Kudos & Demerits

Okay, here's a possible solution for all those deadbeats who join games then never play, leaving us waiting.

You have two ratings: Kudos and Demerits.

At the end of a game, you can give one Kudo to each player you feel deserves Kudos. God, I hate the word "Kudos". Remember those chocolate covered granola bars by the same name?

At ANY time in a game AFTER a given player has missed at least one turn, you may give one and only one Demerit to that player. If everyone else in the game gives the same player a Demerit, that player is immediatly kicked and their armies become neutral armies that do not move and only defend.

Games can be set so that you must have a sufficiently high Kudo rating or low Demerit rating to join (or an acceptable ratio of K:D).

This idea must be tweaked, but that is the essence of it.

this is basically a kick button which has been regularly rejected simply because it can lead to abuse. 2 people can gang up on the strong person and just kick them from the game. also as for the kudos and demerit thing u just gd or bad feedback. u don't really need a rating system. in essence this is a kick button which would b great but u can't guarantee it will b used properly.
