The WZ servers crashed 2 times today so far.

The 2nd time was during a CW slot (https://www.warzone.com/Clans/War?ID=66&Timeslot=9740), resulting in several people getting booted.

Every single time the WZ servers crash and then get fixed (not sure if thats some fancy recovery process, a reboot, or just the server process being moved to a new instance automatically), a lot of players end up booting.

Assuming WZ can at least detect when it comes back online after a crash, would it be reasonable to just VTE all RT games instead of randomly booting players from the games until only 1 remains (who then wins by default)?

Either that, or voiding any such boots from the statistic automatically. Iirc, this has been requested before with Fizzer stating a technical reason why this would be difficult to do.

Assume 2 armies meet in a field.
they are locked in man to man fighting
both sides might win

than a meteorite appears in the skies
with an enormous boom it crashes right on the battle field

smoke-dust-nobody can see more than 3 inches
eventually the dust settles, the sky becomes visible again
we scan the battle field and discover both armies got a devastating blow and suffered many many casualties


In such a scenario the army that wins is a matter of sheer luck.
Warzone reflects this perfectly.

No change needed.

Another option (which I don't know whether possible or not) is freezing the clocks of all games for the duration of server crash or during similar instances.
That would allow players to come back after server crash and keep playing.

Seasonal Rules on season end sounds reasonable on both players being booted.
VTE is great longterm

The UzayAltray's idea would be great, but I think Fizzer should at least make the vote.

Seasonal Rules on season end sounds reasonable on both players being booted.

Ah yeah, I didn't consider that option yet.

That would be a great way to prevent the issues you would get in games where VTE isn't possible (CW, QM, other things were a rating is involved).

Let's do that so !

And another advantage of using the Seasonal Ladder's algorithm: you cannot abuse it, as you can't predict when the servers will crash. So no issues with certain players winning certain games by abusing the knowledge of both the algorithm and the date it would run (Season 15 https://www.warzone.com/MultiPlayer?GameID=6700185)
