[Request] Roulette Conscription!

A bored Theo is a bad Theo.

Please send succor and donate to the Super Bee Brian Foundation to prevent such tragedies.

This "Foundation", it's weed money, isn't it.

If it helps us get through these trials and tribulations, then yes.

Well, there is potential in the idea if given certain modifications.

If I decline the conscription

That is, first and foremost, the most important part: that you can decline. And you should be able to decline before being summoned into the duty.

A few other things:
- You should not be locked out of rewards, because you can decline due to being busy, then accept the next offer.
- You should only be offered it no more than once an hour, regardless if you accept or decline.
- You should be able to see exactly what type of duty it is and what role (or roles) is needed, according to what's available to your character.
- Offer it also to people who are waiting in queue without breaking their queue in case they want to do that instead of continuing to wait for the queue.
- Don't offer it to people who are watching cutscenes or in combat or otherwise preoccupied with some duty.

Maybe there are a few other things if I can think of them later.

Okay, you win, this actually got me to chuckle.

Not a terrible idea as long as 1) it can be declined freely and without penalty, 2) there is a "be available for conscription" toggle that can be changed at will, and 3) it can be completed an unlimited number of times per day if desired. I don't think it's a great idea, mind you, just not terrible.

I think it would be better to instead expand the queuing system to accommodate queuing for multiple roles concurrently. Alternatively, queue times would decrease if roulette rewards could be applied to any class, not only the class used in the instance. I'd be more than happy to do my roulettes as a tank or healer if I was allowed to funnel those rewards into whatever dps class I was leveling at the time.

Yeah...this would end well. I think this should just be filed under "not a snowballs chance in hell".

[Tlamila]

I can't believe some people are taking this seriously.

Yeah, I'd love this. Just give me an option to check on/off all the classes I have depending on what I feel like playing when I'm queuing up for something, and have the game choose one automatically for me when it pops.

So yeah this thread brings up a most important question...
Where in Baby Jebus' name is Lacan at these days?

Taking a break with DamianFatale. I'd tell Theo to do the same thing but he's basically like a newly hired project manager who's can't wait to pitch his ideas every chance he gets.

You can see how well that went...
