I think the servers need a period of time at the beginning of the game - maybe a minute or two, where everyone is invincible. It's unfair even if you suck to have to wait for another game to end, or even just the five minutes for a new one to start, and die within 1 minute of the new game and I have seen other servers do it for this reason.

An alternate to this suggestion is to only include the invincibility period outside the cornucopia area - that way, you go to the corn at your own risk as it's still a 'dangerous' area, and people don't have free safety while picking at the easily accessible good stuff.
whats the point of getting swords at corn then? the point of getting a sword at corn is to go on a massacre XD

This is supposed to be as "realistic" as possible (you can destroy leaves, but not dirt and stuff, as you couldn't do that in real life) so, in real life, there would be no grace period. Anyways, it's a terrible idea. 1 or 2 minutes? If it was ever implemented (not a good idea) it would only be 10 or 15 seconds.

I think the same! This is not like "Log onto this hunger games and get special kit for advantage, and 1 min grace period" this is fair for all! Everyone start with the same stuff! This is the REAL Minecraft Survival Games!

Everyone who thinks no grace period is better wrote "No grace!"

And to all of you who say that we need a grace period, the best that I think we could do withi ruining the games is have some special servers (2 or 3 of them) that have a grace period of about 30 seconds.

No no. In real life do you see some guy with a sword march up to a helpless tribute and just be like "nah you win this time preasent. Curse you invincibility!" no. It's just not life-like

What I mean is that it's more realistic than normal minecraft (destroy stone with your bare hands, chest logic, etc.) what I mean is that you could actually destroy chuncks of leaves, or a couplenf other things. And anyways, if this is supposed to be like the hunger games in the books, there was no grace period.
