acts_as_list with scope of current_user? possible?

Subject says it all. Is it possible to user the current_user variable from the acts as authenticated and restful authentication plugin in the scope call of an acts as list on the model?

the current_user method in the acts_as_authenticated plugin is not a db field so the acts_as_list won't work with this method (not "user variable" as you mentioned). It will work however with the :user_id in the model users and yes, you can scope the users any way you want..

In the container for your users, whether it's a "group", "club", "party", etc.. do

class Party < ActiveRecord::Base   has_many :users, :order => position end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base   belongs_to :party, :scope => party_id end
