    HighRoller  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

    Version: v1
    by: Guillotine [More]

    Note: Happy April Fools' Day everyone. This AddOn was a 2008 April Fools joke perpetrated by most of the major WoW fansites. The description below is, of course, not true Hope you got as much of a chuckle out of this as we did!

    This AddOn uses an advanced algorithm to time your roll requests to the server in order to increase your average roll value.

    Note that the addon is rather large due to the advanced algorithm. It must take into account things such as Name, Race, Class, guild name, and position. I have done everything I can to make the addon as fast an efficient as possible (I use both Ace2 and Rock so that its twice as fast!)

    I'm not sure if this addon is completely legal (though they say anything doable in the default UI is), so download it quickly before its taken down!

    Also, this AddOn will not work on Macs due to several differences in the way system time works (sorry!)

    Note: Due to initial calculations, you may be locked out of your UI for a bit the first time you roll after installing the AddOn

    Goddamn--this shit actually works. I'm genuinely concerned about how this will affect rolling on loot. Obviously in the case of master looting items the raid leader can (without having HighRoller installed) roll for different people, but for group looting items it wouldn't be that hard to hook the roll optimization algorithm into the group loot interface so that it select "need" or "greed" at the appropriate time to get a high roll in that situation.

    Regardless of the repercussions, kudos to Guillotine for taking the time to reverse-engineer such a complicated algorithm into such a distributable package. I'll never give this mod up.

    Why has this "only" been picked as additional pick of the week?!?

    This should be mod of the year! Great work!

    Re: Awesome
    Hrm, I installed this and was very intrigued.

    I took about two hours figuring out the algorithm you used, and I just have to say "dang". I can't believe I didn't think of it before, it seems so obvious now.

    Seriously good work, too bad I didn't think of it first ;-).
