Final
For a few moments, you stay on your guard, worried about the huge monster having still some fight in it. But, as the lava keeps boiling and gurgling in the crater, nothing happens. On the contrary, the heated sunlight which was scorching the landscape slowly reduces its intensity to more usual levels. With a sigh of relief you prepare yourselves to return to the ship, although a part of you still feels you are being watched on your way back...
I gain 96 UC ((7 × 6) + (9 × 6)) for this reffing.
---
Allow me to conclude this refereeing by throwing out an apology to tavok, Mowtom, and zarator for this "effort" I threw out, filled with long gaps between updates, mostly miniscule flavour, and random errors that I had to let slide. This was inexcusable on my part and I know you three were probably affected by this; motivation does not help in the slightest. I am sorry for this effort and if I were to ref another raid, I do not want to throw out what I threw out in this thread.
That said, I am taking a voluntary break from refereeing for now, no idea how long it will be before I referee something again. But yeah, what I really need is a break from handling such commitments, especially commitments like these. Who knows, maybe I might find that spark again?
But yeah. I apologise for this effort. Even if it was not needed, I feel this whole thing is inexcusable.

Its_A_Random zarator tavok
I think the overall rewards should be 4 CC, 16 KOC, 2 EC/4 MC/2 AC OR 6 MC OR 2*(MOVES ÷ 15) CC per Pokémon because the raid was comprised of two encounters, each with its own set of rewards?
