The hamlet ranking system (top three) is a cool concept, but a dumb idea, simply because every server is going to have those 5-10 crack heads that wont let any1 get top three, no matter how much gil and materials and time one might invest to try get top three, some hardcore player is going to outbid you, And that is not cool, because not all players on a server can dedicate 15 hours of play time a night, but now they are FORCED! to if they wish to progress in the game, gg SE fail once again.
you probly should do like some of us and learn to pick your battles better

it is way too early in this process to really try to compete with the hardcores, even moreso on weekends when its worse

but i feel for ya on that many drops and being 4th

also while this is the best way to get YOURSELF the seals if you happen to have no group to run with, if you do have a group to run with you can always just rely on the sharing of drops til you all get 3 of each and can mopve to the next step together

top 20 is easier to pull off for top 3 for this purpose
