Totally true. The only logical solution is to have the system give the advantage to the majority; because if the majority is at a disadvantage, they would be pissed and not play. Is it fair to the rest of the players? Not really. But nothing is ever going to be fair since we're all on different connections. Tyranny of the majority is the only solution!
