Okay this is completely crazy idea but here goes.
Every player can have only 1 village (no croppers). Registration open for 1 week.
Map is smaller, only 1 wonder. Goal of the server is to hold the wonder for... lets say a week. Don't have to build it, just hold it. (is the only way to have 2 villages)
Player gets zeroed -> out of the game.
5-10x game speed?
So, let me get it right...
The game will end the moment a player holds the wonder for a week, right?

Or when all multi accounts will be banned

That is the idea.

HAHAHAHA
Yeah.
For real though, this gamemode wouldn't be a good fit for Kingdoms. Sounds more like a thing for the Legends team.
I mean I wouldn't know what "kingdoms" would do in this case that "alliances" can't do.
Legends also has better anti cheat for something like this.
Just the menhir system sounds useful for this gamemode.
Ok, so, what happens if nobody manages to get to hold the village for a week?
One thing you touch on but it isn't too clear for me, are there kingdoms involved, or is this a free for all?
Do you think there would be enough players for the game?
It seems to me that we may struggled getting enough players.

Then the server continues until nobody wants to play anymore and someone ends up holding it anyway.

I don't know. I guess ffa.

Yes cause you can play it with 10 or with 100.
Yes but you cannot have a whole gameworld with all the work and resources behind it for 10 players... it just doesn't work...
Prepaid+fixed gold-registration looks like an excellent solution to run these kind oof gameworlds

Is it not possible to scale down? Is there a large amount of manual work getting a normal server up and running? Since from a players perspective seems like it could all be automated from picking the day it will launch to the day the server ends, so long as it is being kept an eye on.

Sorry, let me be more clear.
Whether you have 10 or 1000 players, the idea stays the same, the game will still be viable.
Ofc the idea is to have lots of players on the server but if the game takes so long that nobody holds the wonder for a week then players will stop playing. After a while there are so few left that you are practically play with 10 people and then it is very likely someone will hold the wonder for a week.
