Hello. Apperantly you missed the large red box at the top of the page that stated that we will be clearing the suggestions page soon to make way for a new system. I've removed your suggestion from the page for the time being. Here is your suggestion, please keep it here until the new system is implemented. --Raelin 20:07, 30 Oct 2005 (GMT)

  • Trap Building - Players can build traps that are activated when a zombie enters a building. The trap would affect the next x zombies to enter the building, x being the strength of the trap. Traps could have different effects, such as damage, being knocked out of the building again, XP loss, AP loss, less accuracy for attacks against humans in the same building, etc. Zombies with Memories of Life have a chance of detecting and bypassing the trap without activating it.

Agh... sorry about that, the browser had the page cached without the red box for some reason and I wasn't seeing it. Ctrl+F5 is making it show up for me now, sorry about this. --Arcibi 30 Oct

Ah, apoligies then if I sounded a bit snarky. --Raelin 20:12, 30 Oct 2005 (GMT)
No problem, no offense taken. --Arcibi 20:16, 30 Oct 2005 (GMT)

I think wiki formatting includes some sort of math tags that'll make formulas display correctly. Not positive tho.--'STER 23:20, 7 Nov 2005 (GMT)

If you knock a suggestion and say something like "It would make life harder" explain HOW it would do so. As it stands your comment to my suggestion gave me the impression that you have a heavy survivor bias. --Grim s 17:26, 5 Dec 2005 (GMT)

  • If Scent Trail works as you described it, then I was mistaken, and I'll remove my vote. And yeah, I do have a survivor bias, but it's probably because I was at the fall of Giddings and not the defense of Caiger. --Arcibi 17:36, 5 Dec 2005 (GMT)

We won at those locatione because the majority of people were either taken by suprise or they RAN AWAY. If they stood and fought theyw ould have won. There are serious balance issues in this game. Unlike you, i have been at every single one of those sieges except the forts, however the same story happened there. Also, forts are shitty places to defend because you cant get reinforcements. You are looking at history rather than at the current situation. Now with mobile phones humans can call in ludicrous amounts of reinforcements. --Grim s 16:00, 8 Dec 2005 (GMT)

  • Why would anyone use an AP on the relatively unreliable phones when we have the internet? People organizing on the internet was what led to the successful defense of Caiger, not the use of phones. As for calling in reinforcements, all that has to happen for a siege to begin or for zombie reinforcements to arrive is for Petro or another well-known zombie player to say so on the boards, and nearly every zombie player in the game shows up. --Arcibi 02:34, 9 Dec 2005 (GMT)

Nah, its somewhat more lethal looking. AllStarZ 23:18, 12 Dec 2005 (GMT)


Here is my response to your reason for killvoting the Anti greifer barricade tweak:

Arcibi, the change has absolutely no effect on existing inhabited buildings. If there is another human present in the building then its normal barricade mechanics. This only affects buildings where the barricader is the only human in the building. As such, i can only conclude that you did not, in fact, read the suggestion. Your entire reasoning behind killing this is about something this suggestion doesnt affect.

In future i would appreciate it if you would not only read the suggestions, but take the time to understand what is being said. --Grim s 03:58, 15 March 2006 (GMT)

  • Oh God, I feel so dumb right now. It's like my brain was refusing to read that paragraph, I swear I didn't even see it until I replied to what John Ember said and thought "oh shit, if they don't already hate me for being dumb now..." Anyway, I struck my killvote, so here's hoping everything's right again. I'm still not a big fan of the suggestion, since I think AP is the only area a survivor really can hurt a zombie, but yeah, I struck my killvote. --Arcibi 04:21, 15 March 2006 (GMT)
