    Please don't select yes and no because you wanted to say maybe in the poll.

    Lower player caps just play better, less stalemates, so I am suggesting that the population cap be lowered to either 14 or 16.
    Stalemates might happen with 20 because
    Defenders have the entire 20 players stuck up in the base
    Attackers only have their 6-12 knights, unless they manage to work together well.

    Obviously, the defenders last a long time and it gets stalemated.

    As someone who has griefed (not in kag) griefers will target larger servers, this won't make a huge difference, but griefers will also effect only 16 people when they greif, rather than 20. Still a problem, but w/e it helps.

    Additional reasons and responses, from other players, generally good response.

    Just a thought, since there are multiple official servers in each region, that maybe CTF 1 should have 20 players and CTF 2 should have 16 players. Of course, same for TTH

    You can make it so that it's a one choice thing I believe?

    no its no good, clan wars/ competitive kag matches are good for 5v5 or 6v6, but not pub matches. having a small amount of players puts too much responsibility on 1 player when the server is full. i dont join pub matches to try hard.

    other things need to be accounted for like deterioration of maps, lag ect. I would personally prefer somewhere around 16-18 slots. In a perfect world more active players with vip(join when full).
