Too many holes in derubaels rule. What's to stop someone from having a list of 200 people that are in their guild every time they have a camp? If person 1 "can't come" ( isn't online), then move to person 2. Rinse and repeat until you find someone to come take over.

And for people saying that whoever is waiting at the camp would get to take over if no one on the list could come, often there is no way of knowing if the sought after item dropped. There's also a very low chance that the next spawn or two will have the rare mob along with the rare drop, so in reality someone on the list has an hour or so to get over there, with no one the wiser.

Someone could also exploit the technicality of having to leave the camp after the item dropped by appending themselves onto the new list (have a rotating door of two or three people). Most camps take so long to drop the rare item that whoever is sitting there waiting is very unlikely to wait until 1-3 rare items drop, so no one will realize this is happening.

No. If you are asked if you have a list you are required to respond with a name or forfeit the camp when you leave. You cannot change the next person on the list, this is a forfeiture of the camp when you leave. The person next on the list is required to be there "soon" after the PH spawns. The person holding the camp is responsible for the list after assuming the camp. If they cannot provide a name and a toon to replace them, it defaults to the first in line at the camp physically.

Why people would want to spend this much time on a 15 year old game making lists and waiting in line is beyond me. But it is what it is I guess.
