@dSKyNafinchin I like lightening rod too. if it's along flight to get there I'll try and use 2 cannon jumps on the islands east side.
I posted about why it is important to consider boxing or abandoning games in another thread. I also should just say walking away from your game after boxing is another important way to keep your sanity.
If your team drops in a dumb place and you happened to go with them, and you get wrecked, send a message and leave while your game is running. I usually post something like, "I'm bored and leaving." Which is, of course, completely true. It helps people not pick up your box sometimes, which might prevent them from getting killed sooner. I mean, if they dropped bad, they're probably bad so good luck with that. Still.
You can advance in higher ranks, given how completely dumb the scoring system is, with a team of 2 better than a team of 3 sometimes. Because, weirdly, when people only have 2 on their team and no loss prevention, they actually play better. I'm not saying they're going to win you the match, but by being non-morons, there is a better chance, often, that they end up in top 4. So if you care, and you are boxed, steering your team mates away could actually improve your score, the way people play.
