Raid Changes

So just to be curious if it is totally random can the server simulate a patch on Saturday then simulate a patch once again on sunday? Just curious if your gonna have a min/max for simulated patches. Like atleast 3 days in between simulation and no more then 10 days between or technically it could be back to back or 13 days apart correct?

All and all nice work, and i must say lately the raid scene seems to have improved a little anyways. I have noticed lower guilds actually being given some time to engage mobs before the bigger guilds come in and steam roll them over, so thanks to you big guilds for that.

Having sifted through most of this thread, I think it sounds pretty terrific. I think it was suggested (stealin?) breaking the patch mobs into tiers and only allowing guilds a certain amount per tier. I would be absolutely for this if the patch does NOT reset the "regular" mobs, and against it if it does. I think the former would basically provide a little added content, allow ALL guilds to participate in the "patch days", but spread it out more fairly. At the same time the "regular" mobs would be business as usual (for better or worse).

Obviously being in TMO I look out for my own, but I think this would be pretty good for the server in general. While perhaps a bit artificial, and not classic, it may be needed for the health of the community and to give more people a chance to experience the content they have been looking forward to. I don't see how anyone could complain about this proposed system as basically everyone would have a chance at more mobs than they would have otherwise.

I don't think you will see GM's enforce a tier system, though i agree tier system on the "patch day" would pretty much accomplish everything the medium/smaller guilds are asking for. I agree with Reptak "patch day" tier, and regular spawn open season with all the fun that goes along with racing, after all the "patch day" spawns are bonuses. The thing to remember is if the guilds on server just work together they could implement any system they wanted on "patch days", all of us share a love for classic or we wouldnt be here, why don't we come together on this?

There's a Raid Guild sub-forum just for this purpose... any guildleaders wanna roger up for trying to work something out?
