    Please name your Suggestion/Bug Report:
    Headless Horseman

    Is this a suggestion or bug report?:
    Suggestion

    What does this report affect?:
    All-Trade Server

    Please elaborate on your suggestion:
    I think I posted something about adding the Horseless Headless Horseman, but it was on the old forms and before Harpoon Gaming made a new map. But I still believe that the All-Trade server should have a headless horseman spawn every 10-20 minutes in the middle part of the map. Also if you could I played on a server before with HHH and they had a scoreboard after he was killed. And that scoreboard would show the top 3 people that did the most damage. I think this is worth adding to the server because it creates more competition and more people would be active instead of idle and that would look great for a newcomer to Harpoon Gaming or TF2 alone because trust me I absolutely love trying to get in the top 3 for damage. I think this would be a good thing to add to the server to give it even more variety. And you might be saying well this will take a while to do what's the point? Well there are multiple points for this...

    1. Newcomers will be more likely to stay instead of server surf.
    2. It gives more competition.
    3. It makes it fun.
    4. It involves strategy because you don't want to get killed by the HHH but you also don't want to get killed by the enemies.
    5. Why not?:D

    Any Additional Information?:

    The largest issues with this are:
    If the HHH is not killed and stacks (as in multiple HHHs running around).
    The time to create the plugin if we do make one.
    Distracts from the trading aspect of the server.

    I'm not saying no, just trying to bring up potential issues.

    We actually have a plugin that can spawn all the Halloween bosses including the HHH. A problem that sometimes happens though is that the horseman can sometimes glitch / teleport inside of the spawn areas.

    I see what you are saying here are ways that I think might resolve those issues
    (In Order)
    -You could make the time limit longer or there might be a way to make it spawn 10 minutes after everyone kills the last one
    -I understand the time and there isn't a way around that problem unfortunately
    -I know that it distracts the trading aspect but for those people that like to fight the other team would probably like that. Also if someone is afraid of dying they could use spy crab rooms OR (here is another mini suggestion) you could add trading rooms to the server where it is like a spy crab room but for trading so it's impossible to die.

    Just a few suggestion. Thank you for replying. :D

    Well the issue with that is the server is a trading server. It's geared towards that.

    True maybe you could do it on the server you are thinking about making?
