+## Auto Scale Allow/Deny List
 
-The allow/deny list configuration allows limiting which players can scale up servers when using the `-auto-scale-up` option or the `AUTO_SCALE_UP` env variable. Global allow/deny lists can be configured that apply to all backend servers, but server-specific lists can be added as well. There are a few important things to note about the configuration:
+The allow/deny list configuration allows limiting which players can scale up servers when using the `-auto-scale-up` option (`AUTO_SCALE_UP` env variable) and which players can cancel an active down scaler when using the `-auto-scale-down` option (`AUTO_SCALE_DOWN` env variable). Global allow/deny lists can be configured that apply to all backend servers, but server-specific lists can be added as well. There are a few important things to note about the configuration:
 - The `mc-router` process will not automatically pick up changes to the config. If updates to the config are made, the router must be restarted.
 - Allowlists always take priority over denylists. This means if a player is included in a sever-specific allowlist and the global denylist, the player will still be considered allowed on that server. If a player is listed in both a global allowlist and denylist, the denylist entry will be ignored.
 - Player entries only require a `uuid` or `name`. Both will be checked if specified, but otherwise a `uuid` will take priority over a `name`.

+The `-auto-scale-up` flag argument makes the router "wake up" any stopped backend servers by changing `replicas: 0` to `replicas: 1`. The `-auto-scale-down` flag argument makes the router shut down any running backend servers with no active connections by changing `replicas: 1` to `replicas: 0`. The scale down will occur after a configurable (using the `-auto-scale-down-after` argument) waiting period, such as `10m` (10 minutes), `2h` (2 hours), etc. If any players connect to the server during this period the scale down will be canceled. It is recommended to set this value high enough so a temporary player disconnect will not immediately shut down the server (`1m` or higher).
