Replicating that process on Lodi is a terrible idea.

Just change the spawn timer. Make him completely random. No window, no variance, no skips. Work out the probabilities so he spawns at roughly the same rate, but with no rules on timing. If folks wanna spend 48 straight hours sitting at Lodi spawn to race for FTE, let them.
This. I know this isn't the Scout Roll amendment thread, but, I am still in favor of Loramin's suggestion there regarding bring-your-own-group and there being a /list mechanic for each group.
