The PZ Hunger Games Event.

So, an event where you would have your name into like a random selector of whom would like to be put into a custom built arena, possibly like the one from Hunger Games : Book One -

*This idea is just a side-on and more RP like*

Creative could host a reaping event beforehand to choose these participants therefore they can be known of this event.

Yet you can't die from dehydration.
There will be a sidebar, one for Health (The Health will depend on the weapon your enemy threw at you and will be represented in bars) also off the health, you will just have to have a glass bottle or water-bucket held in your hand to fill this bar up every drink will get your hydration up by 25%

As this is a server, probably we could pretend this was a Quarter Quell and twice the ammount of tributes are needed (48)

______________________________________________

This will not be normal survival games, this will be an event not a game in the lobby.
__________________________________________________
Cornucopia could be implemented but just having chests implemented into this would be better. Knives will be able to be thrown. The Map will have Beds scattered across the map in trees and in the floor.
__________________________________________________

This would be an amazing Twitch Stream to have multiple people recording all angles, yet any Tribute in the stream will be removed and another will be selected.

__________________________________________________
1.9 PvP Mechanics will be used as it seems more realistic and in real life you can't get combos so it's more

skill-full
__________________________________________________
Spectated Staff Members will be able to have fire spread in certain areas and smoke particles that minus 10HP each time, the fun of the Hunger Games is sponsors, yet we can't have that you can pull together items with PZ Coins, at the start of the game a simple meal of food will cost 1000 whereas when there are 24 or 12 tributes left in the arena that will cost up to 10000 PZ Coins,
__________________________________________________Everyone is enjoying the Hunger Games forum games so why not actually?

*LEAVE FEEDBACK*
 
Seen as this is an event it should be posted here.

But general feedback is that this is really interesting, but I’m still neutral as I still have a few unanswered questions.

• How would this work? I get the layout but how could you implement this. Is it a game mode? Is it a plot on creative? Like, I understand it’s not a physical game mode, but would it be implemented as a temporary one? I’m kinda lost there.
• What event would this correlate to? Summer, Easter, Etc?
• I personally don’t like the idea of having to spend coins in an event unless it’s for some form of extra perk, like kits in downgrade, can you explain how exactly this is necessary?
• I know this is an event, but 48 players is seriously ambitious. It may be fine the first few days of the event but it may die down and become quieter, specifically during weekdays. ( seen as holidays are all different world wide, when it comes to school and etc ) How could you assure this lack of contestants wouldn’t happen?

Yeah that’s pretty much it. Sincerest apologies for the poor grammar, I will attempt to improve it later on.

Temporarily in the Compass.

24 Players

Coins aren't necessary, just if we want to have an accurate version of the real thing coins are used, I'm sure people who only play Creative will be able to do it if they want. (You don't have to but you can if you want)

It would last until there is 1 Victor yet if it went over the course of 120 minutes it would end and the winners will be the people left.

 
Again, as stated above, this should go under event suggestions. I'll give some feedback anyway though.
  • What if people had to leave halfway through the game, this seems like something that would happen very frequently
  • This seems a lot like bringing a modified version of SG back- a game which barely anyone played while it was out. With proper attention and advertising, it could get a good amount of players for an event, however 24 or 48 players might be overboard
  • How many rounds of this hunger games would there be? If just one during the weekly stream, a lot of players would be upset that they didn't get to participate. But, then again, that will happen anytime an event like this takes place.
  • How would the reaping before the event work? Would people sign up in a hopper, and would be randomly selected by a staff member (if this is a stream event, probably a member of the stream team) - Would it have a set warp at the hopper? Would the plot be decorated, etc?
  • Would there be a way players could sign up for this event outside of creative? Many players may be on vacation for the reaping, or just never noticed because they don't go onto creative. A forum reaping would be a little better, and would also give the staff member picking randomly an ability to message the player instead of waiting until they got online.
Overall, this seems a bit complicated to code and run just for one or two games.

The Monthly Hunger Games, ?
It wouldn't be a plot yet a whole seperate portal / compass world with an arena with players able to spectate around whilst in spectator mode.
You would apply on the forums like IGN : Katniss
One round and if someone disconnected they would have a still NPC of their last location and if they haven't been killed by the time they reconnect they'll continue from the same point!
12 People?
 
I do like the idea but for some reasons like above I stay neutral and I won't give feedback eitther way because you are not listening to the people above to suggest it in the event ideas since it doesn't belong here and at a whole this seems really complicated and having to do all this will come in the way of the next three major events, summer, fall and winter which would add to the event team and adding on we'd need to have a texture pack for this to happen and many people don't prefer texture pack games since they can't handle it.

If you want it to get implemented please suggest in the event ideas.
And not all from the server have a forums account so keeping the sign ups on forums sounds unfair because few won't be able to come participate and enjoy.

I'll again restate that this should be in the event suggestions section.

It seems a little much to have this event every month, and it would quickly lose popularity. If the stream followed this game, it would be taking up 1/4th of the stream time, and in my opinion, seems like a bit of a waste. I feel this would lose popularity after around the second game, since everyone already knows what's going on. I doubt there would be enough participants to play after this went on for a while. Having it every month would also put a strain on the event team/staff to prepare for it every month, as it seems to be a big event. The devs also have much higher priorities.

Overall, this seems like a complicated event to code, and seems just like bringing an amplified version of Survival Games back for a short while. Having a texture pack, as stated above, would also reduce the amount of players playing it as some players do not wish to use texture packs as it lags their games. -1 from me.

Texture Pack? :) When did I mention a texture pack.

Strawberryy mentioned texture packs
 
Hello, and thank you for your suggestion. After consideration, the team has decided to not implement this suggestion. Namely because this would make a whole gamemode a monthly event, and isn't incredibly different to sg, which didn't go so well for the network last time it was implemented.
