Right so, topic caught your attention but TL; DWR? Here it is for you:
. An FFXI Casino that isn’t based on Gil (to avoid RMT shenanigans etc. etc…); you’re given 1 daily bread (JP midnight reset I guess) that you can either save, or piss away.
That’s the gist of it. Now, if you wanna actually read thoroughly researched and read T.O.S, to understand where I’m coming from so you don’t sound like the usual peep on here, please keep reading~
3.6 Any Illegal Activities.
“You may not conduct any illegal activities whatsoever in connection with the Game. This includes every illegal activity not specifically highlighted above, including without limitation gambling, defamation, harassment and/or fraud.”
-FFXI User Agreement
Kay. So, we can’t gamble with our gil. Y’know this same thing was in the Phantasy Star Universe® User Agreement, and they had the casino I’m describing in the above. Seeing as they(Square) need to keep players on the game, there should to be more types of entertainment on here that attract more than one group-type of players (people with linkshells that run events).
This is coming from someone who is fairly active as a player. It’s just that merit-fights in general are:
A. Repetitive
B. Lame
C. Irritating upon wipe
D. Disappointing when your stuff doesn’t drop/get out-lot because there’s no personal pools like in Skirmish.
*****Link to how PSU’s casino worked:

TL;DWR that one too? Gist: Bronze, Silver, Gold (NQ, Decent Quality, HQ)
You are given a silver coin once a day to spend as you see fit, OR gamble on the different types of games offered.
I know the casino thing has been brought up to death, and something like the above has probably been suggested, but I think working on something like this casino would help the game. I literally logged on to PSU even during the dying days just to gamble. There were many friendships formed due to the sociality opportunities provided during these bouts (Translation: I liked QQ’ing with company). Seeing as the player base nowadays is pretty clique-esque (LSonry), at least it would be something nice that casual and hard-core players could enjoy together.
P.S: I’m no genius. If there’s something in the User Agreement that directly puts this down, PM or just leave it in the topic. I’ll get around to deleting it sooner or later, or the mods will lol
P.P.S: Mummer's Coalition games suck.
