Mack 0 Posted June 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Rather than starting a crazy large PM Chain, this seemed easiest. I have two questions: 1. Shall we go ahead and, right now, trim the posting time limit from 48 Hours (2 Days) down to 24 Hours (1 Day)? It will speed things up. 2. Shall we go ahead and, right now, start the combat? I get that about half of the players haven't done their traveling post yet, but I feel like things are starting to drag. Link to post Share on other sites

Kalesh 0 Posted June 9, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 9, 2016 An idea I'd LIKE to bring forth is 'instanced' event bosses if numbers get too high. Like have two seperate threads for the same fight but with different people. That will canonically be considered as one fight with all players present. It's not perfect but that's just my idea. Doesn't limit numbers but decreases wait times. There's the problem of only a limited number of tanks etc. It's not perfect. To prevent discrepancies you could keep boss rolls consistent between instances instead of rerolling in both, or just ignore this part. The main problem is obviously the killing blow bonus item in such situations. That said I'mma vote 'both'. The 48 hour rule to me was best used for small groups while 24 hour like on past floor bosses is best for big groups IMO. Link to post Share on other sites
Takneil 0 Posted June 9, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) I agree that this has been slow, but I am actually kinda hyped that we have so many players for one event :). Looking on it now the time limit isn't that bad, this site manages it's event time very well compared to the last one I was in. With Takneil/Crimsa I have only been in a total of total, Lyrica and This current one. The last event I was in, took a year. Between only 6 players on that site. So while I did vote for both to happen, I want it to be known that right now this isn't the worst rut to be in for an event XD. Edited June 9, 2016 by Takneil Link to post Share on other sites
Rain 0 Posted June 9, 2016 #5 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I would say that.. given that we're a fairly large group, going into combat faster would help. If it were the other group. (frontliners) hey can probably handle some RP first. Link to post Share on other sites
XWuZHeAR 0 Posted June 9, 2016 #6 Share Posted June 9, 2016 oh thank god you all also voted for both Link to post Share on other sites
Mack 0 Posted June 9, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Once we have a simple majority, in terms of the people in the thread voting, then we will adopt whichever solution has the highest number of votes. You may vote once per account, so if you have multiple characters in the Event you may vote once with each of them. Link to post Share on other sites
Baldur 0 Posted June 9, 2016 #8 Share Posted June 9, 2016 I think the majority has spoken :P Especially if we want to finish this event before next month's begins. I mean, if everyone took their 24 hours to post, it's over a month before we get to the boss, let alone fight him :P Link to post Share on other sites
Mack 0 Posted June 9, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Yup, I'll give this poll until this afternoon. But, if there's no significant voting change... and I don't think there will be then we'll move into combat and trim the posting time to 24 hours. I'll make an announcement about it in several places. Link to post Share on other sites
Mack 0 Posted June 9, 2016 Author #10 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Looks like a majority of the players in the Event Raid have spoken. Sometime tonight, I'll jump us into Combat. Remember to attack your group's target, if you attack anything other than your group's designated target before your designated target has been eliminated your attack will be nullified.
