<p style=""> | |||
'''What is this page?''' This is a page where [[the Scourge]] keeps track of all the suburbs it has visited. On subpages, it tracks all the buildings we've ruined. | |||
<br /> | |||
'''Why do you track all this information?''' Back when it was founded in 2016, one of the express goals of the Scourge has been to ruin every building in [[Malton]] at least once. Although we've [[The Scourge/Path|varied in our focus since]], it remains one of our long-term goals. This system helps us track what buildings we've already ruined, and lets us know how far along towards this goal we are. | |||
<br /> | |||
'''How do I use this index to find a specific ruin?''' To find a ruin by date, look above right in the Chronological List and click on the appropriate suburb(s). Ruins are listed approximately by date within each suburb. To find a ruin by location, click the suburb link above left under Alphabetical List, and ctrl+f to find the name of the building you're looking for. (If a suburb is unvisited/redlinked, that means we haven't ruined any buildings there yet.) | |||
<br /> | |||
'''Some of these claimed ruins don't have screenshots/dumwits, or the screenshot doesn't explicitly show the ruin. What's up with that?''' Unfortunately, our screenshotting/dumwitting has been intermittent, especially in the early days when we had fewer members. Nowadays, we have a very specific system for recording ruins in real time, and moving them over to the City Index in batches, which should reduce the quantity of problematic records. Also, over time the platforms hosting screenshots/dumwits may decay or go dark, which is outside of our control. In all these cases, we operate on an honor system for recording these ruins, and if the Scourge's leaders take issue with a specific ruin or screenshot, we won't count it. If there's a specific ruin you'd like to dispute, please let us know via [https://discord.gg/TthGzNX our Discord]. | |||
<br /> | |||
'''Some buildings (i.e. junkyards) aren't ruinable. Therefore how can you ruin "every building"?''' We count junkyards as "ruined" if we remove their barricades and any humans and/or generators inside. (The same applies for any other unruinable buildings, e.g. the [[City Zoo]].) | |||
<br /> | |||
'''I notice that, despite going for several years, you haven't gotten that close to reaching your goal. Why?''' The main reasons are threefold. First, many parts of the city are already in ruins, so we can't claim those ruins for our own. Second, we have other goals, like feeding delicious humans to our baby zombies who're still leveling up, which make us concentrate our efforts on specific, higher-population parts of the city (the average building we've ruined we've ruined about twice). And finally, Malton is ''big''. Even if we were maximally efficient, ruined two buildings a day and never repeated a building, it would still take more than ''eight years'' to ruin every building in the city. Have patience, young one — or [https://discord.gg/TthGzNX join us] and help us ruin 'em all faster! :) | |||
<br /> | |||
'''What if the Scourge takes down a building but another zombie gets the actual ruin?''' In order to count here in the City Index, we require an active member of the Scourge to be the one getting the ruin. We'll occasionally list a major siege in which we participated, but didn't get the final ruin, on our [[The Scourge/Path|Path of the Scourge]] page or in our [[Template:The Scourge/Trophies|Trophy Cabinet]]. | |||
<br /> | |||
'''Why do you have so many fewer ruins in the west/northwest of Malton?''' Many members of the Scourge have alts in other groups, and those tend to be concentrated in the northwest around [[Caiger Mall]]. As we strongly oppose zerging, we never travel to such areas (without intensive alt-avoidance and purposeful idling-out, at least). In addition, much of the west of Malton has been consistently ruined by [[The Dead]] and other groups over the last couple of years; the Scourge doesn't travel to areas that are predominantly in ruins, as we can't claim the ruins or eat the brainz there ourselves. | |||
<br /> | |||
'''I have additional questions not answered here!''' Please get in touch via [[Talk:The Scourge|our group talk page]] or [https://discord.gg/TthGzNX our Discord], and we'd be glad to help you out! | |||
