Hi all. I've been a long time lurker and finally found a way to make my first contribution to the community. I've recently finished leveling a few teams to 90 and begun the gearing process. I have found that Scenarios are fun, relatively easy and efficient means of acquiring gear and JP/VP.

However, after reading threads like this I started wondering about the most efficient means of running all characters through Scenarios. My solution is based on string combinatorics (closely related to permutations) and is rather straightforward. You enter a list of characters in the right window and output an optimized list in the left. You can export to .csv as well.

You can grab the executable and/or the source code from my Google Code repository here. The code is alpha and has been functionality tested. There might be a few bugs since I only performed cursory testing.

If there is enough interest from the community, I would love to extend this utility to include JP/VP calculations so that we know how many rotations of the optimized team list we need to run in order to get from x point to the relevant point cap.

Enjoy and have fun!
