Less players in games???

[Mr_Barcode]

Hello everyone, I'd like to introduce a topic that I've recently noticed when playing MCSG. It seems almost every single game I get in is not completely full. Like less than a year ago, it was hard for me to get into a game, and now it seems there is hardly anyone in any games. Just 30 minutes ago I joined a game that ended only having 5 players and I won because I got a stone sword off of spawn. Is this happening to anyone else? Is it the time of year? Just thought I'd throw that out there.

I would prefer games start with 12 players like it used to be. It isn't the time of year, btw. More people are playing now that it is summer. It's more likely that you're not playing at peak time or you join a lobby when the timer is almost at 0, so the game starts if there's enough people.

With dynamic servers, players don't look for games with 16 other players. They click the one with 3. This causes full 24-man games to decrease in popularity. I wish they were all handled like 48-man games: 12 people to start.
