Thats not what the editing history says. And poodle, give me 24 hours, i'm in negotiations with an incredibly sexy women. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 23:50, 2 August 2010 (BST)
Bullshit!! There is no woman!!!! I'm curious to know why the answers can't come to me now? - Poodle of Doom 23:52, 2 August 2010 (BST)
Put it like this. I may be able to form a supergroup with some amazing members. As for the woman in question, she puts the "o", in "DSS satellite phone". --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 23:54, 2 August 2010 (BST)
Oh, by the way, Dealt in Lead you're a crat, and Pixel Pandemic your an op. I assume these were the ones you referred to?--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 00:01, 3 August 2010 (BST)
yip, really must clear the adbots of the dealt in lead one. But as only 20 people in the world are playing it....... --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 00:09, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Probably because it's darn near impossible to create an account...--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 00:21, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Persuade me to play this game. I'm currently only down to two active games. Nothing to be done! 00:22, 3 August 2010 (BST)
I'm trying to play, but I can't make an account!Grr! Argh! *shaking fist*--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 00:25, 3 August 2010 (BST)

Times are updated for the event Ross,... let me know if your interested. - Poodle of Doom 00:05, 3 August 2010 (BST)

Invitations

Due to your interest in our event, as well as the help you have provided to us in the creation of it's page,... I'd like to extend to you the opportunity to invite five groups of individuals. The invitation can be found here. - Poodle of Doom 01:11, 3 August 2010 (BST)

Thinking of making a Manhunt All-Stars Ross, you in? -- 10:04, 3 August 2010 (BST)
If you don't know already, it's a temporary group to bypass the group only rule in PoD's Manhunt event. ;) --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 10:31, 3 August 2010 (BST)
It will include the best of the best, plus me for guidance and axe hack for comic relief ;D -- 10:33, 3 August 2010 (BST)
Just let the horrible PKer do his work! ;D --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 10:35, 3 August 2010 (BST)

Promotions

Now the 2 weeks are up, I'm hoping you will read everything placed at A/PM (if you didn't already) and make your decision with Boxy. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 23:09, 3 August 2010 (BST)

They've already been at it. Boxy's talk is always a good place to check 24 hours before any bid ends, as you will see now.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 23:11, 3 August 2010 (BST)

The Color of This Page

It's burninating! Do not want! --VVV RPGMBCWS 01:29, 5 August 2010 (BST)

forum

I'm in the process of setting up some stuff for Manhunt All-Stars, do you know any place that might give us a sub-forum? I don't visit and UD forums unfortunately :( -- 04:49, 5 August 2010 (BST)
OBR or DSS. Probably the latter. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:43, 5 August 2010 (BST)
I just reg'd with the DSS, I might talk to someone there closer to the date. ATM all the high level Manhunter's are ready to join the AllStars sept Soph, will ask her on forums soon. -- 14:43, 5 August 2010 (BST)
I'm technically not ready until I get back in the States on Monday,but that doesn't matter. There's still a long time to go. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 14:46, 5 August 2010 (BST)
Well since soph runs the dss, you're sorted. I apologise for the pointless pm's im sending you over there. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 14:48, 5 August 2010 (BST)
OMG, that's you! :D -- 15:11, 5 August 2010 (BST)
I just reg'd as well. Someone just PM me or whatever when this thing gets set up. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 15:31, 5 August 2010 (BST)
I could check with the NMC, but I highly doubt it. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 14:33, 5 August 2010 (BST)

Trial Period

I obviouslly have the desire to be a sysop and to uphold the wiki law.
But most of the sysops think I can't handle it, or that I would be useless.
Well, What if you guys made me a mini-sysop. I could vote on vandal cases, I can't ban users though. I can delete pages on A/SD or A/D.
And if over time, you guys think I'm useless to the sysop team, then you can say sianara and demote me back to what I am now. PLEASE! This is all I want in life!(not really that bad, but I want it). So, What do you think, and what do you think the other sysops will think.-- Jerrel tlk (82nd!) (Project Unwelcome!). 21:37, 6 August 2010 (BST)

