I never said it was boring. I enjoy koth...both playing and hosting. Pretty much everyone enjoys it (until they lose).

My point, as already clearly stated above, is that it is not a solution to the problem. Sure, it raises the playercount and provides a couple of hours of entertainment when it's hosted, but only in small doses.

It cannot provide constant entertainment, and if we tried to host it all the time, that's when it would get boring.

Giving big prizes for Koth like that is another prime example at why the current gang system fails. It shouldn't require super expensive/overpowered/rare items to make gangs interesting.
