Feral Movement

I'm glad you like the idea of the Feral Movement! Your point about the group tag is well taken, but I think that it definitely adds something to the potential for feral coordination. Just being able to scent death and find hordemates is great, to say nothing of familiar groans. Early on I debated whether to make the tag "Feral Movement" or just "Feral," but I settled on "Feral Movement" because I wanted something that would strike fear in the hearts of harmanz the way "Ridleybank Resistance Front" or "Feral Undead" does, and just plain "Feral" doesn't do it.

I'm about ready to add the Feral Movement to the main wikispace, and then I'll probably submit it to be considered for guide status. Is there anything about it that's unclear or could afford to be explained better? - DevOhm 04:21, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

You know it's funny, I was part of X:00 right at the beginning when Swiers started it up, and I'll admit, at the time I thought it was a great idea. Now though, I don't think it's that useful over all. It's not really a non-meta system – there's a lot of reading that has to be done before it can be used effectively. Even though I made a big fancy article for the Feral Movement, I've been able to recruit multiple members without ever linking to the article in-game. X:00 for me is mainly an interesting bit of history, but not something that I could see working out in a big way. - DevOhm 19:32, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
Upon further consideration, I've added an X:00 section to the page. I might actually try and use the tactic myself in the next couple days, to see how it pans out. I'm moving it to the main wikispace now. I've sat with it long enough, and I think it's finally ready. - DevOhm 23:19, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Re: NSU

I think he is mainly training that zerg army of his atm. Just staying in the Krinks area would be of massive help. Somehow the conflict has attracted the attention of the Nazi Party of Malton, who have started PKing in Krinks as well. --zyckde 12:39, 1 April 2010 (BST)

hehe, that's pretty funny. Well, just add http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=1671228 to your contact list, and let me know if you see 'm ;-)
I'm not sure where they are just now. The use guerilla tactics, so I'm using counter-guerilla tactics.--Fenian 17:34, 1 April 2010 (BST)
Rumour has it that there is a gnatsi training camp in shuttlebank. --zyckde 09:04, 2 April 2010 (BST)

Account

Hello, can you provide me a link to your account? --Cornholioo 16:12, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

I have various accounts. As far as those go that might come for you... It are only my two sole Feral Undead alts. They aren't too hard to find out, given you now know the group and that I go by the same handle in everything UD-related. So, I don't feel like serving them on the silver plate. Isn't honestly worth the research either, as unlike PKers, there's little one can pro-actively do about zambahs. --Spiderzed 18:14, 1 April 2010 (BST)
Ah, behold! The last shock before the death of this dirty Jew; before the Germanic Long Arm finishes him! In a final attempt to save himself of the Aryan man, he doesn't give me his account. Fear has become master of your soul. I have to do with you.
If you plan to goad me with your hate speech, that's not going to work. Use that cauliflower between your ears instead. I've already given away enough hints that any 3-year-old armed with Google could find out who my FU's are. (Granted, that might be a level of smarts unreachable by the average neonazi, especially if he's just a Beutedeutscher and thus racially carved out to serve his pure-blooded masters...) --Spiderzed 19:43, 1 April 2010 (BST)
Its nice to meet someone else who enjoys zombies with orange clothing. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:02, 1 April 2010 (BST)

Thank you for the heads up

Spiderzed,

Thank you for the heads up about my talk page posts. I have since corrected the issue. The fact that I am planning on retaking Colglough is no secret as it is part of my character concept and mentioned in game in english and zamgrh, though you were right about the forum info. I must say that you ferrals are a decent lot. When my building was still standing, I had feral visitors in human form from time to time and, with the exception of the odd call of MAH ZAMBAH BRAZARZ GANNA ZMAZH ZA HARMANZ AN BARG AHN ZA!R BRA!NZ!they always behaved in a most civil way. Feel free to stop by Colglough once renovations are complete whenever you wish.

