Hello, people of all ages and genders and ethical groups.
My name is Ninja_Assassin, and I am starting off with this very bad introduction, so lets get to my point: I have suggestions that would probably help people a lot with their experiences specifically for Eggwars. However, some of my suggestions may target other games as well, but I would like to point these out. Let's get to it.
1. Parties
I believe having parties with people is something that most people would agree with. With these parties, we could communicate specifically in a party chat and be able to join games by having a party leader joining one and with other people joining the same game simultaneously instead of having each individual click the same sign. Also, this can prevent people from accidentally joining the wrong game, as the party leader is the only one required to click the proper sign.
2. Map Board Set-Up
I think there should be a different way in how the board should be set up. Instead of having randomized maps loaded onto the board, there should be a certain sign for a specific map. With this, people can freely play their favorite maps. Having a sign for each map should allow for a quicker joining method rather than waiting for a specific map to pop up or having to switch lobbies. By having them organized by the size of teams, there should be an overall better experience for people. Also, if a player joins a map and is the first one, there could be a map that is loaded quickly, making way for a new game. With this, players can enjoy the experiences of their favorite map 202819749732 times over.
3. Overpowered
In my opinion, overpowered should be removed in general. This, to me, is a good idea because in overpowered, the gear is insanely cheap and powerful. If two people with the same gear or slightly different gear fought, the only way to kill them is usually by making them fall or breaking their armor. Then reacquiring the gear takes little to no effort considering the insanity of the prices. Now, I know overpowered adds unique experiences, but they seem to exaggerate games quite a bit. Also, since only gold+ can vote, this makes players uncomfortable when everyone prefers normal, but that one gold wants overpowered. From my experiences, overpowered caused games to last an average of an hour, 30-45 minutes more than when I played normal. Although there are some games which overpowered games have been short, the majority seem to take longer. Overall, many people dislike overpowered and would prefer not to play it. Since only gold+ donors can vote, it would be best to either allow voting for everybody or remove overpowered (which is preferable by me).
4. Personal Games
I believe there should be an option to create a personal game with friends. Since I play with a somewhat large group of people, I like to play exclusively with them sometimes. However, this is not possible considering that other people can join a game that I want to play with my friends. With this option, people can play with their friends in any map instead of resorting to cross-teaming to get rid of the other team to have a map to themselves. Since this is a big change (if made), it should be exclusive to iron+ or something like that. With this, players can satisfy themselves then they go scramble their friends' eggs with a pixelated sandstone block, knock them off, and say, "Nice iron you got there. Too bad it's in the void."
5. 1.8 PvP
I request the return of 1.8 PvP! Oh, my beloved sword that once had no timer on it. This is just a preferable suggestion, because I'm used to 1.9 PvP now. But I would like the good old days of spamming that diamond pickaxe that is as powerful as a stone sword in my opponents' heads (which was my most used tactic: Pick Rush). If this was added, I would love that.
That's all the suggestions I have. Feel free to criticize me. I typed this on a whim after the start of a maintenance. Bye everyone. Love you!

P.S: If I were to choose one suggestion to have done, it would be Personal Games.
