Gah, I now officially hate lists.

var/battlewaitinglist[]
proc/
    battle_WaitingList(mob/M)
        battlewaitinglist.Add("Joey","Phil","Bob")
        var/thelist = ""
        var/cur = 1
        thelist += "<table>"
        while(cur <= battlewaitinglist.len)
            var/thename = battlewaitinglist[cur]
            thelist += "<tr><td>[cur]</td><td>[thename]</td></tr>"
        thelist += "</table>"
        M << browse(thelist)


Proc is being called from a users verb now... usr=me src=null mob/M=usr... but .Add is undefined?! I've also tried:
var/battlewaitinglist[]    null.Add()
var/battlewaitinglist[0]   Byond Crashes
var/list/battlewaitinglist null.Add()

Try battlewaitinglist = list(), or battlewaitinglist = new()

var/list/battlewaitinglist = list() crashes.
var/battlewaitinglist = list() compile errors.

*sigh* What I've got now:
var/list/battlewaitinglist = new/list()

proc/
    battle_WaitingList(mob/M)
        battlewaitinglist.Add("Joey","Phil","Bob") //Buggy Line causing problems...
        var/thelist = ""
        var/cur = 1
        thelist += "<table>"
        while(cur <= battlewaitinglist.len && battlewaitinglist != null)
            var/thename = battlewaitinglist[cur]
            thelist += "<tr><td>[cur]</td><td>[thename]</td></tr>"
        thelist += "</table>"
        M << browse(thelist)

I feel like an idiot. Take a look at my while loop... is cur ever incresed? No. Infinite loop... amazing isn't it? Place a cur++ and everything works great, thanks for all the help, I'm learning.

It's almost always a dumber mistake than you think :)
