By definition, any system you propose will have winners and losers. By definition, half the people at the current roll will be losers if the system changes (... and in all honestly, I think some of the people who think they would be "winners" will actually be losers in the new system).

So you're welcome to try and get half the people at the agreements to vote against their own interests (and against classic EQ) ... but again, I don't think it's going to happen.
It's not really purely against their own interests though. It's reducing their chance now in order to guarantee a much higher chance later. I'm not doing Angry Goblin, but personally if I were I would view that as a much better trade off than just perpetually rolling.

People do this with the URN system for example. It's not like it's totally unheard of for there to be a player agreement that essentially awards you DKP for being at the camp.

Seems like a pretty fair system to me. And it's technically not unclassic if it's a player agreement since there were player agreements in classic (it would be unclassic if the staff just decided to create this system).
