Little servers

You know, there's just this slight issue with that. It's quite an intriguing suggestion, but, in this case, that one minor quirk makes the entire concept quite unacceptable. If I were to judge the idea and give a complete and full review, I would quite say that the issue is far beyond our reach. Unless you are able to locate the player-base that satisfies your concern, I fear that no change can occur.

 

Not many people are playing Hunger Games, by that I don't mean like it's abandoned. I mean that it takes more time to gather people. With less servers, there would be more people in each one, and it would take a VERY long time for the game to end. I think splitting it up would be nice, but I agree that the countdown needs some tweaking, the more the people the less the timer goes I suggest.

 

This is a good idea, and the timers are a bit long (though this was partially due to the fact a few hg servers were stuck today). It's just there isn't really the player base to support shorter timers. The timer currently serves to collect enough players in order to have a good, somewhat long game.

There could always be some tweaking to it though, like mentioned above. Maybe once the player count reaches a certain number the timer cuts down in size? That would require a bit of tweaking though.

 

I like this idea, it is a very good one.

I think that it would really help, especially with the sinking feeling you get if you are knocked out early on and the next gaem is 30 minutes away. It would also help if I am streaming as I can usually depend on about 6-8 people being in the server at the same time as me, watching (not including everyone that is watching), so it would help to keep things interesting and speed things up.

 

@Totom3 has significantly reduced startup time .

 

The reason for the little servers is due to the lack of players compared to when MC-HG was booming.
