Say that I strongly suspect there's a gate on an island. In order to check
it out, my gatecrafter, mage A, has to be actually on the island. Now, I
could land the ship and wait 7 days for him to cast the spell. Instead, he
stacks with noble B, a sailor.
Day 1: mage A starts his detect spell.
Day 6: sailor B lands on the island.
Day 7, priority 2: sailor B moves off the ship
Day 7, priority 3: mage's detect skill goes off, while he's on the island
Day 7, priority 1: mage A sets off a flag that he's done
Day 7, priority 2 again: sailor B moves back on board ship
Day 7, priority 4: the ship goes on its merry way
