Results

Since i started playing i have always hosted my own games and about 1 in 4 games got elfed by a leaf lover. That is 25%.

i have tested in 50+ (and counting) games to Ctrl + v the message always when someone has joined my game and i can by the time of writing this only remember 1 time that someone has called the drop pod early. That is <2%.
