Ok..got a suggestion.Alot of people are getting higher up in lvl, alot of bossess are comeing down now.Some clans are working together to get what they all want.Sweet..now..the next issue.With all these clans killing bossess together..the issue of who gets what drop is up in the air.Alot of us choose a number and have people on the square pick one.If the number is correct, then they get that item.Alot of people are finding this unfair..or they feel it is rigged somehow.So i suggest this..which is something that has been suggested before, but did not get far.Maybe it will get a little more push this time. set a /random in the game work it for everyone on the square like staff do.This will ease the stress on staff, and would make a few players happy.lets see how far this gets shall we?

IF this were to be added, it would only be as a party command to prevent spamming.

[PureMourning]

Highly supported.

[Against]

Supported as well.

[Oracle]

Supported that party leader only can do it, else you'll want a /pickrandom command to choose who's going to do the /random too

[Äññöÿäñcë]

Supported if both comments by Wes/Aeryn are put in with it.

[Gaddy]

I support it if and ONLY IF-
1. Party leader is the only person who can do the command.
2. No one outside of the party has anything to do with the command.

This is because it would serve as more than just a way to keep people from bickering over drops.
-It could be used to random out players in moshes.
-It can decide who tests the next square in trap areas.
-It can decide drops.
And there are several other options that do not sprint to my mind.

But basically, if it were added as a "Party Leader ONLY" command, it would be highly useful.



Also, perhaps this could be considered for a Chairperson clan command also.
"So, who has to go help our new member train?"
/clan pick random

Is /pickplayers 1 not a command on the 1 alt server?

[Oracle]

Yeah but isn't it staff only?

[Piggy]

./pickplayers only works in a mosh arena for players

[Terron]

i like the idea

[JLH]

i could set /pickplayers to work anywhere

[Ghost_Wolf]

if /pickplayers randoms the drop,by all means set it to be used anywhere.

[joanna]

if /pickplayers was used, you could have more than 1 person /pickplayersing with the corresponding argument over whos /pickplayers actually counted....
again, if it was party leaders only it would work

[Gaddy]

What Joanna said is correct.
Pick players would be terrible to add everywhere.

It needs to be limited to the party leaders.
It needs to only show to the party members.
Otherwise it will not work properly or can be used to spam.

I swear the arguement used to be "No, you need it more than I do, you take it.." 'No, I insist, I've actually got a spare in my vault.' And so on...

Ive played a mud that uses a /party roll to "roll dice" between party members. Anyone in the party can call it.
Basically, once the command has entered everyone "rolls a dice" and the results show instantly after the command to everyone in the party.
It works.

turnip: 5
Jack: 2
Jill: 6
Dolly: 4

hmm it might have been that everyone rolls two dices to lessen the ties.

Yea, that's how it worked when good ol' boys and girls played....not with your common players now a days.
I still think this command is mainly demanded due to lack of players working things out for themselves....there are plenty of things they could do to figure this kind of stuff out, but nooo....just complain.

It's an understandable request of a command, but it shouldn't be needed, it should just be a little help.
