I have 2 dedicated blue characters that never go beyond 4 counts, and 2 dedicated reds. I have a dexer and mage of both colors, so I can always be prepared for whatever situation I am getting into. If we're doin a spawn, I will bring the blue dexer. If we're raiding, Ill bring one of the reds, whichever I'm in the mood to play..

I know I always count the blues at a spawn, cause it pisses em off when they turn red in the middle of a spawn and cant play in the endgame... If there is a blue flagging in say, Yew, chances are they are trying to go red and I wont count them, cause I feel they need to earn their redness by actual fighting, not being a piece of crap roaming around the gate in and out of houses and taking pop shots to try to get a piece of a kill to get a count.
