Simple fix: new minimum level req. of 60 to hand in tools to Charisa and complete the quest. Player agreement amended so only level 60's can roll. It would be a nice reward at the top, and there would be no more having to roll against dozens of low level alts.
So then people park one of their 60 toons for the roll and log over to the alt to loot it

I'm fine with losing a roll and then helping out, but the clickfest was a lose/lose situation unless you were one of a few cheaters that won every time. No thanks.
And he denies ever cheating to this day...

I vote for top two rollers (or highest & lowest) duel to the death, winner take all.

This would also discourage but not totally eliminate pre-60 alts. It would also be an entertaining consolation prize for the losers.

Or, roll takes place after the captain dies to ensure everyone puts in effort.

So somebody that didn’t win has to get their tools again?

Loot is not required in this game, if you don't like the rules that were put in place specifically for overall player mental health - just move on and pretend that loot does not exist - i have done this for my shaman, necro and SK epics...

^Incorrect, scout rules weren't put in for mental health, they were put in because 100 players voted on a thread and made a rule that now applies to 2k+ players

It was at this point I decided to no longer be kind to the casuals as they have extreme short term memory. They did this to themselves, unfortunately.

I bought my two bracers of benevolence from some dude with an auto clicker. Best 20k ever spent.

While I like the idea of treating Scout like guild loot .... who is going to show up to every scout roll to take attendance? And what three other players from different guilds are going to keep copies of those attendance records to ensure that no one cheats and changes the numbers?

And whether they said it or not, I'm all but certain the staff's sanity was a factor. The clickfest must have been a frequent source of petitions for them.
