Okay nice we're getting somewhere now. So you're thinking 2 days are complete FFA days and rotation can be for other days of the week. Or it's just FFA in general.
My concern here for pure FFA is this means small groups could clear 1-4 whenever they want, and would block islands 5-7 majority of the time, as they require a stronger force. Now you're blocking later islands more often.
Also if it's pure FFA you're removing clearing the islands twice a day in some cases, because people could roll in halfway through the day and clear the island. Less epics, less loot.
Lastly, how do you ever organize trying to key/corpse effectively? Now you have to go up more frequently to see what's up, requires more effort from everyone, lots more recorpsing.
All in all I see less loot, less epics getting done, tons of petitions to GMs, lots of blocking. So you want complete FFA because it favors your guild, and ruins Sky for 8+ other guilds?
Sounds worse for the server players & GM, I however don't mind a 5 day rotation with 2 FFA days. That's a compromise, but tbh I think you'll not enjoy numerous different groups going up at really off hours and clearing the early islands, thus the FFA days become crazy difficult to key or contest anything.
Also you'll have groups key through 7 and then use FFA days to pick off the 3-4 quick mobs they care about (Like Gorg --> KoS --> EoV --> HoV).
Sounds easier to get in contract with a guild on the slot and work things out.

Recorpsing is something you would already be doing with your current rotation, I fail to see how FFA days would effect this. Regardless, lets be honest with ourselves here, the only thing this rotation currently favors is the guilds that are on it. As for particular groups keying and hitting certain mobs, I'm sure that will happen, and I'm sure that already happens as is, hence the rotation put in place. On live, these kind of problems no longer exist, due to instancing. Even normal exp zones are now instanced when a certain player limit is reached. But what really brings me back to this server, and the immersion is the race, the contesting, the competition against the other guilds as you go for the boss.
Hence my distaste for these player agreements in general, on Tholuxe Paells we didn't have these rotations, nor did we on Firiona Vie.
