Also - one word commands don't need to be closed in the qutation marks.
    Decimal points do work as I can use /wait 2.5 with a stone II loop as well as a cure loop without any problems. Yes i have read the patch notes a while back about them removing the decimals, but if those looping macro's work with a recast time of 2.49 on each spell and /wait 2.5 works then that suggest that decimal points are not ignored. Also I did say that I tried /wait 3 without any results which shows the problem is not with my macro but with the engine itself. The fact you have to use /wait 4 for this to work is worthy of a bug report, we shouldn't have to spend an extra second to "work around" the problem.

    Regarding the quotations, I do it on all my action macros to make it habit so I never forget to do it on non single word commands. It makes no difference either way on single words.

    Could be an animation induced delay. There may be a 2.5s cast time/GCD before the spell "fires" but that doesn't mean the action is complete.
