  There are some who play here who have disabilities which make their games challenging.  To post a percentage of unfinished games presupposes that all players have the same level of internet access and encourages people to kick them out of games no matter the reason for those unfinished games.  I am disabled and have had 3 unfinished games due to medical circumstances beyond my control in the last month.  I have had my game ended because my internet provider stopped providing internet twice in the last month.  If WGT does not include any acceptable reasons someone might leave a game, then you are discriminating against people.  If a business does not provide access to me in the face of my disability it breaks federal law in this country (U.S.)  What recourse does WGT  give me or others who have legitimate reasons for unfinished games.  To discriminate against someone and to encourage others to do so is reprehensible.

  Actually it doesn't break federal law, Mechbook7. All the percentage does is give a player the opportunity to see what the chances are that the person he's choosing to play with will finish the game. It does not discriminate since it takes into account all incomplete games, intentional or otherwise. There is no discrimination whatsoever against the disabled because they are still providing you the same access and means to play the game they always have.
