How to get more people playing S2.
Since S2 is more or less a dead server now. I propose the following.
- S2 gets set-up the same as S1,
- Stagger the start of each server so that S2 starts 1 month after S1. making it only mid round on S2 when S1 starts, and vice-versa.
- Also, have it that each round ends on the 1st and new round starts on 3rd of the month.

I do however agree offsetting the round starts would attract more players.
Another idea, reintroduce S3, make rounds last 8 weeks, and start 2 weeks apart with a week between rounds.
example being
Week 0 S1 Signups open
week 1 S1 starts
Week 2 S2 ends
Week 3 S2 Signups open
Week 4 S2 Starts
Week 5 S3 ends
Week 6 S3 Signups open
Week 7 S3 starts
week 8 S1 ends
week 9 S1 Signups open
Week 10 S1 starts
in other words a round starts on weeks 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25..... meaning you never have to wait more than 3 weeks for a new round to start.
This would not require any extra work for bcart, he just needs to be present to click the end round button, and reset server, the open Signups.
In addition, it could reduce the problem of round start lag for both servers by offsetting the initial attacks and probings.
Less stress on the servers, on BCart, and on the players. I approve this idea.
