    . In the scoreboard, change it so it only shows the team that's capping, not the actual player. Makes it harder to knock instantly.
    . Increase cap time to either 10 minutes or 15 minutes, this gives knockers a longer time to identify the capper and knock them.
    . Make the area around the koth flatter, this will be better for PvP.
    . Make the actual Koth structure larger than it currently is. I want more PvP on the actual Koth rather than around it.

    Some more
    • Add a timer (like the enderpearl cooldown) for the player that is capping.
    • If team cap gets removed then you have to be inside the koth area for a certain amount of time (e.g. 5 minutes) the amount of time that you have been there will be showed in a bar similar to the enderpearl cooldown one.

    Ehhh some ideas I like some are iffy.
    • Could see it being a thing, don't know if majority of players would like that, would definitely makes things interesting though.
    • 10/15 minutes is way too long, I think we had it 10 minutes before and that took hours to cap. The rewards weren't as good as they are now though, but still I don't think many players would find it worth to spends hours just to capture because of the 10 minute capture time. I could see it maybe happening if we added the first idea.
    • Iffy, there's already and area around the koth where you can't build or destroy blocks, that area can be used for PvP. Otherwise, I think the natural world around it is nice since it gives the survival feel and using the terrain to your advantage type thing *cough* Survival PvP *cough*.
    • I can see this being a thing, up to @Eil since he built the original KOTH structures, don't know how hard it would be to make it bigger since I'm terrible at building.'
    I think we could add both the name of the team and the one capturing though, it's not what you wanted to where it makes us guess who's capping but it'd be more of a minor thing to know what team is capping/which specific player.

    1. Timers are already shown right next to the player who is capping on the right side of the screen.
    2. You mean that, in order to start capping again, the player has to be waiting 5 minutes for the timer to restart?
    1. Teams with multiple players at the Koth would make knockers work even harder due to not knowing who is the player capping. Vanta/Meta have like 6 players on the Koth at the same time, that makes it a way more difficult for other contestants to try to cap.
    2. More than 10 minutes sounds pretty high in my opinion. The server tends to lag a bit whenever there is a Koth running, therefore, it will make it even longer the time necessary to cap.
    3. There are also different strategies some players use that are not necessarily PvP so a flat area surrounding the Koth wouldn't be fair for the knockers or players bowing from a distance.
    4. Agree, a larger structure would look better and it may also add new type of strategies

    No, I meant with team cap being removed, to get your reward you have to be in the koth area for 5 minutes (whiles the koth can be capped/is getting capped).

    I got the 10 minute idea from HCF, it's usually 15 minutes on HCF servers though. However I guess because koths are more frequent there, less people go.

    I agree on the last point as all our currents koths are really small in size.
