NOT what the thread is about, but I'll go Loraen style and drop my solution anyways. The idea of variance, and by extension the silly extended windows (which actually overall increase the mean spawn time beyond 3/7 days!) has outlived its usefulness and been taken farther than it ever should have. The system to avoid known spawn times needs to be redone, and the obvious solution is a mean-spawns-per-month system where any mob can pop at any time, but on average every 3/7 days as appropriate. Guilds are forced to prioritize their tracking targets, and especially within the framework of some kind sharing agreement with a time-to-engage provision it really prevents tracking from being particularly more onerous than it is now.
