PART 2: SPEED MODE

So, let's start out with something that is discussed all but so much on the forums. Obsidian rank perks. This was a great chance to give obsidian rank a well needed perk. No surprise, you blew it. I know some of my arcade voting options that I suggested might be added and I plan on re-suggesting hard mode soon, but still this could have been a great perk. That's aspect one.

Now, let's talk about the speed mode itself. My fastest game on speed mode was about five minutes, on forest, with one team vacant, normal items half health.

Comparatively, this is all the normal maps that my fastest game was faster than this:
Minions: 2 Min 9 Sec
Safari: 2 Min 24 Sec
Rome: 2 Min 37 Sec
End: 3 Min 14 Sec
Forest (Normal): 3.5 Min
Toys (Normal): 3.5 Min
Tentacles: 4 Min
Western: 4 Min
Treehouse: 4 Min
Space: 4.5 Min
Snowy: 4.5 Min
Candy: 4.5 Min

That's TWELVE maps where my fastest normal game was faster than my fastest speed mode game! That's 30% of all the maps available!
But it gets worse when you see the maps I've finished between 5 and 10 minutes!

Instruments: 5 Min
Pizza (On Hardcore Mode): 5 Min
Golf: 5 Min
Garden: 6 Min
Tropical: 6 Min
Teepee: 6 Min
Mine (On Hardcore Mode): 7 Min
Storm: 7 Min
Oriental: 7 Min
Village: 7 Min
Dwarven: 8 Min
Farm: 8 Min
UnderDaSea: 9 Min
Stronghold: 9 Min

That's right folks. My fastest game on the infamous CamperDaSea was a mere four minutes longer than my fastest game on speed mode. Now for the other maps:

Aztec: 11 Min
Kingdom (On OP Mode): 12 Min
Fairground: 13 Min
Nightmare: 15 Min
Steampunk: 18 Min
Mushrooms: 21 Min
Teaparty (On Hardcore Mode): 24 Min

So, on 36/40 (90%) or without the new maps (which I excluded) 30/34 (86%) the fastest game was on normal mode. That's aspect two.

Now let's talk about obsidian. If you're trying to make the game go faster, give me one half decent reason why you would keep obsidian, let alone make it cheaper. That's aspect three.

Now let's talk about bows. Why would you keep bows??? That's aspect four.

So, in conclusion speed mode should have been a voting option available on all maps. It should be mostly normal with OP prices in blocks (except obsidian), food (Except g-apples and god apples), no obsidian, and no bows. Thanks.

One thing I don't like about the half health update, even though it has nothing to do with you, is that spawn protection can kill easily.

Another reason why we need changes to the spawn protection system
