Currently, the final round in BP is round 47.

If I'm correct, a round only lasts about 10 seconds and the extra 5 seconds between each round, a total of 15 seconds. So, It would take approximately 12 minutes to get to the final round, and what happens? It ends up as a "tie" and everyone left standing gets a lose, somehow.
Unpleasant for everyone and it doesn't take much to "fix" this.

I suggest that:
1. The number of rounds increases from 47 to 75, this is transient of course, it doesn't have to be 75. As long as number of rounds increase.

2. Beyond round 50, the difficulty increases without bound, literally just make it hard. You can significantly decrease the number of the chosen color. For example, round 30 has 15 blocks of the color you want to stand on, round 51 has only 5.

3. Alternatively, you can make it harder but shortening the time in a round. In late round games, you always have at least 5 seconds to "predict" the color, after those 5 seconds, there's just a few seconds left and those extra seconds decrease as the game progesses. Like before round 8, after the first 5 seconds, theres about 4 seconds before the floor disappears, later on in rounds like 35 or 40, there are 2-1 second/s after the first 5 seconds. The thing is, the time limit never decreases beyond 5 seconds, which means you always have 5 seconds. If it is possible to make it 4 seconds, this would be favorable in this case.

TL;DR, more and harder rounds after round 47.

I don’t think anyone is pro enough for this to be a problem, but sure.

how often do people actually reach 47?
My same question xD
It depends on the players, and it also depends on how often the ppl who are pro enough to reach round 47 almost every time are active.
My personal record is 46 (yes very sad I literally died on round 47 cuz the color was one I hate-), yet it’s just because I’m decent and can’t guess every color all the time
Yeah it would be a good addition if it is common for you to reach round 47 and have other pro players in your game, but then it would still be a low chance to reach 47 cuz not everyone has 100% chance of guessing each and every color correctly and finding it in the short amount of time given to guess, locate, and move to it.
I’m not a BlockParty person, but yes I do enjoy the game and know the techniques to survive it like every other bp legend. But I really don’t reach round 47 very often, nor do other players as the other person or myself ends up dying before then.
It wouldn’t be much of an update that’s worth putting effort to in conclusion.
1. Low chance of ppl reaching that as same as round 47
2. Idk about you, but the difficulty level seems fine enough, as the round gets higher you have like half a second to get on the color by then, unless a lot of other players think it’s too easy still

I agree with this- I have seen people get up to this many rounds and then they both/all get a game draw. It's not going to hurt anything to change it
