Not being funny, but we lose too much for dying.

[Venkin]

Losing so many points when you die is the point. That's the challenge. If a player is maintaining thousands of points you know they are really good because even though they lose hundreds of points per death, they still kill enough players to maintain their current points.

In the end, do points really matter anyway? Most of the time I get a high amount of points I sponsor them so I don't get targeted for them.

I agree, same with me.. but not atm want to get the "fbi's most wantet" achievement

Change the title to: I am being funny but we don't loose too much for dying xP

That is a perfect loss count, it makes it harder for players to get higher points, try losing 200 every time you die, been there. Points don't matter, wins do. The points will not be changed, it was changed with MCSG v2

Points don't matter they're just a number right?

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT THAT WINS ARE ALSO A NUMBER..?

Wins matter more than points.

Wins matter more than points.

Elaborate please. Wins mean what? A number of games you've won. Points mean what? A rough idea of how long you can win without losing an maintain a good W/L

Anyway, something matters more than wins and points..

Can you guess it?

Do you know?

WEEEEL

It's having fun!

Fun > Points/Wins

If we make the curve easier and more extensive it won't change anything, player's will just have higher bounty. It'll just increase the average, and this will still be an issue for you, even though you have a "higher" number, other player's will too. It's a very hard thing to explain, but if you get it you'll realise the suggestion is a little bit illogical.

I remember back in the day, you'd only lose about 2.5% of your points, with a miminum of 5. I don't know what the current calculation is, but you didn't have a problem losing too many points unless it was above 1000.

Protip: Don't lose. Otherwise, deal with it, or sponsor your points away. I feel like having less points is my good luck charm.

Fun > Points/Wins

I agree with that statement completely. This post goes to the entire community, not just one individual. How about instead of complaining all the time, we enjoy what we have.

I remember back in the golden age, I would always complain about having the world's crappiest computer, therefore it was near impossible to win. Looking back on it though, I wish I could have enjoyed those days more. I wish I would have just shut up, and enjoyed the moment, instead of raging at the fact that every time I die is because I freeze while fighting someone. At some point later on in our lives, we will hate ourselves, for not enjoying the moment, because one day, at some given point in our lives, we would wish we were there, enjoying what was meant to be fun. But that would not happen, because we had spent too much time in that moment, pointing out the faults. This doesn't just go for MCSG either, this can apply anywhere.

It is about fun. That's what we're here for right? We joined MCSG, to have a fun Minecraft hunger games experience. We need to get passed those stupid points, and meaningless wins, and just have fun. When you look back on your years, would you rather say you enjoyed the experience, and had fun with it; or would you rather say, you were up until 3-4am non stop trying to rack in as many wins as possible, nearly everyday! Of course, it is perfectly fine to have a little competition here, it can be very fun battling for wins. What I'm saying though, is that you shouldn't really take it to such extremes, that you forget the fun, and only care about the wins/points.

I am not saying that you shouldn't be competitive, and shouldn't complain, but taking it to the extremes, is where it is wrong. This post is not at all aimed at the creator of this thread, it is aimed at the general survival games community.
