I would bet the ranch that you probably just happened to come upon the point where the Blue arena was just reset (hence 0 players) ... which in turn dropped the MAX CAP on the Orange (100) due to Blue being "cleaned out".

There are much larger things in life to have hissy fits over than arena caps.
Wasnt whining just wanted to show how well the CAP work.
Thought it was kind of funny. Prolly have larger things to do than play.

Screencap is result of Arena reset. 

ENY doesn't take effect unless there is a minimum number of players in the arena.

Who will post next and whine about arena caps?

I'm still curious as to what the problems is with caps better than  :cry.

Unfortunately, you took a snapshot of the arena numbers at a time when Titanic Tuesday was being switched back to the normal arena setup, hence the numbers.  So, you kind of failed pretty bad in trying to show how the arena caps don't really work (in your opinion).

This is the game before the game.  Its kinda like a sprinter stretching before a race.  I get my mouse hand warmed up by pressing online, ok, quit, online, ok, quit, online, ok, quit.


Those 52 in Blue are awfully tempting! :rolleyes:

The cap dance.  :aok

Uhm.. at this time of day they are just wasting their time with enter/exit.

Blue has to get to 105 players before cap on Organge is being increased, and it takes more than just a few seconds for those 36 players over cap in Orange to leave the arena.

Now if everone that's waiting to get into Orange or just turning away because he can't get into the arena with numbers would simply go into Blue... ;)

Then we agree that time is being wasted.

I tried to login at the same time apparently.... saw the same thing

as to the ENY.......... of course if you went in blue you would have 100% of members in arena...... your ENY would be 29

so you would be in an arena by yourself with nobody to fly against......... and not even able to fly a decent plane

WTFG HTC   arena caps work so well
ENY doesn't engage until there are 8 players in the arena.
