I’m a little surprised Rogean hasn’t done the social experiment of doing 20+ resets over the course of a single week. Just to see what levels of depravity nerds will go to for pixels.

If I were him I’d do a reset every 4-6 hours for a week just to see what happens among the neckbeardiest of neckbeards.

Then maybe turn off raid spawns for a month and see how nerds deal with that too.

So many social experiments that should be performed to see how modern nerds deal with them.

Thought you were banned.

My solution for raiding is to ban Daldaen again.

Quake between 8 and 10 PM EST Christmas eve. Do it again like 12 to 14 hours later, than again 12 or so hours after that. Similar for Thanksgiving Day.

This happened back in the rotation system days one time( at least). Except it was like 3 hours or something. Wasn't enough time to kill all the boss mobs. We lost a CT to the 2nd set of spawns IIRC.

Wait - Am I understanding this correctly that while you were about to engage CT after one quake - ANOTHER quake happened?

they would probably stay on for all of it, and collect as much gear they dont need as fast as they can

P99 was 1000% better when there were 2 guaranteed quakes a month. I've been raiding for a couple years now and I still can't believe people screen share / face track mobs for hours upon hours. That's basically torture. I just show up for the batphones.
