Okay, so... here's the deal... I'm tired of people not taking upgrades for their gear because it's a minor upgrade or it's only runeslots. Also I'm tired of people complaining about points and lastly, our point keepers are burnt out on people beating them up for little mistakes. So, following are the new loot rules:

1. I will remain Master Looter and will loot council for Orange and Pink level gear

2. People will get the chance to roll for a Need vs Greed roll for purple gear, the rules for those are:

a. You may roll need if the item is an UPGRADE for your MAIN SPEC, you may not roll if you already have the piece of gear or if you want it for a costume piece.

b. You may roll greed if the item is an UPGRADE for your OFF SPEC -or- if you want it for a rune slot upgrade and if no one needs either then we'll roll greed for costume pieces if NO ONE NEEDS THEM FOR OFF SPEC OR RUNE SLOT UPGRADES (which will be useless after the patch anyway)

3. I will still just roll for trash assignments like usual.

4. YOU MAY NOT TAKE MORE THAN 2 (that's TWO) PIECES OF GEAR PER RAID UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NO ONE NEEDS THE GEAR OR YOU'RE THE ONLY PERSON OF YOUR CLASS AND SPEC ON. This is to help even out the distribution of the loot.

5. You will be an adult about RNG... I DONT GIVE A FUCK ABOUT YOUR BAD ROLLS KEEP IT TO YOURSELF.

That being said, this really won't affect many members of the raid, because there are only a couple pairs of people for each class. (eg. 1 warrior tank, 1 stalker tank, 2 stalkers, 2 dps espers) the only people who are really gonna pay for this is the Medics (sorry Zorph, Bang and Malpractice) we're gonna be arm wrestling for gear.


these are the rules now, get over it....

now, saturdays have proven to be a terrible day for raiding for all of us, so I'll put up a vote for changing the 3rd day of our raid, please vote for your prefered day, all raid times will stay the same to avoid confusion. You may choose multiple times so pick the days you want..
 
I can dig it.

I think most of us are team players enough to know where the loot should go to further I progression. So I don't even see roll offs happening very often.[DOUBLEPOST=1414512617,1414512198][/DOUBLEPOST]Would also throw this in there for anyone who would like not to have a third day.

It will probably be very, very difficult for us to actually clear GA without three days of raiding. For no other reason but it will leave only 1 day to work on progression fights with the first day being clearing the bottom floor. Yes, we will get faster at it doing the first floor, but its never going to be done in an hour. If we want to at least clear GA, we're going to have to raid more than two days a week.
 
Another thing to remember is that changing the day not going to be ideal for everyone. I know Saturday works well for those of us who work a 9-5 Monday through Friday. But if enough people can't make a day happen to give us a real raid on that day, it doesn't make a difference if it's the most comfortable day for the 15 people who can swing it. So if you can make a day but would rather keep it open, it sucks; but we're just going to have to deal with it.

We're trying to coordinate 20 people here, so somebody is going to be mildly inconvenienced. If that is you (it's almost certainly going to be me), let's not make a whole big thing of it, eh?

So with that said, please vote for every time you can make, not just the ones you want. It doesn't matter if 15 people want Saturday if we can't find five more to round out the raid.
