| INFO:There has been a lot of talk about having all the Minecrafters of the GAC together for the Hunger games. However no-one has made a topic about it yet, so I thought I would just to shift things along. Talvox has volunteered to host the server @75.162.69.219:25566 So we need: - A list of people who want to take part.
- Someone to host the server.
- Someone to control the games. (This role can be rotated so everyone gets a chance to play)
- A set time that we are (mostly) all available.
MAPS:http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/the-survival-games/ http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/the-survival-games-2-848118/ We could alternate between the two maps here. So... any tributes?

| I volunteer as tribute.
And we all remember how it ended last time someone said that...
BTW, we need to play on the first map, not the second. Trust me, the second one isn't as fun to play on as it looks, I've spent a lot of time on both. We could, however, trade off between the two if we play multiple rounds. I suppose it's more about the people you're playing with rather than the map.
Also, perhaps some links to the maps on Planet Minecraft would be in order, so people know what map we're using. | |

| I'd agree that the first map by Vareide is more fun, but it will be worthwhile playing both maps. I'll add them to the OP then. | |

| I'm in. I have heard whispers that there's another Survival Games map in the works, which would be a good way to level the playing field, but I have no idea what the ETA on it is. | |

| Also, I'd be willing to control the games for a round or two, provided it's the second map. I'll never pass up an opportunity to play the first map. @Delta, there's a non-Variede-made SG map made by iMalo, however I've only ever played it on Skitscape's Public Server, and my first impressions weren't the greatest. I would definitely love to see another SG map from Variede. EDIT: Where did you hear these whisperings? | |

| Hey Eps, are you going to try and fill all 24 slots, or is that just so we know the limit? Because honestly I think it's slightly more fun with somewhere closer to 12 people.
Also my computer won't lag as much. | |

Also my computer won't lag as much. 24 tributes will be the aim and the limit. It doesn't matter a great deal, but if we can find a server host that can hold 24 people, we may as well have as many people as possible. | |

| I'll head in. Sounds fun. Perhaps my dad could host the server, we've got two servers running at the moment, one survival, the other creative and survival. I say we use the creative/survival server, add a whitelist so people don't interrupt the games, and perhaps we could turn off mobs so there won't be as much terrain damage so it won't be a pain to fix it all.

| Count in OogaShmooga! That is, by the way, my minecraft name. We have some talented map makers here; does anyone else think it might be more fun on a map nobody except the maker had seen before? | |

| Blasphemy Talvox! Mobs have always been an essential part of Minecraft survival! Is your Dad's server good enough to run 24 people without lag? If so, it looks like you'll be hosting! That's a nice idea NOX, but realistically, making a new map will take far too long. Nox and 'Vox, you're both added to the list! | |

Having mobs on is kinda important to the whole dynamic of the thing. A plugin that makes it so creepers can't destroy blocks would be more useful. However, a plugin that makes it so players can't destroy blocks is not a good idea. We need dat mushroom soup somehow! - -NOX- wrote:

That would certainly be interesting. Not all that disimilar to when I watched Tala fail at my Towers of Aesmora beta map. OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER... | |

| Well, perhaps the plugin idea might work. Except we can't have the map running all the time, the other citizens of my server will want to come on the current world of the server which has a whole bunch of things in it. I think we should remove mobs for it. I'd rather not have the world blown up by creepers. Going bukkit would allow plugins, except we wouldn't be able to play that world on a normal server anymore. I'll get back to you guys later on this. | |

Ehm, as I said, mobs are central to the Survival Games. If you absolutely must remove a mob, remove creepers, but it's best when you've got the plugin I mentioned before. Besides, this world getting blown up by creepers really doesn't matter as much as your normal world. And I don't think we were expecting you to have the server running all the time, just for a few games. EDIT: What timeframe were we considering this? Today or a few weeks in the future? EDIT2: Just remembered that variede said mobs were optional, but I've only ever played with mobs being on. Heck, whatever works for you, I suppose. | |

| Today would work, we would just need a while to set up the map and make a whitelist. Speaking of which... I need the usernames of all the players who will get on. | |

| Mobs are additional hazards, therefore, they make things better. I'm thinking that this should take part in July-ish. People will be on holiday then. Specific times will vary with timezones and how busy people are. | |

| Well, we could do a small match later today, just for fun, and to test the maps. | |
