Points incentive for quicker wins

Concise description:
  • I suggest that points lost by losing players and the points gained by the winning players be dependent on the number of rounds taken to win.

Specifics/Details:
  • To reward quicker wins, I suggest a multiplicative factor in determining the points lost and points gained. The multiplicative factor would be higher for quicker wins.
  • How the multiplicative factor varies with the round number could be different for different map sizes and for different number of players.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • Presently, many games get bogged down in long stalemates. While there is an option of round-limited games, I believe the incentive of gaining more points would lead to quicker and more interesting games.

Hi usidyr,
sorry but it seems like a very bad idea, for many reasons (but im soooo lazy).
think twice and i'm sure you will see it makes no sense. Maybe you only play certain maps/settings where it could make sense... (but again im too lazy to check your games :) ).

Have a nice day.
And i'll get some rest.