Whittenside Edit

I like the edit you have posted to the Whittenside page. I preserved mine for later use. Do you mind if I use portions of yours for the zombie side of the Whittenside tourism guide that I am puting together?--Albert Schwan Albert Schwan  21:11, 10 April 2010 (BST)

Reply to your post in character and out

(meta-discourse warning: the following communication is out of character and provided for clarification and to provide context to future discourse) Regarding your comment on my talk page, first let me clarify that I do not frequent the forums because I doubt that an agreement between Albert’s group and the ferals can be reached. To clarify, Albert, as a character concept, is intentionally delusional and overly sanguine towards zombies. This is because I play this game for a different reason than many others. I realize that there is no strategic value in such an alliance but neither is there a way to ultimately win this game negating for me the idea of absolute strategy. I realize that for many ferals, victory is defined in less absolute terms making this a game about the strategic possession and maintenance of resources. For others, it is defined by the amount of destruction and death hey can bring during their career. For me it is about exploring character development in an interactive environment. Communications on this wiki, which he calls the great inter-Malton database,are to be considered in character unless otherwise specified. This is the reason that my Alt in Dulston is not mentioned on his account at all. My name is not Albert, my goals are not his; therefore, I will now let him speak. (end meta-discourse)


I see no reason that we cannot find a way to coexist. While there is no strategic advantage to peaceful relations with my group, and while I realize the relative size of the feral movement, I would argue that there is more to our fair city than strategy. My goal is and has always been the improvement of life/unlife in Malton. For this reason, I have created products to aid and entertain zombies and harmanz alike. The newest of them, zambgrh sgabbah (zombie Scrabble), even gives zombies a chance to practice their verbal skills and survivors something to do while waiting for a revive: available from Colglough labs as soon as we can hold the building long enough to design it. It is these products and the maintenance of a safe meeting spot for inter-cultural discourse that I bring to the table.


As to prior claim on geography, Necrotech occupied this building before the outbreak and my research is closer in spirit to theirs than barg!ng bra!nz. It is clear then that historic claim is relative. Again, should I manage to retake the building you and all of your group are welcome to visit, accord or no, to discuss this matter further.


Yours in science,

:P

Saw this. Did this. Tongue :P Brofist? Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 15:18, 16 April 2010 (BST)

I'm not a local survivor player

And hence I'm really not the right person to ask. :/ --Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 20:18, 16 April 2010 (BST)

Whittenside edit

You were right to follow up. Your first post did go unnoticed in the hustle and bustle that has been my talk page as of late. I viewed your edit and, while part of me is for the idea of changing the description between the two as the fort changes hands, I think that the critics who have commented on both of our edits would be happier if the edit were more evenly two sided. Accordingly, I am working on a post that is about the continuing battle over the fort rather than the fort itself using elements of both our previous attempts combined with a new graphic. Once I complete it I will send you a link and find out what you think.

--Albert Schwan Albert Schwan  03:53, 17 April 2010 (BST)

Just finished. This is a hybrid of our posts and I think will acomplish the goal even if it is a bit long. I removed the bit about the Spring Picnic as I feel this is a big enough event to warrent its own separate entry. Let me know what you think.
--Albert Schwan Albert Schwan  05:06, 17 April 2010 (BST)
In reference to the points you mentioned, in one I have acquiesced, one I wish to defend, and the other one bears more discussion.
The Image: If you like I can change the image but first I would justify its current state. I chose the patch because that group claims heavy involvement in the struggle for the fort going back to mid 2007. The patch itself is a derivation of the UDCC patch specialized for fort Perryn in recognition of the two older groups combining. It also looks pretty good. Since I was not in the suburb in 2006 when your group renamed the fort or in 2007 when they say they took it back and dedicated themselves to its defense, I can attest to neither claim but I know that both groups are very active now and tend to take them at their word. If there is information with which I am not furnished, let me know and I can easily readjust my preconceptions. As it stands, I am not opposed to removing the or changing the graphic. I like the yin yang as the post is about the unending struggle but If it would be easier, I can replace the group logos with stylized versions of the words “Fort Perryn” and “Fort Feral”
The contesting group list: In the name of simplicity, I removed the historic and newly arrived groups in favor of those who have been and continue to be a factor. The paragraph still mentions the FPDF as we can figure out what to do with this when we resolve the previous issue.
The Spring Picnic: I think you misunderstand my intent as regards the Spring Picnic. I fully realize the impact of this event as I have been witness to it once already and failed to live through the experience. I agree wholeheartedly that it belongs on the suburb page. I do, however, think that it is too large an event to be contained in the entry for the fort and suggest rather that it have its own mention on the suburb page as it changes the face of the whole suburb.
please let me know what you think,
--Albert Schwan Albert Schwan  20:51, 17 April 2010 (BST)
