[GP] Increase to 12 Players

[max is gr8]

Yeah, 9 was troublesome too. There was a reason for it, though that's been suggested too.

make colour 9 = black

[Aalmeida17]

i think is not good idea will be so unfair like 3 guys standart games

[TeeGee]

It really would be more like the 3 team doubles games that are currently played and has much less of a chance of being "teamed" up on than standard games

[WPBRJ]

love the idea

i always thought there should be 12 player games this way you can do up to 6 dbls teams 4 trip teams and 3 quad teams

[AndyDufresne]

An update we have slated for 2010 might have an impact on games of slightly larger size. But that will have to come first I believe before we can seriously entertain any games of slightly larger size.

Concise description:

Allow 9 players for triples games only

Specifics:

You can start 9 player triples games but not 9 player any other type of games.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

It would definitely make for fun games. I really like my partners for triples games, but I'm kind of tired of facing off against just one team. This would bring the fun dynamic of three and four team doubles games to triples games. I'm pretty sure most of the maps would support it as they all have a minimum of 16 territories, though maps with 8 starting points are obviously out. (Might be an incentive to make Feudal Odyssey )

[natty dread]

Why not just increase the max. amount of players to 10? Then you could have 3 team trips and 5 team doubles...

As for colours of the extra 2 players, brown and indigo would be good.

[army of nobunaga]

I like this , I have a feeling it has been suggested a few times before.

I even like the Idea of having a Handicap match where there are 4 teams of 2. .. and one lone guy

[Industrial Helix]

Handicap would be pretty cool as well... though this is more about 9 person triples.

[2dimes]

12 for the dreaded 4 teams of 4. or 6 player teams. muhahahaha.

[fumandomuerte]

I support the 3 triples idea (9 players).

[2dimes]

It has been sugested it would it take a bunch of coding to do.


Concise description:

• add a couple more options to the max # of players allowed

Specifics:

• I'd like to see 12 and it works with all the current game types, 12 singles, 6 doubles teams, 4 triples teams, 3 quad teams.
• increments would be fine.
• 9
• 10
• send me money
• Here's 12 distinct colours with different letters for "add color codes"
  red r
  green g
  blue b
  yellow y
  pink p
  cyan c
  orange o
  silver s
  maroon m
  lime l
  violet v
  drab d

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

You can do more than two team triples and quad games.
Might make some cool tourneys also.

[AAFitz]

Hopefully, its just a matter of time.

Might have to see 10 first though

[Thomassaurus]

If they did this some maps wouldn't work for this like feudal, but its a good idea. Maybe 10, 12 might be over doing it.

Have to delete where it says delete!!!
But back on topic, I think it would be a good idea, but only for larger maps. Imagine fitting twelve different players on a map like Doodle Earth.

[jrh_cardinal]

would def have to group maps
AOR's and Feudal War already can only have 6
Feudal Epic, maybe a couple others are made for a max of 8
Doodle Earth, 12 people, shoot myself in the face (same for Lux. and sort of Madagascar)

But for larger maps (Hive, World 2.1, Charleston, etc.) this would be a good idea
the mods will definitely do this sometime, or at least up it to 10, idk if there is a way to get them to do it faster (that's what she said)

[TheForgivenOne]

8 players already don't work on the original Fuedal...



And it would be hard to get 12 distinguishable colours

red
green
blue
yellow
pink
cyan
orange
grey
black
purple
burgundy
lime green

There 12 unique colors.

[maasman]

Black and blue, gray and purple and pretty close there. Find 2 more colors (at least for me) and you would be good to go maybe brighten blue and purple.

some sort of gay purple-pink hybrid
puke green
a better looking grey
tan
salmon

[TheForgivenOne]

I like Salmon

[Army of GOD]

1. White

2. (Invisible)

[lurkerleader]

also you would have to consider colour codes - I definitely read the starting letter of each colour to be certain who is where.

r, g, b, y, o, s, c, p

are already in use, you would need colours that don't start with these letters
