Crucifixes

Timestamp: Super Nweb 08:05, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Type: Flavour
Scope: Humans
Description: Crucifixes *Prepares to be flamed* are a useless part of Urban Dead, so why not make them "Usefullerish" if that is even a word. Make it so you can attack with a crucifix and the text reads 'You hit XXX on the head with a crucifix while shouting religious phrases, they get a bruise on the head and nothing else, dealing 1dmg'. It would have a 25% hit rate and deal one damage (1/4th as powerful as the knife to put it in perspective).

Discussion (Crucifixes)

Half damage and half to hit? That would be 50% as powerful as a knife....

The only thing that crucifixes should grant is an automatic success when it comes to molesting children. However there is no "Molest Minor" action in UD so crucifixes will remain useless. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem!

Looky there, it's Iscariot again making such a completely called for and witty comment totally not trying to offend anyone! I believe this the 10,000th one too! Let's give him a Standing O!--SirArgo Talk 08:46, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
Awww. Argo, are you one of these delusional fuckwits who believes that some omnipresent father figure will spank those who are mean to you after you die? If you are, a true prophet will now inform you what you should do. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem!

No, I just don't see why fucktards like you have to make their balls feel big by publicly and for no reason insulting things they don't agree with. Then again, I'm trying to reason with THE LORD ISCARIOT. PRAISE HIM AND HIS OMNIPOTENT WIKIMARTYR STATE. For someone who hates religion, you sure to love to act like God.--SirArgo Talk 05:49, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

A 'standing O' is choir boy slang. It has nothing to do with clapping. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 05:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Wow, did your mom hit you over the head with a rock when you were young, or did your dad beat you?--SirArgo Talk 05:50, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
50% chance to hit / 2 = 25 / 2 (Since it is half the damage) = 12.5 12.5 X 4=50 Iscariot, before you decide to make witty comments make sure you actually do the math correctly. --Super Nweb 01:54, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Damage and accuracy are two unconnected values, it's not height and depth. But do continue to think they are. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 05:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Damage * accuracy = average damage per AP, which is generally used as a measure of how powerful a weapon is. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 08:44, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
And I thought you could calculate. Halving something twice only leaves a quarter. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 17:45, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
This seems as good a place as any: Why is it that everyone in Suggestions hates everyone else in Suggestions? Seriously. All I see are people complaining, deriding and yelling. Has it always been this bad, or is this a recent development? -CaptainVideo 05:03, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
You do realise we've been really nice to each other recently? -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 05:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Mister, I think you and I have different definitions of "nice." -CaptainVideo 03:21, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Iscariot just hates religion because he doesn't believe in a deity and other people do. Naturally, he acts like a condescending jackass when anyone brings up the topic in his stomping grounds. People roll their eyes and call him out on his jackassery. It's the circle of life. Kind of. --William Told and Co. ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ 09:48, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Dearest Iscariot,
I know you like to mock people because they don't accept your word as law, but you seriously need to get some of that sand out of your vagina. Sure, you're not especially witty and your intelligence is vastly exceeded by your own estimation of your intelligence, but you don't have to take your frustration and hostility out on people for not recognizing the greatness you assume to be obvious in yourself. It makes you look like a jackass.
With Heavenly love,
--William Told and Co. ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ 09:46, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Iscariot: 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.25 – he was correct. :P Super Nweb: Get rid of the pointless flavour text, particularly the "shouting religious phrases" – that's what the Speech action is for. No free actions. Otherwise, this is fine. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾ 07:44, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Yup, Iscariot has forgotten math. It would have to have 100% to hit to be as good as the knife which deals 1 damage per AP, this deals .25 damage per AP(1 damage every 4 AP). Some people really just need to learn when they don't know what the fuck they're talking about and stop there.--Karekmaps?! 21:22, 5 March 2009 (UTC)

Also, for future reference I would leave your suggestion here for discussion for at least a week or two before you decide to put it up for a vote. --Maverick Talk - OBR Praise Knowledge! 404 08:28, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

A good guideline is "Don't put it to voting until the discussion has died down". It can be less than a week or it can be more. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 08:44, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Ja, I waited for a week after the talk died down on my crucifix suggestion, and it was peer reviewed. :P--William Told and Co. ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ 09:46, 5 March 2009 (UTC)
Aww iscariot just needs a hug >--Alex1guy 17:46, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
