Multiple event hosting

[Aquatiq]

You don't see this as a way to increase the competitiveness of hosts? The best host will draw the better crowd right?

No offense, but no one besides the smods really have any reason to care who the best hosts are. If people find it inconvenient that they are missing some of their favorite events because they happen simultaneously, what's so difficult about waiting 10 more minutes to advert? What's good about the ERs trying to cram in as many hosts as they can? Is 2 games of 20 people each really more desirable than 1 game with 40 people?

I'm all for the more events...it is more likely to bring more people to trench wars, rather than not hosting at all...but lately I have only seen two dedicated ER's. Chao and Left_Eye. Aparrently there have been 8 promotions to ER recently...where are the other 6 not to mention the others that were previously ER?

Well, there are some exceptions to my opinion, I suppose (i.e., a really slow and boring to watch game is finishing up, 2 players are still duking it out, and a new event is advertised). Competitiveness may not always be bad, so to speak, but the events are about the people who play it moreso than anything else. In most cases, more people = more fun. Also, I've heard far more complaining about overlapping events as opposed to praise for more options.

I have noticed this more as of late as well, but I'm not going to mention any names here.

Come on, if a host is in the middle of hosting something, don't ad until they are finished. It really shouldn't be that difficult to figure out whether something is being hosted or not at the time. When I see someone hosting an event with 35 people and then lose 15 of them because someone else just interrupted with an ad, I see that as disrespectful to the previous host. It can also ruin the fun of the previous event.

There are also those who want to play both events, but when the previous event is over, the other has already started anyway!

I donno if this is just annoying me but can one event be left to finish before adverting another event as it kills the first event
