Dead Men Walking

The Marshalls have been discussing adding a Extra Raid day into our runs. But before we can talk more about this we need some input from you guys so please vote for which days you can attend.
 
 
 

Tuesday for me

gib all days :D :D :D

I wont be able to attend another day which is one of the reasons I have stepped down as marshall

All days except Tuesday and Friday :)

Tuesday, saturday, sunday will suit me.

Please help us with getting this voting well-known by all RG2 members and tell you buddys to visit this thread and vote.

I'd prefer Saturday as extra raid day, since I won't have to get up early Sunday morning :happy: . Although I have to say I might not be able to continue my 100% attendence record if we get an extra raid day. I'm guessing that I'm not alone in this and expect to see an overall decrease in attendence if we get another raid day. To what degree, I can't say.
 
Another thing to consider is the fact that the vacations are running to an end. Attendence levels might drop a bit due to this as well, because most people need to get up early the next day and thus might not be able to stay up till midnight. Some days they can, some days they can't.
 
As I see it now a third raid day might be a stretch....
 
The release date of the expansion is also approaching. All in all, how long will the raid group stay together? 3 more months?

I prefer thuesday since we then can continue to work on BWL :D:taz: :taz: :taz: :taz: :taz: :taz: :taz: :taz: :taz:

plz vote on the poll up, don't write your days here

All of the above did. But it may also be nice to know the motivation behind them. It might aid you in making a decision about this subject.

as i am working different days each week i cant say if i can raid a specific day or not, except for the 2 days we already got. I can just cross my fingers and hope ;)

Well, i cant raid more than i do. Atleast i cannot attend before 19:30-20 o'clock - which is basicly why i applied for the Defender-status...
I have made a deal with the wife that she puts our son to bed on our regular raidnights - i cant ask for yet another...
 
If you decide to add another raidday - i hope you consider to lower the attendence requirenment - otherwise i wont meet that - and that would prb. mean you had to demote me - and that would make me quite sad...
 
But lets see how things end up. :)

Hey DK - If we do another raidday you can still hold you attendance 4/6. You raid the days we have today thats 4 and miss 2 in 2 weeks who gives you 4/6 :biggrin:

Okay GD - as long as i dont get the "Boot" for not raiding the new day - atleast not from 19:15.... :)
 
But, it would also mean that if a miss a day or two of "normal" raiding - i would in theory be in trouble - right?

OFC not :biggrin:

Not sure another raid day will be possible for RG2. The attendance is already at a minimum for many. IMO we will see some people leaving because they dont want to raid 3 days a week or simply because they cant.
 
On the other hand I totally agree that if RG2 is to catch up with RG1 it needs another raid day. As I see it RG2 has changed since we started doing BWL. The things said about RG2 when it was formed was that it was a fun and less serious RG for people who wished to raid but not on a hardcore basis.
 
Have Marshalls considered what to do with those who cannot fit an extra raid day in their calendar? As DK says if you cannot raid an extra day you would need 100% attendance on Monday and Thursday to meet the attendance requirement.

ummmm, then what was that GD just said?

Remember this is just a voteing to see how many can do a 3. day, so nothing is decided yet.

We do not need to catch up with RG1. But people are ambitious and we need to make progress to catch up with this ambition and atm we do think 1 night in BWL is to little to forfill that.

Yes we have, that's why we are voteing for it atm.

So far noone in RG2 is demoted becuase they have a low attendance(and you know that!)

I'm sure the Marshalls will consider *all* responses when the poll closes.  They'll probably nto want to start debating all opinions and options contained within this thread though until they've had a chance to review it all and consider it themselves privately first, so give them a chance eh folks!

TL.

Thats why im posting it. Because they will take my response in to consideration.

Yea, we will Nefrion. :biggrin:
 
But we/I are also trying to give a explanation to people in matters where they confused or need a answer to a problem they have.

This is just a thought....but how about making this extra raidnight optional?
 
The normal requirenment still stands - but this optional day is not considered a real raidnight. My guess is that a lot of people would still be there - but it is up to the individual. That night could be used to go that extra mile....
 
I for one would be there - but like i said earlier, not until 19:30-20'ish after taking care of "los familios". :)
 
Just a thought...

This is some of the things we need and why we did make this thread. A new idea - a thought - a support who maybe helps us with taking the right decision in the end.
 
Please post more of this and ofc if you mean it's a problem with another raid for you and we will take this in consideration if we can't find a solution on you problem(if it's something with WoW to do, financial and ect. problems we can't help you with:narnar: )

Quote from: DonnieKingo;149296This is just a thought....but how about making this extra raidnight optional?

The only problem with making it an optional night, is that we probably wont get enough people then. But by all means, it never hurts to give it a go. :smile:

I think its a great idee to start a 3th day for raiding for rg2. If it whasnt posted on the forum, i would asked for it myself. I hope though that we dont "waist" it on MC and OL runs. That would be a big waist. I prefered if we spent more time in BWL so we can defelupe our raiding there. And get some fast and good progress in there.
 
GREAT IDEE!:taz:

I assure you all that we, the Marshalls, are working on plans to improve our progress in BWL. We simply need more time in BWL as it is atm. And we know this.

Well, doing MC more than once per week isn't possible, so it would have to be BWL. After all, we clear MC in one night now and mostly with the time to do OL as well. This will also go faster the better we get at it.

Hi
 
To Back up noevra here:-)
 
I too think its a great idea to do an extra raiding day, and have hoped for it a time now. An extra day will prob get our tacs in bwl better;-).
 
Btw the core team we now got is good and Im shure the marshals dont "cut off hands" of those who cant manage an other raiding day if that will be the result here.
 
Btw "cry" if the extra day are on saturdays, that is a no go day for me. My wife will kill me if I played that day. I have a similar deal as donniekingo at home so its all about gettin the right arrangements to get permission from the chief at home :-)

lol - /signed Devout :biggrin:

I think, it will be difficult for me to raid for 3 days a week over a long period of time, although as long as raid days are not consecutive (like for example Sunday and Monday*), and if work and RL permit, I should be able to raid any day.

My doctor ordered me to reduce my time on the PC as this is putting alot of strain on my eyes (I have sensitive eyes :tongue:). Since my work consists mainly of staring at a computer screen all day long, there's not much I can do about it. Being a healer and having to watch health bars for the duration of the raid, doesn't help either.

I should be able to make 3 days most of the time, but that still depends on how much my eyes hurt. Sorry can't be more specific than that.

* Thursday and Friday might be the only exception as I can stay away from the screen on the weekend.

I can't commit to another day in the week.
 
But I think that if ppl wan't to raid more, our fine guild got ZG and AQ20 runs to do where we always can sign up.

thats not the same as bwl, mc ore ol. is by my view a total inrelevant<_<

Tuesday and Friday :clap:

Im in every day fits me, else ill make it fit me! :narnar:

Count me in!!
