I'd suggest the same way it worked on Bristlebane. As I rememeber it, basically anyone who wanted to lead a raid on Vox or Nagafen (those two were the only raid encounters on this system) would register in a forum somewhere, and then a random drawing would be done every so often to see who gets the next dragon. The winner would get like a week to raid the dragon, and if they failed to do so someone else got a chance.

Commence laughing.
Well put this system you had in the past on the P99 server. You have numbers above 1000 consistently throughout the week, most of which have at least a level 50+(not that it takes more than a day or 2 to get 50).
All of which would like a non-competitive chance to kill a dragon.
It takes maybe 6 people to kill naggy or vox with donal's bp's. Maybe 12 or so without.
Do you are going to have up to about 12 (est.) per dragon per week. Lets say that miraculously by random chance every group of people wanting to kill a dragon got a chance and there were no repeats through out that time. With that criteria it would take 83 weeks to get through 1000ppl (peak population). There are ALOT more players then you see on the server at any given time.

Do you see the inherent problem here?
