Users intentionally dropping from h2h after top 3 are shown

i have had two different users use some sort of unethical method of dropping their connection the instant that the top 3 players are displayed just prior to kickoff in h2h.

if they see my 3 99’s they immediately disconnect...

when this happens, I get bounced back to the h2h menu and the game “does not count” and I do not get credit for a win even though they hopped off.

i am also thinking that this technique is preserving any streak that the naughty user is in the middle of - since it is not giving me an automatic win.

its obviously being used intentionally.  EA needs to fix this loophole and penalize the offenders.  

One user did it to me twice yesterday and this happened by a different user a week or two ago.

Has this happened to you??

if you quit before kickoff, nobody gets a win or loss. Been in the game forever.

 Must be Vick, OBJ and AB. 😁

Same thing has happened to me....how is it done though?  If you know how to do it, I say do it all damn day. EA's not going to fix anything about this until everyone is doing it.

Has happened to me a few times, also happened today.

I beat someone in house rules, then got paired against about 2 games later, and they just quit straight after the 3 cards appeared.

Annoying thing was not only didnt i get the win for them disconnecting, but I had to wait 3 minutes to play again lol.

yeah it happens, if they quit before kickoff they take the loss and no win for you.  probably just over matched and they just want to move on.

Had this at least 12 times yesterday. I guess they saw a couple of my higher ranked guys and said "forget it".

Game never loaded and I ended up having to force quit the Madden app after about 5 minutes of that. Not sure how far it let my account into the game but it did count it as a loss.

 this happens to me too. happened twice last night. I've never had people dc after showing the top 3 though.
