Now we have a stable team we will start using dkp to bid on Phatloot ... same as before
http://www.webdkp.com/dkp/Aszune/Dead+Men+Raiding/
DKP
We run a capped DKP system with an auto award set to award DKP at regular intervals.
- At 20:10 everyone in the raid, including standby members are awarded 1 DKP. Please be on time or you will miss out on this award!
- Every 30 minutes after this period the addon will auto award everyone in the raid 1 DKP.
- Bidding will be handled by the addon and you can bid what you want for the item, there are no time limits for these bids to prevent sniping and a call to end the bidding will be decided by the ML.
- You can bid more than you have up to -25 DKP for a single item transaction only. You will then have a negative number and will need to make that up before bidding again (So if something drops you really want, you won't lose out)
- The DKP cap is to be set at 100. Anyone going over this will have DKP deducted for the cap. This will prevent hording and encourage spending on loot.
- Offspec. If you want it, you can bid 1 to show your interest
useful commands
To Bid ....
!bid 10 To see your dkp whisper the ML
!dkp or
!list
No weekly decay this time around?
I'm not on the list, are you trying to tell me something? <.<
Iirc you get on the list by being in a raid when the log runs. So the names on there are probably historical from when Jas or Whitey or Hal have been running socially and accidentally had the logs running, hence all the alts in the list. Either that or you've been sacked :p
My shaman is on there, and she really shouldn't be
What TL said ^^

He speaks the truth ... we dont have any dkp data yet, after tonight it "should" just be people who have attended. Im sure it will be spammy and clunky for tonight but we will tune it as we go.
No decay at the moment. If its starts to cause issues we will look into it at a later date
So I thought that the dkp went well :doh:
We are working to find a system thats not broken for warlords
Pen, paper, and into a spreadsheet. I somehow have 14.16 dkp, but to my own calculations I spent 6 of the 7 we get
yeh we have ditched webdkp for now. It started off ok then as the night went on more and more parts of it started to break .. the last straw was opening up the window to hand out loot to find nobody was showing up in the raid. In the end the pen and paper was indeed used ... We are testing another add-on at the moment, So far its looking good and from the bid side it could not be any easier (feez will be happy)
Its surprised me how few loot systems are out there. The ones that are all seem overly complex with formula for attendance, boss kills, wipes, performance, gear level, best upgrade its never ending.
I've seen ppl speak highly of loot-council, but i reckon that would be pretty overkill for our little raid. Been a place that used epgp, but never really figured that one out.
We had a look at both and yes overkill it is ....

Thats the one we are going to try.......... with almost every function turned off :g:
The good thing with this one is that we can define the keywords that trigger a bid. We've left it so you just type the number you want to bid into raid chat. If you want to know how much DKP you have then whisper ?dkp to the master looter (JAS).
Feez, please post to acknowledge you read this :P
