Ok, usually moshes involve 2 - 4 large parties that always seem to hit and run people, but sometimes the parties are completely uneven because people scroll with invites as people join.

I suggest that as people join the mosh they are divided into two teams, on locked squares at either ends of the mosh arena where they are to all join the same party.
Or even locked squares a square off the side of the area, with a gate that opens when the mosh begins.

There doesn't just need to be two teams, as I'm sure on busy days the teams will end up being way way way too big.

Another suggestion I have to try and stop people being gay and abusing this mosh, is as soon as the player is placed into a team they are given a temporary picture which the whole team will have, like a crest or whatever (like in the harabec/arilin war)

Soon as they die the picture is returned to normal.

The mosh ends when every player from opposing teams is dead, and the winning team and its members are announced.

Another feature I think would be nice, is the ability to pick the team you want to join putting you on a waiting list to join that team, for example

/mosh enter red would put me on a waiting list for the next avaliable spot on the red team

any feedback would be nice

not 100% on all of it, but for the most part....supported.

[Horny]

i like it.. good idea jimmy... supported. O.o but ppl who join.. should automaticly have thier parties on nopk

[Gunshow]

Supported, any new ideas for moshes and events are always good. Love the events and think this would be an awesome idea, not every mosh, but maybe a the new event JLH is looking for on Tuesdays?

[fallen]

Ya I kinda agree with gunshow it sounds like a decent "event" and the idea should probley be used for the event day we are missing. Supported

[menardi]

jimmy for staff prz

[Despair]

sorry I was chatting to a ton of people on MSN while typing this out and forgot to add a few things, I'm not suggesting making this the default mosh or anything, because everyone would miss the standard old school mosh how it's always been....

Just suggesting this to add a little diversity

[Squee]

Isn't an organized mosh a little contradictory?

I dislike how moshes are played out currently but I don't believe this to be the right answer.

Though, it makes for an interesting new event.

[Oracle]

I don't see any harm in adding an optional staff command to have this special type of mosh from time to time. Infact I like the idea

[Emo]

Supported for new event but won't make Champ Belt mosh anymore decent.

Moshes in my opinion should have NO teaming AT ALL. Haven't you guys been in mosh pits? A solo frantic insane push-and-shove/fight with everyone else in the pit.

This would also be fairer on everyone as it's not how many good players you grab for your party or (with the new idea) how lucky you are with ending up on a strong team. It would test your solo abilities in a mosh and the winner would finally deserve the belt for a week.

This party mosh has been going on for a long time but it never used to be like it is now. It was moaned about by myself a year or so ago and staff disabled /party and monitored for teaming. It kinda worked then and I think it would work now.

This would also stop clans teaming and ending up with only there clan left and doing /random to determine the winner which defeats the purpose of the whole damn event.

Flame away.

that's why I suggested being able to be placed in a queue for the next avaliable place on a specific team

" /mosh enter red, would put you in a queue to join the red team next position avaliable"

but oh well I'll look forward to seeing it in Nightmist 2 I guess

[Ryuku]

All moshes should be no teaming, I mean a mosh is either everyone killing each other or jumping up and down against people and also fighting.

Please don't tell me you're adding the idea of changing pictures? That idea was shot down by none other than staff a long time ago, saying people would just get around it by paging etc. Wasn't even accepted to blank all names also.

However, if it is being used, them awesome, pleased to hear it! Always thought it'd make things more fun, you'd not have a clue who you were fighting.

[combusta]

not that good of an idea. cuz then clans will just join the red, and page ppl saying, join red join red, etc. so always 1 team will be overpowerd, and, u can just exit mosh and come back in 2 c which team is better.

unless its fixed up, not supported.

[JLH]

the system will place the teams, the players won't
if you quit and rejoin, it will remember what team you were on

[combusta]

now that its fixed, supported

[snizzlesnaps]

i think there should be a mosh where as when you join all chats are disabled and all crits except the 1 in the mosh are automatically logged. it should also clear your nopk until the end of the mosh and disable you from putting any1 on nopk that way there no teams you aint got no1 sayin in cc or fc dont hit this person or hit this person or join up wit this person. people will prolly still plan it all out b4 entering the mosh but with the nopk cleared people have that chance of taking out the person they didnt want to thus making it more of skill to win the mosh rather than whos got the strongest team.
