The problem is that these resources (whether items or the dragons you get to kill to maybe get the items) are limited. With instanced content, everyone who wants to raid can do so every week. With non-instanced content (i.e. here on p99), only one guild can kill whatever mob we're discussing. Without instances, there's no way for you to get loot without someone else losing their opportunity.
Right, and for ten years that guild has been the first to engage or the first to win the CotH race or the first to play whatever non-classic but as-close-as-we-can-come-to-classic competition.

I just think letting some other criteria, even a pure random roll (like the one I won to lead the Vox raid on Bristlebane), for some raid content would be nice because it would let people other than those "competitors" see that content. People not in guilds, people in smaller guilds, etc. Again, it's about more people getting to play classic EQ and see its content.

What is the advantage to rotations over instances?
They're classic (to a debatable degree); instances very clearly aren't, as they weren't introduced until LDoN.
