So, today has been rough...
Start map turned out well I think:

Yes, there were some drops added, but nothing above level 15.
Then, there was the coliseum...
Hobbs and I both worked on it.
First, Hobbs started out alone. He had some great setups. Multiple rooms for multiple level challenges.
Unfortunately, a small typo ended the fun, and we had to start over.
So, we tried again. He built the walls, and added some spawn.
I did all the portals (aka doors).
Again though, a small typo, and we had to restart yet again.
Sadly, in Hobbs timezone, it got very late (he and I are on opposite sides of the planet)
So, since there were already a ton of people there, I started just throwing whatever decent spawn in I could think of. This is especially difficult: if you add a mob that's not a full mob, you'll crash the map for everyone - and the whole server may need to be reset. So I played it safe, and did what I could.
But I could not build the walls as everyone was already there.
Once the players got spaced apart a little, I noticed some problems - when the top would fall, everyone - including the weaker players at the very bottom - would die.
So, I decided to try and add some walls to separate - and make it a little more fair to those level 200s that are now facing level 1500+ mobs.
No matter what I did - someone had complaints.
Even though, they did not read a single warning, they felt they were entitled to chew me out.
So, I ended the party in the coliseum.
Maybe, I'll try again tomorrow.
