Wow, Lygre told me what happened this afternoon. I was the THF the poor PLD, Scorge, asked that morning to tank it. Prizewinner and Vertighost were already in the party. Scorge had the timer and the other two didnt say anything. I was there to help Scorge get the drop.
There was another group camping it as well. Suddenly they left and found out shortly thereafter that Prizewinner paid them off to leave. When it finally popped, we needed a BRD so Prizewinner found one (Lygre) and said he paid him 500k. We also found out that the RDM, Resengen, in our party gil as well (unsure amount) to help.
Scorge was the original party leader (at least when I was initially invited) and passed it to Prizewinner to invite the other 2 people. As we finally engaged the NM, as it was down to around 30% Scorge /tell-ed me that Prize decided that this is going to be for Vertighost and Scorge can't lot.
Supposedly, Prize was here last night helping another group kill it for another person and he had ToD. That Scorge was by himself. He even commented that Scorge didnt do anything in the battle. That is besides the point because there are many times that a person needing something but humped day after day for the ToD still deserves a shot if he invited the people. Apparently, Prizewinner felt that since he paid for the people and he was here last night he deserves the right of the drop.
After arguing for a while Scorge tells me that Prizewinner will allow him to at least lot. Sounds good to me so we finish off the mob. Then at the last minute, Prizewinner (still leader of ther party), sets quartermaster to Vertighost and she gets the drop.
On top of all that BS, Lygre and Resengen, dont get compensated for their time and get the run around as you can see in Lygre's post.
So whenever you see Scorge, help him if you can and stay beware of Prizewinner.
