I only surrender when I know the game is done like dinner (e.g. we are down 15+ kills and they are knocking down the door at our Nexus). I find it is stupid to surrender when games are winnable. I do believe some people in the community just have poor judgment skills as to when a game is up in the air or completely a lost cause. Some people may have weak willpower and are too easily discouraged.

In addition, one of my biggest pet peeves in LoL is when my some of my allies don't want to surrender, and yet they make no true effort to fight for the victory. This irks the crap out of me. -_-

If you want to throw in the towel, then throw it. If you want to play on, then you should strive for the  W. It shouldn't have to entail a needlessly complicated reason as to why you surrender or not.
