This game has been suspended as the three remaining players requested a draw.

Do we get 20 tokens for this?

No, you don't get any for as far as I know. The game should also not count to the total games played.

I can understand that penalty when applied to the three player who decided to request a draw.
Seems a little harsh on the five other players who were eliminated earlier in the gamne.

In most cases, players that are eliminated early would rather have not lost points rather than tokens.

So, the reason why you don't get tokens here is not because I think you shouldn't. It's because that's the easiest way to program this ;)

Ending a game is actually not the same thing as finishing a game - an 'ended' game is more like a paused game, it can be continued again etc. So how to give away tokens here fairly is quite hard to do.

I understand the confusion GriffinUcos; in fact, this sounds like something that could've happened to me, along with the thoughts and the creation of a topic :roll:
What Matty wrote sounds completely sensible to me - it's just a 'feature' - it's not a penalty.
As you're currently rocking a premium membership, you shouldn't really have any issues with tokens... (just join a bunch of (LT) games?), but to rather be safe than sorry, I just sent a couple tokens to you :)
