Hang 'Em High

Hang 'Em High Welcome Bounty Hunters – Point System – The Scoreboard Trophies & Title Holders – Competition History Welcome Bounty Hunters Greetings bounty hunters, you may all know me as noted NecroTech scientist Caleb Usher, but for the next short while I will also be known for officiating the Hang 'Em High bounty hunting competition. What credentials do I have you ask? Plenty! Albeit none of them involve bounty hunting, but I have worked with the Dulston Alliance long enough to work out the logistics involved and this will serve us well during the competition at hand. The Dulston Alliance has decreed that lawlessness in their territories must come to an end, and while that end is still far from sight, they have decided that an "example" must be made of the local criminals to show others that a life of crime is no life at all. Of course whether your interests in this competition are spurred by the need to bring order and justice to Malton, or to satiate your bloodlust in a justifiable way, then this is what you have been looking for. If there's anything more than a zombie that needs some extreme brain surgery with a .45 automatic it most certainly would be the fellows populating the Alliance's Black List. Yes that's right, the Black List, the list of criminals monitored and maintained by the Dulston Alliance. The Alliance sponsored the competition in the hope that it will lead to greater cooperation and interest among the local survivor population when it came to dealing with criminals. To facilitate this I have generously offered to help oversee the competition, as if there is one thing that I enjoy almost as much as SCIENCE, well I would have to say it's seeing criminals get what's coming to them. But there I go again, talking about myself. I'll be damned if I can't help but be irresistibly fascinating. But without further ado, let me get to the main attraction... Welcome bounty hunters of the northeast! The Hang 'Em High competition takes place in Northeast Malton. While the Dulston Alliance is sponsoring the competition it is not restricted to its members. In fact, whether you are with an Alliance member group, an Alliance ally, or just a local independent survivor, every pro-survivor in the northeast is invited to join in and compete to earn various trophies, including the prestigious Hang 'Em High trophy itself. The competition brings together all pro-survivors against the misguided criminals which disrupt the peace of our fair suburbs with their wanton slaughter and vandalism. The competition will run for about a month, but with a clearly defined start and end date. Also, while the main competition will center on the four northeastern-most suburbs of Rhodenbank, Dulston, Rolt Heights, and Rhodenbank, any criminal wanted on the Black List is fair game no matter which suburb they have skulked off to hide in. Just keep in mind that all targets MUST be on the Black List to qualify as valid executions. Point System Bounty hunters competing in the Hang 'Em High competition may earn points in various ways. The following is the complete list of all standard scoring methods: Score awarded when... Points Executing one of the "Top 10 Most Wanted". 3 points Executing a criminal. 2 points Assisted execution of a "Top 10 Most Wanted" criminal. 2 points (each) Assisted execution of a criminal. 1 point (each) Reporting a criminal's location. 1 point Killing a zombie criminal at a revive point. 2 points Assisted kill of a zombie criminal at a revive point. 1 point (each) Killing a zombie criminal inside a building. 1 point Assisted kill of a zombie criminal inside a building. 1 point (each) Term Definitions Criminal - A criminal (or "target") recorded on the Dulston Alliance's Black List. Criminals from other lists (i.e. the Rogues Gallery) are excluded from this competition unless they are also wanted fugitives on the Black List. Zombie Criminal - A criminal (or "target") recorded on the Dulston Alliance's Black List who is currently a standing zombie. Keep in mind there are only two methods to score points when killing a zombie criminal: when they are inside a building or standing at a revive point. Injuring a zombie criminal at any other location (i.e. outside a building) is scored as an assisted kill if the zombie criminal then proceeds to enter a building or return to a revive point while still injured, whereupon they are killed. "Top 10 Most Wanted" - A list comprised of criminals from the Black List who are considered the most annoying, hardcore, and/or deadliest criminals in the northeast. As this is Northeast Malton we're talking about in general assume they're just the most annoying. 'Deadly' just doesn't factor into the equation that often. The list may be updated from time to time during the competition, but all bounty hunters will be notified in advance of such an update. Updates to the list of criminals are not retroactive (in terms of scoring). Assisted Execution - This is when two or more bounty hunters work together to injure, and kill, the same target. In order to be considered a part of an assisted kill each bounty hunter must inflict at least 15 damage to the target and report the attack (post proof). If at any time the criminal is restored to within 5 points of their maximum health (45 of 50, or 55 of 60) the bounty hunters who attacked the target previously are no longer counted towards the assisted kill score. There's a lesson to be learned in that kind of situation. Reporting - This is when a bounty hunter reports the location of a criminal from the Black List. However, to earn a score the the PKer, whose location was reported, needs to be executed at that location. Furthermore, no bounty hunter may earn points from both reporting and killing the same target (whether assisted or single-handedly). Revive Points - Refers to only official revive points listed for each suburb (all cemeteries are excluded). Temporary revive points are excluded from scoring. The Scoreboard The following is a list of the "Top 10" bounty hunters who participated in the Hang 'Em High. Not every hunter joined on the start date and not every kill was recorded (as proof was required for each one... and sometimes in the heat of the kill this was overlooked). Nonetheless, here stand ten of the thirty-one hunters who chose to compete. Each hunter who made this list not only earned his place in the glorious history of the hunt, but was awarded a trophy fitting their rank.

Hang 'Em High – Deadly Wit "He is winding the watch of his wit; by and by it will strike." --William Shakespeare Druboo is a bounty hunter who knows the pen is just as mighty as the sword. Using a razor sharp wit to finish each of his foes, Druboo provided parting last words to 16 criminals during the Hang 'Em High competition. Competition History The bounty hunting competition first started on January 9th, 2009 and ended on February 28th, 2009 at 12:00 PM (EST). During this month and half-long competition hunters vied for dominance. It should be noted that Zombie Hunting Season had also started in late January, due to the need to "thin the undead herd" as zombies had grown too numerous to ignore even with the bounty hunting competition having only reached its mid-point. The result however was the hunters who targeted both criminals and zombies were forced to chose how they allocated their time in both competitions, and in many cases some chose one competition over the other. Even so, as the competition was open to everyone in contact with the Dulston Alliance there were still more than enough hunters to compete.
