Don't get defensive: I'm not insulting you. I got your attendance from TMO's website -- it says 36%. If that's mistaken, I apologize. And yes, I get the value of mobilization. In fact, the changes I want would emphasize the value of mobilization far more than it currently matters. You would be far more valuable in a system where you actually have mobilization competition. As of now, you're unopposed on more than half of your dragon/god kills, and the competition is weak at best on the rest. You're either tracking against nobody or tracking against guilds that can only get enough raiders online for a few primetime hours.

53% attendance seems somewhat unbelievable if you don't respond to bat phones during work hours, gym hours, girlfriend hours, or sleep hours -- but let's just assume it's true. That would indeed make you a core member. I have to admit, though -- I'm curious as to how you manage to make more than half of TMO's raids when you work 10 hours a day, workout 90 minutes a day, and sleep -- let's say 7 hours -- a day. Not including a spare moment for your girlfriend, friends, meals, bars, or any other hobbies, that would make you available 5 hours per day during the week. I'd be surprised to find that more than 50% of TMO's raids consistently occur within a 5-hour prime time block.
I sleep like 6 hrs or so, my g/f lives with me so a quick 10 min raid doesn't bother her too much. If you want more informarion into "how I do it" you will have to come shadow me however.

The 36% is lifetime raids attended since the merger, I took a few months off for a move across country, and job hunting.
