I'm liking the point system idea the best. Otherwise we basically have to draw an arbitrary line between what guilds are "casual enough" to partake of these simulated repop days while the more hardcore guilds get to compete for normal variance (poopsock) based respawns.

If everything was assigned a point value, and a guild couldn't go over their value per week, then guilds would have to work together and with themselves to choose what mobs they are choosing to go after each week. It could even be broken down a bit further in the case of epic mobs if so desired, where Inny locks out CT from being attempted, or vice versa, so more peole can start getting epics.
Not hard to assign. If you try at all for content beyond the first pop of the month for any given mob you are outta the casual pool.

That right there implies that casuals only get to raid once a month on a certain day, though.

Variance prevents all mobs from spawning on the same day all the time. the first spawn for any give mob of the month could be day one to day 7 of the month.

What would be best way to come up with a point system? Should we make a new thread and put all ideas on the best way to come up with that, I'd like to see it elaborated on more.

As it stands bi weekly repops , lower variance , or Sloan style are my favorites but I'm willing to look more into a pt system cause I dont fully understand it and how complex it could be.

For a Classic server, all these ideas are quite anti-Classic [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Point values...WTF?!

idk man, I played classic and i can definitely say people were tracking for hundreds of hours per week to raid...

/sarcasm

Obviously Classic doesn't work here or the Staff would make it classic and obviously what we had before wasn't working or staff wouldn't say it needed to change.

So either look elsewhere or close your eyes, but either way people need to stop crying about change.

No idea what you are smoking Phisting. Repops are classic; huge variance is not classic; player made agreements are classic.

GMs keep asking the players to sort it out on our own. I don't think we can realistically expect any server/code changes to happen.

I disagree. We were already promised that the GM's were looking very hard at repops months ago. FTE shouts were finally implemented, and I think simulated repops would take like 5 minutes to implement.

If we, as the players, actually get together and act like rational and considerate individuals, I think GM Grinch's heart might grow 3 sizes that day.
