Keep Votes

1. Keep - Author vote ~m ^T! 03:22, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
2. Keep - To quote myself, "When you've only got room to carry a handful of items, every opportunity to use one becomes a pressing decision; should you use it now, or might there be a better opportunity later? Whatever you do, there's a fear that you could've put it to use better somehow else. Decisions + Fear = Fun" Also, this: --VVV ^RPGMBCWS 03:57, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
3. I like it a lot, actually. Simple, to the point, and fair. —Aichon— 04:52, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
4. Good addition. I could probably name at least a dozen games with this mechanic built in. Good games. I probably could but I'm lazy. ~ 18:12, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
5. Keep/Change - Remove the "unless they have Bodybuilding" clause and just have it be a hard limit. Then I'm on board. 21:33, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   Re - Will do, as soon as this closes voting! I'm thinking of messing with Free Running too, while we're at it; see which version gets more Kills. I'm feeling frisky. ~m ^T! 19:55, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

6. Keep/change - I like it but would want to see the bodybuilder part removed--Honestmistake 15:36, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
7. Keep - It would be easy to say "against, everyone gets bodybuilding", but the same thing happens with LG. It would be a minor inconvenience at best, but encourage people not to exploit the fact that you *can* go over 100% encumbrance. -- Bisfan 11:05, 30 December 2010 (UTC)

Kill Votes

1. Kill - Pointless, because everyone has Bodybuilding a few months into the game. The only ones who would be hurt by it are newbs. -- Spiderzed▋ 06:37, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   Re - And zombies moving at 2AP is pointless, because lurching gait is the first skill almost all zombie players buy. Your point? Anyway, the only people this would hurt are newbs hoarding items. ~m ^T! 16:44, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

2. Kill - It's definitely fair but it goes against my beliefs on what the game should be; we should be getting rid of the 2AP laws for characters, not adding them to everyone to make sure it's "fair". -- LEMON #1 07:17, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   Re - I'm not intending to be "fair", just "challenging" and "fun" seem enough to me (and here, I am following TripleU's "Decisions + Fear = Fun" logic). ~m ^T! 16:44, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   I disagree. Less arbitrary AP penalties = fun. Especially when the only people being affected are newbs (hence Yons comment. No he wasn't calling you a noob) -- LEMON #1 14:04, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

3. Kill There's no upper limit for bodybuilders stated, the characters can still freerun seemingly freely, and also Suggestion:20080131 Working Load --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 11:43, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   Re - Tell the truth, I'd gladly have it so bodybuilders would have the same restriction. Griefers would flame my ass to oblivion, tho. As for the dupe, sorry 'bout that. Wasn't on the freq. suggested, and no one mentioned it during the week I put it up for discussion. ~m ^T! 16:37, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

4. Kill - Newbs.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 16:40, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   Re - um... you're not suggesting I am a newb just because you disagree with me, are you? ~m ^T! 16:45, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

5. Any newbies at 300+ encumbrance due to Halloween will be greatly affected by this. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 17:23, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
6. Worthless suggestion. Make the game more fun, not less. There is no fear in this game. - User:Whitehouse 17:57, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

   Kill - This would just affect noobs who hoard items, beside AP penalties remove fun and excitement.

   Unsigned vote struck. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 19:58, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