That's not how it works. You don't fit the criteria to be a sysop, and you don't have community support. This policy (which wouldn't work because of the wiki groups we have atm) would be better suited to people like Thad. He got fairly even support and fits a good amount of the criteria. You should work towards that, instead of asking for trial periods. We shouldn't have to give you the benefit of the doubt, you should compell us to support you.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 21:47, 6 August 2010 (BST)
As Yonn said, there are policies dictating how promotions work, and if Ross or boxy (or anyone else, *cough*) were to promote you without going through the proper procedures, you can bet that they'd be Misconducted and you'd be demoted almost immediately. Besides which, a promotion of the nature you specify isn't even technically possible, since when they promote people, you get everything that the rank can do, not just some parts of it. And the sysops aren't some club that decides whether to let you in or not; it's the community that decides who becomes a sysop, and the 'crats just make the final decision based off of the community. Aichon 22:17, 6 August 2010 (BST)
Technically, you (and every other user) are on a "trial-period" where you can rule in on a case. It's called the A/VB Talk Page. Put your input on a case up there, make a well worded argument, and you'll be able to show people your interest in the system (and maybe even sway a few administrative votes on the case).
Remember: Actions speak louder than words. You can express your desire to be a sysop all you want, but untill you start acting like you deserve the role, you aren't going to get it. If you're wondering how to "act the role," look into all the advice people have been giving you over the past months. ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 23:09, 6 August 2010 (BST)
Wanting it so bad, seemingly only for the sake of having it, is actually a pretty good reason not to give it to you. Go do something constructive on the wiki -- boxy talkteh rulz 23:34 6 August 2010 (BST)
Exactly, you've basically begged us to just be able to spurt shit around the drama parts and not help out in the actual wiki, when you're qualified to do neither. Good work. -- 01:19, 7 August 2010 (BST)
You see, your problem is that you don't understand politics. Asking to be a sysop is like proposing to be wed. The more you do it, the less people will want to give it to you. Forget the whole concept of you being sysop. Unless someone asks you about it, don't even mention it until someone eventually nominates you. That way, you won't let your own hubris ruin your chances like it is. Focus solely on improving the wiki like any other common person. You know how, and you've clearly been doing this, but what you've done so far just isn't enough. You need to flood the wiki with examples of your devotion to it. Force everyone to see how helpful you are, give helpful opinions even on topics that don't concern you, and make some friends. I really think you could be a sysop one day, but until you're better than every other common person, don't bother with all this sysop stuff. --VVV RPGMBCWS 00:55, 7 August 2010 (BST)
^^^^^. Linkthewindow  Talk  01:06, 7 August 2010 (BST)
Basically. Use the talk pages, to discuss what you think is right. Let us know what you level of judgement is. And everything above. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 14:39, 9 August 2010 (BST)

Sysop input requested

There's a sysop-only vote taking place, and we haven't heard from you yet. Check here. Aichon 20:23, 9 August 2010 (BST)

Question

Depends. Most companies prefer if you remain friendly, yet professional in relation to your colleagues. Maybe one day you'll have to take a decision that's in the best interest of your company, rather than it's employees. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 19:34, 11 August 2010 (BST)

This

You spelt "Einstein" wrong. Now log on and fix it so that I can find and kill you. :P --User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 13:19, 14 August 2010 (BST)

WTF is this shit? can my drunken self sign up to this late 1800's battle and join as "the man with no name" or "the good" or "clint eastwood"? Surely none of them have been taken?!?! -- 13:24, 14 August 2010 (BST)
There are only 20 players. In such a small environment, I'm an amazing PKer. It's like opposite land.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 13:25, 14 August 2010 (BST)
I got blondie, DW. WTF? wiki same format as pixelpandemic? haliman former crat? rossless name spelled backward?> i dopn't like this game wtf -- 13:28, 14 August 2010 (BST)
Dangit, you took "Blondie"! Whatever. I'm not playing now. Aichon 06:18, 15 August 2010 (BST)
I can't believe I lol'd at this! I love you Aich! Come help me build a town, and help me find out how to make money!!! -- 06:25, 15 August 2010 (BST)
LOL, well, seriously, you named off all of the other names for him I thought of off the top of my head, but I didn't see Blondie, so I figured I might go make that name, and then I see that Blondie is one of the newest characters. Definitely surprised me. Anyway, I'm not really looking for a new game to play at the moment, but definitely got a chuckle. Love that trilogy. Have it in a boxset, even. Aichon 06:48, 15 August 2010 (BST)
haha nice! yeah, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is the best movie ever imo. the perfect film. best! -- 06:50, 15 August 2010 (BST)
I just googled the whole thing. Too lazy to fix really. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:38, 15 August 2010 (BST)

Revisions and Submissions

Do you mind if I revise some of my earlier submissions and upload more additions to your Unemplementia city?

--TheBardofAwesome 10:50, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Of course. consider this permission to do whatever you want to unimplementia. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:51, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Help

I may need your help with creating a zombie page for the recent update. Go play as a zombie, and you'll see that the safehouse addition works completely different for a zombie. --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:42, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Like this and this Image:Set3.PNG Image:Set4.PNG --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:44, 16 August 2010 (BST)
Yes! I don't know how to upload screens like that myself so...--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:45, 16 August 2010 (BST)
Click the print screen button on your keyboard (above insert), and then paste in to a paint. Then you can click the upload button on the left hand side of the wiki.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 15:47, 16 August 2010 (BST)
Thanks. And edit conflict hurr--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:49, 16 August 2010 (BST)
Take a screen capture. Normally. Shift+Printscreen. (Which is above your insert key) save them in mspaint or something, than upload. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:48, 16 August 2010 (BST)
Edit conflict durr--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:49, 16 August 2010 (BST)
Create a new page to explain it? Closest I could find that matches otherwise is this Zombie_Skills/Feeding_Groan--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 15:49, 16 August 2010 (BST)

