WinnerHub has given everyone in North America the opportunity to play TalesRunner again after gPotato closed it on December 21, 2011. Their hard work and dedication to the game that we love will always be appreciated by the community. We cannot thank them enough for bringing TalesRunner back. Through the game's lifespan, we have seen numerous effective updates, all featuring new maps and characteres. Thank you, WinnerHub.


That being said, there is always room for improvement. The servers are not prime right now, as certain hours see only one room in 30-player races. Because of the 9-player limit, this can cause lots of 'dead rooms' where 5-6 people are waiting for more people to join, but eventually leave after 10 minutes of waiting. This cause the room to die, as people give up on fulfilling the 9-player requirement and search for another map to play. This has happen to me many times while trying to play Lizard Crisis, and there is no reason for that. The 9-player limit has to go.

I understand that one main argument against this is that people might 'boost' for cards and/or TR + EXP. There is a simple fix: If racers do not make it out of the 'green' area, then no rewards shall be given. The amount of rewards given can be based on the fixed ratio already used to determine the TR + EXP amount for races.

If you agree that the 9-player limit should be removed until the servers see a mass increase in players, then sign this petition. Let's get the GM's attention!!!

Post from the TalesRunner SG Facebook page:
This petition will help the server not look so empty, and more appealing when new players join. It will also allow gamers like me to help certain players improve on 30 player survival maps without waiting on 9 or more people. Its been a concern of mine, and a suggestion in the Winnerhub forum. If you agree just give us your signature. Other valid reasons and where you can sign are in the link. Thank you for reading... Happy Racing~ (Facebook user: Nobu Terashema)

Here's an example of unnecessary waiting in a lobby with people that want to play:

UPDATE: I think we can expect the 9 player limit to be eliminated after the next content update! Here's a conversation I had with the TalesRunner SG page:
