So I joined this party where the leader of the party gave numbers to all players (biased on who joined first) and then he said each mount drop will be give to players in order

1) player 1
2) player 2
3) player 3
etc..

So if player 1 got his mount and left the party, and another player joins. That player will be placed at the end of the list as number 8 to get his mount. Player 2 will be the 2nd to get his mount and so on.

I have entered a cycle for 5 hours because people kept taking their mounts and leaving. Until I joined this guys party and i was player 4. All I did was wait for my turn, took my bird and stayed for few more runs then left. (lead kept getting passed among players)

Somewhat it is fair that these players that joined first wont have their mount taken by someone who joined their party after another player has left. But then again it takes away the freedom of players to roll and being able to get the mount on their first roll if they were lucky.
