Can we switch the people needed to join the fsp tournaments from 128 down to 64? I know it was cut once before but just looking at the arena now and seeing all those tournaments it seems that they are still far too hard to fill up. Maybe bringing it to 64 would be better and they would be completed faster.

Im not quite sure how I stand here on the con side of your idea having 128 is a huge gold sink because 5fsp is 500,000 in gold being put into the game and 1,600,000 being pulled out if it was cut to 64 800,000 being pulled out meaning fsp prices could go up when the pvp arena is keeping them down. On the pro side of your idea more tournys could me setup and more tournys completed meaning a faster rate of gold sink ...... :shock:

I've made this suggestion before as well. To address the concern of DragonX800, simply double the entry fee. That would still be only 25k for 5 fsp and 20k for 4 fsp. That's a reasonable risk/reward and the tournaments would fill up much quicker.

To show the need for this, currently the top 17 tournaments waiting to be filled are all for fsp and some of them have been there for days. In addition to that, all of the other tournaments that aren't filled are either for fsp or combat moves, so there's not much going on for those of us who can't participate in the combat move tourneys any longer.

i say yes with an increase in the entry fee to offset the difference.

If they 1/2 the number to 64, then the guild player number would also need to be halved. I know there's a limit at the moment, but no idea what it is as it's buried in a thread somewhere and not on the faq.

I would guess that's built in to the code, depending on the tournament size (1/4 from any guild) but I could be wrong.

Arena Guild Member Restrictions

We've loosened the restrictions on members of the same guild joining the same tournament. Before a general limit of 5 per guild was imposed, however we have now changed this limit to be 25% of the tournaments max players. So for example on a 64 player tournament, up to 16 players from the same guild are eligible to join.
