Re: How are we going to optimize field reset?

Consider if you will your suggestion of hauling 8 containers at once.

I'm going to say that's not possible for a single person and difficult for two. Even if it was, after 70 or 80 matches on Thursday their legs and arms will be quivering masses of jelly.

Then they get to come back and do the same again on Friday and Saturday.

If it's being done totally by hand, field reset is going to need to be at least 10 to 12 people and they're going to have to be moving.
So basically focus resources on having an army of field reset people. Why is that an issue? Just make sure they're organized and efficient.
