What do you do when an enemy team loses solely...

[quote=Satella]I was playing a normal with two of my buddies earlier today and we initially did poorly, being slightly behind in CS and kills as well as giving up a dragon and our third blue spawn due to our bot lane being caught out of position. Things looked grim. Unfortunately for the enemy team, their [[Twisted Fate]] disconnected 16 minutes into the game, and our team began winning engagements and pushing down turrets due to the numbers advantage. 24-26 minutes into the game we took mid inhibitor and secured Baron. At this point we knew that we won the game, but everyone knows that it's only because their mid went AFK. I start a surrender vote and my friends vote "yes", but then the two randoms decline. When prompted why, their response was this: [quote] [color=#00ff00]Lulu:[/color] I want the IP :/ [color=#00ff00]Ezreal:[/color] yea I want this win [/quote] [center][img=http://i.qkme.me/3un3wl.jpg][/center] I was dumbfounded. My friends and I decide to just sit at nexus turret for the rest of the game to punish them for this, but alas, the [[Ezreal]] was so fed that he still managed to win 2v4, and their nexus blew up anyway. I'm fairly sure we got double reported by the randoms for "assisting enemy team". Was trying to surrender the right thing to do? Should I have just taken the win to "even things out" because other teams never surrendered when I had an AFK on my team? What would you have done in this situation? I'd love to hear your thoughts on this topic.[/quote]

[quote=Lugignaf]"All's fair in love and war." Basically, you take the advantages you can get. Sure it's not exactly a clean win, but it's a win. In ranked, you take everything you can get, obviously. There's always the chance you can screw up, and the 4v5 can win, as well as there being a chance the AFK/DC can come back. Ergo, don't surrender those 4v5 scenarios, unless you're super behind on the 4 side.[/quote]

[quote=Kaggboer2012]if somebody on MY team was afk i would surrender :P but honestly i dont care about some random guy that i dont even know, and most of the time when the enemy team has an afk they cry like little babies so i dont really want them to win ^^[/quote]

[quote=Ninja Trigger]If it's normal who cares, but ranked take the win, but yeah I have won lots of games due to an afk, and I have lost games due to an afk, and it sucks both ways. but like Lugignaf said "All's fair in love and war" on a side note I have won lot's of 4v5's so they could have still turned it around. but yeah who cares about 20 IP, most people just care about getting their win count higher[/quote]

[quote=A Chubby Baby]You report them.[/quote]

[quote=DisturbedFox]you win the game and report the guy(s) who went AFK, simple as that.[/quote]

[quote=Lies]It's a random game; various circumstances are bound to happen. You can almost compare that incident to a successful back-door; dirty yet effective. And to give TF some justice, I'm sure he doesn't want to AFK. I mean, who in their right minds would do that if their own team is doing fairly well? Perhaps due to a crappy connection, he can't go back and play.[/quote]

[quote=Nera]Not only a crappy connection it could be a family emergency? imagine you are a at home parent or something of the sort and your get gets sicks at school and they call you up to come pick him/her up? are you honestly gonna wait for your game to be done? I usually don't report them for that simple reason, we don't know what going on on their side of things. emergency,crappy internet you name it. it happens im sure no one wants to quit on purpose. Just my thoughts on this subject.[/quote]

[quote=Alcasea]i agree, leaving the game or AFKing even before a match start: instant report BUT if they prove them self that they are strong and left the game around 20mins then who am i to report them ? things happen and honestly i hate AFKers but we should also think about what had happened to them side note: ph server or garena server to be exact was technically "monopolized" by one isp so any other player from a diff isp has either crappy connection or super extreme lag. there are many afkers here but not because they wanted too.[/quote]

[quote=recnib]Here's what you do, take the win but be polite about it, apologise for their misfortunate situation and only push down one lane. However, unless you know that the person went AFK intentionally, DO NOT report them.[/quote]
