Hanabi : All or Nothing mode

We like to play All or Nothing with Hanabi: either complete all the stacks, or not. The idea of "scoring points" in a collaborative game when half-finished is a bit silly anyway.

Problem is that we HAVE to finish the game, even if we are "already dead" (i.e. have played both white 4's). So we leave the game (I play with friends only anyway, so walking away is always in harmony) and get angry e-mails and discount points from the system.

Would be nice to have an "all or nothing" mode added to the game.

If you play with friends only, why not use Abandon feature for this purpose? As far as I know - no points nor emails are being sent after abandoned game.
(If elo off, ofc. Abandoning a game with elo on whenever you failed is kinda cheating about your abilities anyway.)

If you are turning elo on you could just bomb the game out (when you are playing with your friends only). It only take 3 moves to end it :p
