More uses for Max Active Players

The tourny game types I posted previously are based on the Player Options : Max Active Players setting in custom Slayer games. But, you can also change just about any game to play like this. A few ideas:

A multiplayer game of Oddball where only two players are active at a time. 1-v-1 is one of my favorite way to play Oddball, but this would allow more people in the game.

A King of the Hill game like this would definately change your strategy. It might be better to breifly leave the hill to kill your opponent than just squat there and wait for them to come to you..

A Juggernaut match where the juggie only has to worry about one person a time. Might want to reduce the number of power ups that Juggernaut has. You'd also avoid those machine-gun juggie changes:

New Juggernaut!
New Juggernaut!
New Juggernaut!
New Juggernaut!

I'm going to have to try a few of these out and post the results.
