    @cameron1010 and I are making the new gather system,and for now,all the system will count is wins and losses,because I think wins and losses is all that matter,but if the players want to know their kills/deaths later,we might do it.

    I don't like wins/losses either. That's even worse to track, as now anytime a team gets backed up to their base, everyone will scream "OH NO WE'RE GONNA LOSE BETTER LEAVE SO IT DOESN'T GET PERMANENTLY STUCK ON MY LOSS RECORD". People already leave due to not wanting to lose, this'll just exacerbate that problem even more.

    And if you don't understand what that means, it means that anytime you get backed up to the base, a bunch of people will leave, teams will be imbalanced, and you'll be pretty much guaranteed to lose.

    Again, I refer to the Classic Gather system where abandoning a match was also recorded. In that system abandoning more than a few matches meant you were barred from future Gater matches. While I don't think that exact system could be applied here I suspect that something similar. For example, leaving the losing side of a match within some (5?) minutes before the end --or manually swapping to the winning team within the same time period-- could lead to you scoring a "coward" point (yes, there would be the occasional false positive, but if someone's making a habit of it then it'd quickly show on their record that they're a shallow winwhore who bails at the first sign of trouble).

    This is why we have a sub system, and if you leave x matches before it ends, you can't join anymore.
