Arraylists

Hello everyone,

I'm making a Vote Plugin where, players can type /vote <player> to vote for a player.
I need to have the players there has been voted for in a config.yml.
I use a Array called 'votedplayers' where, all the players who are voted for , are in.
I need to set this array to an arraylist in the config.yml.
I have tried Arrays.asList, but I can't figure it out.
I also need to add players to the list, as soon as a player does /vote <player>

Could you guys help me out?

Code I have so far:

Don't make 2 threads for the same question... http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/plugin-help-with-custom-config-and-arraylist.69682/

It will just confuse people.

 

Sorry, but this kind of an other problem. I'm trying to add something to the Arrays.asList but it doesn't work?
