For a list to work and the camp to be handed off to you, falsegod should have stayed logged in for when you get there.
The citation from the Elf Lore is as such:

"The person handing off the camp must stay at the spawn until the next person in line arrives" - The Wise Derubael (Ret.)

If you really want the camp you need to stay close to it. If you forsake that for the convenience of holding another camp while you wait, then you depend on the other player to be there for the handoff. That's the risk you assume. If something happens to them and you're right there, you're golden. If you're far away and they leave quietly for some reason, the camp is up for grabs.

Assume you log into a dungeon zone. You see a popular camp open and cleared. You call out CC and no one answers. The assumption is that the last person cleared the camp and logged off. Or that he was trained out. Or he went linkdead. You take the camp.

Personally, if I'm waiting for a camp I will answer their CC if they immediately don't. Like I'll say "Bubba has AM and I'm next" if Bubba is quiet for some reason.

The Elf Court rules for Sensational and party, et al.

CC is 100% meaningless. Even if it wasn't, there are no timestamps on any of this stuff. You are just making shit up at this point, but i think we know what guild you are in.

Roleplay this out for me:

You, DMN, log into Lower Guk near the AM spawn.

You scratch your balls (I'm making assumptions but bear with me) and you yawn and you notice the AM camp is clear.

You do a /who

You call out "CC".

No one answers.

You look around the corner.

No one there.

No one even close.

You sit down and wait for the pop.

Three minutes later player X shows up and says "AM is mine. Player Y who was here before gave it to me."

Player Y was not in the zone when you did your /who.

Do you yield?

I'd ask in ooc if player Y was camping the AM before.

My main is in Dial-A-Port. To me everyone is a profusely thankful walking sack of plat.

This is why I'm completely impartial in all Elf Court matters.

Just like the multi-camp discussion - another scenario wherein a camp is presumed to be open because no one is there. A lot of rules to dance around and protect people that have a ton of different reasons why they can't seem to be at the camp they claim to hold when it pops
