DA
I thought that "10500/L7" was a misclick, went to check and it wasn't??? Average payout for a L7 is 11250, so I could imagine rounding down to 11000, but all prices are about 1kt below average exalt payout. The raffle prices are quite obviously meant to make significant money for Fire('s dom team) - even assuming the absolute low number of 10k dragons in OOFR (and most raffles tend to get more), that's at least 10 million of outright profit. Why do these idiots even have a public buy in a fest push, did they imagine that raffle profit will cover the buy's loss? Wow. Fuck them.

So the AA's plan is just that, to make profit for not only the PB but also from the raffle and the guilt people will feel when Fire doesn't get on top of Earth. The AA doesn't want to lose any funds.

The person from the AA who is on right now is trying SO hard but isn't one of the main bank holders. This user is trying to run a Blitz, but with most of the heavy hitters recently switching, a bunch of the regulars going to first/second week of school there just aren't participants. The OOF Raffle looks a lot better than the IF Raffle looks to me so there isn't a huge desire to help. I feel bad for the Blitz runner because they're trying but the lack of prep just nuked us.

Fire's dom is terminal and it doesn't look like we have any chance. People don't want to exalt at a loss for the raffle or wait for 1hr+ for the PB. It's just not going to happen.

If that member trying to Blitz is who I think it is, I know them from elsewhere and they're legitimately trying very hard to get Fire Dom to at the very least be functional. Breaks my heart knowing they're seemingly fighting a losing battle :/

Out of curiosity, what does your IFR look like if it's even worse than the OOFR?

It's most likely who you are thinking of. They are new to the AA and very active and they are TRYING. It is absolutely heartbreaking to see them trying so hard.

The IF has prizes that make me wish we HAD Baldwin in the IF. We don't even have a fire egg in the IF.
