Screenshots?
I logged in at work (hey, it was quiet...) via a proxy, and noticed a truly heroic act of Roninism in Roftwood - three zeds killed, and one (myself) pretty badly damaged. As it was a proxy, iWitness wouldn't work, but I took a screenie, as accomplishments like this truly deserve some kind of recognition. Are screenshots acceptable proof? I seem to remember a discussion on this, but I can't seem to find it, despite looking for almost ten whole seconds. --Target Practice 12:30, 5 October 2008 (BST)
Ronin Gallery Template?
Someone needs to make one! How can I, as an upstanding (or not-so-upstanding) UD wiki denizen, properly advertise and support anything without a template!?? --Jen 17:32, 19 September 2008 (BST)
Regarding the definition of "babah" harmanz
- I think I'll just copy what I wrote to Jen about this... And explain why I usually do not consider level 5's babahz ... and why under no circumstances I consider a character with 6 harman skills to be a babah.'
Graaaagh... I don't wanna bicker with you... But, here's my logic in response to this: "Wan says that level 6 =/= babah, and that these guys have no excuse." Ok... Here's the thing... Normally people's 2nd or 3rd skill is going to be Free Running, right? And, if they have half a brain, one of the first 3 skills they get will be Diagnosis. So... Let's look at a generic, reasonably intelligent build for a level 5 survivor...Skills are not necessarily in the order you'd buy them...
- Free Running - duh.
- Diagnosis - excellent XP farming skill
- Construction - if you're not a totally selfish jerk, you buy this skill ASAP.
- Shopping - because malls rawk, even without the Bargain Hunting bonus.
- Any XP farming skill of your choice... DNA scanning is cool, so is "missing with an axe", or even beginning to get some Firearms skills.
So... here we have a Level 5 character with two different ways to farm XP, access to reasonable search success rates in the mall, plus they have Free Running and a skill that makes them useful to other survivors, i.e. Construction. This is a fully viable character and no longer a babah -- an adolscent, yes, a babah, no chance. And, you could be even a bit more XP-hoggish and forgo Construction or even Shopping (and stick with PDs, or perhaps just use an axe) or hell Diagnosis if you're a real trenchcoater... and get one or two or three(!) more combat skills. Therefore by level 5 are a probably a "young adult", by level 6 most certainly you are.
Sure, killing zombies in the street is a fast way to get XP... And level 6 is not a full grown up... But, once you hit level 5 or 6 you are a totally viable survivor and thereforenot a babah, not by any stretch of the imagination. --WanYao 23:57, 20 September 2008 (BST)

- Killed by Lollington, level 5 (i know... but he's clearly a trencher in his skill set), http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=1364782, . killed me while i was waiting for a revive. - tylerisfat 07:01, 8 October 2008 (BST)
- No can do. Trencher or not, he just made it to level 5, probably with your kill. If he does it again, though, he'll go on. Besides, we don't count RP killings as they are considered a legitimate strategy by some death cultist group, and we usually only accept iwitness sceenshots as per the rules above.--William Told 06:10, 9 October 2008 (BST)
