Ran into my first intentional freezer

Hit a solo shot to open the scoring. No biggie right?
IBB, IBB, sets defense at second to pickoff play, goes into wind-up and immediately freezes the game. After the first IBB I could tell what was up and started to record.
I really hope SDS is banning these guys. Forget the gameplay, any competitive online DD mode is not worth it because of the toxicity of the players.

Also I find it comical you can't post the gamertags of these guys. We should be able to out these idiots.

Look at how many wins he has when trailing.

I'm in the middle of a freeze off right now.. this has been happening A LOT to me lately. This is getting ridiculous and SDS needs to figure out a way to deal with this because it's becoming unplayable. Guy is down 6 runs to 0 in the 2nd.. Requests friendly quit, I of course don't give it to him.. Freeze off.

Not to mention if you look at the game log for those games he wins e while trailing they usually end like this:
Opponent batting.
HR.
IBB.
IBB.Then the game magically ends after intentionally walking 2 guys with nobody on. Strange......

Its actually insane that freezeoffs are arguably more of a thing in 2021 than they were in 2014.

No doubt in my mind this is part and parcel of "e-sports" becoming a way to earn a living. People take this way too seriously because they think they'll be able to make a living playing video games. This guy for example if you google him you see he tried a hand a steaming years back.

I got banned for 30 days last year for it. First time offender, gone!

Gotta send the runners when you see them doing this.
At this point we might as well all freeze games, there doesn't seem to be any consequences

Look through his game logs and it's pretty obvious. He constantly IBBs two first two batters after a HR. Most of the time the game ends there, but he didn't always get the win (I outwaited him for instance). A few occasions it doesn't work and the game continued.
Do I need to post the YouTube videos showing how it's done or will you continue to stick your head in the sand?
-
Looked at his game log, it doesn't work every time, but he certainly is trying it almost every time he is losing and immediately after he has surrendered a HR. Definitely a POS move. Best you can do is report him and move on. Sorry this happened to you man.

This is sad that it's still happening. I forget who it was that posted the video on how to do it and forced SDS into doing something and still they can't fix it. Pretty sad that this is something that has been going on all year and every year and it seems they just don't care. I would say report it but I very very highly doubt anything will get done.
To the guy who said we should all do it, I agree. Make it an even bigger problem than it already is so thwy are forced to do something. I doubt they will because sadly they are either lazy or don't care about it or cannot figure out how to stop it which is sad considering how long it has been going on.

Just wait until the summer circuit starts. It will be nothing but freeze off central. It will take months to finish based on who’s willing to wait it out the longest.
