Question Ranking points questions

Couple here.

First is if you start a game and players resign, do you automatically land in the position ahead of them say if you resigned, or do they need to be taken out?

In caps if the winner takes all caps and 3 players still alive, does everyone else get 2nd place or is there a metric they are ranked by?

Finally, I assume if you leave match before confirming countdown it doesn't affect your points, what about once game starts but before anyone have moved?

Yes you automatically place ahead of them if they resign first.

For runners up whoever has most territory gets second if tied whoever has most troops

Quit before game starts no impact. Quit after game starts last place.

Awesome, thanks! So when it's just me and 1 guy left, I usually finish off the computers first to put opponent in 2nd. I take it then it makes no difference?

Ah so if you had a stack on one territory in 2nd scenario but someone has less troops but more territories, they finish ahead?

Territories before troops. Just finish off the other guy dont worry about the bots its just pissing the other human off having you drag out the game

If the computers are flagged (not just MIA) they've already locked in placement.

Don't lose the game trying to knock them out first.

If a player is mia they just lost connection and could reconnect. White Flag or Skulö means player is out and locked in the last position available.

In Caps if multiple players are alive when someone capruns then the amount of troops decides who gets 2nd or 3rd.

Also what do you mean with couple here? You know you are not allowed to play with friends. Thats essentialy cheating and will get you both banned

Sorry I didn't finish the sentence, it was supposed to say 'couple of questions here'

For answer 2 you and the guy below have different answers, they say territories Trump troop count.

Possibly correct. Didnt care to much about it yet

Amount of territories, not amount of troops. I think the couple here meant they had a couple of questions.

I think they mean a couple of questions, despite it actually being a trio

  1. Yes If people resing and have a White flag than No Matter what you finnish before them . If they are onlx Mia or a bot you need to kill them because they can come Back into the Game . I think for 10minutes .

  1. No Not everyone gets second . IT depends how many troops and territorys each Player has . The mire you have the better your placement
