Curious... how low of a number do you need to be considered "low attendance"? Is 18 in Xarc considered low? 24 in the city? etc etc.

You know... you could bump the points earned for staying the whole time in a low number dynamis? ie... say if there is less than 20 at the start of the run and there is 20 at the end fo the run... people get 2 points! 20 is an arbitrary number that I chose. You could set that threshold to some other number and if there are more than that threshold number, then people only get 1 point for attendance. Might be an incentive. =Þ

Slightly off-topic, but I was thinking last night that it seems like the number of people bailing before the run is over has been increasing lately... I don't know if people have been telling the leads before-hand that they need to leave early, but it didn't seem like it last night at least. I'm also not sure if people leaving early are losing their points for the run as the rules state, either. I may just be imagining it all in my head.Razorcat said:

The number hasn't been increasing. You just aren't watching it,, trust me, i have been watching who leaves. When people message me about leaving early, i have them tell other leaders present also so we ALL know that member is leaving early. That way it isn't a surprise later on.
I also disagree to 2points for a low number run. I don't encourage low numbers and this isn't an "effort put forth" reward either. The same effort should ALWAYS be put forth whether 15 members or 64members. Too many people are looking for more incentives than we already give. WE are trying to make this fair for everyone. Who would dare go to COP if they can get 2points instead of 1 in a city? Now this will severely unbalance attendance scrapping the COP run making it revert to just city runs. Our attendance recently has been very unstable. Some people never return still when they get the item they want. This I understand however it poses the issue we had before. Never can we fully fight the get an item and leave type of people as thats like saying no gil sellers. It wont happen ... EVER.
I just notice who comes often and who puts their best foot forward at all times. Look at dynamis as an exp party Try to do the most damage at all times(within reason). Use food for acc or damage and such. Yes dynamis costs gil and exp and the such. Yet better you do more we kill.
Thats why people fear when garret lets me let loose because we intend to push you guys to do your best. This isn't for our own gain its a simple fact. More you kill = more chances at AF. We love to see you guys win items you worked your butts off for.
In closing. I hope this works, I really do for attendance sake. I want to be proven wrong thinking it wont have enough people. And i want to be wrong in this case. So please as a linkshell prove Garret right and me wrong on this factor.

Who paid for it, sponsor? Did that end up being worth doing?
