  Not to worry, WGT is changing that. In the next update that # will turn into a color bar. Then you won't see if you're 100% or something less unless it gets low enough to change that color bar. Each bar will represent a range of #s. :-)

  Even if you feel it's not your fault it's necessary to realize that the % on your account is not for you. It's for your prospective opponent. It tells him/her how often your games finish for ANY reason.

  If the disconnect is WGTs fault then everyone playing will have a similar % of reduction. You surely can't think they are singling you out.

  If it is a problem with your end somehow (due to your browser, ISP connection, equipment, etc.) your opponents deserve to know what the probability is that your game will be completed. The % is not a number designed to reflect only quitting. It takes into account much more than that to properly reflect your game completion rate.

  I too never Quit a game but my % has been going from 100 % - 87 % because of disconnections and WGT site going down during a game.

  This unluckily changes the neutral number to a judging system:

  - green: good guy, make friends.

  - yellow: so-and-so guy, take care.

  - red: bad guy, avoid!!

   

  We still have no notice that this "culprits" of disconnections will be isolated. Until then, the innocents will equally be hit with the "culprits".

  They are also changing the rolling sample of rounds to 100. This will make the occasional "I got screwed" disconnect less impacting. That and the range each color will encompass will make this a moot point. They're getting it right.
