To use a kitchen timer for spawns you have to be present and aware. With this app (used the way the creator is suggesting) any brain dead drunk drooling moron can know the exact moment the named is coming. Actually, you don't have to be at keyboard. You don't even have to be online! Just open your log hack and see whats due to spawn before you even open everquest.

So much stupidity I don't know where to start.
A) You can do THE EXACT SAME THING with a timer program. The ONLY difference is that with the timer program you need four extra keypresses and a mouse click (ALT+TAB to the timer program, click to start the appropriate timer, ALT+TAB back).
B) You absolutely do have to be online; how could you possibly get log output if you're not logged in?
C) And no, you don't have to be at the keyboard, but then you don't have to with a timer program either (it will make noise that can summon you back to the keyboard).
So either we can all get irrationally fearful of things we don't understand, freak out about timer programs, and start a 30-page long thread about the unfair advantage they offer ... or we can say "hey this has been a part of the game for 15 years and the world hasn't ended; maybe, just maybe, it's not going to end now just because someone made a new log parser".
But of course that ain't happening, so commence with the irrational fearmongering you three.
