    OKAY NEW IDEA:

    Make the timer longer… like 30 minutes…

    BUT:

    Your team must wait until the button gets pressed by 2 different teams before one of your team members can press it again!

    So

    Purple Presses --> Red, Blue, or Green must press within 30 minutes to keep it aluve

    Red Presses --> Blue, or Green must press within 30 minutes to keep it alive

    Green Presses --> Purple, or Blue must press within 30 minutes to keep it alive

    The point of this is to force teams to be more balanced… I mean people wanna keep the game going for as long as they can, right? That’s the fun of the game

    It’s really interesting that both season 1 and season 2 lasted almost exactly as long as one another. That is even after everybody got a second press within the first 24 hours to try to help carry it over until the button refresh happened. It really shows that there aren’t enough users active in that timezone to help it through to the next day.

      so we need to get japan on board for another time zone. So first, translate the page to japanese, would help and second get mastodon, misskey on board, because there are quite a few japanes people. I would be interested if there was even one mastodon user participating? I have only seen lemmy, piefed user. Or maybe contact the poeple from the australian lemmy server, they not that big, but better than nothing

      S1 actually finished about four hours earlier than S2 but the numbers are showing wrong (perhaps fixed by now).
