Random chance can be a funny thing. We don't ask for a "note from your doctor" when someone misses a raid. When people don't sign up for a night or even sign up but then don't show, it can be a case where RL has jumped up and bitten them. Even though random chance would seem to even this out, it is entirely possible that it happens to a large part of our core on the same night. I would be far more concerned when a trend shows over days and weeks than I am about one or two nights when we couldn't muster a raidable crew.
In my case, the night that ended up being trash mobs was the first of two days I was without power due to storms. My biggest concern, when the first full day came around, was that I was sitting in the dark and Avarice was having fun in MC. It could very well be that several people also had RL nipping at their heals. I don't think there was a raid Monday night but, if there was, I also missed that because I found myself laying in the hospital. I would venture to say that I am as devoted to our progression as pretty much any Avarice member and have the least expected RL interference so, if it can happen that my attendance is prevented by RL, it can be expected that it will happen to most other members.
So, wandering back to my point, we have a good core crew that do their best to be there for scheduled raids. I don't think we really need to be that concerned yet. We need to have the loot system up and running, to let people know what to expect, and get our schedule back in place and I think we will hit the ground running.

Looking back on that post its funny that some MC mobs are trash now, lol. Yeah I know rl gets in the way, thats why i think signups and keeping within communication is important on the sites we have. I have been enjoying our zulgrub runs allot lately they are a blast!
