This is an effective-immediate change to our looting rules for guild raids, so all raiders please pay attention! This also applies to people intending to raid with us from out-of-guild (I know there are some of you how occaisonally browse these forums).
New rules
1) ALL of the following are guidelines; the raid leader and other officers can and WILL make decisions that override the basic structure based on people and circumstances.
2) If you win a roll on an item, you can't roll on another item of that slot again during that raid; for example, if you win a shoulder item (or shoulder token), then you can't roll on another.
3) If you win the roll on any item, then any further items you roll on, you'll have a -10 penalty applied to your roll; for example, if you roll 73, it'll count as 63. This way, you still have a chance at the loot, but it also gives others present a greater chance against you. This will stack, so if you win two rolls, the third one you roll on will suffer a -20, and a roll after winning two pieces will be at -30.
4) Nobody will be allowed to win more than three pieces of gear per raid. If you have already won two and wish to roll on a third, the raid leader/master looter/other officers present may look into who else is rolling to decide if it would be "appropriate" for you to roll. If it's clear that someone else would gain a greater upgrade from the item than you when you've already won two, you'll be asked not to roll.
Exceptions
This bit is important as well, so don't skip it!
If only one person wants to roll on-spec on an item, then they do not incur an additional -10 penalty to their next rolls; loot shouldn't go to offspec/disenchanting just because the one person that would've taken the item feels they need to "save up" for later in the run. It will, however, still count towards your 3-item-limit.
If nobody else would be rolling on-spec on an item, then people who would normally not be allowed to roll by the rules above may do so anyway. Loot will always go on-spec, even to people who've won a lot of drops, before it goes to off-spec rolls or to be disenchanted.
When in doubt, decisions will be made by the raid-leader and loot-master (likely with discussion between officers). Sometimes gear you win because nobody else rolled will count towards the limits of how much you can win stated in the rules above, sometimes it won't. Also, the rules may be bent at times when officers deem it appropriate (usually based on common sense or fairness), but unless otherwise stated, the rules above will always apply.
These rules will apply from today onwards, including tonight's continuation of Naxx(25). The changes will be stated at the start of the raid to make sure everybody is aware.
Hopefully this should even out the distribution of loot a little more and help gear up more people as we go!
