I was happy to get booted, we were not going to win, the more of our team that left the quicker the game would end /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> It was kinda weird, like the opposite of a boot-resign, some 4 or 5 of us getting booted so that future resign votes would definitely fail rather than possibly fail, lol.
Also, nothing personal.
Gee gandalfs 2nd game in as many weeks where hes not a good sportsman. I am well and truly shocked to hear this

SRM took over XT, XT is now a branch office of the sub-division known as SarrrrrrhhhM... you can tell we assigned this new sub-division a piratical theme, keeping in mind the larceny and cabin-boyishness of the old XT, you can see an early view of the changes in theme by looking at Ozzy's new avatar - also with the more cute and fuzzy concept and piratical theme. The unveiling with the new name will take place in TwoWeeksâ„¢.

Heh, the shiftiest thing to do in this situation is to spam draws and throw a resign in. Folks will stop reading and just keep pressing Y. Complete!

Of course spamming draws and resigns gets you a ban from an admin, but at least the comm won't boot you.

Regarding abstains, some people remap 'n' and don't realize where their 'vote no' key has gone. (Backspace on the one in the academy guide).
Spamming resigns is crappy, unfortunately it almost always works. Personally I think that posting one against the comm's wishes is really rude.
There are a couple comms who use #resign to get the team to rally. I've seen at least two big comebacks from that.

#resign should be a commander option only. Anyone else who doesn't want to play anymore can just quit the team as they probably aren't going to help or be useful anyway.
