WSG Rewards Broken if the Game Times Out?

WSG Rewards Broken if the Game Times Out?

So I've been unable to find anything on this here. Perhaps I've just missed it, but can anyone explain why this happens? Also the last post got ignored so I added a screenshot as proof.

:arrow: Screenshot

I queue up for a WSG at 39 and join as an alliance player. There are 3 alliance and 5 horde, which during off-peak hours seems normal for this bracket. The game starts and as soon as it does, the "not enough players: closing game in 5 minutes" message appears. We manage to bypass their team, get the flag, on the run back kill their EFC, and run the flag for a cap, making it 1-0 for the alliance team. This left us with about 45 seconds to spare. We hold up in the room for the duration of the fight, still with 3 total alliance players and defend it 'til time runs out. The scoreboard comes up, and boom. We lost. 1-0, game timed out, but we still lost. We each got about 50 less honor than the horde team did. I checked the honor sheet earnings and it was an accurate number at ~340 honor earned for the game. The horde earned over 400 for not even scoring.

I get that amount of honor isn't much, and this likely isn't a problem at max level due to population. But it would be nice if it didn't do this.

I've seen this happen probably 6 or 7 times now and finally decided to look into it because, since it's WSG weekend.

I'm guessing the other 2 got sent to your mailbox.

I can confirm this.

The token/honor rewards after winning in a time out game due to lack of players seems to be completely random. Sometimes I (horde) get 3 tokens, sometimes 1.
I'm not sure about losing, but that is always 1 or 0 (never 3).

And no, it's not that they have been sent to the mailbox. It's a bug.
