I think existing FTE rules would just apply in that scenario. With everything up simultaneously, FTE actually works pretty well since you can always find an unengaged target somewhere. For any normal spawns that arent claimed, you'll still be looking at FTE races anyway. This only eliminates the FTE race for a target a guIld has determined is high priority.

Just for clarification, let's say a guild claims Trak and has 20 members hanging out in Seb. There's nothing stopping the remaining members of that guild from FTE'ing to their heart's content elsewhere as long as they also maintain a presence at Trak, correct?

I think FIF would be an interesting fix to some of the issues on the server, but it mostly benefits guilds like AG and hurts power-hitters that can currently tackle NToV, so I really don't see it going anywhere.
