Baalzy, your link measures characters not actual players, but if anything that should at least not hurt TMO.

Also, Xasten, you are missing the context. Unbrella wanted Rogean to despawn the efreeti and other non-raid mobs that drop nice gear. Rogean pointed out that he was being a sociopath, and Unbrella starting whining about how FE and TMO were the only people on the server that mattered.

Apparently if you combine Full Circle and Flawless Victory you get a guild with more members than FE. How the hell?

That's a database of 13,609 characters.

That does nothing to tell us about the number of players. The only thing we have to go off of are the nightly server numbers which hover around 1,000. TMO alone has over 120 active players. Also, you've yet to address the question of why should we count people that have no demonstrable stake in the raid scene.

TMO, FE, and IB are certainly not the majority of the server, but when you discount those who do not raid several different groups will be identifiable. While these three guilds are are not a majority of those concerned with the end game, they are very likely a strong plurality.

I think he was pointing out how we're being hurt by the raid suspension more than the other guilds who are just trying to prolong the raid ban to try and get what they want.

You should not be allowed to negotiate in the Raid Discussion forums. You are very rude and illogical.

Xasten, are you stating that TMO players have fewer alts on average than players in other guilds? The character instead of player comparison only makes you look larger than you really are.

I think the estimate is quite reasonable: TMO/FE/IB are outnumbered by the casual scum by 2-3:1, making you some 30% of the endgame scene. And if things were to become less competitive, it would be 5-6:1 after all of the people who got a whiff of the raid scene and quit in disgust came back.

Furthermore, Rogean used the term minority because Unbrella wanted to despawn camps that were available to people far removed from the raid scene (e.g. efreeti).

There are so many things wrong with those posted statistics I'd be embarrassed to post it.

TMO/FE/IB also keep very tight rosters with active players.

I would like to know how many of those are active toons and how many are toons, tagged, that sit lonely, never knowing the joys of being logged in.

If you said this at any academic conference, they would beat you to death with their pocket protectors.
