Updating note

if you feel sufficiently bored enough, feel free to update the zombie count and whatnot, Try not to be dickbags about it though, thanks.


Interesting....

I saw them at the bottom of the group ranking while checking out the survivor/zed percentages... but the stats only register 40 members.... Arthur Dent BIN LADEN IS DEAD!!!!! 01:41, 20 May 2011 (BST)


Reporting

Please feel free to report any and all of the zergers that you discover at the Zerg Liste here. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 01:46, 20 May 2011 (BST)

Well, if you post a few screenshots of them, we could get a complete list from the UD Profile Database and poke Kevan in an email. We've done it before, on previous zerg hordes. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 02:08, 20 May 2011 (BST)

Dunno. I left it up to the folks on the zerg list to deal with it. As it was said above they've dealt with this kind of thing before, and so would probably have more credibility than some random "the dead" member. Because we all know how much everyone loves the dead. - Serious Post. Please do not silly. You rated this wiki '1'!

There is a lot of them in Penny Heights. I saw some on Coome Lane, Digby Walk, Tuxill Alley Fire Station, and Rossiter Crescent. It's pretty annoying because other Ferals keep groaning at them, so I can't even trust feeding groans right now. Jamis 17:26, 23 May 2011 (BST)

I don't think it has to do with anything for "the dead" as it is more an individual user messaging Kevan about zergs. He tends to ignore individual user report emails on zergers, but since the ZL has worked with Kevan before, he tends to respond when it concerns large-scale zergers. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 21:41, 23 May 2011 (BST)

There's a clipped screenshot of one of them shooting someone. Do we have evidence of whether they are attacking zeds or survivors or both?Doctor Golf 22:29, 23 May 2011 (BST)

Mainly we look for screenshots of them together (or within 9 squares of one another), working in tandem, etc. The idea is to get multiple of them in a screenshot or screenshots of their similar proximity, so we can provide evidence of zerging. If Kevan doesn't do anything, then at the very least we have documentation of them in the Zerg Liste, so people can identify them in-game and "encourage" them to stop. --Akule Maker of fine, hand-crafted UDWiki sass since 2006 -- Akule School's back in session™ 22:55, 23 May 2011 (BST)

As of this morning (5-24-2011) it appears as though UZW is no more. I don't see them on the streets, and they're no longer listed on the stats page. Kent Camp 13:57, 24 May 2011 (BST)

THE GAME IS AFOOT

So is it basically a race at this point to see if UZW or The Dead will ruin Urban Dead first? Because I got a ten-spot on my boys if that's the case. --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) ;x You rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild! @ 01:08, 24 May 2011 (BST)

You know, it could be...

It could be that this isn't a protest against The Dead, but against the search rate changes at low survivor population levels. Might be an attempt to unboost search rates by spamming in a bunch of throwaway street treats and tilting the stats.

It's much better for actual human players to have high search odds, than a bunch of freshly spawned zergs standing around in the street doing nothing.--FT 03:06, 24 May 2011 (BST)

You'd have to define "better", because my idea of things getting better for the survivors is to combat The Dead without boosted search rates, rather than have shit handed to us on a platter when things go awry. It's an interesting idea though, but I'm betting that it's against the dead. -- ϑanceϑanceevolution 03:19, 24 May 2011 (BST)
If this was against The Dead then one would think it would have occurred when survivors dropped to around 10-15% rather than more than a week later when numbers started to rebound as groups began to coordinate on issuing revives in place of repairs. The Dead WISH this was against them because that would mean it was "pubbie tears", the timing of it is far more indicative of someone who like you is pissed at how the search rates rise when survivor numbers are low. --Lord K 03:27, 24 May 2011 (BST)
The Dead don't fucking care. --You rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild!||||||||||||||||||||||||| 03:49, 24 May 2011 (BST)

