    This is just day 6. Not everyone is insane like the Insanity Team. :) We can still take them down! ;)

    Way to go to all the teams though! This month has been a lot of fun, regardless of score.

    Not to worry, bizarr0; Team Solo isn't exactly burning up the track either. :)

    Might be interesting to see the number of players in each team, for comparison.

    8 here. My first time playing MC on a team ever. :) It's been good.

    But.. like Elle I find it a bit stressful. I think I should've gone a bit slower, taken my time, focused on one thing at a time. But I gotta build wheat farm, oh wait we don't have a slime farm yet, I should rly find some kelp...!

    Possible improvements:
    - Chat. It's probably a lot of work and so much work has already gone into this round that I'd hate to ask for more. That said, team channels would really help.
    - Team Score. Not sure of the method (total, mean, median,?) but it'd be nice to see a team score on the scoreboard.
    - Team AACH. No idea how to implement this.. but a gui like the regular /aach list, but showing the number of team members that have completed each aach, turning yellow or green as everyone completes one.


    The other possible improvements are, imho, on the players. We needed even more organization in this cat herding operation. Not so much as to take the fun out of it, but just enough to reduce the stress a bit. Some better way to list what is needed, where things should go, and what's been done.

    Just some thoughts. Don't take 'em too seriously. I really love this experience so far!

    I am curious about this too. If we calculated "Average points per team member" per team, then that would give us a much better view on who's really winning :D

    I wouldn't mind doing that just as a FYI but as I previously stated, more players is more points and recruitment is part of the Hard Team challenge. It's working out ok I think. The total team score IS the real score though.

    I agree with the ideas but we don't really have the resources for them. We did the best we could and are hoping that's enough to have fun. If we do this again maybe we can add team chat channels as primary target though!

    From here on out the Mod team will only approve team changes on a case by case basis. Generally we will allow new players who don't have a lot of points to change teams.

    Also we discourage the use of alt accounts added just to give more points to your team, please don't do that. If you do have an alt account that you've already done this with, please request them to be removed from the Hard team they are on (feel free to send a PM to me or another Hard mod to do this if you don't want it to be public). We will not hold it against you, in fact we will likely congratulate you for rectifying the situation :)

    And yes, we have a pretty good idea of who is using alts to do that :p
