It would be great if you could come!! :D




I think thats the way we are going to have to go TBH. I know its hard though, as I drag the health bar off the mob and click like crazy, and if i click after its dead it auto loots it... The other issue is we wont even know which team is the one that can loot it until people start trying...

Maybe if i give the team leaders amps (101's) for their opallos so they cause more damage than anyone else? If I supply the amps fully repaired and they dont pay to repair them when they give them back to me at the end they will still have same costs as everyone else, but the most damage takes all option might work then.... In the grand scheme of things it wont cost me a lot and all loots can still be divided equally (as 101's have no ammo cost)... still an issue if they die and dont shoot the mob as much though....

The problem with more damage is that they get more attacked by the mob (more agro) and then they die sooner, and thus do less damage in total so they wont get the loot.

Perhaps you can set a rule in front, ONLY team leaders loot the dead mob (or try to) and anyone pulling funny business will get kicked from team. (you can see who gets the loot) Perhaps with a 1st warning and request to give the loot to the team leader and otherwise kick. Because it can be possible it gets clicked by mistake.

The only problem would be if it is a big loot that gets looted by mistake by a not eligible looter and he decides to keep it despite the team kick (he would have his profit then anyway)

Stack share would not be usable because you have to trade to many people in the end (and more likely a chance of holding back loot)


More ideas?
 
A little bump and i have decided on the looting system, so would appreciate peoples thoughts...

If we go with the 101 amps on the opallos for team leaders only and switch the rule to all loot to most damage, at least one of the team leaders should be able to loot it. Henceforth makes a good point about if the Team leader dies, but as we have multiple teams there should be no problem. Worst case is somene else in the team loots it, so we need to make it clear at hunt start that loots must be traded with the team leader imeadiatley or they will be kicked from team. - however i think with only team leaders using amps this would be rare.

That should cover it. what yay think?
 
sounds good to me pinky :) looking forward to a fun evening :yay:
 
I hope I can make it, I had you on my FL back when you were my beautician. Long time ago -

Good luck on the big hunt!

I blame Pip, she also told me it was tonight..Untill I was like "you sure?"

I rekon Pip told everyone it was tonight! :silly2:

She's very keen ;)

:D
 
I still think it should be set to "looter takes all" because of the agro issue if some would use A101. It can be very easy if the rules are clear for every one.

Team leader loots, and no-one else. If you loot it give the loot to team leader immediately otherwise kick.
 
Classic Pinky style you nutter :D , I hope I can be there.

I am hoping to get round that by the fact that there will be multiple team leaders so one of them is bound to cause most damage.

I am not keen on the idea that someone who no one knows can join a team and keep clicking loot and passing it to a team leader until they score an ath and log out... Sure this wont happen, but utilising the most damage rule will lessen the chances of anyone but the team leaders from looting and even if they dont manage it, then the pass it straight over rule can be implimented.

or, someone can pop in to MA HQ and threaten the programmers until they put the leader takes all rule back! :D (cant see why they removed it in the first place)
 
Hummmm

Huuummm,

I ran to the shops, washed up - got myself ready logged in and well I seem of of got the wrong week,:ahh:

However I did end up with 30 Pall Stools from Rockchick, who was churning them out in Jason :eek:

- what a bizzare evening.

Mf...:scratch2:

You have some flawed logic there unfortunately :(
It assumes that "most dmg loots the mob", across all participants, but thats not how it works...

Only one of the teams will be able to loot it, that made the most dmg on the mob collectively, and you must be lucky enough that the team leader of that particular team did the most damage within that team...

Leader takes all was such a useful feature for things like this... Stupid people abusing it so it was removed.. :mad:

Really is no good way to do events like this anymore now...

But I guess this + trust people pass loot when it misfires is one of the best approaches possible atm... will be interesting to know how it works out for you

Getting paranoid no ones going to show up now! :D

Somebody make a post, reassure me! ;)​
 
Boink........
 
I'll try to show up, but my family is usually home on Saturday, so it requires my attention :(
 
Damn, i hope EU downloads on the new box by then.
its awful slow with Lily playing 24/7:laugh:

Still hoping to be there


Stinky:yay:
 
bump for great event.




I got another idea for the loot distribution:

Make 1 team full of TDO with A101 amps so the will get all the loot every time.
 
I think i can make it!
Though i'm ot sure if i qualify as friend, as we never met online i think. But I've met some TDO guys once, and it was fun (300).
 
This sounds nice, hope you all have a good time, my weekend is too busy :(

Thats an idea, but would make it very difficult to comunicate with the rest of the teams... mind you, we will all be together most of the time so that might not be an issue... +rep for good idea - will discuss with TDO and see if they agree. (will +rep when i get home - i cant do it from work for some reason...;))


BUMP!! Tomorrows the big day, make sure you all remember coz if i am the only one to turn up i might cry!
 
Sorry MsPinky, but ... I'm going to be unable to attend this party! :( Our web developer is in the final stages of our JSA website design this weekend and I have to spend time with him tweaking and testing, not to mention get the rest of the content uploaded. I know that everyone will have a blast, and I'm looking forward to the reports. Enjoy my dear, and thanks again for the personal invite. :hug:
 
OK so Saturday is your last hunt? where should we all meet and time?

and Pinky any chance you can reconsider this as your last hunt? :(
