You have to find out how to spawn the players to win the game. It's well balanced and there is only a minor chance to win with the same team again and again.

Or to put it different: Maybe there is an interesting way of &quot;playing&quot; this game, but than the &quot;rules&quot; on how the spawn timing influences the game-play are far too difficult to discover (at least for me). It's unclear who wins a duel once two players start fighting and under which conditions. If I had known that, I would at least be able to decide what kind of &quot;meta-game&quot; strategy would be beneficial to me. Don't get me wrong, I really like the idea of an indirect game-play through some kind of meta-game, but I just miss knowledge of the rules that would make it work here. Maybe add some more guidance? :) If its all random, it still makes a perfect drinking game :)"},{"author_name":"SiENcE","author_uid":"10298","time":"Dec 21, 2012 @ 4:45pm","epoch":1356108000,"text":"timtipgames thanks for your critic.
