Is it an electronic board or on paper/dry erase? You could sign up and then ask how many people ahead of you. Then after the number of people seated exceed the number they told you, ask what the F is going on. They really can't be Richards to you since they are the ones bending you over.

The people that are good at getting players in before they should don't have to worry about this as they are good at doing it (they keep some names on the list so if someone they want to get in shows up they give them that seat so the people waiting aren't aware they are being skipped).

They aren't that clever I will often see a list with one hand writing and 2 names at the top with different handwriting. Sometimes the floor just doesn't report the seat open to the brush. Sometimes they know when someone on the list is gone and they take that seat. Sometimes they just look for someone to not respond when a name is called and then say it's them. One time someone tried to represent that they were me until I showed up at the seat. Another time a player I knew and was waiting with said, "remember today I am this name and didn't realize it was me." I used to get so confused with players names when they seemed to have a different one every day.
