20090825 Last reviver reviver's note!!!

Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 20:25, 25 August 2009 (BST)

Suggestion type
Extractor Drivvle

Suggestion scope
Extractors? So, people who used to be tractors I guess...

Suggestion description
Pow, pow, pow! This suggestion suggests that you, when DNA extracting a zombie, get a small message saying who the last extractor (within a week) was. If there wasn't, it says "Data unavailable". Pow, pow, pow!

I'm submitting it, although there were some concerns on DevSug about how this would be possible as flavour. I'd say it's something along the lines of each time you extract, the extractor, which is registered to a necrotechnician, sends off a signal to the NT mainframe, or something.

So... I dunno.... vote or something.

Keep Votes

  1. Author Vote - I guess...--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 20:29, 25 August 2009 (BST)
  2. Uncertain Keep - I like the idea of NecroNet improvements, but am unsure whether this will cause major changes. I'll vote keep for now. Nemesis645 21:34, 25 August 2009 (BST)
    This doesn't effect Necronet. o.O --Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 21:36, 25 August 2009 (BST)
  3. Keep - Meh. Why not? -- Uberursathis bear wants honey 20:22, 26 August 2009 (BST)
    Because it's a terrible idea?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 11:19, 27 August 2009 (BST)
    I've seen worse. -- Uberursathis bear wants honey 17:32, 27 August 2009 (BST)
  4. Keep - What's the worst that could happen? User:Armpit_Odor/sig 21:40, 27 August 2009 (BST)

Kill Votes

  1. Kill - Why, exactly? This fixes no problem, provides no new entertainment, and basically adds useless information. I've never poked a zombie and wished I could know who had scanned him recently, and I don't see why anyone else would either. Lelouch vi Britannia is helping make Ridleybank green_ and gives Achievements 22:36, 25 August 2009 (BST)
  2. Kill - i just think that this would be a waste of time to even think of implanting it into game,who really cares about who was last reviver?..what you gonna do,find and kill him?.a complete kill.--Brainiac 00:33, 26 August 2009 (BST)
  3. Kill - As Lelouch--Orange Talk 00:34, 26 August 2009 (BST)
  4. Kill - There's no point to this, and would only burden the server. --Johnny Yossarian 01:53, 26 August 2009 (BST)
  5. Kill like above, it isn't really useful and just causes extra charges to the holy creator of UD :O --Gat 03:10, 26 August 2009 (BST)
  6. Kill - As above. --DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION-- 12:03, 26 August 2009 (BST)
  7. Kill - No. --Sonofagun18 16:21, 28 August 2009 (BST)
  8. Kill - useless information -- boxy talkteh rulz 10:28 30 August 2009 (BST)
  9. Kill - I don't want to know who tagged the zed before me. The glory is mine, all mine. I mean, it's not really useful to know that. --~Dr Frank (t) (DF) [P] (Sb) 12:52, 3 September 2009 (BST)
  10. Kill - I do agree that the DNA extractor needs to be jazzed up a bit but this 'feature' has no applications - role-playing, in-game, meta-game or realism. - Zig13 - 4/09/2009 at 10:37(BST)

Spam/Dupe Votes

  1. Spam - There is no RP justification for this. None whatsoever. How and why would you be able to know this information???? Makes no sense. Furthermore, it's just an excuse for more trenchcoating: "ZOMG! You revived that PeePeeKayer D3th KLUTEST you bastard! boom! headshot, lol". In other words the only people this really helps are those who harass and harrang PKers and Death Cultists. Finally, it doesn't fix a "problem" with the game, nor does really add to the fun. --WanYao 10:28, 26 August 2009 (BST)
    I actually answered that question in the suggestion Wanyao. Tell me when you've read it so that I can "Remove this suggestion for editting".--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 11:33, 26 August 2009 (BST)
    I was going to say that that wasn't a valid argument... but then I remembered that scanners tell you who the zombie is, so there kinda sorta has to be a central database? Or something... However, it's still an encouragement for trenchacoaters to vendetta-PK, and screws over Pkers and Death Cultists by indirectly messing with zombie anonymity -- by messing with reviver anonymity. --WanYao 12:28, 26 August 2009 (BST)
  2. Spam - your RP excuse wasn't very good, and anyway - why have this psychic ability? I mean, something that gave you a creepy feeling that there were 100 zombies hiding in the burnt out mall would be useful, and creepy, and good RP (although horribly overpowered), but this seems pointless. --Funt Solo QT Scotland flag.JPG 22:40, 27 August 2009 (BST)
    I agree, I'm thinking of changign my vote to spam to stop the people voting keep.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 11:01, 28 August 2009 (BST)



Voting Rules
Current Suggestions

Advice to Suggesters

  1. Adding options to your suggestion is not good practice. Others will not vote on the options, only the main body; please don't ask them to do so.
  2. Once you have posted your suggestion, it is considered complete. Altering the suggestion mechanics after voting has begun nullifies existing votes, and is considered an abuse of the suggestions system. Doing so will result in your suggestion being removed from the voting system to removed suggestions, where you can work out the details and resubmit later if you desire. It is preferred that you remove your own suggestion and resubmit a new version with changes, if changes are needed.
  3. "Notes" added for clarification purposes, and correcting spelling/typos are permitted. When considering adding a clarification note, it is often better for all parties involved, for the author to remove the suggestion and resubmit it with the clarification included for the voters who have already placed their votes.

