Moved Fiction to Its Own Page

It seems like most people wanted this, so I went ahead and worked on this page. The fiction is preserved, if anyone cared for it, and was moved to its own page: Pre-Outbreak History of Malton. The more glossary-like page that I made still needs some work. Notably the Game History section is just a link, and should probably be expanded to a summary of the major events of the game. --Zarneverfike 06:39, 10 June 2010 (BST)

Location

Saying that it could be in "South Africa, America, Canada, Australia or Belize" more or less directly contradicts the rest of the article. Just wanted to mention that.--Labine50 MEMS | MHG 04:19, 7 April 2009 (BST)

Demonym

Was "Maltonian" the only demonym considered for Malton? What about "Maltonite?" --Bishop Vagancia I 09:42, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Aye mate, I'm for that!--Super Nweb 08:25, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Suggestion for Picture

As of now there is no picture for Malton on it's page. I suggest this picture. It is of a real city named Malton, it even has a newspaper office with a sign ontop that says "The Malton Gazette". I think this is a perfect fit for out cities picture. Please vote below int he way we do for other suggestions, and remember, sign your posts!!!--Super Nweb 08:07, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Voting (Suggestion for Picture)

  1. Yes - I thought of it.--Super Nweb 08:07, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
  2. Nay - I don't like the picture. :| --Janus talk 12:21, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
  3. Yes, but only cause anythings better than nothing. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 08:55, 2 April 2009 (BST)
  4. Nope - Anything is not better than nothing. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 19:06, 2 April 2009 (BST)
  5. Nope - Not my cup of tea. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 21:08, 2 April 2009 (BST)
  6. no - should we even have a pic for malton, since its location could be anywhere?--JHORROR Black Delta Mockridge Heights 21:11, 2 April 2009 (BST)

Removing Fanfic Content

i was gonna remove all fanfic from this page, but then i realized most of the page would be gone by doing so. The organizations section was removed, and i think its the only i can easily remove from there cuz it only serves to advertise groups who are not even that famous in Malton. If such section would to remain, only mentions to the military and necrotech should remain. --People's Commissar Hagnat talk mod 15:01, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Latin Motto

I think invenire is a bad verb to use there, it means more to 'stumble upon', rather than find by searching, which is what reperio does; thus: Quaeris et nihil reperis. --Venerax 08:53, 27 May 2009 (BST)

I think someone has already suggested a better translation before, no one wanted to change it because they didn't want to have to re-edit the coat of arms, as I think the original uploader of it went AWOL. DANCEDANCEREVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 09:00, 27 May 2009 (BST)

...Considering the motto on this page is already different to the 'official unofficial' coat of arms Latin.. (Which is rubbish, really: "I search (for) you because/which I find nowhere"), so I'll just go ahead; again, it is only a minor, fussy change. --Venerax 05:05, 28 May 2009 (BST)

Flag

Why does the flag is equal to a real life kingdom flag (Kingdom of Castile & Leon)? Can't we change it? --Thoroaeborus 23:19, 7 August 2009 (BST)

Survivor/Zed Disbalance?

What is up with the throwoff between survivors and zombies? I don't get it... why are survivor numbers spiking now, of all times. Is it related to PKer groups in anyway? -- Comrade Texidor

It was my opinion that Survivors have had this numerical advantage over zombies for nearly two years now. -- 09:23, 31 March 2010 (BST)
Isn't there a stat line chart or something we can keep track of? --Comrade Texidor 14:51, 4 April 2010 (BST)
Ta Da! Survivor-Zombie Imbalance --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:27, 4 April 2010 (BST)
PKing is a teeny tiny minority of the action in Malton. I mean, I do try, but there's about 100 pro-survivor types for every PKer out there. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 21:35, 4 April 2010 (BST)
In fact the biggest danger to survivors is often themselves. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 21:36, 4 April 2010 (BST)

While on the topic, my stats page has zombies listed as 6155 of 20676 players. However, on the class breakdown, it says 6156 characters are zombies. The survivor total is correct though. Anybody know who our mystery zombie is?--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:49, 4 April 2010 (BST)

Someone standing up between you seeing 6155 on the first page, and 6156 on the other? Check the number of bodies or total players on both pages in case the number is off there too. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 00:19, 5 April 2010 (BST)
It's on the same page, and I even refreshed a few times. The numbers have changed, but there's still a difference of one. The number isn't off for bodies. Bodies and reviving bodies are both included under survivor for class breakdown. The total also has one less at the top of the page.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 23:39, 5 April 2010 (BST)
