Guild Wars 2

Whats the point of the “volunteer” button in Snowball Mayhem?

I thought it would work similarly to pvp, where if you volunteer, it gives you credit for the victory, since you started on the winning team. I was just playing a round where 3 of the opposing team left once we got a 200-0 lead, but after volunteering, it counted that I lost.

Whats the point of the volunteer button then? If this is what they were going for, wouldn’t it just make more sense to autobalance without any player input?

The volunteer button doesn’t and has never worked in any team activities (SM, Keg Brawl, Dragonball, etc.) Guessing it’s never going to be a priority to fix.
