Poll: Do you switch to the winning side?

[Chrissyluky]

simple question do you switch to the winning side(ie team) in games? how far are you willing to go to get on the winning team? and explain why you do or dont switch. i personally stick to my original team unless its unbalanced then i wait for a scramble of some sort to even it out and stick with my new team. so if im teamswapped ill probably wait till i can get back on my old team regardless of how theyre doing.

Any other context? What games? What teams?

 

[Neonbob]

No.
I'm a stubborn guy.
Even if I'm the only person, I usually stick around to the end.

any game and i already said what team the winning team.

I'd only swap if my (losing) team is no longer fun. Winning/losing doesn't matter to me as long as I have fun doing it. If they're being sore losers, sure I might swap (or quit). I'm more prone to jump to the losing side now that I know the other team's strategy.

My team is always the losing team. I firmly believe I am cursed. The team I join will inevitably lose, no matter how high their chances of winning were prior to my joining.

I never switch teams I always just play. In fact I like being on the losing teams as its an extra challenge and if you win eventually you get a greater feeling of accomplishment.

 

[quiet_samurai]

No, because I'm stubborn. And one there's one thing the winning team never has, and that's the chance to go out in a blaze of glory!

In sports, the team I'm on wins without fail.

Even though I suck at sports.

So no, I don't need to.

 

[ConnorCool]

I have a vague sense of team, whether I really connect with them or not. unless it becomes really stupid, and the team start making playing no fun

 

[Hazy]

Never. I stick by my comrades, til the end. That goes for both gaming, and real life events.
*Awaits the obligatory "SPARTANS, TONIGHT WE DINE IN HELL!" comment.*

If you were playing baseball or football or basketball, would you switch teams because your team was losing?

Then why would you do it in video games unless you were a completely worthless sack of human garbage? I swear, sometimes gamers bring outsider scorn on themselves and wonder why.

Exactly, plus if you somehow manage to win despite the odds, the victory is all the better. Not to mention, it's always fun to pretend to be like outnumbered/outgunned spartans.

Well seeing as how i have been on loosing teams in the past i don't switch. If the team starts loosing bad enough the stupid people switch over and leave me all alone. And i rack up the kills.

I've gone 1 on 8 in a match of Halo 3 and beat the other team by 3x the kills. I alone kicked their ass so bad. Loosing team mates only makes it harder for the other team to rack up kills. So i never switch, its just stupid.

 

[Chrissyluky]

I like to do well on the losing team, make me feel big man nw!

being the top scorer on the losing team is like being the smartest kid with down syndrome

 

[Spygon]

i stick with my side through thick and thin.If you swap sides you cant take losing as no one can always win and you will never get any better

 

[NeutralDrow]

Any other context? What games? What teams?

any game and i already said what team the winning team.

That is singularly unhelpful.

 

[azurawolf]

If Im on a team, I will stay until the last person falls. I am stubborn like that and I am always convinced that I will win.
