Just a Small Pvp Suggestion

Not sure what the 'guidelines' are, but I'll try to explain.
Basically, I think some people would be benefited by the addition of a 'surrender' option in Pvp's. I think Rulis mentioned this in social once, but when you're attacked while doing patrols/arena, and you're not gonna win, it would save time and energy to just surrender the fight, instead of waiting to be killed. One particular instance just happened. I just logged on, did like 3 patrols, and got attacked by Cpt. Lynch. If I had full pools, I probably could've beaten him, and that would've been fine. I don't mind losing, but when the person fighting you is obviously weaker, and you can't fight back because of low pools, it's frustrating to just hit refresh and watch as you're wittled down to 0 health.
So basically, it helps for people who don't like pvp's, know they can't win a battle, or just don't want to be bothered with fighting at the moment. Maybe to compensate the winner by default, give them a bit more money or an extra S.P./F.P.?

Good idea, except for... I believe that if someone doesn't like pvp, they shouldn't be on a game that is based mostly around pvp.
Also, if you just walk out of your barracks and get attacked, it is your own fault. Find a way to get around being attacked, run to a far location, then run again. Every time you leave your barracks, or travel to Kyoto, you are taking your own risk to get into a pvp.

Yeah and a lot of people level moves through PvP so it would hurt them if you just surrendered.

Downside: Opponent sometimes levels moves through PvP of a person with no pools, and can take away some of the fun of PvP for the stronger players

Upside: *example* Lulu attacks me when I am simply hanging around Kyoto. I wouldn't wanna waste time or pools in a futile battle. *example* Lyonin attacks me when I just finished patrols. Can't fight back, no pools.
Would help those who are empty of pools or outrageously overwhelmed.

Not a bad idea, but while it could help improve game play, it could also hinder it.
