Ex is on a break, may be around here and there. I'm going to keep events going in his stead. The main focus will still be on Vagary, but based on who shows each night, we may not be able to run Vagary. It comes down to enough players and the right jobs.
If we don't have this, then I plan to hold other events in the Vagary time slot.
I'm rewarding 1pt for early as always, but for other events, it will be a flat rate of 5pts/hr.

To help facilitate what we do each night, points will play a role. I'm going to take bids using points for what we do for the night. Minimum bid starts at 15pts.
So far example; there's 6 for the night. I want to do skirmish so I bid 15pts (the minimum), someone else wants to do HQ Diabolos fight for an armor piece so they bid 16pts. I don't want to bid higher than 15, so they win out and that is what the team does for the 3 hrs unless we obtain the item early. In which case, we have another bid w/ the minimum point cost based on how much time is left for the event. Any other items that drop before the main item the group is working towards will be up for auction (using pts to determine who gets what item).

I think this will be a good way to keep events flowing, and help people obtain some oddball shit that can often be difficult to obtain through shouting groups.

So I recommend save your slit, unity accolades, and merits because we may be doing escha, unity concord, high-tier merit battles, w/e for the nights event.

If attendance doesn't pick up for Vagary, I'm going to start recruiting until I find 12 solid members with the right jobs for the event.

FYI, SE released the information on how they plan to implement a reward system for Vagary. We will have to clear each zone for a KI, after obtaining all 5 KIs we can turn it in for a chance at a random item, (one of those being Tartarus Platemail).

Hope this works for people. If it isn't something you are interested in, I'm not requiring anyone to participate.

Later.