Too busy laughing at your epeen stroking to say.--Lord K 05:50, 24 May 2011 (BST)
Who the fuck has time to look at things like "evidence" when you can leap and take flight and jump to all the conclusions you need? Paranoia and self-importance are my co-pilots on this amazing trip to the land of assumptions, where everything fits to my scenic rose-tinted view on things because I'm Lord K and I'm a colossal fucking idiot who has the weakest grasp on wit this side of a literal infant. That's right. A baby. An actual baby has a better understanding of what constitutes a cutting retort than the whirlwind of corpulent semi-autistic flab that makes up the earthly form of Lord K, internet nobility, ruling his make-believe fiefdom with a cheeto-stained fist. God fucking save me from this miserable realisation where I am suddenly aware that the air I breathe is shared by Lord K, a human being who has never accomplished anything of worth, and will never accomplish anything of worth, trudging through each pathetic hour with the certainty that only through posting on the fucking internet about fucking imaginary zombies will he be assured any kind of lasting impression on reality. That's all he will ever amount to, a fleeting blip in the universe where he managed to make perhaps upwards of a dozen people regret that he was ever born. Kudos, congratulations, mazel tov, and glory be that your fetid existence has made its mark - even if that mark is just a smudge, a filthy smear of excrement on humanity's backside, because you have decided that somehow you have the moral fucking high ground in an argument you started about a fucking shitty zombie game on the internet, where you didn't even check the facts before posting your damp little fart of an opinion. --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) ;x You rated this wiki '1'!

I'm pleasantly amused by a person who has spent tons of her time making and updating a page which basically amounts to, "Waaahhh, it's too haaaard" suggesting someone else is upset. Thanks for that though, it is highly amusing. Really though, as a bit of advice just from one person to another: stop making this so easy. Prior to this post I've had to spend all of about 1 minute formulating and typing two responses and the most amusing thing is that initially I wasn't even TRYING to start something like this. It's effortless. Really. --Lord K 06:45, 24 May 2011 (BST)

You... do realise that you don't come across as intelligent or witty in any way whatsoever, right?

It's more that it's irrelevant to me how I come across, as you're utterly unimportant to me in almost every way possible. There are very few people whose opinions are important to me and you're certainly not one of them. --Lord K 07:13, 24 May 2011 (BST)

No medication and haven't had or required any for several years. One other thing about it is that many symptoms can lessen or disappear in adulthood. --Lord K 07:38, 24 May 2011 (BST)
See, now I'm veering back to "weird performance art" because I don't think it's possible for anyone to naturally have delivery that stilted, or phrasing that clunky. So, uh...

Shit, dude, if he has the spergin' then it's not really his fault he's a dull, humourless douche. Although I guess it is his fault that he actually goes around and forces himself to interact with normal people.

Mentally it isn't a handicap per say, it simply results in more specialized areas of knowledge. Someone with it can be well above average in one subject and well below average in another. What you're thinking of is probably Kanner syndrome (more often just called autism). When I said it was an advantage in my field I wasn't lying, Asperger's is relatively common amongst those who work in IT, nor is it something I even tend to think of day to day or week to week unless it's mentioned. --Lord K 07:35, 24 May 2011 (BST)
You can't interact properly with other human beings. That is an absence of one of the most defining traits of our species. Therefore, it counts as a mental handicap. Sorry, bucko, but that's a sad fact of life. Also I do kind of feel pity for you right now, but it might just be a fleeting stab of conscience. I'm sure it'll pass. --カシュー, ザ ゾンビ クィーン (ビープ ビープ) ;x You rated this wiki '1'! Great job, go hog wild! @ 07:41, 24 May 2011 (BST)
Your pity is unnecessary, I'm in a much better situation than most people my age and in parts it is due to that diagnosis, even though I otherwise rarely think about it at all. Call it what you like, as I said before your opinion of me doesn't particularly concern me. You're neither personally or professionally important and those who are tend to either like me, not care either way, and/or think I'm some kind of friggin' genius (although I disagree, it is nice).

There may be more

It seems that there may be more names than the ones listed in the article. I'm finding nearly duplicate names registered very closely together, real names that match up, and other interesting tidbits having gone through things some. Kevan may have shut down the names listed on the article already, but I can't really say. Last udbebroken appears to have been registered as UDID 1919311 and we're into the upper 60s now. --Lord K 04:06, 24 May 2011 (BST)

I've seen duplicate names before when someone hit the account creation script a second time with the same name before it was done creating the first account. Since login is by account name, only 1 will spawn & be playable. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾ 04:47, 24 May 2011 (BST)
That can happen, but the names in question were only similar, not entirely duplicate. The more time goes on the more I wonder if they're unrelated, but if you're interested I can provide details. --Lord K 05:16, 24 May 2011 (BST)
