Just want to reiterate that switching to randomness solves nearly everything people complain about.

Want to take a break and not sit there for 24+ hours? Great: take your break, and when you come back you have just as much random chance as when you left.

Are people cheating list afk checks? Well, even if they aren't, everyone hated afk checks ... but in a random system, there are no afk checks. Your "afk check" is that you could win the roll, but if you're afk and don't kill the mob in X minutes, there's another roll and you lose your chance.

Is some low-level sitting in the manstone list? Great! If they win the random roll, they have X minutes to kill the mob ... and then if they can't, there's another random roll. Everyone else is only inconvenienced X minutes, and pretty soon people will learn there's no point in having a low-level sit-in line.

Same deal for beads camp: you can sit there and not help, but then there won't be any random rolls and you'll be sitting a long time. Everyone at the camp has a stake in clearing the holgresh, because everyone has a chance of winning the random roll.

Now, I'm not against making these items lore, and obviously the Holgresh /list boundaries could use some improvement, but overall I think the vast majority of /list issues would be solved with a random system.

This has been discussed before. The answer was no. Move along, pleb.

Failing an afk check after 56 hours, at #1, while at my computer, with fraps on, while chatting in group and voice.

System is aids, driving you to the edge of whats healthy and beyond.

Did maybe 500hrs of /list combined soloing, and assisting/getting assistance from others for all the usual camps. Absolutely unhealthy nonsense.

Gnome warrior? I was there when that guy failed at #1. Twas sad, but also epic.
