    Heya,

    I have been playing jailbreak and recently there has been a massive increase in cell wars.
    To be short: This is hungergames as soon as a warden is chosen and you are locked in your tiny cells.
    On some maps this is fine you lose maybe 1-4 people. On most maps you are left with 6 when you started with 21 because there are only 6 cells.
    I want to suggest a rule banning this as it seems like a cheap way to destroy the enemy team as it is meant to be a game mode where you put them through CHALLENGES of MINI-GAMES to win this sacred LR and why shouldn't you be able to because you cannot kill the 5 other people in your cell because there is a medic in with you and they will most likely always win.

    I think this is a horrible idea to keep having it on our server and that it should be banned as it kills the majority of the server because the warden cannot be bothered to do a proper day and try survive and just use it to cull the population.

    EDIT: Maybe allow it for a 1:10 guard to red ratio but when there are 2:10 it should be easy enough if your guards pay attention and actually do their job.

    "Cellwars: You do not have to kill your cellmate but can if you so wish."

    Or

    "You can only do cell wars once every 4 rounds."

    Make it known and have the ability to turn it off if it is tried most likely.
    Or make it a guard ban reason it is a suggestion, but it is literally in my opinion a random toggle of friendly fire backed up by calling it cell wars, I just feel that it should not be allowed as you get a round and by the time you get to the yellow line you have won because everyone else died from the cell wars and you don't even get to play a mini game and this is why most people come on to jailbreak. The game is about winning mini games to get the last request and not about who gets lucky in small cell having to kill their cell mates.

    +1. I think this should be added for reasons stated by @Spartan@Spartan. Also maybe you could try and disable the use of /wff until the cells have been opened if this rule was to be added.

    I say no, because it's a valid minigame in my eyes. However, it might be a good idea to change the warden's command settings so an admin has to give approval before friendlyfire/collisions is toggled, and can cancel the settings at any given time. This way, it can be regulated more. And the "No 3 days with the same theme in a row" could be changed to "No 3 days with the same theme on a map", so you could limit the amount of cell wars on each map. You could also add a rule they can't kill people who don't participate in cell wars, so that you can choose with your cell mates not to fight each other and all survive.

    It isn't needed to kill your cellmate, you are allowed to kill him. Unless the warden says kill your cellmate, you don't have to do anything.

    Yes but most of the time they say cell wars and then after say kill anyone with more than 1 person in the cell so that is why this is suggested.

    To remove the whole minigame? Bit of an overkill then. Then just make some rules about it.
