Well, nothing. :-) But it is annoying to to get when somebody stops playing (or never starts) and then beats you because people don't bother to attack surrendered players. I just finished a game where a guy who never played a turn finished third (ahead of my fourth).
I think that if somebody surrenders (or is auto-surrendered for being away for 3 turns), they should be considered "out" for ranking purposes at that point. |

I could also go mow the lawn or watch some paint dry, which would be almost as fun. I know you're happy sitting off in a corner waiting to finish second without doing any thing (I've seen you do it) but I don't think most other people are. |

at 1:10 AM, Sunday December 10, 2006 EST IMO, getting extra dice on eliminating someone, would wreak havoc in the opening rounds, when players would try to frantically eliminate others for those extra precious dice.
More players are likely to die before their first or second turns, and then we'll have another torrent of complaints about early elimination. I actually like the way it is right now. It makes for more interesting play. |
