When you decide to do a boss battle, rather than make staff the boss manually, perhaps we can code it where a random player gets a chance of being the boss so that it is more fast paced and everyone gets a chance to experience it. Please leave thoughts and additions/changes to this idea below.
Now, I'm not an expert regarding coding however this would be a waste of time. Look at everything that's being done right now - so many things far more worth while than this. Yes, you could use a random name picker. But it takes time to put everyone's names who is in the match into it, and the boss needs the items before the end of the grace period. If I recall correctly, when a game is full (as it usually is when a boss battle is announced), the game has 10 seconds before starting. Not really feasible. Competitions are often good to do, but they do take time. It is often much more convenient to just ask a staff member to be the boss. Besides, there is always the opportunity to kill the boss yet they can't really fight back, can they? Possible solution: Have a simple challenge to see who can find a particular thing at spawn first. Something along those lines.
We're not going to add any custom coding for boss battles. A lot of the time we'll run some sort of pre-event with the winner of the pre-event becoming the boss, which is a pretty fair random chance most of the time. Randomly picking people presents a lot of issues (the chosen person not being interested, etc). All in all not something that's going to happen sorry.
