I have noticed more and more players wanting a "Solo SG" gametype. Now I was all for this idea, but then I thought about how MCGamer would handle stats. Because it wouldn't be fair for the Solo SG gametype stats count towards the overall stats, and vice versa. This is because Solo SG will only have solo players and make the game slightly easier. Say it goes through and they just have two leaderboards... the idea of having two leaderboards for Solo SG and regular SG scares me. I don't think that would be a good idea for the server. Stats would get beyond confusing at that point. Those are just my thoughts, what do you guys think?

Uh, get with the times. Lot's of mods have been hinting at the idea, or explicitly said that there is a teaming solution in the works

As for OP, if there is a solo server then just have 1 set of stats for solo, 1 set of stats for team servers

Yeah, killing teams is awesome. But I don't enjoy it since they added a filter for eZ, so I can't make the team feel bad (What I love to do by spamming gg)

I think people should stop complaining on teams because you can also team and because if MCSG have a team limit then it won't be like the real survival games they do can team as much as they want <3

I'm pretty sure there's ideas up in the air on what to do about teaming right now. I personally don't like the idea of having solo server/gametype. Teaming has always been apart of the game and it actually helps with skill to fight off teams rather than a bunch of solo players.

I think a solo server would be great. And solo has an advantage? THEN PLAY SOLO..

Which is more fair for your statistics: playing solo and running into 3 teams a game, or playing against other solo players?

Yeah.

How about just having the same stats for both game types as they are basically the same, and who cares! lmao :)
