[Suggestion] Side Events for Unassigned Players in Sieges

Member, Alpha Two
Currently, the lists of participants are maintained by certain players, which is perfectly understandable.
However, there are also quite a few people who cannot join these teams (due to missing connections, gear, or other reasons) but would still like to support and participate.
The proposal is to add additional activities around the main area, where random players could also join. Since anyone would be able to participate, the results of these activities should only slightly affect the main battle — for example, by granting small buffs to the main teams or creating additional support structures.
To take part in such an event, a player would need to quickly reach the area where the new event has spawned and talk to an NPC to register on either the attacker or defender side. After a 5-minute waiting period, the event would begin, and the team that completes its objectives faster would win rewards to support either the attackers or defenders.
The same mechanism should be applied to prevent players from entering the event zone if they did not manage to register in time. The number of participants in these side events is expected to be smaller — for example, around 40 vs 40 or even 24 vs 24 — to keep the battles more focused and manageable.
There could be more than one side event happening at the same time.
A player could also participate in multiple side events sequentially.
However, the number of events a player participates in would not affect their final reward.
There would be one shared goal for everyone and one overall reward at the end, which depends on the outcome of the siege.
Ideally, such events could be connected to the raid leader’s interface. When the time for an event arrives, the raid leader could choose the specific bonus or reward their team would receive if the event is successfully completed.
UPD: Once a player has participated on a specific side during a siege, they cannot switch to the opposing team in the following events of the same siege.
