Went to the raid calendar a few minutes ago...now Im wondering if there are others like me who are willing to go on the turtle runs with whatever of their toons are needed to balance the classes in the raid, but dont know how to put that on the raid signups.

I dont want to sign Maie up for everything and bogart all the spots. I dont want to not sign Maie up because spots are open for different classes and chance losing out on a spot. Id be happy to bring the mini or the hunter if thats whats needed, but i dont want to gunk up the sign up pages by posting notes under my availability.

Blah.

Any way to just put an 'all toons available' thingie as a sign up option?

Yeah, I've wondered the same thing too many times. But it does seem like for the turtle lately only mains are able to go because of priority (unless you play a class that there seems to be a need for like Minnie or Captain). Seems there is little room for alts.

So in those cases I always sign up my main in the first raid and an alt in the second raid. Then I check the signups. If I'm confirmed in the first raid, great! All is well and I will wait to see if my alt is confirmed in the second raid. If not, then I will remove my main from the first raid, then sign him up in the second raid and delete the alt from the second raid. And sometimes the raid leader will help you along with that.

That's how I've handled things, but really I haven't been able to get my alts into the turtle very often because of space constraints, so I tend not to worry too much about it.

As Auri said, we try to put as many mains in turtle runs as we can, and lately that has been nearly two raids full. If you want to let us know you're up for it, sign up your main on one raid, your alt on the other and post a note saying, in Maie's case for instance, LM, hunter, minnie available

Why aren't we trying for 3 raids anymore? If we are filling two up with mostly mains we should at least try and get one with alts together. I'm not saying have a sign-up for it, I'm saying holler out to all who want to go on a third, and look for the most necessary classes first.

This would be nice for everyone who's not me; that is, people who have alts.

Do it Ausar! Be one of us!!

But seriously I have much respect for people that only play one toon. I use my alts to pass the time for when my main cannot get a group or do something productive which is quite a bit actually if you think about it. I don't know how people do it!!??

I am currently trying to figure out a way to make things easier on turtle sign ups .

And alos Auri your alts are alowed to go any PUG turtle you want just not your main
