Ok... couple things in response to your list Ciner:
Quote:
1. We were following ML, who, while was highly successful, was first run and killed the mobs somewhat slowly. So we had to kill at basicly the same pace, not MLs fault but sucked.
This is why we allow a day between guild raids to allow for spawns to catch up. ML finished on Thursday, Vindication went in on Friday. Technically, you could have waited for Saturday to buy yourself more of a full spawn to start.

2. Ya folks both got 1.5 weeks in NToV your last runs, well, almost in Hoss's case.
Hoss had 8 days. ML had 7 days.

3. Would rather use the Emergancy Patch thing now, cause honestly, as most of you know we are totally rebuilding in some parts of the guild and could use the equip now, not a month or two down the road.
What emergency patch thing? Patches are part of your 7 day stint. Sometimes they will work to your advantage, sometimes they don't. Unfortunately - it's luck of the draw. Regardless - everyone has at least a chance at each of the dragons in their week of raid time.

4. If the next guild in line did go in tomorrow, they would not get there full week before patch hits tuesday in the a.m, which would prob lead to more issues.
Yah, we're well aware patch will hit mid-Hoss raid, and trying to figure out what is most fair to do.
===========================
Due to the fact that we are still working out the fairest way to rotate, and due to perhaps Vindication not understanding that they could have waited a day to start their week long stint (which would have allowed for clearing a bit more on their own pace), Hoss believes that it would be fair to allow them to extend their raid through Saturday.
That would give Vindication 9 days total. And the chance to have cleared all of the zone once, plus 2 days worth of respawn, which should be about 6 additional dragons. Personally, I do not think it is fair to allow one guild 11 consecutive days in NToV in one raid, and this seems a fair way to compromise.
This is not an emergency patch allowance - it is just fair considering we're still working out the best way to do NTOV for all guild's involved.
Hoss will enter NToV on Sunday if anything is leftover/respawning, then continue our raid post patch through Saturday. Obviously if Vindication clears completely tonight and tomorrow, we'd have to wait.
Msg me in IRC if you want to discuss this further, Ciner, and I believe Andaas can be found both in IRC and in game atm.
