Repeatable Missions

Else group A is going to blast the brahmins and group B was waiting there already since 2 hours or the brahmins are already dead when they arrive, etc... Such stuff is better done with NPCs.

Hmm, how difficult would it be to have two separate questgivers saying 'Come back here at noon'. The quest runs every hour, and has some kind of level limit. They won't pitch levels 5s and level 21s together, for example. When the mission starts they're both instantly teleported to either end of an instanced map. If no other group is prepared to be on the other team, you just fight NPCs.
The same could work with caravan missions. You go to Far Go Traders if you want protection missions, you go to Crimson Caravans if you want to attack people. Everybody knows they run at noon on the 3rd/9th/12th/15th/etc. Hell, we could even pin that to the town noticeboards.
Thoughts?

No, I'm totally for this idea. I actually quite enjoy these Monte Carlo-Fetch Somethin' - Quests as it is totally random, I never know which crazy thing he wants next.

I guess I am totally screwed when he asked for 9 radscorpion tails. Can I pay him to cancel previous jobs？
Edit：
NPC factions should have unique repeatable quests/unique rewards just for the reason to be part of that faction i.e.
VC: scout map, clean small raider hide out, retrieve Hi-tec stuff gecko reactor construction site etc. Rewards could be medical supplies

Same here, 9 flowers. I just stopped doing the quests. Which was a shame, because I quite enjoyed them.

And because it runs so often, it shouldn't have too dire consequences if you didn't win/participate. Maybe after 100 caravans there could be some bigger consequences.

It doesn't even have to function as an actual caravan and drag you around the map. It just needs to teleport you and have the people on the other side of the map marked as hostile, register who's won, and teleport them back.
