    People managed to organise BA-runs and if I'm not mistaken games like WoW actually have or at least had raids that were more like our Savage-raids were you had to coordinate 40 people or something like that? For our first Orbonne-run we managed to put a whole alliance together to go in blind - the game has a system in place for that. And we already have/had stuff like "24 man sundays" when people would queue up for them to get queues going for those who needed to do them for the first time.

    As someone managing a static I am aware of how annoying and exhausting it can be to coordinate a huge amount of people, but this idea still doesnt sound to bad! I would imagine that most people play every day at around the same time, so... just find 23 other people who match your time, set up a Discord/Linkshell/Circle for better coordination, do one run before evening and you're done in a little over a week.
    I think it would be a logistical nightmare. If you could secure 1 coffer per run for your party. You are looking at 6 hours of running it. So, you are more than likely to have some attrition here and there from that long of a timespan. Each new player added to replace those lost to the party (who may have already won a coffer) is an extra 45 minutes on average (per one run) for those who want to stick it out. That is an average of 45 minutes per run, could be more could be less, dealing with the whims of the DF probably longer than 45 minutes per run, or an average of longer if said new player(s) don't actually win.

    I do a lot of farming, and I have never seen a group of 8 in anything last more than 2 and a half to 3 hours. This could be possible in say, an FC, static, or something of the like, however for most players this will not be the case. A pick up group would be near impossible.
