/readycheck
/p Please start the countdown once everyone is ready.
/echo Ready check started.

What this does

Starts a ready check and tells the party to begin a countdown only after reviewing the result. It deliberately keeps readiness confirmation and the pull countdown as separate decisions.

How to use

Run it at the starting point, wait for every response, and visually check for missing or not-ready members. Start the normal countdown only after the group is actually ready.

Requirements

Be in a party where a ready check can be started, and keep the countdown as a separate game action or macro.

  • Requires or messages a party

Notes

A macro cannot evaluate ready-check results or branch conditionally. Automatically appending a countdown could proceed despite a not-ready response, so always stop and review the result.
