    I understand that the point of everyone dying at 40 minutes in a hg game is so the server can restart and be open with a countdown at 20 minutes. However, barely anyone joins before the timer for the next game gets to 10 minutes, since most people would just join the nosoup or do something else. So I was thinking that the game time limit should be changed to 50 minutes, because 40 minutes usually isn't long enough to finish off final fights and hunt everyone down.

    I think 10 mins after feast starts the pit should start. Then, people would get supplies or head to feast.

    I think right now the time is OK, it's just that there's not real ending sequence at the moment nor warning that the game is about to end. However, an extra 10 minutes would be really nice and slightly more fair towards traps/towers, so it's harder for players to just wait out the "pit".

    They just need a warning like
    "Game ends in 10 min!"

    I think the problem with increasing the game size to 50 minutes would be longer lobby wait times. From my assumption, that extra 10 minutes at the end of the game would add an extra 10 minutes to waiting times (because you have to wait longer for the server to restart). At the moment I don't think this should be implemented, mainly because of the limited servers and the importance of having timed games. If perhaps more servers are purchased then I would reconsider implementing larger times.

    Actually it would shorten it by 10 minutes, because the extra 10 minutes of the game replaces the first 10 minutes of joining
