Hi guys
I'm sure most of you are aware that I am new, so I am a little confused by the loot system. I clicked on the link that is suppose to explain the system, but I am still confused. I understand how you get points, but how does the bidding system work exactly?
Thanks for the help

All you need to do is, when the loot master links a piece of loot, type 1 in /raid if you want it for main spec, and type 2 if you want it for off-spec. Loot will only be given for off-spec if no one wants it for their main raiding spec. Then, the person with the highest priority gets the piece. Priority is determined as EP divided by GP. Once they receive that piece of loot, they are given a number of GP determined by the item level of the piece, and what type of piece it is. Basically the EPGP addon tells us how many points a piece is worth. For off-spec pieces, we cut the GP in half. Also, we respect armor class, meaning that regardless of PR, a mage will always be able to get a cloth piece over a druid or paladin, druids will get leather over shammies, etc. Lately we have also been giving off-armor-class pieces at half-off as well.
To see your priority, and everyone else's in the raid, you need to download the epgp addon at http://code.google.com/... ... You can also see more info about how the system works and why it's better than DKP

No problem. If you have any other questions, please ask 
Oh, and one thing I forgot to mention... We tend to distribute loot quickly, so if you think you MIGHT want a particular piece but you haven't made up your mind yet, just ask us in vent or in /raid to give you a minute to decide before giving it out. Or, if it's a piece that would be perfect for your main raiding spec but you don't want it for whatever reason (e.g., already have it, or already have something better), feel free to type "pass" to let us know for sure that you aren't interested.
