Let me get this straight. Is quitting out of a game (which will be shown as DNF) registered as a loss?
I've been on a 45 for about 10 games and I still haven't leveled up. I've place in the top 3 and only times I have not place in the top three I quit out. This should save my rank from degrading, right?
I have often seen people quit out and I guessed it was to preserve there rank from registering a loss.
Or am I completely wrong about quitting.

Thanks, it's in LW btw.

Quitting registers you as last place behind any player that finished.

Yes it does on the score board, but does it actually effect the rank system?

I'm not making excuses. I never claimed to be good. I have never played any colonel better than me though.

You can still rank up as long as you win, at least in TS.

All it took was a stew of whoopass.

Yes, quitting a game counts as a loss for you.

So why do I see so many people quitting at the last seconds of the game? Whats in it for them if them to quit even after the winner has hit 25 kills?

people are stupid.
Probably. It's just bothering me now. Do they think that it will count as not a loss?

That sounds like a possibility too. I wouldve thought there would not be a exp pelenty in LW. I'll have to check next time I quit. Thanks for replying!

Or they beleive that having less exp will help you rank up.

Thanks. Ya maybe that too. I'll have to test this out when I quit.
