    I said this to awastedlife many a time, he said he'd read up on it again, but he has the memory of a goldfish...lol.
    I suggested making it a 30 min or so event on friday or monday, at around the same time events start, or if its busy

    May I suggest moving events to a more friendly time? Maybe fridays during the evening? 4-7?
    It might create more openings for other time zones.

    I like things that are simple.
    I wouldn't mind something like "Gladiator". Maybe everyone has chain armor and a stone axe ? Just a simple PVP fight out to the death. Of course the people's armor would be cleared when they left the arena.
    Another thing: Horse races.

    How about we bring back the Zombie Zurvival game and make it an event? I heard that it was pretty popular when it was up.

    Yeah that'd be great :) because 90% of Australians are either asleep, at school or work.
    And making it the weekend would even better :)

    We should, the event times seem more American friendly and this isn't an all American server.

    I tried to PM awasted about making the KOTL an official thing that was separate from events (Like, if there were a lot of people on, I could just strike up a game). I'd really enjoy running it, and I already have the rules and such for winning, as well as a timer to keep score :p

    Trying to find a time which suits everyone will never work. Currently they're at what, 5pm? That's 7am in (Eastern) Australia and around 11pm in Eastern Europe. Make it later to suit Aussie's? Now it's too late for Europe, and vice versa. This discussion started because thechooosen1 went to bed at 5am and missed the events. This is not a time zone problem.

    Events should also be at a peak server time, as the more the merrier. This happens to coincide with a nice time for Americans. If we can get enough people on during times which suit the rest of the world, I have no worries throwing a mini events.

    Back on topic.
    I'd like to see how we can expand on king of the hill. Perhaps dispensers firing fire charges and arrows? Multiple towers of varying heights, with different rewards up top and a better sniping position, etc.

    Again, i'd really like to do the king of the ladder thing, and multiple "courses" would be really cool!

    Like what I may suggest we do, like what I intend to do with the Steam Meetups at some point, is run a smaller secondary events time which suits some of our more international players a bit more.

    Oh I had this idea during events.

    The floor is Lava: So make a house sort of deal or at least build it to where they can hop from furniture to furniture trying to get out of a place with lava. Have it to where the exit is on the roof so as the game progress the lava "rises" So if they don't get to the next floor within time limit they die. The winner is last person alive or first one out.

    Oh and for time, why not saturday night american? The rest of the world will either be saturday or sunday comparatively.

    At least no one will be kept away because work or school well at least most normal work and school circumstances. At least at that point they just gotta get here in time within their schedule.

    One thing about the time, I have archery every Sunday at five, so events won't work for me. Then again, I'm ONE person.

    Dodgeball! Each L represents land and each A represents air and an unsurvivable fall.

    Two teams have to knock the opposing side of their ledge with snowballs the remaining players on the winning team get a diamond or something.
