Another idea that occurs to me would just be to have representatives hang out and roll, but rather than an even roll your guild would get some sort of bonus based on their last kill times. So let's say for example Tunare spawns, and clear times were Riot: 3 hours, F/AG 4 hours, Aegis 5 hours, then the roll might be 0-50 riot, 51-80 F/AG, 81-100 Aegis. I'm sure there would be a million hours of lawyerquesting going into exactly how that roll would work! But it would keep the rotation from blowing up as the smaller guilds would be slower and thus get fewer chances, and it would also maintain an element of competition.
That's how it is now with instant pulls though. In fact it takes a bigger team to FTE something and have an RTE team ready so you don't wipe. With exclusive locks it's just X racers which can be any number

But yea if you wanted to end racing, weighted rolls after the boss pops, based on how many people from each entity show up. 50 riot show up they get 1-49, etc etc. Probably would need a minimum though it'd be silly to hold a lock with a small turnout
