basically its like this ^^

Deru, could you quickly clarify on what happens if more than one person wants to get in line for the camp? Is anyone obligated to keep a list that goes longer than one person?

Say Aaron is camping AC and Bob is in line after him.

Then Joe shows up and asks to be after Bob. Is Bob immediately obligated to honor that request to pass off the camp to Joe? Or does Bob have no obligation to decide who is next in line until he receives the camp from Aaron first?

There was a stimulating dispute in OOT today that didn't seem to be rectified even after pointing out this thread. I was under the impression that the list could extend indefinitely as long as it was kept honestly. But I had a few people who wanted to debate me on my ability preemptively claim a spot more than one person down the list and some people who still wanted to debate the requirement of any sort of list altogether.

I don't think its anyone's responsibility to keep a "list" other than the person who is waiting for the next immediate spot.

Cool has nothing to do with it.

I don't want there being some rule telling me its my role to keep a list of 6 people while i'm at a camp.

I'll keep a the first persons name and shoot them a tell or whatever when i leave.

Personally, I don't think it's all that difficult to create a list macro...

I mean all you have to do is open the macro tab, create one named "List" and do /say Current List ~~ Bob, Slumdog, Joe, Shmoe.

Sure, I can understand not wanting to keep a list longer than a few people, but what else are you doing with that 6-30 minute window between spawns? It takes maybe 15 seconds to create a macro to display a list of waiting people.

[Wenuven]

You don't even need a macro. It's not rocket science.

People who complain that making a list is too much trouble baffle me. Are you joking? You can't be bothered to write down a couple names?

In my opinion, a list creates order and fairness to prevent people from locking down spawns as they casually hand off camps to their friends and guildmates throughout the day. How are you supposed to get a chance to claim the camp otherwise?

I'll never understand why people are so resistant to "playing nice."

[Walth]

Have no problem playing nice - i just ain't playing secretary while playing a game

If its that big of a deal, people should be sitting single file near the camp to reserve their spot.
