Unfair ELO Reduction Before Match Participation

Players are losing ELO points even when they leave the room before spawning into the match. The system appears to count the match as participated immediately after joining the room, despite no actual gameplay involvement.

This creates an unfair penalty for players who:

1. leave before the match starts,
2. fail to load into the game,
3. disconnect before spawning
4. or accidentally join and exit.

A player should not lose ranking points without active participation in the match.

Expected Behavior:
ELO point should only be affected after a player has actively participated in the match, such as:

1. spawning into the game,
2. remaining in the match for a minimum duration
3. or performing gameplay actions.

Leaving before spawn or before the match officially begins should not reduce ranking points.

TESTED in TDM Matches.

Hello, for the next update we will overhaul the elo system completely, as it currently has a couple of issues and isn't completely fair or balanced.
