Default An idea too settle this whole skill level dispute thing

So many people are complaining about zerging giant guilds, camping raid targets, questionable strategies (just to name a few), etc...


Do we really know how good the current raiding guilds are at this content? It’s impossible to tell any more. Some guilds are bloated with players but might be able to kill targets with far less while some guilds rarely get a chance to prove themselves because they refuse to mass recruit. Well how about this idea?

To start, this would be done on the test server (for obvious reasons) and raid loot will not transfer to the live p99 server.

Any guild that wants in on the contest can enter.
1 test for each of the following raid targets:

Vox
Naggy
Inny
CT
Spiroc Lord
(maybe) Dojorn

We pre-determine the amount of players that are allowed for each target. (Example: 3 groups for naggy, 4 groups for CT, or something like that).

Only the guild and a guide are present.
Guide records the entire fight.

Things to score on can include length of time to down target, number of deaths.

Video is posted online so that in addition to the raw numbers we can also see how clean each raid went down.

Nice controlled environment. No excuses, no belly aching.

To be determined what state the zones should be in. (Should giants be up and available to charm as pets?
How much of Fear should be up at the time of engagement? (Nobody wants to sit around watching a full fear clear.
Are the Bladestorms going to be up?
Do we include mini-bosses like Dracho and Maestro?
etc...

How do people feel about this?
