Suggestion type
Pure Flavor Improvement.

Suggestion scope
Players OUTSIDE buildings with 10-24, and 25+ Zombies outside.

Suggestion description

Edit: I think I'm happier with the old version than this new version. Mods, you can delete this one. (Sorry for this inconvenience)

Okay, to settle with the few, but nevertheless excessively vocal and persistent opponents who absolutely hated my initial suggestion, here's an additional something that I hope will satisfy both sides: It retains the primary Flavor aspect while bearing no trace of any X-rayishness.

Players (zombies and humans) OUTSIDE unruined buildings with 10 to 24 zombies outside will get this description:

"A group of (10-24) zombies has gathered outside. A persistent chorus of deathly moaning can be heard."

Players outside BARRICADED unruined buildings with 25+ zombies will get this description:

"A horde of (25+) zombies has amassed in front of the building. They press themselves against the entrance, frantically pounding on the windows and clawing at the doors. An unending chorus of deathly moaning can be heard."

Players outside Non-Barricaded, unruined buildings with 25+ zombies outside will get this description:

"A horde of (25+) zombies has amassed in front of the building. They press themselves against one another in a mad frenzy to enter. An unending chorus of hungry groaning."

Also a zombie who enters a building under the above conditions should get this message:

"Pushing your way through the crowd of fellow undead, you enter the building" (note: if the doors are secured, there should be some added description about fumbling at the door knob or whatnot before entering).

Players outside RUINED buildings with 10+ zombies should get this message:

"A group of (10+) zombies has gathered outside. They mill about aimlessly, frequently bumping into one another. A soft yet deathly moan can be heard occasionally."

Keep Votes

1. Keep - Author Vote. -- Mordac the Refuser 19:01, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
2. Keepish - I would have voted keep on the older one. Seriously you'd have to be a moron not to know there are 50+ zombies outside the door, anyway. (God damn, I keep forgetting to sign my votes...)--LumiReaver 19:23, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
3. Keep Again, mmm flavor...--Lachryma^☭ 19:34, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
4. Keep - Was fine last time, it's fine this time. The idea is there.--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 19:39, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
5. Keep - Eh, I liked the old one, even as a zed. --Druuuuu ^OcTRR 19:44, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Kill Votes

1. Kill - Siege Descriptions NOW 100% USELESS. The other one much is better. --Midianian|T|T:S|C:RCS| 20:43, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Spam - you're winning the vote strongly in the previous version, and for good reason. It's also got vocal enough notes on board from Spammers and Killers for [He Who Shalt Not Be Named] to take notice of their concerns. This version is horribly complicated and assumes that every building is a large box with a single door - which, flavour-wise, I've always hated. There's no point in telling anyone outside a building how many zombies are there - we can read that already. I hates this - tis not needed or even any good as a standalone suggestion. --Funt Solo ^QT 19:50, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
2. I am on a voting spree, but to make this vote valid, I'm in agreement with those above, in this case, the only one above... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 20:54, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
