Sometimes when a game start in Arena mode a player doesn't play in time and the game ends.
The player who is removed from the game obviously loose elo and arena points but sometimes (i guess when all other players are in a lesser ranking than me) i loose Arena points too. I think this is not fair and everybody, except the player who didnt play, should keep his original points.

it is ESPECIALLY completely and totally illogical to confuse expulsion of a game and loss of arena ranking points! there are KARMA points for that ...

I create games all day long and I often have to wait 30 min before being able to play ... it can happen to forget that we asked for the opening of a table when it's been 30 min that we wait ... at after a while, attention may loosen ...
and it is enough that a player expels you, so after 2 min of waiting ONLY, so that you lose not only karma, elo, but also arena points.

I'm really very upset about it!

and I'm also very upset with the players who do that. you can very well abandon a game, especially if it has not started. this is what I do when I am faced with this situation, because I have a minimum of savvy and I understand that it is not a voluntary action of the player ...

I'm very unhappy and I say it ... I'm tired of losing arena ranking points about that.

so either everyone must accept to start the game, or the game is automatically canceled if a player does not play his turn while the game only begins. or stop making us lose arena ranking points because of that.

I may be a little direct there but I'm really fed up with it.
