Game cancelled, but where are my points?

Why don't I get any points when a game gets cancelled because somebody left while the game was loading? I mean, it literally says on the screen that I escaped. I should at least get a couple thousand points, just for having had to sit there twidling my thumbs while I wait to get sent to the results screen.

    No one gets bloodpoints for a match that never started, even if you load in and do a sixth of a gen or a totem before the game figures it out and tosses everyone.

    Yeah, I know. But that just shouldn't happen in my opinion. I've just spent several minutes queueing and loading in. They could at least give me a few points.

    They’d much rather address the reasons why people don’t connect to matches rather than providing bp and I think it’s the right thing to do.

    Well, what reasons are there? The on screen message implies that somebody decided to disconnect during loading. Is that not the case? I don't think I've ever been kicked from a game during loading...

    Well if you want they could always go back to having 3 or 2 people in a game and not kick everyone out. Not like you'd get much anyway since it's 3v1 but points!

    Tbh I think each player that didn't disconnect getting some BP would be a nice thing. It sucks having to wait through everything just for the game to be canceled. Maybe like 5k BP.

    Of course I wouldn't want that. But I also don't want to waste my time queueing, then waiting in the lobby, then the load time (which always seems to drag on for a few minutes longer when a game is going to cancel), all for nothing.

    I might only have time for one more game, and I've just spent five minutes of my time waiting for a game that didn't even load. Now I've got to go through all that again...
