more an idea then a question ....

think it would be great if the betagame would offer the option for players to negociate a draw in case of stalemate.
players would devide points even.
no more discussions over sidegames, +1 or going awol.
just call and reward it like it is
a draw

also;
as new player you learn the unwritten 'no diplo with 3 left' along the way.
would be great if in betagame the diplotab seases to excist when down to 3 and also all ongoing deals would be automaticly cancelled.

what do you think?

The points distributed to a winner depend on the ranks of the players - so it's not really possible to split the points. I guess you could call a draw --> no winner/loser and no points (provided that all players click that button).

fair point ... but
if 3 players left would decide to draw a 6 player game we could middle there combined rank. Say p1 = 2000 p2 = 2500 p3 = 1500 then middle=2000
then the win bonus is made up like its a 4playergame.
all 3 players get 33% as draw bonus.

problem solved

I don't think it's a good idea. It easily opens up possibilities for abuse (point farming). For example 3 players agree on a draw beforehand, and then gang up on player 4. Draws without any point redistribution should be ok.

I agree....I would prefer no points won...because there was no winner....so awol does solve that...a draw button that everyone left in the game can push in order to activate....but that requires more coding...at least there's the awol option right now....
