I actually really, really like this idea. 6v6 pvp, where any member from the week before couldnt be in the "group" for the next week, or hell the next 2 weeks to encourage the rotation of players and the inclusion of everyone. We could really turn this into a fun event.

If you could only use a certain player per month? How would IB fare without thier major tanks? Transcendence can only use Gildiss and Mythoxxus for 2 weeks out of a month, how strategically do we use them in the 6 man group?

Would be a lot of fun and we could really put an end to a lot of the whining and such. Would love to see the "fan" turnout as well.

Bets per fight? per round? would be a fun diversion from the daily grind (of eq, sheesh hehe)

Cheers hasbinbad, great idea, can really run with this one.
Lets get a Poll going?

I like most of your ideas and I like the spirit of all of them! Whatever the contest details may end up being is open for the guild leaders to decide (upon threat of boring rotation). I honestly think that with the right set of rules this would not only be fair, but solve all of our issues, bring us all together, and be a lot of fucking fun. Not to mention great practice for the rumored BotB??

Win/win imho.

Honestly it would be very interesting but also very difficult. Setting it and having nobody interfear would be a problem without GM intervention. a Simple assigning a designated member or each guild who random 100 would be the simplist solution and hard to argue.

easily screen shotted and witnessed by numerous people. If you all decide to to do some 1on1 or 6on6 you could arrange some arena time.

But ultimately the decision is between your two guilds. The GM staff will simply review and agree or disagree. But I can say I like this idea. Simplicity I think is best to start. can always get creative down the line when the anger wears off alittle.

Hes got a point. We could use your system for a bit with randoming or rotating first picks. I'd love to do it where, say we had 3 guilds:

Say its our week. Trans takes Sky, As a whole as first pick.
IB takes Hate, as a whole.
Guild C takes Fear, as a whole.
Guild C takes naggy
IB takes vox
and Trans grabs Phinny.

First pick in first round gets last pick in second round, and vise versa. We could do picks on an agreed upon time during the week, before new spawns are hit for naggy vox and such.

Could go with something like this until we are good and ready with a solid idea and system for pvp, and just use PVP instead of dice or selection system.

Idk. Using your thread to vent some ideas and get some words out there, but tweaked your idea a bit to do it. Gotta find something that works, although im cool with the rotation we have now tbh. Trying to be creative here hehe.

Would I be remiss in asking for volunteer GM support ensuring no interference? I totally 100% understand the GM wish to not be hassled over this petty bullshit, but if this was more akin to an event, could we get some support? Seriously if as many people could agree to something like this it would be a big move for the server as far as politicking with each other goes.. All the hatred could possibly be changed to competitive camaraderie which is what I for one - and I am sure many others (including GMs?)- would prefer.

Determining PVE raids based upon terribly balanced EQ PVP? Bad idea.

This is the third idea I'll put my support behind. Here's the list so far:

1) Free-for-all.
2) Force merge Transcendence and Inglourious Basterds. (Bubbles' idea!)
3) PVP draft.

I'd go for number 2 or more importantly, number 3.

3>2>1 Imo, But im up for any of them. FFA is honestly just as cool with me as everything else.

I've honestly thought of a force merge, but the only problem with that is that i do know certain people would have issues with other certain players. I'd guess that both guilds would have to be disbanded and leaders would have to re-choose who to invite imo, as to not get fights... Idk. It would definitely be a tough decision and tough to work out...

That's the greatest part of option 2. Could you imagine, after all this drama on the forums for the past 2 months, everyone being plopped together in the same guild without seeing it coming?

I find this idea very appealing. Also, disable the /guildremove ability of said players.
