The Floor Is Lava!
As many of you know, the game of 'the floor is lava', is coming back. So, I think it would be a good idea to implement a new party game-type: The Floor is Lava!
Here's how it would work:
It would be similar to 'Block Party', where there is music and you run around and when the music stops, you have to find the correct colour block to avoid dying. However, for 'The Floor is Lava', we would run around an arena and there could be a commander (such as gigosaurus, an admin, etc), and they would type in chat, 'THE FLOOR IS LAVA!' FIND THE CORRECT COLOUR BLOCK TO LIVE!', and then he/she would countdown from 5. There would be 5 - 10 blocks (depending on how many players are alive), and you would have to get on that block to live. Example: Five Players left and there are four blocks left. Whoever doesn't get a block, would die and before a spectator.
Avoiding Cheaters
To avoid people just standing on the block, making sure they survive, you could spawn the correct blocks to stand on once the commander says the floor is lava. Also, flying should be impossible unless you're a spectator.

How long would this game last?
Around 5 - 10 minutes.

Time to spice up the game!
To make the game a big tricky, you might have to do parkour to get to a block to survive, and maybe there could be power-ups, where if you get one, you could have speed (limited time), extra life, or the ability to sabotage another player. For example, if you gain the ability to sabotage another player, you could give them slowness, nausea, or blindness.
Prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd
For prizes, possibly 1st place could get 150 party coins, 2nd could get 125 party poins, and 3rd could get 100 party coins.
Sabotage
When 3 players are left, they could be given knockback weapons to try and hit other players near the lava, and far away the the 'safe blocks' once they arrive.


I think would be a great game for MCPZ!

So basically, musical chairs, being combined with a game that is mimicking Other existent mini-games of both the seasonal and permanent variety on multiple large servers.
 
How long would this game last? Can players attack each other? How many coins will the winner receive? How many players per game?
In my opinion, this would be more interesting if players had to climb up onto structures to avoid the lava, and as stages pass the amount of time for each stage will decrease, making it more difficult - and it could be more interesting if at a certain stage you can attack other players, trying to hit them into the lava etc.
Your suggestion is basically another game on a competing network with slight alterations, what would make this game original and unlike the others?

I really like the idea but this same idea was put permanently into Grian's Server. I think this idea would work best in PZ if there were unique features added to it.

I agree. This game would be more interesting if there were different objects where the players could jump on instead of it being a flat surface. And maybe when there's two-three players left, they're allowed to hit other players? In my opinion, that's a good amount of people for PvP to be enabled. I really do love this idea though. Good job hut <3
