More conspiracy theories!

We just want to bolster confidence in the other guilds so that they will compete for things eventually. Show them they can kill these things and encourage them to race us eventually.

It's good to be the King, but it's less fun.

Going into to velious raid's alone would be really lame.

When TR had a monopoly on mobs before the TMO merger they never gave ANYONE a chance at mobs.

Now that we ran them off the server we are showing we are the better guild by hopefully fostering a better community with the guilds at large,

grats on being the only guild on the server that can mobilize 30+ people at any time of the day (examples; Naggy and Inny this morning at 9am) - long live the king

I appreciate more shots at mobs, and I think it was very nice of TMO to start this "endangered dragon list"... but do you really think the reason casual guilds aren't competing is because they have low self-esteem?

Thanks! Because 9am is such a ridiculous hour of the day. I hadn't even had my second cup of coffee yet.

In a word, no. But look what happened to "casual guild" VD. They tasted the pixels raiding with IB and next thing you know they were competing for Trak and playing with us in VP. Catch the bug. Let's race!

isnt 9am on a week day, like, when people are at work? :)

Logging in at 9am cause you got a call on the batphone - most people are, well, you know, going to work at that hour to house and feed his/her family? Doubt it's an issue of confidence as much as it is time commitment. Sure it only takes 10 minutes to log in and kill a target when you get the call but between work, going to the gym, going out with friends, and you know having sex, not everybody is willing to drop everything on a whim and log into P1999. However, some are willing to put in the time and undertake the responsibility and that's why guilds like TMO exist.

With populations declining and people selling off characters (have you seen the EC forum lately?) it's pretty clear TMO is the only one left to do heavy raiding. I hope they don't really expect anymore competition - the reality is that there just aren't enough people in other guilds with the level of dedication as TMO members on this server. If they really want competition they should think about splintering their guild and competing amongst themselves.

It's definitely cool they are doing this promotion though - definitely lets the casual guilds kill a target a week with leisure. No doubt it's propaganda to make them look like the good guys while also expressing their dominance on the raid scene but only they really get off on it - everybody else is like "free shot at raid target? don't need to answer a batphone? awesome"

You can't sell for real money... the only thing they're selling for is other characters/gear. Therefore, the only logical conclusion is, they're still playing.

It takes 20-40 people who don't work or are on the night shift to achieve... shouldn't be that hard, no?
