    Since there is no cost involved in starting a game with another player, and the fact that the winner earn some MGP, a forfeit button in a Player VS Player TT game could be easily exploitable.
    Plus, if you remove the MGP in case of a forfeited game, the looser can easily deny a potential well-deserved victory from the winner by pressing the button just before losing.

    So, in case of Player VS Player games, the forfeit button would need quite a bunch of restrictions. Either a number of uses per day, or a removal of the forfeit button after a set number of turns, a MGP penalty for the player to forfeit, etc.

    I don't think it's terribly exploitable since you can already throw the game if someone is just looking to give away or get quick, free points.

    Not really exploitable. There's a cap to the amount of MGP you can earn by winning against other players, so at worst it means you reach the cap a little bit sooner.

    They thought about this sort of thing in advance, so there's really no reason why there shouldn't be a means to concede a match.

    Oh, really?
    To be honest, I didn't try to do a lot of Player VS Player games since I wanted the Bahamut card from the king. I only did the 5 first wins to get the MGP bonus against another human player, then I saw that the winning prize was down to 25 MGP, so I stopped there.

    But if you say that, after a few games, this 25 MGP winning prize goes away and let a net 0 MGP per game, then, indeed a forfeit button will not be exploitable.