User:Rosslessness/Random Rambling/Sandbox16 Must really finish these. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:52, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Yeah, once I finish with my Suggestions system overhaul, those were next on my list to work on. Aichon 23:18, 16 August 2010 (BST)

Pointless Job

You want me to update FA? Meh, kay, I'll look into it.--Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 14:21, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Nah I got that part, next update on the 23rd. Looks like I'll be your slave for the coming weeks Tongue :P --Umbrella-White.pngThadeous OakleyUmbrella-White.png 14:26, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Its one edit a week. Some of the coding is a bit random, but its a good little test. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 14:29, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Arbies summaries

I'm up for that. Give me an army of sysop candidates and a whip.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 22:23, 17 August 2010 (BST)

(As in I'll do it).--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 22:23, 17 August 2010 (BST)
And a note on all the ones abandoned? Scanning the POV suburb ones is a nightmare. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:25, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Sounds like a plan. So, summaries are for the ones in "unsorted", right?--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 22:25, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Basically anything saying "Awaiting Summary" --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 22:26, 17 August 2010 (BST)
Right, I'll get on it.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 22:27, 17 August 2010 (BST)

Manhunt templates

Am I allowed to undelete the ones Poodle made, or will I have to "create my own".--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 10:33, 18 August 2010 (BST)

Personally. Id undelete them, steal the code, and redelete them. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:39, 18 August 2010 (BST)
On the topic, when's the manhunt marathon going to be running?--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 10:47, 18 August 2010 (BST)
User:Rosslessness/MM I'm still typing. Want to make this the opening event? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:53, 18 August 2010 (BST)
Sure. Also, I have queries about Poodle's ratio system, and how you'd deal with it. E.g. I get one kill, my entire group idles. Technically, we'd have infinity points if we weren't killed. What's the deal with that?--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 10:57, 18 August 2010 (BST)
I believe its the group ratio, not the individual. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:01, 18 August 2010 (BST)
It can still happen though. I guess we'll just hope for the best and target groups with no deaths. :D --User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 11:04, 18 August 2010 (BST)
In a month, with no deaths? Highly unlikely. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:05, 18 August 2010 (BST)
Well that would make sense, but it's a two-week contest. I'm thinking extension to a month?--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 11:09, 18 August 2010 (BST)
Two weeks is good. Always insert a rule. Most kills win, then ratio if a tie. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:15, 18 August 2010 (BST)
Sounds good.--User:Yonnua Koponen/signature2 11:18, 18 August 2010 (BST)

Resensitized comments

If you are soo certain that me posting a unbias statement in the article is wrong because i am a "zerger" then have kevin do a ip check on everyone in the group. It is clear, cut, and dry. Reviver for all 20:14, 19 August 2010 (BST)

Of camellia sinensis and Bergamot orange peel stepped in hot water for three minutes, then removed and mixed with vapour-chilled bovine lacation. The flavour is exquisite and refreshing.

Guide

Hi Ross

I liked your comment "Now believe it or not, they are among the easiest places for survivors to thrive" Which I totally agree but for myself I tend to survive in these areas without feeling the need to reclaim the whole suburb.

Pkers or hunted men use these areas to live and settle in because of their lack of human and generally zombie presence, if your in no rush you can restock through ruined buildings and take the heat off yourself slightly.

I wondered would your article consider changing its slant to include a general "life in a ghost town" theme?

C Whitty

Its hard. Because life in a ghost town is a difficult concept. Personally if I'm in an area I'm either reclaiming it, (what this guide is about), or attempting to keep it a ghost town. Your presence affects the area, otherwise your just Hiding In Plain Sight. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:12, 21 August 2010 (BST)

Perhaps your right - I will change to Abstain --C Whitty 15:15, 21 August 2010 (BST)

Ok. If you want to write about your experiences living there post them here. I can always write another one! --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:18, 21 August 2010 (BST)

Event Help

Was just coming here to leave you a message when you dropped by my talk page. Thanks for offering to help with the judging. Mostly what I need help with right now is someone to bounce ideas off of. Make sure I'm not trying to pull off something that will suck. I might need some specific help with other stuff once things start to solidify. Maybe some help with templates, redirecting and some other wiki stuff. I could probably use some IG support once the event starts, too. Much appreciated ~Vsig.png 18:59, 26 August 2010 (BST)

Your Town

So are you going to give your town to Kevan to review?
Actulley, I like it. It could be a small town close to malton that the infection spread.
Kevan could open it for 3 days, and there could be one epic battle of humans vs. zombies. Headshot kills.
That's just what I think, but i think it would be awesome if you let kevan look over it.
