OP Oh, my pettiness is that they're saying they're offering OOF Raffle tickets **instead** of Boarder Raffle prizes, as though it's not been the done thing to offer Boarders both OOF Raffle tickets and a Boarder exclusive (if smaller) Raffle. Like, with capping both prizes and prices, one should think (as another anon put it) that they'd have the funds to spare to mock up a thing for the boarders. Don't forget -- they want **us** to help them out. We have absolutely 0 incentive from the get-go to offer out our spaces to the battling flights. If anything, this makes me hope that someone from the flights will hire private mercs. Ordinarily, I'd also wait for someone to hire private mercs for top sender prizes/top 0t-dragons, but with the prize caps I somehow doubt they can incentivize this as much as some other, past raffles have done.
Don't forget that OOF participation incentives oftentimes are as much to keep smaller flights from overtaking the battling flights as it is to beat the opponent.
But who knows, maybe more-restrictive battles will be enough to have a powerhouse like Earth or Water or Light swoop in with higher incentives to upset the battle. I'd be rooting for whoever does that because that sounds like such an amazing salt fest :D
