As I stated in my reply, it all depends on factors that you have
little or no control over. I know for a fact that I've been in
the Lord room waiting around for 45 mins on a crowded night in
Lguk with 80 people in the zone. I know this has happened to
others just by listening to the ooc/shout 'Geez, when is X gonna
spawn already, it's been like 50 mins'

My mask dropped on the 5th spawn after 4 placeholders. The assassin
took his sweet time too, as we were about to leave since it was
clear he wasn't spawning on time - (had to wait an extra 5 mins from
the normal timings I was doing) he decided to show up.

If everything is running smoothly, then all things should respawn
on time. If they aren't then you will know right away. Everytime
I see the number 34 posted here, I think about all those people
wondering where the hell X spawn is after it's 34.0 mins are up.

Plus my guess is this is all running on a non-Unix solution, and
I've never known NT to be that good at anything ;-)

Harmonic.
