Also, as a follow up:

I think the biggest thing that could be done, BY FAR, is simultaneous repops that are announced at least 24 hours in advance.

I will acknowledge that with only ONE uber-guild no variance might yield better results. Assuming spawn timers do NOT drift (for whatever reason), no variance might be superior.

However, with two (or more) uber guilds a variance will yield better results. The variance was initially implemented because of the socking issues and it did solve them fairly well. It is obviously not without problems, but the question is where do we emphasize efficiency?

Do we promote a stable environment should two big guilds exist? (Variance)

Or do we promote a stable environment where many smaller guilds can flourish despite the presence of an uber guild? (no variance AND controlling for spawn timer drift)

P.S. Non-authoritative FTE shouts for informational purposes only would be extremely convenient.
