So what legislation coming into effect are you actually against? Because you seem to be in favour of banning smoking in most public places (which isn't a far cry from preventing it in, say, the Pyramid Field at Glastonbury).   Are you against the government phasing smoking out over the next few generations? That would be a strange thing to be against. Because if people never smoke, then they won't want to smoke. Smoking isn't like a drug that gives someone an instant high or anything. People only want to do it because they've become addicted.   And I think you should drop the smoking vs drinking comparisons, because it sounds a bit silly. Obviously smoking is much worse in all the categories you listed. Yet again, you're choosing to drag another thing that you say is "bad" into the conversation to justify another thing that's "bad". If you're intent on doing that all the time, at least do it convincingly 🤣

But it doesn't matter WHEN you join the waiting room, the QueueID is randomly assigned a place at 9am (or 6pm on Thursday). Being on the page an hour before did not mean you were first in the queue.    You could be assigned 1 minute, 1 hour or 10 hours at 9am, regardless of when you went onto the waiting list.   The queue is only the queue at 9am. That's why it's a waiting room before 9am.

Edit: missunderstood  

Yep. It's a vaguely interesting titbit for anyone who wants to delve into that level of detail.   Though ultimately can't see any way to learn more from it than we already get from the annoying progress bar, or utilise it in any practical way.
