Mercy rule?

Can a mercy rule be added to DB so if a team is winning by 6 goals at any time, the game is ended?

yeah but imagine this scenario.

the opposition is full of people with clan tags

your team has 3 guys called 'Baller' and one called 'Player'. Their concept of boosting involves trying to kill their own keeper. And their idea of passing involves overcharged shots into outerspace. I won't even mention the really useful method of holding down 'Pass to me' when receiving a pass.

There you are all alone in goal (not that you spawned there of course) being assaulted by volleys left, right and centre while the rest of your team is standing on the opposite side of the map blinking like a row of fairy lights.

You explain to them the concept of 'defence' and even hope some of the opposition have the guts to switch sides.

Of course none of this works. So what do you do?

You say, "omg wtf n00bs!" followed by a disconnect or a switch to the winning team.

You ask if someone will please even out teams (skillwise) (I usually try my best to do so tbh), if that doesn't work: leave.

No fun anyway :<

Form a Clan and call them AoV , sounds pretty much like our usual tactics

A question. It's kind of related I promise.

When a map is over and the next map loads in are the team randomized? Or is it a case of if a player has chosen a prefered team (in settings) that they always join that team?

If that is the case is it possible to completely remove this choice and this might cause the teams for the next map to happen randomly.

Or maybe some kind of randomise teams command for use by admins. Don't know how this would work and it might not be very good anyway. Just thinking aloud
