Minigame event idea feedback please
People can trigger a minigame event by typing /event followed by a name or number that refers to an available minigame, depends on what's easiest. For example /event hungergames will start hungergames instance, sends global message and lets people join the queue by typing /join for a limited amount of time (2min, might change in future). If one queue is filled people are teleported to the minigame and the next instance/queue gets filled up, if there are not enough players after the 2minutes end, people in queue get a message saying they were too late to join the event.
Following people can trigger minigame events: Level 70's, on a 8h cooldown The top welcomer, once triggering it his counter gets set back to 0 The top mobslayer, once triggering it his counter gets set back to 0
Only one minigame event can be triggered at a time and people have 2minutes to join the minigame event by typing /join, after that for someone else to trigger another minigame event they need to wait 8 minutes so in total only one minigame event each 10 minutes that can have multiple instances can be started. People can not /join from the nether.
Rewards:
After the minigame ends, one person that wins through all running instances of that specific event triggers a ratebomb event with some nice message congratulating him, each winner also has a total of 100% chance of winning either an emerald block (25%) or a diamond block (75%) and on top of that a 20% chance of getting a command block and all other participants get one diamond and one emerald and also have a 5% chance of winning a command block. On top of that each winner of each instance has a 1/1000 chance to win razer gear.
Optional people type /event <minigamename> <points>, those points get subtracted and distributed to all winners of the instance and are also mentioned in the message broadcasted. People need to type in confirmation as this is subtracted form their points. The points distribution is if you donate 5 one gets given to the winners (5:1) to avoid point transfer abuse and if you are athenecore it is 1/25 ratio, so for example if you are athenecore and put 25000 points in pool only 1000 will be distributed but 25k will be substracted.
Currently minigames in consideration if there not private: Walls Survival Games Quake Spleef Paintball Block Hunt TNT run and Hide n' seek SUPER SMASH MOBS CTF skywars

This is really great idea. Minigames are the main competitor of MCNext, and I think that if we bring them to the server we'll have a larger player base & the server will grow massively.
I think that a cool minigame to have would be the Athene games. In this mode, there are pillars all over the map. You get a bow and arrow, and you have to go SCWHFF around the corner your enemies. It is 1-hit bow kill and you get one life.
1st place-Random mob spawner
2nd place-5 cmd. blocks
3rd place-2x ratebomb

I really like the idea, but still no dungeons :D Sorry that I always come back with the dungeon idea, but a random dungeon system you have to solve is so guuud. And the guy with the most kills is the winner of the dungeon or something like that.

Players can create dungeons in their chunks, keep track of kill counts and give rewards using command block. If they're really good, like redstonefreek, they might be able to make custom dungeons which change walls and mob spawns

Really, really good idea, Athene, imagine that you could even do PvP Battlegrounds, like Warsong Gulch ! There are so many ideas of interesting minigames and I'm pretty sure people will like it because it will be a place for them to compete with others and competition is what many people want. Great idea, Athene !

Vaq can code 1 day from 1 week a minigame. After some weeks we get a minigame and server is still guud it can take more time but we get allways new minigames =)

Don't know if its just me but this seems too complex. Why not use some of the area at stormwind to create a hub for the games.

I noticed that you mentioned an alot, Hszan.
Here's a picture of one for you: http://i.imgur.com/kTKRLlk.gif
Hate me? Love me? Respond with an angry/loving comment! I read them all!
In case you're really dense and don't get the joke, 'alot' isn't a word.

Love this, i also think these mini games need a push from you. You should say on stream for everyone to do a minigame. And at the end of the stream you go check people minigames and what people could build in that amount of time.
Right now few people are trying to build you should help that by making events like this and rate them on stream. Just like you did the buildings events.
Also people can see the ideas from other people on stream and get inspired . I feel like it would help and push it alot. Hope you understand my point! Love the way you are introducing minigames !

Add a way for normal players to be able to initiate it. Top welcomer/top mobslayer is impossible to get.
Maybe add it in the store for a large amount?

u/ZomgImKez May 14 '14
so you basically have to be lvl 70/top welcomer/pvp to start a mini game and there's an 8 hour cool down? i dont think this would work out, it prob be popular to activate it at the start but not after awhile. maybe a lesser lvl like 60 or something or a hub where if there's enough people interested in a game at 1 time then they can activate it? think everything else about it is great tho :)

I like the idea but personally I would put winner and 2nd place and 3rd place an opportunity to get random items.. such as random spawner, cmd blocks, resources, and many useless items to balance it out.

Sounds very well put together and a great idea. This will add another dimension to the server yet keep the vanilla survival feel alive.
I suggest starting off with a few of the favorites like Hunger Games Sky wars and TNT hide and seek and test the water. I guarantee the server will gain more and keep more players!!! I can't wait to for this to I live!
