Hello, I noticed that 1v1 ladder is currently not in the best condition in terms of player activity
Is it possible to bring back notification that a player of my rating is currently looking for an opponent? Just like what we had in python FAF. I think this will encourage players to play ladder more often

Introduction

Hello and welcome to the “Blind” tournament, which will determine the best team of experienced players who can navigate difficult and unusual conditions in 3 vs 3 battle!

Tournament Format
3 vs 3 tournament will be played only on mapgens with "Unexplored" generation type and Strogo`s "No Vision" balance mod developed special for this tourney that changes the viewing radius and lifetime of air units!
All games are BO1;
With loosers bracket;
With Full Share.

Short description
The "Unexplored" generation type of mapgen hides the entire map in the fog of war, which you need to first explore to see things like:
​-map relief
-location of extractors and reclaim

At the beginning you can only see the location of your allies and enemies.

The "No Vision" mod reduces the lifetime of T1 scouts and the overall visibility radius of air units, also it increases the cost of mobile and stationary stealth generators.
The exact details for setting up the mod are written in the rules.
T3 Omni radar are blocked!

All this will significantly reduce the visibility of enemies, which will allow you to come up with new impressive tactics for games, especially at the beginning!

Can you at least somehow justify what is happening? We are losing players, online is decreasing, we need to do something with that, at least just explain what the problem is please.

Yes, this 100% happens during prime time or during major events, for example my latest tournaments, I receive messages from ddosers on the stream about the faf finally dying and all the players moving to other servers.

I mean, last year was probably one of the worst years for FAF in terms of Internet connection stability. and now the situation is only getting worse, I tried to hold several tournaments and in each of them I encountered huge problems with the connection, the last tournament had to be postponed by 20 days.
