What is BDA doing to work towards a raid agreement?

i could get on board with the VS/Trak/Inny/CT being a 1/2/ffa split only if other concessions were made as well from the hardcore side, such as full repops carrying over the current tier of mobs, fairly large windows (something like 6 hours to benefit the very casual) and that tier 2 mobs never fall into a sitaution where they can just be sniped by tier 1, and no clauses that drag tier 2 guilds into tier 1

So, you suggest that:

1st CT: Tier 1 Lock (Tier 1 guilds likely do FFA as their tier's preferred allocation style)
2nd CT: Tier 2 Lock (Tier 2 guilds likely do some form of friendly raiding, however they decide), with a few hours of leeway for the Tier 2 people to clear their lock, in whatever way Tier 2 guilds decide to allocate their locks.
3rd CT: FFA (Most likely Tier 1, but with the potential for a Tier 2 to put up and try to take it through more aggressive competition)
4th CT: Tier 1 Lock
etc.

This is less than 50% of the split, but it maintains that there are epic mobs in the casual play base for them to get their epics. Not as much, but enough, and a casual guild that really puts up (for the FFA) can earn through a hardcore style of play, an additional CT.

If that's right, that seems interesting. The most important thing is that it creates a system in which no one guild can stranglehold epic mobs again, so players that work hard in their respective tiers have the potential to earn their epic, without being forced to buy it from the upper tiers.
