ST Rotation Proposal

[xdrcfrx]

why should AG and F get equal slots when they raid together as a single entity nearly 100% of the time?

why are kittens not included?

[Ovaltine]

AG/F only team ST in off-hours.

In the times I've made a ST contest after ending rotations, the only kitten I've seen there was a 1 dude /auc WTB 2hnd. Guess kittens didn't really want to play. Can't win if you don't play.

[xdrcfrx]

but you're not talking about winning and losing anymore, you're talking about sharing.

why not share with everyone that can do the content? KWSM killed MoTG earlier this year when the opportunity presented itself, and could kill the others. So why not share with everyone?

[Ovaltine]

You're talking to me like I made the proposed rotation. I was just sharing my thoughts on why the proposer didn't think of kittens when he made that list.

[xdrcfrx]

that's fair, though I think the conclusion that you were also of that opinion was a reasonable one.

Reasonable? Yes.

Not having to compete your way on to the rotation seems bogus.

If kittens were there at least trying, there'd be no way to miss adding them to this proposed rotation.

There should be no rotation until you FTE that golem. Once you do, you earn a spot and that golem starts getting rotated once there's two or more groups. If you fail to kill your golem within X hours of spawning, anyone else can FTE and bump you off the rotation in which case you need to re-earn your slot. They can also FTE past you within the window and bump you if you wipe.

Assuming 4 or more capable guilds, this also offers the option for one guild to hold out and not only take all the golems, but also affect the rotation. On a repop, maybe Kittens decide they don't like Riot and take their golems but leave AG's and Freedom's up? Now Riot has to compete to get their slot back by contesting Freedom's or AG's golem. Whose will they take?

Historically on blue guilds didn't get a slot on a rotation until they could kill the mob on a FTE basis(atleast as far as kunark went).

Ah, but that's not uniformly true. there was the BG / KWSM / AEGIS Tunare slot. Don't recall any of those entities getting FTE on tunare or killing her solo.

Welfare mobs for me, not for thee. we get it.
