The Special Snowflakes
<The Special Snowflakes>
A brand-spanking-new 10-person raiding team has now assembled!
Raiding since 18/06/11!
Yet Another Raid Group?
Indeed!
It is my hope that our schedule and attitude can at least provide a good home to a few like-minded players and others trying to carve their own little comfy niche in this multi-guild monstrosity.
When are your raid times?
* We are currently running Thursday 8pm-11pm and Saturday 8pm-11pm or 12am, server time.
What are we offering to prospective raiders?
* A casual but competitive raiding environment focusing on progression and gearing. A perfect fit for the not-quite-casual but non-hardcore raider out there. * Assistance in gathering mats for crafted upgrades and enchants. * Free enchants for main-spec gear upgrades acquired during raid times. * New and challenging game experiences as we thrust ourselves into content. * Possible reimbursement for those who use their personal assets for The Greater Good™
What do we expect from prospective raiders?
* The ability to maintain an 80% attendance record. * A willingness to help other roster members on off-hours. * A desire to learn new strategies and apply new skills * Gear-wise, we are looking for characters who are at least capable of running the Troll heroic dungeons and we are willing to assist the proper candidate in acquiring better pre-raid gear. * While it would be preferable, no previous raid experience is required to apply. * Players should have a good understanding of their own class and spec and be willing to research this as patches and hotfixes come out. * Raiders with capped or near-cap trade skills will be given preference. I don’t want any sweet sweet recipe drops going to waste. * We expect prospective roster members to research new fights before we raid and come with a basic understanding of the encounter. You should also make note of the loot table so you make make quick and informed decisions on drops.

Required addons, etc ==
* DBM * OMEN * AIE CTA (seriously, not enough people use this great add-on) * Vent and a microphone.
On the matter of sweet loot.
At the moment, we use a simple roll system with a loot master but may be migrating to a different loot system in a few weeks, once our roster settles down and we get a feel for the team.
Main --> Off/sell(BoE) --> DE
My only stipulation to the above loot system is this: don't be greedy.
All revenue made from the sale of BoEs goes to help pay for raid expenses (cauldrons, enchanting mats, etc)

Okay, I have read your wall of text and I am still interested! What do I do? Please help me!

Don't worry. There is nothing wrong with you. That feeling is perfectly natural. I suggest that you reply to this thread and send a tell to either Aratall or Longmoo in game. While we are currently full, we are always looking for good subs for when the need arises.
Progress!
