Heres what I have on the flag poles so far:

The Faction Flag Rules

The general structure of a territory claim is as follows:
1. A player uses a flagpole, thereby beginning a claim attempt.
2. That player must stand their ground for a pre-determined set of time.
3. At the end of the time period, if that player is still alive and in the room then the claim attempt is a success and the flagpole changes to display that player's faction's flag (or no flag at all for an unfactioned player).
4. If that player dies, leaves the area, or loses possession of the flag they are using to claim the pole, then the attempt is a failure.

A player who uses the flagpole object must satisfy the following conditions (in sequence) to begin a claim attempt:
1. Must be a player.
2. Must not be a Bard/Guide.
3. Must be eligible to participate in the faction events.  This currently means 40+ hp.
4. Must follow a different faction from the flagpole's current status.
5. There must not be another attempt already in progress (an attempt in progress will show up in the flagpole's description).
6. There must be a flagpole of the claimant faction (the person trying to take the flagpoles faction) in an adjacent territory (where 'adjacent' means one exit away).
7. The last claim attempt (whether it succeeded or failed) must not have been too recent (where 'too recent' is currently set to a pre-determined time).
8. There must be at least 20 users logged on.
9. The claimant must possess a flag of their faction's colors (unfactioned players excepted).
10. There must be at least 5 players of the same faction as the claimant in the room.

The players on the server are made aware when the following happens:
1. Claim attempt.
2. Claim success.
3. Claim failure:
· claimant killed.
· claimant left the room.
· claimant dropped the flag.
· claimant loses faction status.
