    So its been asked a LOT of times by many users, if we could cut down on the amount of SG arenas we have.
    Well we are contemplating doing just that and we want to know what arenas you guys love, which ones you think are ok but you could do with a change and which ones you think we should get rid of.

    This may not happen immediately and we may just stick with the arenas that you guys want to keep. Nothing is set in stone at the moment but we still want to know which one you guys want to lose.

    If you guys think we should change any areanas that you want us to keep let us know in the comments!

    I strongly dislike arenas 1, 5, 6, and 8 because they are so large and difficult to find players on. I like a quick match where people actually fight. Not just run around or crouch in some hole somewhere.

    Also on arena 2, I would strongly approve of getting rid of the ladder near spawn. All it draws are campers and users wanting to abuse the cover given by the glass. Or keep the ladder but remove the glass surrounding it.

    If I had to pick in order of removal for 4 of them, I'd pick 1,7,6,5. 1 is just irritating with how large it is. All that it accomplishes is annoyingly long games that last a very long time. 7, I just don't like it lol. 6, too big. 5, too big. However, I DID vote for only 1, as I can tolerate the other arenas while I avoid arena 1 as much as possible....

    I would adjust arena 2 to be our current spawn somehow (but on small scale - maybe parts of spawn like the upper layer)

    I agree with the maps you chose but I really don't want to see an updated sg for SG2. It would be very hard to turn our spawn into an sg map because it is so focused on portals. It would get boring very quickly imo. Our old spawn wasn't nearly as focused on portals and parts of the spawn that made it feel like an actual map is what made it a fun sg map.

    Add a crafting table in the middle of sg 2.
    I remember when we were making it we were going to put one there, but we never did.

    A centrally located one would be more convenient for everyone who plays this map

    I don't think you're supposed to make SG "more convenient" for those playing.

    Well, I mean, if you have the materials to craft an iron sword or bow, but you can't find the table it would be very frustrating, so this would help out a lot. On other servers I see they all have a central crafting table in hunger games.

    Oh, before I forget to post this I just want to say that sg 1 isn't really survival games it's more like the starving games.. you run around with no food and you can't find anyone...

    new rule: 1/8th chance each SG game will be kitless, regardless of arena. kitless matches announced beforehand.

    Add crafting table to arena 2 at spawn as suggested by @a18greek18

    Builders and new players have no idea where crafting tables are located making it a bit fair for them incase they need to craft some weaponry.

    I agree for the removal of 4 maps. I honestly don't really care which arenas get taken away, as long as 6 and 8 are in the mix. The multi-leveled map makes for camping galore on 8, and 6 has water all over, which is OP for everyone with a kit bow.

    Would we be adding better arenas or removing 4 and only having 4?

    Currently we are thinking about just cutting it down to only 4 arenas for now, we may switch some of them out to other maps in the future but we want to know which maps we should be doing this sort of thing to.

    In my opinion, we should keep the popular arenas (2,3,4 and 7). We should remove the maps that are not used very often (1,5,6 and 8). This would allow larger matches to take place in the popular arenas, making things more fun. As well, the maps that aren't used very often, are hard to find people, and they usually take a long time to finish.
