The Waitfor Command

Wait for another player to log in.

Syntax: waitfor name

With the waitfor command you can request a notification to be sent to you when a certain player logs in. Let's say you type:

waitfor marvin

and marvin logs in. You'll see a message saying:

** FINALLY!!! marvin logs in

and marvin will see a message saying:

<whatever_your_name_is> is waiting for you to log in.

You can wait for more than one player at a time. There is no way to stop waiting for a player unless that player logs in or you log out. Type waitfor without a name to see a list of players you are waiting for.
