Ring 8 roll

Ostepop · #1 10-04-2019, 07:19 AM

Currently there is nothing on the wiki about the ring 8 roll player agreement. I've tried to find out how it's done, and there appears to be 3 different versions currently:

Quake time (minus 30?)
On the hour before spawn
Exactly one hour before spawn

To prevent conflict, going forward there should be only one way to do this.
Roll based on quake time is an awful idea considering how many hours the spawn time slides, and how excluding that is towards players in non US time zones.
The easiest is likely for the roll to be an hour before Gloradin spawns.

Please feel free to contribute towards the wiki. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
In regards to the silent agreement among players. Hotly debated topic..

I'll happily contribute, but it's hardly a player agreement if I just put in how I think it should be. Hence this thread [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I've been trying to find out what actual time it currently is to no success.

The fewer that show up to roll, the higher the chance to win. There is no incentive whatsoever to share the timer with strangers.
If you find out how to get the spawn time, do you think an hour in advance is a good time for the roll?

I get that but like at the end of the day you could sit their for like 24 hours MAX and figure it so why not just be nice you know?

True. Can you keep me updated on the timer then?

Anyways, I'll see if I can figure out how to wiki and make a ring 8 player agreement page after the weekend, so please leave thoughts here on how it should be.
