Not for the player who AFK Forfeited.

The other player will have the game processed as normal - assuming they also didn't AFK Forfeit (for Placement Round forfeits).

Fabulous. Thank you. :)

Thank you SO much Krin, amazing job with eve thing take a break and eat some ice cream because ice cream is yum!

I also agree with adding a battle preset!

Looks good, thx

(Yeah the free price for a match that didnt even actually start after placement round was weird.....)

thank you Krin, for all your hard work^^

I think this is a good and fair way to handle the problem. But may I also suggest to take PvP off of next year's task list? Many people don't like playing against other people, but for a Fabled essence, they do play. People may just start games and move pieces around not caring to compete in the game. Which will frustrate true players.

I like that idea, I typically use a specific setup every time, and win pretty consistently

Thank you so much for the change! For those of us not that into Snow Wars, it can be a bit painful of a crawl for completing tasks.

It's a tough thing to weigh. The concern is that there just isn't enough players in total to even make Ranked Player matches possible without such an incentive. So the incentive is there so that there is at least a decent amount of players in the pool so that those who are looking to do it aren't spending 2 hours in queue before getting a match.

It also helps to boost awareness that it's there and to hopefully get players to at least try it and see if they like it at all.

I just fear that if the Task incentive is removed, then there'd probably be so few players actively trying to play that the feature as a whole would be unplayable because nobody wants to sit in queue for 30+ minutes finding each match.
