Vote Deathmatch

[Raeson]

You know, during a match it usually gets too long when only 3-5 people are left.
So a suggestion, when there are 5 or less people left people should be able to vote deathmatch.

no offense intended at all but this topic has been covered a lot already. Chad has even posted a poll asking for the communities opinion on the matter. They are currently deciding whether or not to implement the idea, since it has both pros and cons.
PROS:

• reduces game time which makes people happy
• encourgaes people to move around searching for people to kill to keep the spectators entertained

CONS:

• as soon as the requirements for a DM are met, it would instantly be voted for almost unanimously making an unfair experience for those who are still alive

I'm sure theres more but thats all i can remember atm ^_^

Maybe a maximum population for a vote deathmatch? Something like only 3 or 4 people left, and maybe it has to be unanimous or near unanimous.

Or if not starting the vote for the DM, if it is passes the remaning players have 5 mins to get the items they need or things they need to do before DM is started.

This shouldn't be added, because those who capture the cornucopia will be ready and prepared for the deathmatch, while those who are scraping along for an iron sword and such will be begging for more time to prepare. The person outside the corn might actually have a chance if they have enough time.

True, although the pink house in SG2 and the boat in SG1 kinda invalidate this.

Not at all really because you dont get diamonds or anything really good at the boat or FreeFall's house....

Again, little places like that and time keep the underdogs in the race, but they don't make the underdogs better than those who capture the cornucopia.

Yea "Keeps them in the race" doesnt mean they will win.

Easy way to do that is after the 2nd Night, just so that rounds aren't over 40 minutes.

i'm honestly fine with waiting almost the whole hour, because i love spectating others as it allows me to see more of the map and its sometimes exciting to watch how they play the round. DM's are the most boring thing to watch atm because its always 2 guys who've most likely just been in a fight so are weakened already. By forcing a DM you will have many more players still alive and makes for much more entertaining ends (eg: inthelittlewood's video of his stream last friday night, 4 people in leather vs 1 in iron w/ diamond sword... inthelittlewood wins wearing leather)
