Hey Folks!
We've had hunger games in open testing for a while now.
I'll be working to polish the server up over the next few weeks.
I'd like to get any feedback you all have of your experience on hunger games.
In particular what you like, don't like.
What you want to see more or less of.
Any changes you think would be cool and why.
I'll kick this off with an example. (Though it holds true for me)
I think the feast is a bit soon and promotes very black and white tactics. You either try and kill everyone at the start or try and run away, get armoured up and get to the feast.
Given the feast is around when people are starting to get to full iron, I'd like to see it pushed back by around 10 mins to promote a wider variety of play.
Do you keep searching and hope to get diamond or do you begin hunting people...
And so on.
Remember, not everything suggested and discussed will make it in, but this is the best place for your feedback to be heard.
Thanks!

Sir might i say, Sorry for interrpting, But no ones on The hunger games right now.
its geting a bit boring waiting here if i must say.
Could some of you play The wo hunger games with me? Write me back.
Jefferson E lego.
Umm sir i tryed rejoining the main sever, but i keep respawning at the hunger games. how would i get to the main sever?
I know the staff are pretty set on this style of hunger games, but talking to mamy members, we mostly would like the other more survival gamez type of game. This is the one where you spawn in a circle with chests in the middle, and you run around the map looking for chests.
I truly believe this would make World of Minecraft HG much more popular.

@Jefferson use /lobby
We could use some command like /votestart , instead of waiting 3 minutes to see that there aren't enough players.
Thanks for the feedback so far.
@ Liquid Lightning The terrain generation is one of the things i'll work on, aiming to significantly reduce or eliminate spawning in the ocean.
What kind of classes would you like to see ?
Some classes are easy to code, some are very hard. what sort of things do you have in mind?
@ mgslymen I'm open to trying out an initial bounty of chests. If you're talking to people about this ask them to post here. It's a lot easier for us to see how many people want a feature when they all post instead of one of you relaying information.
@Jasper /votestart purely to avoid the not enough players message ? or to provide an early way to start the game too?
I can implement a list command fairly easily to check the numbers of people.
I've always found that the starting time before a game is a good time to quickly scout out the area and plan your game.
How do you guys feel about diamond spawning?
I like that it spawns because it's hard to find and gives an advantage to players who aggressively mine.
When there, I can't dig or get wood or anything. All I have is this one lousy feather! Then again, I'm more of a smp player but will give it another go.

Thats because you don't know how the Hunger Games server actually works :P
Yeah probably.
Perhaps start out with a few classes for our dearly departed staff along the lines of
LumberJak: Starts with a stone axe and 4 oak logs
Lunick: Starts with a pre-tamed wolf that has a Pokemon name
and so forth.
Also, maybe there could be some sort of a points system to earn more powerful classes (even though I'm not having much luck thinking of any right now.) Points could be based on something like Amount of time alive, Players killed, Games won, etc. Not sure how hard it would be to code, but it's an idea.
It is possible to implement buying additional classes.
Is that something anyone else is interested in ? =]
Maybe we could earn "HUB Points"
Like how we used to get stuff from the mob arena.
We could use this and trade it in for better classes or SMP money or CMP claim blocks.
This would promote the other not quite as popular(yet) servers like hg and cmp.
Just a thought but seems like a valoid idea to me.
I like the hub points idea, it would encourage players to use more than one feature of the servers.
UPDATE
Hey folks, Sorry, It's taken a little longer than I thought to get going on this,
Made some initial changes and updates.
The server is not integrated with our banning system.
You can now message people who are not in the hunger games server from the hunger games server. (Remember to include their full name in the message)
Some permissions have been setup to allow for further configuration changes.
Hunger games has been updated to the latest version.
Unfortunately this has reset a few of the configs so the initial invincible timer is a little longer.
I'll be changing this back down and working on a few other changes soon.
There will likely be a small nerf to the ghost kit and a small buff to the creeper kit.
Please let me know if anything is not working as it should.
More soon =]

I think it would be nice to have some more classes for a larger variety of opponents when you fight, and also it would be nice if when you spawned into a game you weren't 200 blocks off shore. :)
