We had a run this week into kara, for late nights, had a decent turnout, though a bit of a transient crowd. It was a touch rough, but a lot was learned.
That having been said, we're going to start regular late night Kara runs as a matter of course. The general consensus being Tue/Wed Nights Starting at Midnight. The runs will consistently be led by myself and a backup of a so far un-named person. I am new, many do not know me, and I'm a bit of a rookie at raiding any encounter in WoW. I am not a rookie to raid leading in general or playing a tank, however, so we can dooo eeet!
The plan is, eventually to get it down so pat that it turns into a 1 night clear. For now however, with two tanks nominally geared we're planning on two nights. Probably 2-3 hours a night. Whatever it takes to get done. On that note, because I am not as geared as grave, and Regooba is not as geared as B, we almost need to have 3 healers. So we will strive for that.
Please Post if you would like to come and can make a commitment.

This list currently includes only those I have talked to in person and know for absolute certain. As you can see, we have several slots to fill. And a reminder, This is going to be a consistent run that happens every week. So if you can make that kind of commitment, awesomeness! If not, that's ok too, it doesn't mean we won't be able to get you in! If we get big response, we'll have to figure something out.

Rules!
Everyone has a different style to their raids. That being said, there are a few guidelines that will need to be adhered to. It sucks but that is the way of things.
1. Not Everyone is a chief. There is a designated raid leader for a reason, as such, if you are not the raid leader, or someone designated to make calls (like the main tank) there is no reason for you to be giving orders in vent (or raid chat). That does not mean there won't be 'oh shit moments' where you have to call something out. That's ok. If you disagree with the strat, or think something is being done wrong, whisper or ask to hold a sec (if possible) so you can whisper the Leader.
2. Vent is primarily for raid instructions. We want to have a good time, but 9 other people are relying on you (and me, and everyone else) to operate smoothly, this means clear communication. Basically, if the raid leader asks for vent to be toned down a bit, honor that.
3. Guild loot rules apply, even if we bring in someone from the outside, that's just common sense. My understanding is this (and I am sure someone will correct me if I am wrong. Main spec > Off spec (I.E. Tanking items to tanks first then fury warriors second!) > Alts. we also ask that you use common sense and courtesy with what you can use etc.
4. The raid leader -will- screw up. Everyone will screw up. We ask that it is kept to a minimum and that overly stupid mistakes do not happen, but when mistakes do happen, try not to get upset (I am guilty of this one!)
5. Why me? Because I am consistently on at this time, not currently leading another raid, can do it, and am a warm body to fit the bill.
As always, everything falls under the rules of Sovereign and L and B!
P.S. the long rules are so no-one can say "Oh I didn't know that.. even those that did not read will be held accountable.. course, if they haven't read the post, sucks to be them!
