EPGP loot system for World of Warcraft 1.12 (Turtle WoW / OctoWoW style 1.12.1 clients), with one clean window for everything: standings, every player's loot and EP / GP history, raids, bids, standby, officer tools and settings - opened from a single minimap button.
This is Road-block's shootyepgp as extended for a Turtle WoW guild (Turtle item prices, OS PRIO bids, strikes, bench check, Gnarlmoon sides, profession sync), plus a new interface built in the same flat style as the OctoBG addon. Nothing about how EPGP is stored changed: your guild's points stay in the officer notes.

- Download this repository (Code > Download ZIP).
- Unzip it into
World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\and rename the folder to exactlyshootyepgp(remove-mainor-masterfrom the name). - If you had an older shootyepgp, replace its folder. Your saved data is kept - it lives in the
WTFfolder, not in the addon folder. - Log in. Click the guild-charter button on the minimap, or type
/epgp.
The guild leader sets guild permissions once: officer notes visible to everyone, editable only by officers. Public notes are not used.
- EP (effort points) - earned by raiding and by being on standby.
- GP (gear points) - added when you receive loot. Everyone starts at the guild's starting GP.
- PR (priority) = EP / GP. When an item is up for bids, the highest PR wins.
- Decay lowers everyone's EP and GP now and then, so recent effort counts most.
- Minimum EP - members below it are listed after everyone above it in standings and bids.
To bid, click [MAINSPEC] or [OFFSPEC] in the loot master's raid message, or whisper them +
(mainspec) or - (offspec). The addon is not needed to bid - but it makes everything easier.
Open it with the minimap button (left-click; right-click goes straight to Standings; drag to move)
or /epgp, /epgp <topic> (e.g. /epgp raids). The old /shooty commands still work and
open the same window.
The top bar always shows your EP, GP, PR, your place in the standings, whether you are above the minimum EP, and the guild's settings (raid tier, decay, offspec price). Alts see their main's points.
| Topic | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Home | Your character, main, rank, place, what the next decay does to your PR, standby status, strikes; the guild's rules; "right now" (members, raid, loot in history) and a short how-to. |
| Standings | The whole guild's EP / GP / PR in the addon's order. Search by name or rank, My raid only, Online, Everyone (also 0 EP), sortable columns, export as text. Click a name to see that player's details and their history: every loot item, EP award, GP charge, raid correction and decay, with All / Loot / EP-GP tabs (their alts included). |
| Raids | Every raid that got EP: date, zone, officer, members, awards, EP each and total. Click a raid to see who was there (raid or standby) and what each person got; click a member for their history. Two groups raiding on the same night are kept apart. |
| Loot | The guild's loot history: when, which item (hover for its tooltip), who got it, GP and how it was charged. Click a row for that player's history. |
| Standby | Join the standby list and set your main. Answer an officer's standby check to get standby EP. |
| EP / GP history | Every EP and GP award, penalty, decay and reset in the guild, newest first, searchable. |
| Settings | Loot sounds, standings filter, standby, profession sync (share your recipes with the guild website), the minimap button, window size and background. |
These topics and buttons are hidden from members. Officer folds open: click it to show Decay log, Addon check and Accounts under it, click again to hide them. "Officer" means a guild rank that can edit officer notes (the same rule shootyepgp has always used).
| Topic | What it does |
|---|---|
| Standings (details) | Give or take EP / GP from one member (a minus is a penalty). |
| Raids (open a raid) | Fix a raid afterwards - e.g. an award an officer forgot: tick members (or use everyone) and give or take EP / GP. It is logged and shows in each member's history as a raid correction. |
| Bids | The item up for bids, its GP price, mainspec and offspec bidders with their PR. Click a bidder to announce the winner. Loot master: countdown and attention ping. Only the master looter can start a bid (an item link with + / - / ms / os in raid chat); the same line from anyone else does nothing. |
Practice a loot hand-out (Settings > Pop-up windows, or /epgp practice) |
A pretend bid on a random raid item, only on your screen: the raider pop-up, your bid in the bid window, countdown, announcing the winner and giving the GP. Nothing reaches officer notes, chat or other players. |
| Standby | Who answered the standby check, run a standby check, give standby EP. |
| Alts | Which characters are alts of which mains ({MainName} in the alt's officer note). |
| Strikes | Raid strikes and the strike panel (/strike). |
| Officer | Award EP to the raid or standby; raid progress tier; report channel; minimum EP; offspec price; decay %; alts sharing EP (guild leader); Decay now, Reset all EPGP (guild leader), Lift low EP to the minimum. |
| Decay log (inside Officer) | Every decay: date, time, which officer, the decay % and everyone's EP and GP before and after. A few seconds after a decay the officer notes are read again from the server and checked: the log says whether every note really changed, and Decay the missed fixes any that did not. Undo (the newest decay only, asks first) gives everyone back exactly what the decay took, keeping awards given since; it is posted to the guild and logged. The decay button warns when the last decay was less than 6 days ago. Older decays from the EP / GP history get a GP check instead. |
| Version counter (top right, next to Refresh) | How many online members run this version, e.g. 9 / 14 online up to date. Hover for who is up to date, who needs to update (with their version when known) and who has no shootyepgp answering; click to ask again. Old copies (since March 2026) are found through the hidden check every shootyepgp already answers. |
| Addon check (inside Officer) | Ask your raid, party or the online guild which addons they have loaded: one column per addon (green = loaded with version, gold = off / old, red = missing, ? = unknown). Members on an up-to-date shootyepgp answer exactly; for older copies the page fills in what their addons were heard sending (pfUI, BigWigs, shootyepgp...), and in a raid BigWigs is also asked with its own version check. Nothing appears in chat. |
| Accounts (inside Officer) | Every guild member's other characters on the same WoW account, Alliance and Horde: faction, class, level, guild and realm (hover a row). Search for any character name to find who owns it. Each member's shootyepgp remembers the characters logged in on that account and sends the list when they log in; Ask online members asks everyone online now. A character only shows once it has been logged in with this version. |
| Tools | Bench tracker, Gnarlmoon sides, strike panel, standings export / import (import: guild leader only), snowball tracking, item ID lookup, restart. |
Every button that changes points, clears a list or posts to chat opens a confirm box in the middle of the screen that says exactly what will happen. Nothing happens until you press Yes.
- EP never decays below the minimum EP. A member at or above the minimum (e.g. 300) stops at it when a decay runs. Members already below it decay as before. Officer penalties are not limited.
- New members start at the minimum EP, not 0, when they get their first EPGP note.
- Lift low EP (Officer page) raises everyone between 1 and the minimum up to the minimum, after a confirm.
These follow the guild's Minimum EP setting. They are applied by the copy of the addon that does the writing, so every officer who awards points or runs a decay should use this version.

