actually, if you can manage to have ten minutes available in the middle of a scheduled raid, you could still participate. Spot generally has that problem as our raids happen in a time frame where he needs to be getting ready for work. he shows up, we let him burn his turns, and off he goes.

with the new method, as long as the anchors are being tended by someone else, a player with just ten minutes to spare could just throw his or her turns in and everyone would be good to go.
