Okay, so this is working how I originally thought. So really the only difference between here (if all who wanted to turned in books) and Red99 would be that you couldn't kill blues out of camps.

Is that really where most of the fun is? I definitely see this being entertaining, but I can also see it losing its novelty pretty quickly. I thought the fun/competition/skill is more about actually combating players rather than doing tricks like engaging them when they're fighting mobs or charming their healer and running him out of the room when they're fighting Ghoul Lord.

Contesting over camps is probably the most reason anyone would want to play on a red server. Yes, I would say it is that important, at least its the reason I will play on r99.

I think there will be a huge number of players at first, even more than the blue server for the following reasons:

1. Being able to start from scratch at the beginning. Many people missed out on loot they wanted to get (manastone, guise, rubi, etc) and this gives them a chance to do it.
2. Many people are realizing there is nothing to do in blue EQ aside from poopsock. The game consists of sitting there to get gear, only to use that gear to get more gear. There will be alot more entertainment at the endgame on a red server.
3. People are so fed up with poopsocking and not being able to contest over camps.
