Awful in every way imaginable.

Lets see.. Gina triggers, Batphones, 30 seconds to tab over and react, 200 people on the spawn since no limit of guild representatives.. Yah totally won't be abused.

Rotations are fine and dandy, till people that have never/rarely ever competed for the mob wants the same piece of the pie that the top guild/guilds gets. E.g. AEGIS

What I propose is to randomly train mobs on the spawn point to punish people that fully autoclick afk by having them turn in to other random npc...

Isn't everything you just listed also something that happens / can happen with the current system except for the 30 seconds to tab over and react?

GINA triggers and batphones are both irrelevant in the current system, you need to react instantly. 200 people on the spawn also isn't currently an issue

The current system works fine, and I happen to know someone with far from ideal ping that wins the turn-in with some regularity. If anyone is suspicious of autofiring, I strongly suggest petitioning it, cheaters deserve to be banned.

I'm assuming the '200 people on the spawn' is a gross exaggeration that would never actually occur. Under the current system there tend to be 'a lot' of people on the spawn. I've seen the very start of windows be maybe 4 people, but usually by the end of the window it's more like a dozen. I don't think giving people 30 seconds to react would somehow increase that number from 12 to 200, unless you think there are nearly 200 people that want rings but are simply being stopped by their inability to not alt-tab out to netflix. And that's largely what option 1 would do - allow people socking Dain to pay less attention so it's less miserable. Option 2 goes further and eliminates the poopsock entirely with the exception of the roll winner.

Current server rules favor low ping in most situations. Needs fixing staff please and thank you.

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 specifically know someone with ping much worse than mine that is lightning fast at turn-in. The problem lies with you, not your ping.

I honestly thought this idea might be a joke at first. Seems OP was serious.
