Went to take the quest today, and it reported a party was already taking it, even though the names it listed weren't actually logged on.

They probably didn't finish it and didn't choose the abort option. The quest seems to work fine to me. :P

Yes, but most quests seem to automatically cancel/clear if the party logs off, so I thought I'd report this as a bug.

What if the party is a single player, and he just got crashed? >_>

This quest should now detect when it has been abandoned and automatically clear.

Please file another report if this happens again.
