Learn to mobilize instead of petitioning imo.
I was not present for Fay, but I just wanted to make a general comment on what has been the custom for outdoor dragons. Generally, numbers in a zone have not materially mattered so long as a good faith mobilization is underway. In the majority (Possibly all?) of cases that I am aware of, a directly pulled mob (no kite, straight point A to point B), has never arrived in camp before a reasonably sized raidforce was present.

Also, TMO specifically tends to shy away from peeling kited mobs. I cannot remember the last time we've done it (if ever, though it is very possible). This is due to, again, how the raid scene developed during the IB/TMO days. TMO has had far too many negative consequences when peeling mobs that are supposedly kited. This, in turn, is responsible for TMO's reliance on FRAPS and petitions in such scenarios.

For good or ill, those are the established customs.
