I'd just like to say a few things to clear up any misconceptions.

First off, when I arrived at the second raid, I checked in with a few people as to what was going on. Teams had been formed and I checked in with Solarina (@Stormwrek), who then gave me the go ahead to lead the raid. I kept all of the team leads in place that had already been established, except for Athena, who I apologize to for perhaps not handling the situation as graciously as I could have. Athena, I understand you've had experience targeting past raids. Unfortunately, i9 raids are completely different than the old ones, and therefore so is the targeter's job. Especially during the yellow phase, targeting the wrong mito can cause the raid to wipe, costing us time and EoEs. Because of this, and because of the fact we were starting late on a Sunday night, I felt it better to put in someone with experience such that we could get the raid done and not keep people up late before work on Monday. It was a decision not intended to offend you, but simply done in the interest of time.

Secondly, I'd like to state something very clearly. We have been leading raids on a weekly basis since the fall '08. There has not been a single time where anyone has approached me about taking on a lead position. I have stated several times that if anyone was interested, please let me know. I certainly do not want people to feel like 'ancillary' members of the raid. Quite the contrary. When I started leading the raids, it was my goal to try to get as many people able to lead the teams as possible such that it would be easy for people to pick up and raid. However, if you do not express interest, I have no way of knowing who is willing to help out.

With those things in mind, anyone who would like to lead teams, just let me know. Or if another group of people would like to step up and try to lead raids on Sundays, I have no problem alternating with them. It simply comes down to communicating to me what your intentions are, and I'll try my best to be accomodating.

I missed the raids this week, but personally I wouldnt feel too bad Amy. You were the raid leader and it was your call on who lead what positions. From what I know of you I am sure you made the changes necessary in as tactful of a way as possible.

People getting butthurt over decisions that were made by someone actually running community events in a way that they think is best for the majority, and the overall success of the event need to get over themselves, or lead their own raids IMHO.

LOL this girl think she the Mr.Bigstuff. What are talking about Felecia I see Hammers, and others several sg conduct C.C. oftenly. PoN use to contribute alot awhile ago with several events. I mean were helping in PVP event which so far up 200mil. So stop opening your mouth like your king tut or the mother of champions... cause honestly your tiring to hard.. and leading to a epic failure. On a sidenote Mod 8 is not your friend.

Speakin' o' tryin' too hard...

Don't be a stranger.

[ QUOTE ]
oh and by the way Acemace it is time to post the first hammy raid defeat for the new "elite" of champion server so they can see what a fun hammy raid is all about. and of course for the none believers in MY DADDYS GUN! to see who was responsible for bringing down hammy, so they can quit calling me a liar. I brought him down the first time thanks to Maruts leadership, vets team work, and the power of My Daddys Gun!!

[/ QUOTE ]

Sounds like someone is jealous that they're left out. Tryin' comin' out to the Raid and contributin'. Or, even better, not cling to the past. Give it a shot. It works.

Edit: As for the rest o' your post, comin' from someone who farms and PLs, I can't really buy what you're sellin'.

What whispered rumors have you heard? Post them here.

The server is secretly run by seven, all-knowing players that meet in a Private channel to decide the fate of everyone on Champion. Or maybe even... the world.

I'd just like to say a few things to clear up any misconceptions.

First off, when I arrived at the second raid, I checked in with a few people as to what was going on. Teams had been formed and I checked in with Solarina (@Stormwrek), who then gave me the go ahead to lead the raid. I kept all of the team leads in place that had already been established, except for Athena, who I apologize to for perhaps not handling the situation as graciously as I could have. Athena, I understand you've had experience targeting past raids. Unfortunately, i9 raids are completely different than the old ones, and therefore so is the targeter's job. Especially during the yellow phase, targeting the wrong mito can cause the raid to wipe, costing us time and EoEs. Because of this, and because of the fact we were starting late on a Sunday night, I felt it better to put in someone with experience such that we could get the raid done and not keep people up late before work on Monday. It was a decision not intended to offend you, but simply done in the interest of time.

Secondly, I'd like to state something very clearly. We have been leading raids on a weekly basis since the fall '08. There has not been a single time where anyone has approached me about taking on a lead position. I have stated several times that if anyone was interested, please let me know. I certainly do not want people to feel like 'ancillary' members of the raid. Quite the contrary. When I started leading the raids, it was my goal to try to get as many people able to lead the teams as possible such that it would be easy for people to pick up and raid. However, if you do not express interest, I have no way of knowing who is willing to help out.

With those things in mind, anyone who would like to lead teams, just let me know. Or if another group of people would like to step up and try to lead raids on Sundays, I have no problem alternating with them. It simply comes down to communicating to me what your intentions are, and I'll try my best to be accomodating.

True. I didn't drop the F-bomb. I was a big fan o' the Caps Lock. It's cruise control, you know. For cool, as they say.

True story.

Four full teams, at one point. Very nice turnout. A new record.

[ QUOTE ]
Ok , first of all, Hello to all of you, I am the (Mad perhalps??) genius behind both stormwrek and solarina, Glifty, his sheep ect.ect...I would like to send out a BIG thank you to all who had the patience to tough out the second raid and and also to all that came from the first raid to help out!!! .I just got done reading thease last 5 pages( 5 pages for a raid, man we did good lol ) and i want to clear the air about some things.I passed leadership to amiee and cobalt cause as i thought we were doing well at getting a second raid together, i didnt think +the whole running it part through.And also i didnt know the people we had at the time so i was a little lost in the confusion a bit in getting teams formed.I was not intending any insult to anyone when i passed leadership to them, i just know they mainly run it alot and thought id deffer to more experienced people.If there is any sort of blame for this, it is mine.I do agree that if we get enough people we should have 2 raids more often and in that as Amiee said earlier , people should step up and try it out.i apologize to all who felt like they were " fired" as i wasnt aware they had experience.If this does not suit you find me next raid and chew me out. as the famous pirate Jack sparow finley quoted" I probably deserved that."

[/ QUOTE ]

Again, I didn't lead this raid. It was Amy. Leadership wasn't passed to me in any way. I just shoot stuff. Or tell people to shoot stuff.

Edit: I can't seem to say this enough.

And we're off. Three teams GOGOGO.

Eh, disregard what I said. Not even my Raid. This is Amy's shindig. I only felt obligated to respond since I was designated as targetter for the second Raid after the change in leadership.

[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ]
I can only speak for myself, but if I was asked to step down from a position for a more experienced person, for the sake of forty-nine other people, I wouldn't be butt-hurt over it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Like everyone has already stated, your work for the server does not go unappreciated by most of us. We know you know your stuff and so does Amy. In short you guys rock!

BUT

I know where this person is coming from. The second raid at first kind of felt like a bunch of us "Ancillary Characters" were getting a chance to shine as second raid started to form. Would we have succeeded without you two? I don't know. But it would have been exciting to see what this "B team" could have done.

I was fortunate to keep my position as hami taunt leader, but if I would have been bounced, yeah, it would have hurt a little considering I was the second person in on this second raid along with Solarina.

I guess what I am saying is not all of us get credit for being good players and smart people. An alternate or training raid would be a good place to let new faces shine and for some of us that was the second raid last night.

[/ QUOTE ]

Feel free to step up to the plate at the normally scheduled Raid. One o' the only reasons the leaders are consistently the same is because no one else wants to do it. Only until recently, and I mean this weekend, have people actually shown potential and interest in bein' in a leadership capacity at the Raid. So c'mon down and show us all what you can do. We'd be more than willin' to bring you on.
