I screencapped many requests to get games started a while ago (when cw was removed from trim req), originally it was to eventually compile them and make a thread proving a point that the number of players required to start games/get rewards should be reduced. But then I quit the game for a while. So since you've made the effort to make a thread about it, I shall contribute what I have.

Just because ppl cbb to use fcs or what have you to get others into these minigames, isnt a reason to reduce/remove req.

1) There aren't fcs to cover every minigame.
2) The fcs aren't even running the minigames the vast majority of the time.
3) Its hard to find fcs, many players probably don't even know RSOF (still) exist, much less where to find the fcs that host them.

Wanted to make awareness while it's active :) 1v1 is but one (easy) solution, wouldn't even have balancing issues compared to add some over the top content to a minigame

Then start up one for the minigame. Whats stopping ppl from doing so?

Why must they always rely on others? You do know the ones that do have one had to start from scratch too right?

So this is beyond null.

Thats not jagex's fault its the players who choose not to ask around.

Plus theres always reddit they could ask there, whats stopping them from doing that?

You saying they dont know that exists too? Really?

I tried finding games of Great Orb Project earlier today, but I failed to find any server hosting games, any friend chat hosting games, or anyone wishing to play a game at the time of asking.

What would be really handy is some way of knowing if there is a game of Great Orb Project ongoing at that time. Perhaps the Runecrafting guild could change to a different hue glow, or simply have something in the user interface to say there's a game active. At least then it'd be possible to know if the game was active. Currently you have to wait around for 20 minutes or so per server to know if anyone comes out of the game. Nobody can be expected to do that.

This issue is probably true for other minigames too.

Essentially, most minigames are dead because they are inaccessible. I've just been inside the more accessible Flash Powder Factory and that had dozens of players partaking in the game. I believe your suggestion is a step in the right direction, but I feel like a single-player mode should be available for all these minigames too.

It works for the minigames that have single player options, so I don't see why it wouldn't work for the minigames that don't currently have this as an option.

What's stopping players? Not having enough players, did. Have you read the opening post?

The only thing null here is your skull.

It's the homeless people's own fault they're homeless. It's not the government's fault they choose to not collect their welfare.

Plus there's always law firms they could ask there, what's stopping them from doing that?

You saying they don't know that exists too?
