Gents there is a call for a 2nd Op night based on the information that has already been gathered we are looking towards the Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.  This is for the OP group to drop both of the OPs in a week.

Your thoughts and feelings.  I think another Poll but set up by one of the council.

You may now enlighten me :)

I can lead any night, a poll will be required, what im currently planning is to blow through an OP's (on normal) in one night, so ever if not all members can make the 2nd day, I can always replace them with it being an entirely New OP instance run.

As last weeks run showed, with my current set ups (4 expereinced 4 unexpereinced) group setup EV can be cleared in a night with 30/45min to spare, which after we have seen Kragga for the first time tommorow will allow me to gauge if 2 days will allow an OP's group to Kill both in a week, On normal this will be possible, Hardmodes/Nightmares from reviews it would have to be the same group/instance both days depending on gear wipes etc, As people get more experienced/geared I may even be able to do One op's completely in half a night and the other in the other half, depending on Kragga's difficulty compared to EV

I am going to be around tonight to listen in on the OP run rather than join (not quite 50 yet) and see how things go and progress which will give me a greater understanding on all requirements and reply back to you in greater depth but I think Vladic has a good point that the harder the instance / OP is set the longer it is going to take which would mean the need for a second night.

There is also other areas to think about too what with a good few more guild members pushing into the level 40s and soon being in a position to join the raids.

Also progression from Normal to hardmodes needs to be considered as rotations will be difficult with the more casual players equipment and play style against those who are wanting to power through content, if requested I have already done research with CURRENT members of OP's on peoples equipment, moods towards progression and what catagory (Hardcore or Casual) they fit in.

This also ties in with the subject of a 2nd group, as Gortex said above we have new people coming to OP's soon and at current there are too many to rotate quickly and efficiently as it is, plus with some of the more speed prone guildies getting twitchy about the rotation/speed at which we are progressing (for example one healer was "unHappy raiding one time a F***ing month*) at current these fears Have been slightly put back but they need addressing by the council pretty quickly in say next 2 weeks?

Thought u wud like to know

Edit: The hardmodes 2nd group etc all link together with 2nd day hence why mentioned.
