[Enjin Archive] Time Extension for Events
Started by [E] Binkleplease

I think that all of the building and griefing competitions are a bit short in terms of time limits. In all three competitions I have seen so far that involve building and placing/destroying blocks, I saw "Noooo! I HAVEN'T FINISHED" and "F***!". I think the time limit should be extended to 45 minutes or even an hour, with a short intermission in the middle to look around. For example:

1. Gathering People to Participate

(Takes about 5-10 minutes)

2. Part 1

(Takes 30 minutes)

3. Intermission

(Takes 5-10 minutes)

4. Part 2

(Takes 30 minutes)

We could have another thing at the end, but this is a good layout. I just think the time should be extended, and that is the main point. I probably screwed up the grammar in this, but I DON'T CARE!
You forgot part 5, where the Admin accidently slices through the event and crashes everything <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f642.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":)">:)</object>
I'm just annoyed about how most events are set for the American. Which means that they're like at 2 in the morning or something in England
RANDOM IDEA TIME!

I think in the event world, we should have automated events using some plugin, which would load the world to a specific save, then have text explaining the rules.

There would have to be supervisors, but the events would be more frequent and timezone independant.
To the time thing. The reason i have been using 30 minutes is that it can take over an hour to fully complete a 30 minute event if it includes judging and a long setup time. Many people express concern over events taking too long, especially in team events where they may be left a person short. Regardless, i will work out some longer duration events.
The upcoming halloween event will be 2 weeks long and on a 24 hour server so anyone can access it anytime

How much longer do you need for an event lol o.O
i need nine months to properly finish the event <object class="emojione" data="https://resources.enjin.com/1489581540/themes/core/images/emojione/svg/1f913.svg?0" type="image/svg+xml" standby=":geek:">:geek:</object>
