Big Dumb Loot Council is an addon that helps to assist loot councils in gathering item interest, comparing upgrades, and voting on who get's loot. I wrote this addon because the other options are either broken, missing features, or far too feature heavy. This is a lightweight replacement.

Usage

Simply loot a boss in a raid to use the addon.

/bdlc test - test the addon
/bdlc config - set the minimum rank to be a part of the loot council, set custom council members, and create custom quick-notes
/bdlc version - check the raid's bdlc versions
/bdlc start [itemlink] - Start a session for that item
/bdlc addtolc [playername] - Adds the player to the LC (no brackets)
/bdlc show /bdlc hide - show or hide the window

Features (updated for BFA)
When inside a guild raid, the addon starts monitoring when a boss dies. Once a boss dies, all members must loot the boss. Items that are tradable will have sessions started for them. The addon keeps track of who has looted the boss, and will remind people who haven't looted to do so after 30 seconds.

If the player's bags are full the addon will attempt to delete a grey to loot the item, and if it can't do that, it will let the raid know what they looted and that their bags are full.

The reason it has to force loot the item is because the "tradable" tooltip isn't available until the item is in the player's bags.

Members of the loot council see a window that shows who's still considering loot, and which members have rolled.
The loot council can view the player's other items for comparison and vote on who should receive the piece.
