Arena Caps??
« on: February 27, 2009, 11:49:02 AM »
Just left LWO and noticed that the  caps were --235/400 in orange and --18/400 in blue.

Is that usually the way it is? Has something been done to change the caps?

LOL thanks.

I don't think i've ever noticed them like that before.

But then again, my memory isn't what it used to be either!

I know this has been raked over the coals a few million times but I will never understand why HTC has to cap these arenas with only 225 people on line.

They're not capped.  It's just a number.  Before Noon Central Time, there are NO dynamic caps.

 :uhoh Just to relieve my curiosity, how is it that an arena "cap" may be 200 and there be 204 people in there? I'm sure this has been beaten like a red-headed step-child and answered a dozen times, but, can anyone answer that one?

I'm too lazy to look through ALL the "arena cap" post to try and find the answer.

Thanks :aok

So you wouldn't mind if we are all too lazy to explain it to you then.
