STOP Players from closing the app when they are about to lose

I was curious if anyone has figured out a way to not lose a match when the opponent is losing and is most likely going to lose, closes the app and as a result the match basically is frozen. when you go to refresh the app immediately it docs you 20 points. Has anyone else run into this problem?

    I've had that problem too. It has never docked me points if I close it, but it is still annoying. It might make it possible for you to win, but you have to wait forever for your opponent to time out.

    So that's what they were trying to do. I wondered why it took forever and I won. 😆 They quit. Got it now.

    oh so THATS what happened haha. I thought the game just froze on its own. Only had it happen once, tho; thanks for being good sports everyone 😁

    It's not due to a rage quit. It's the result of a glitch causing a desync which silently disconnected you from the server. If you just close the app, you lose the match.

    On a probably connected side note: what little I've seen on the phone app if screen goes black or is for some reason turned off even for just a second in some cases it seems to disconnect the person on the phone from the game. Some ip issue or desynchronization issue... disconnecting from a VPN does the same thing. IDK just annoying.