Advice to Voters

  1. You are voting on Suggestions, not Users. The text of your vote should not personally attack or denigrate the user who has submitted it... no matter how ridiculous the idea. Flaming and/or Trolling will not be tolerated.
  2. Before voting please read the Suggestions Dos and Do Nots and Frequently Suggested Ideas Page to read about concepts that have been generally considered unworkable in the past. You do not need to follow the guidelines on these pages but they are worth consideration before casting a vote.
  3. One vote per user. No exceptions. You cannot use multiple wiki accounts to vote on a suggestion.
  4. To Vote, use the [edit] button at the top of the voting section, then enter your vote in the the proper format to the end of the relevant section (keep/kill/spam).
  5. It is strongly recommended that voters (especially in the kill/spam sections) justify their vote to help others understand the reason they disagree. Feedback helps new suggesters get a feel for what the community does and does not want included in Urban Dead, and a deeper understanding of the balance needed for a workable suggestion.
  6. Votes must include a signature in order to be considered valid votes. To sign a vote, use --~~~~. Please remember to sign your votes! Unsigned votes will be deleted after 30 minutes or when found.
  7. Each Suggestion will be open to voting for two (2) weeks, measured from the suggestion's Timestamp, unless it is a Dupe or Spam. If, at the end of that time, there are two thirds (2/3) more Keep votes than Kill votes, the Suggestion will be moved to the Peer Reviewed Suggestions page. Otherwise, the Suggestion will be moved to the Peer Rejected Suggestions page.
Rules for Discussions

Votes are NOT the place to discuss Suggestions. This page and archived suggestion pages only to be used for the Suggesting and subsequent Voting of these suggestions. If you wish to discuss the suggestion or vote here, please use this page's Talk page (Suggestion talk:20090825 Last reviver reviver's note!!!). Suggestions do not have to be submitted in order to discuss them. Developing Suggestions can be used to workshop possible suggestions before they are submitted.

Valid Votes
  • Keep, for Suggestions that you believe have merit.
  • Kill, for Suggestions that you believe do not have merit. If you need to discuss a rule fix, use the discussion page.
  • Spam, for the most ridiculous suggestions.
Suggestions can be removed with Spam votes as described on the cycling suggestions page. If the criterion described there are not fulfilled, the suggestion must remain for the whole two weeks.
Spam votes are not a "strong kill", they are simply here to prevent the utterly ridiculous from clogging up the system. If you do not like the idea, and it's not some crazy uber power or something else ridiculous, VOTE KILL, NOT SPAM. Spam votes will be counted as Kill when votes are tallied.
  • Dupe, for Suggestions that are exact or very close duplicates of previous suggestions. For a Dupe vote to be valid, a link must be provided to the original suggestion.
Dupe votes can be used to remove suggestions as described on the cycling suggestions page. Dupe votes will not be counted when votes are tallied.
  • Humourous, for suggestions that are obviously intended to be satirical, or of comedic value only.}}
Suggestions can be removed with Humourous votes as described on the cycling suggestions page. If the criterion described there are not fulfilled, the suggestion must remain for the whole two weeks.
Invalid Votes
  • Server Load and Programming Complexity are NOT very good Kill reasons. You are voting on the merit of the suggestion and whether or not you think it belongs in the game. Server load/complexity issues are up to Kevan to decide.
  • X should be implemented first is not a valid reason for a vote. You are voting on the merit of THIS suggestion, not how it compares to others.
  • Votes that do not have reasoning behind them are invalid. You MUST justify your vote.
Comments
  • Re may be used to comment on a vote. Only the original author and the person being REd can comment. Comments are restricted to a single comment per vote, and it is expected that Re comments be as short as possible. Reing every kill vote is considered abuse of the Re comment. A Re does not count as a vote, and any subsequent discussion not part of the Re comment should be held on the discussion page if there is any extended commenting.
  • Note is used by System Operators to invalidate trolling-based votes. Only Sysops may remove troll-based votes and they do so with a strikeout <s></s> in order to preserve the trolling removal for posterity. The voter may contest the strikeout with the Sysop that struck their vote out on the discussion page. Only a System Operator may remove a strikeout.
All Caps

Try to avoid YELLING, writing in bold, or using italics, except when emphasizing a point which has escaped other voters.
