I agree with this, but the reason OP wants to overwrite the minigame damage is not because of what you said, but because minigames made his server lag.
True, which is the reason I didn't actually name the function. Much as I don't like the attitude others are giving toward using one's own minigame system, if he thinks it's causing lag he's doing something wrong and shouldn't be handed anything else he could potentially rip to shreds.
