RPS + perks in one proposal

Exactly.

I have no idea why you are belaboring it either.  Your point is moot.  If you want to play in the Melee arena, then play there, as long as you are not trying to convert everyone to some other style/type of game play.

The custom arenas are not meant to replace any arena.  They are there (mostly) for players who want specific things not available in the other arenas.

If it's a moot point, why isn't the entire game revolving around 32 player arenas?  Because there is a difference.

If you're looking for gameplay that is like the Melee but with your own settings, you cannot do it in any meaningful capacity.

His point is we can't duplicate the Melee settings so it's back to apples and oranges. 

Yes.  This.

I made the suggestion to nugets to start a custom arena with the settings he wants, which is nothing like the Melee arena.

I have no idea why you guys are not letting this go.  It has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE EXISTING ARENAS!!!

I'll say it one more time, only differently.

If you want to play in an arena already configured the way you want, then there is no need to start or play in a custom arena.

What is it about that, which cannot be comprehended?  You cannot setup and configure a custom arena exactly like the Melee arena.  You cannot do it.  It cannot be done.  IT IS ALSO NOT WHAT IS TRYING TO BE DISCUSSED HERE!

[Wiley]

Okay...  Put another way as well, a lot of peoples' ideas (like some of nuget's) pretty much need scale to work.  Without it, they don't get a fair chance IMO.  That's not available with the custom arenas.

His idea does not really need a bunch of players.  It is all about the configuration.

For example.  We discovered very early on, that the WW1 arena works best with about 10 to 15 players in it.  There is no reason why a custom arena cannot be just as much fun with 16 players in it.

But to be more direct.  You are not talking about the Melee arena, you are talking about the specific cap size of the arenas.  Yes, some things need a large scale arena.  Special events, for example, but a number of things work well in a small arena.

The 16 player limit is a good number for custom arenas and would work for what nuget wants to do.

Maybe he can talk with some of the AvA staff about setting up the arena for a week and see how it works out.

Yes, but nuget cannot play as he does not have a subscription, which is fine.  I am just offering an alternative if he wants to go for it.

HiTech told me if he can keep the arena bumping 16 players for a week, he will raise the cap to 32.

That was the catch 22.

But what you want IS possible. Build yourself a smg8 map, load it up, call it the Furball arena and have at it.

And to top it off:
