aware of it. But it certainly wouldn't surprise me if it's happened, since most likely I've "tied" with someone lower than me.)
