I've been in way too many games where very viable positions are abandoned when the pressure is put on. For me at least it destroys a lot of the enjoyment of the game if the winner is determined because somebody's early neighbor quit when his pretender died or he just got frustrated by a stalemate or he just got bored. Have this happen 3 or 4 times in a game and it starts feeling like we're playing a game primarily of chance which I don't personally find that interesting.
