I could do that, but ignoring the design problem isn't going to fix it.

But there isn't a problem to "fix" Unless you can give an actual problem that is reasonable, and not "i want this to be easier"

Sorry, i probably should have clarified. xD I actually disagree with OP about changing the KO rule. I think that's awesome ... although i agree that the problem of getting a KO count on disconnect is an issue to be looked at.

My problem is the forced fixed party system. Even FFXI wasn't that stupid most of the time. There's a difference between 'challenge' and 'stupid'. If SE is determined to have this operate without Duty Finder, fine, but let us change members freely every 10 floors. People pop in the purgatory room anyway, and the pool of people to go on with or invite will be drawn from those who still have a 0 count. Simple. Done. Like if you were fighting Kirin in Sky and someone bails, you can still go shout for a replacement. It doesn't change the fact you were gunna be up there all night for the fight...

I see, well I don't think SE can because let's be honest, if they took away the Disconnects not counting rule, people would just abuse it, "yo guys, we about to wipe, pull the plug, quick!"

as for the fixed party, i think i would be enraged if i got to a 150+ with a random group of people who ended up wiping you because they aren't paying attention. i Think yoshi knew people wouldn't always want to do this with random people and not just a trusted team.

This might work if you're willing to reset your pomanders and score. Sucks for the person who had to bail though. Maybe they didn't want to reset, but you're kind of forcing it onto them.
