new game type

Concise description:

handicap games

Specifics:

have games that are 1vs2, 2vs3, 2vs4 and 3vs4
both teams get the same amount of territories to start with
points are added up like in other team games (so the team with less players has a point advantage)
anyone with less than 20 games played cant set up or join one of these games to avoid them getting farmed

This will improve the following aspects of the site:

a fun game type

Would be good. Need to make sure that the turns rotate to each team every turn. Now if you are in a quad game and your the last player playing against 4 others. they pretty much all get their turn before you get yours again.

i think for the handicap to work appropriately, you cant rotate to the other team every turn. for example, if i play 1 vs 4 and i get a turn after everyone from the other team does, that would seem to be a pretty good deal for the 1 player. it would be like having the same person playing as a four man team versus four other individuals.

my guess is that this is why the original suggestion only included 1v2, 2v3, etc.

i actually think that every player should get there turn once within a round, if not then its the team with more players that has the disadvantage, which is the opposite of what it should be

1 v 7?

This looks like a good suggestion to me, I would like to see this idea implemented. I think that it could ultimately attract more people to the site and make lack more $crilladillaz!

i take it by the little amount of posts that this isnt as popular as i thought it would be...

I like this idea.

There should only be 1 player difference per team or it's too unfair.

Sounds interesting, but two players on the same turn receiving their turn back to back might be an advantage to large to overcome. Still, I'd like to try it.
