One of the problems I ran into with the (25 man) General Vezax fight was keeping track of when it was my turn to kick. It was easier in RoS; when the cooldown was up, it was my turn. But the General sometimes casts Searing Flames as often as he can and sometimes waits a bit to cast it.
So I wrote an addon to help with tracking this. Basically, it looks at the combat log, and any time another rogue does a kick, it puts an icon on the screen with that rogue's name and a 10 second timer. You can pick a particular rogue to follow by right clicking on their target portrait and choosing them, and after they do their kick it will put a "You are next!" message on the screen. Samples are shown in the lower left of the images attached.
It occurred to me that it would also help on the Thorim fight with tracking disarms/dismantles, so I added an additional row for those. It will show any kick (or shield bash, etc.) on one line and any disarm/dismantle on another. This is also useful on Gormak, where there might be a bunch of warriors and rogues dismantling or disarming. There is one line for kicks, another for dismantles. It works for any of kicks, pummels, wind shock, etc.
It can also be used by priests to set up a fear ward or guardian spirit rotation in the same way. (On the option screen, press the "change spellset" button and it will change from kicks/disarms to Big Cooldowns/Little Cooldowns.)
There are a variety of options, type /kickalert or /kal for a list.
