Hi
I am thinking it's likely impossible to figure out why someone quits. That's where the problem lies.

I don't think it's fair that system errors and idle loading,
should be considered in that overall percentage,
system should somehow "tell" if you disconnected after
loading was completed and no errors had occurred,
this of course don't and can't include things like
power outage, ISP problems, etc,
but it should include anything that is caused by the wgt system,
to prevent the player from continuing to play the game,
otherwise, you'll see people getting upset, because let's face it
WGT still is far from perfect, and we still hear about daily loading issues,
and system errors that cut games short.
if you can have a check system that "knows" a disconnection
was made although loading completed perfectly and the shot is set to go,
then, we have a winner.
another less complicated option would be to use the resume option,
in the normal stroke play as well as alt/match play,
with maybe a reduced waiting time, say 3 minutes,
forcing users to hit the "I quit" button at the lobby.
I also think it'd be nice to have a graceful WD option,
because sometimes ppl do need to stop the game for various reasons,
it can be like the concede shot button, if all the players vote "allow WD",
the player won't have that disconnection from the game added to his 'quitting' stats.
just some thoughts & ideas for you to chew on, good luck.
