The solution to the TOV problem is actually very simple. Keep the racing as normal but root all mobs in place. But guilds are not required to kill once they win the race. They get 24/48 hours to kill the FTE. And they are allowed as many FTEs as they want. So during the 24/48 hours they can setup a raid/clear force (at a time of their choosing) and they clear in to NTOV and kill the Dragons they got FTEs on during the racing. This allows the "fun racing" the these guilds like to do. Along with the "fun clearing" other people like to do.

This would also let people experience NTOV instead of sitting at zone/exit staring at the walls. This would eliminate trains and overlapping pulls.
I like this idea, but maybe just make it where guilds have the week to kill them with hard respawn time once a week with say 8hr variance. So liek Dragons all pop within an 8hr window on Sunday or something. Everyone races as the pop. And then has until the repop the following Sunday to kill them. And time of death is unrelated to repop. The dragons repop Sunday no matter what.

Would have to change vuuls of course so he don't summon.

I don't think it will, just due to few other choices. Unless there's a really inspiring officer among their ranks who wants to pick up the reins.

Serious question:

Why not move the line to the center pillar?

Would allow casual guilds to get a head start on WToV dragons by positioning themselves on the West end and would force A/A to split their force on the North/East end when Dozekar is in window, limiting the field of competition for anyone who wishes to oppose them and focus their efforts on North or East.

Just have to agree to kill dragons in their wing like god intended and this is clearly a superior race spot to the door or the stairs. You're going to have to do this anyways once Nilbog fixed binds and Haynar fixes lazy aggro and Rogean gets pissed at the continually trivializing of the zone and mandates killing in their wings. Get ahead of the curve P99er.
Or you know... join Phinigel.

Fighting in the wing + foot races wouldn't work because...

Guild A gets FTE and starts clearing to Lord Vyemm or Lady Nev or Aary or wherever. Dragon #2 in North spawns. Runners train the f*ck out of Guild A.

Not like training gets punished.

BDA had setup in ToV through the first door on the left in a cubby in order to protect everyone at the zone in from a botched pull. We tagged Ikatiar and brought him solo to that cubby. Around 40% a massive botched pull from Forsaken was dragged into the entrance thus wiping our attempt.

Here's the rundown:

[Sun Dec 27 18:12:45 2015] Ikatiar the Venom engages Chest!

Then 3 minutes later ForsakenGard start working on their CH chain in preparation for a pull

[Sun Dec 27 18:15:38 2015] Treeborn shouts, '#111 - CH - #111 << Legday >>
[Sun Dec 27 18:15:43 2015] Arum shouts, '222<<< Legday >>>
[Sun Dec 27 18:15:45 2015] Doxx shouts, '# 333 - CH - # 333 <| Legday |>

A giant botched pull of Lady Nev AND Jorlleag come all the way to the entrance and destroy our Ikatiar attempt

[Sun Dec 27 18:16:11 2015] Jorlleag engages Zercury!
[Sun Dec 27 18:16:11 2015] Metalopolis tells the guild, 'Lady Nevederia'
[Sun Dec 27 18:16:12 2015] Jorlleag engages Valse!
[Sun Dec 27 18:16:13 2015] Doabarrelroll tells the guild, '#2 Sweet Cast now'
[Sun Dec 27 18:16:14 2015] Docvan tells the guild, '#4 cheesus CAST now!'
[Sun Dec 27 18:16:16 2015] Dagarn the Destroyer engages Eliashib!
[Sun Dec 27 18:16:17 2015] Jorlleag engages Prometh!

Here's a fun convo with the Forsaken rep!

[Sun Dec 27 18:17:56 2015] Reep tells you, 'gtfo out of tov wtf was that'
[Sun Dec 27 18:18:30 2015] You told Reep, 'are you retarded? we had ikatiar clean, that was all your adds'
[Sun Dec 27 18:18:38 2015] Reep tells you, 'shut up.'
[Sun Dec 27 18:18:40 2015] Reep tells you, 'get out of tov'

The conversation doesn't get much better than that.

We engaged Ikatiar almost 4 full minutes before any other pulls. ForsakenGard knew we were at that cubby killing Ikatiar, they didn't care, and they "pulled" two dragons to the entrance and completely destroyed our attempt. Then they had no interest resolving the issue as you can see.

1) Pulling to the open entrance room is stupid, the cubby we used at least offers protection from a botched pull for the folks sitting at the entrance

2) We were completely robbed of that Ikatiar and were basically forced to give up on ToV during the repop because Forsaken had no intention of ceasing their bullshit.

I would appreciate some action taken. Thanks.
Resulting in this suspension! *fart noise*

Volume of offenses = 5 days (so they aren't missing a cycle) and some mostly irrelevant targets

Awakened gets triple 10 day suspensions, lol, consider phinny.
