I sat on that feeling for a couple weeks because my mind kept bouncing between that thought and "well we were pretty miserable in TOP weren't we". I'll admit I was also hoping someone else would decide to organize it first. I don't wanna do this man!

I had to get over myself. No one else was gonna do this, and if I really wanted it to happen I had to be the one to do it myself.

So I put together two documents - in one, I put my expectations for the group and sent it to the static as an open invitation. Everyone except for one person jumped on.
In the other, I wrote down what -I- wanted to accomplish and get better at as a raid leader. No one but me would see this.

I know what my biggest flaw is, and what it's always been. I don't like being the bad guy. I knew as much two years ago when a friend from our old Creator group asked why I think some early members flopped out.

There's some other smaller stuff in there - I need to reduce yapping, primarily from myself but also being able to shut people up if we're losing focus. If I'm calling mechanics I have to make sure I'm clear and concise, and most of all that I'm -right-.

I need to play perfect. All things considered I have an easy job here, and how can I hold people to task about messing up mechanics if I can't do them myself? I need to get better at reading the room, both to defuse tension early and to know when someone needs a moment to collect themselves.
