Last week’s building contest had some issues that needed addressing. The initial rule that any player could claim any available block of land quickly led to disputes and overcrowding in the central area. Players ended up fighting over smaller plots, which slowed down the building process and reduced creativity. Moderators had to intervene frequently to manage conflicts, which detracted from their ability to provide support and guidance.
After the contest, we implemented a new rule that limited each player to a plot of land based on their player rank. This change helped to alleviate the overcrowding and allowed for more balanced development across different areas of the server. We saw a noticeable improvement in the quality and creativity of the buildings as players had more space and time to work on their projects without the added stress of competition. The new system also allowed us to better monitor the contest and ensure a fair playing field for all participants.
