That plan could work... And as you say... you would need a "lot" of trust.....

I find tho... that every time you get a real good group going, someone always has to leave! grrrrrr

Once in a group one guy was picking up everything.... I asked to loot some too.. He said he would divide later.... Guess what? Later never came. Out of the blue he says " Oh... I have to go... " And poof he was gone...

So trust is a #1 priority in that case.....

Cercie

Heh...that would be one guy I'd never group with again. and I don't understand the term "ffa" alpha looting is okay in my opinion... What I'd like to have happen is that one person with a lot of bags loot everything and then at the end of the battle he /split p g s c for the rest of the group but then that would include a bunch of trust... and then he calls off everything he'd looted while we were grouped... then again...you really have to trust someone a bunch.... > -----Original Message----- > From: Su [SMTP:suceress@...] > Sent: Tuesday, May 01, 2001 10:16 AM > To: EverQuest@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [EverQuest] About loot order > > Recently in some of the groups I've been in, we've had a few problems with > loot order.
