I'm not able to actually look over your logs right now (why are you still using WMO over World of Logs?), but Rawr functions on ideals. It assumes you have very low latency/reaction time, and are always on the target. It's a tool to determine the best gearset, with a long-term DPS number as the value with which to base that on. It is NOT a "predict my DPS" tool, unless everything you fight is like a long patchwerk fight.

On some fights in Ulduar, such as Algalon, you can get very close to your estimated DPS in Rawr. That's not the case with any Tot(G)C encounter.

Posts like this are generally frowned upon; at the very least PM it. Furthermore, it was probably a better post for the Rawr thread.
