Using the pattern
A Possibility of Graceful Surrender is typically added to a game to let players handle situations where they feel they cannot win Last Man Standing competitions or where they perceive a Predictable Winner. An alternative reason is to allow for Drop-In/Drop-Out by combining Possibility of Graceful Surrender with Late Arriving Players. The exact ways of letting a player leave a game without disturbing other players gameplay experience or game balance depends heavily on the specific of each game, but avoiding Kingmaker effects is a primary concern. Balancing Effects may be used to compensate for imbalanced that may occur when a player leave a game so this may help support a game to have a Possibility of Graceful Surrender.
Consequences
A Possibility of Graceful Surrender is a form of Surrendering and leave a game with Early Leaving Players. In this way it can let player that consider themselves having no chance to win to quit competing in Last Man Standing challenges or when they perceive there is a Predictable Winner.