The plain addon only writes loot on the loot master's PC and EP / GP lines on officers' PCs, so a member's copy knew almost nothing about other players. This version keeps a history store on every PC and fills it from: the PC's own loot list and log; the award and decay messages shootyepgp already sends to the guild; and officers' copies, which also send loot charges and the names in raid and standby awards. When a member opens a player's history or the raid list, their copy asks the guild and one officer's copy that is online answers. Older raid awards were logged without names ("100 EP to the raid"), so those raids show date and EP but no member list.
All saved-variable names are still declared (removing one would make the game drop that data). Updating from an older shootyepgp keeps everything.
All on the GUILD addon channel (whispers do not work on this client), paced one message at a time and through ChatThrottleLib's BULK queue when it is loaded.

- New window (
ui\), new minimap button,/epgp. - The old Tablet windows (standings, bids, loot, standby, alts, logs), the FuBar minimap icon and the
Dewdrop right-click menu were removed - everything they did is in the window.
legacy.luakeeps what was not just a window (standings export / import, bid countdown, winner announcements, attention ping), and every old "open window" call opens the matching page. - Removed libraries: Tablet-2.0, Dewdrop-2.0, FuBarPlugin-2.0, Compost-2.0.
- Decay floor at the minimum EP, new members start at the minimum EP, lift low EP.
- Shared loot and EP / GP history, per-player history, Raids with officer corrections.
- Addon check (officers).
- The "EPGP" tag in chat and tooltips shows the player's own guild.
The Raids page has an officer-only Practice mode switch: a sample raid made of real guild members
and fix buttons that work in the window but write nothing (no officer notes, chat, log or
messages). It is meant for trying the raid fix safely and will be removed later. To remove it
yourself: delete ui\RaidsPractice.lua and its line in shootyepgp.toc.
- Make a chat tab named debug: shootyepgp's info messages go there instead of your main chat.
- GP prices also show on item tooltips.
/parseidthen Shift-click an item prints its item ID.
tests\run_ui.ps1 runs tests\ui_test.lua (the window, 110 checks) and tests\load_test.lua (the
real addon with its Ace2 libraries loads and logs in) on a mock 1.12 client. They need the OctoBG
addon's tests\mock.lua and DmorphOcto's tools\LuaHost next to this folder; they are not needed to
play. Sample players in the tests are invented.
