Hi, the average stay last 20 games did change some time ago.
I think the explanation is quite simple. The average stay is calculated by (sum of total game lengths)/(sum of stay time in these games). This means a stay in a long game counts more and a leave in a long game hurts more than in shorter games.
But we would need to see the numbers to know what happened.
12 games ago there was a game with left reason "was automatically dropped after 60 seconds", 16, 17 and 19 games ago there is a "lagged out (dropped by vote)".
Your stay % last 20 games should increase when you get these games out of the 20 games window. The first one ("19") will fall out after your next 2 games. And after 5 games you got rid of all "lagged out (dropped by vote)" games.
EDIT: Here are your last 20 games. The first one is the last game you've played. The green one will fall out after two more games.
