**Don’t be last** is a minigame plugin: every competing player gets one random challenge per round (mining, placing blocks, eating, …). You have to do this challenge as fast as possible. If you are the last one to complete the challenge you will be eliminated.<\/p>\n
Designed for a medium group of friends who want quick, tense challenges against each other.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

## Requirements<\/p>\n
| | |
\n|—|—|
\n| **Server** | Paper (or compatible fork) **1.21+** |
\n| **Java** | **21** |
\n| **Players** | At least **2** survival (non-spectator) players to start a session (configurable) |
\n| **Dependencies** | **None** |<\/p>\n
Built against **Paper `1.21.11`**; test on the Paper build you run in production.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
## How it works<\/p>\n
1. An admin runs **`\/lastcall start`**. Everyone who is in Survival (not Spectator) at that moment is locked into the roster for this match.<\/p>\n
2. Each round, the plugin picks a challenge from a large pool. Difficulty is limited by how many players are still competing.<\/p>\n
3. While the round is active
\n – If exactly one competing player has not completed the challenge, they get a large title + chat message and are eliminated.
\n – If two or more players are still incomplete, no elimination countdown runs until someone catches up.<\/p>\n
4. If everyone has completed at least once this round:
\n – With mercy enabled, and everyone has completed it within time, everyone survives.
\n – Without mercy, the last player will be eliminated.<\/p>\n
5. **Eliminated** players become **spectators** until the match ends or an admin runs.<\/p>\n
6. The last competing player wins.<\/p>\n
**Mid-join:** players who were not on the roster when the session started are set to Spectator if they join during a match.<\/p>\n

## Commands<\/p>\n
Main command: **`\/lastcall`** \u2014 alias **`\/lc`**.<\/p>\n
| Command | Who | Permission | Description | —<\/p>\n ## Permissions<\/p>\n | Permission | Default | Purpose | —<\/p>\n ## Configuration (`config.yml`)<\/p>\n On the server, edit **`plugins\/LastCall\/config.yml`**. The bundled file starts with a **comment block** listing every **time-related key** (all in **seconds**).<\/p>\n After editing by hand, run **`\/lastcall reload`** (or restart), then **`\/lastcall times`** to confirm what the server loaded.<\/p>\n ### `game`<\/p>\n | Key | Default | Meaning | ### `round`<\/p>\n | Key | Default | Meaning | ### `mercy`<\/p>\n | Key | Default | Meaning | In-game without editing the file: **`\/lastcall mercy window ### `season`<\/p>\n | Key | Default | Meaning | ### `difficulty`<\/p>\n | Key | Default | Meaning | —<\/p>\n ## HUD (what players see)<\/p>\n – **Title** (center of the screen) when a new round starts \u2014 the task stays visible for several seconds. Competing roster players who join mid-round get the same title. —<\/p>\n ## Installation<\/p>\n 1.
