Quest Kings

thats correct. the most accurate way to determine whos more dedicated is to compare the level and the quests available\in progress.

and also, just leave your character next to the capt.'s doors before the weekly sc, and as soon as the sc ends get in there and kill it. thats what i did, works like a charm. took me less then 5 mins to kill it.

I don't like this idea because it throws a job bias in there. For me to kill Horntail I'd probably have to be 16x or waste 50 SP in HP to survive. Not to mention have some ins with the HT group. A mage could (as Harrisonized is evidence of) go in there and survive at 12x. Does that seem fair? No, it doesn't.
