::Back in the day, harman players were routinely laughed and bullied off the Wiki, which is a tremendous tool. WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M A TREMENDOUS TOOL? I'm sure that's not the way it's been the entire time... has it? Zombie players carry around broken dollies, gangbang grandma, all this cutesy-poo "I'm an undead!" stuff, but ANY semblance of character dev by harman players was almost immediately Trenchcoating, deserving of griefing, PKing, and harrassment on the wiki, etc. Honestly, the PKers and Zombie players got an early hold on the resource and its power positions, and the game suffered for it.

:::More talking - I got the lead out and made a big difference. Everything I attempted, however, was shat on by the griefers, PKers, and zeds.

=Immediate Stuff on [[User:Rosslessness/Persons Of Note|Persons of Note]]=

'''Greetings dear wiki friend. Simply put this is my attempt at creating a who's who of Urban Dead, and as such I'm looking for 20 or 30 '''characters''' who have had a lasting impact on UD. '''

The page itself is protected, but feel free to add nominations below. 

Other than that, I'll add stuff as people convince me. Userspace and all that.

==Suggested format for Entries==

<nowiki>==Ron Burgundy==

[[File:RonDrag.jpg|right|thumb|Ron Burgundy ]]


Ron Burgundy ([http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=26370 profile link]) was the leader of the [[Channel 4 News Team]]. He helped lead them into glorious battle on numerous occasions, including the infamous [[Battle of the Bear Pit]] and [[Battle of Blackmore]].

Ron participated in the [[First Siege of Caiger Mall]], and indeed almost every historical event prior to his retirement in 2008.

His love of [[Suggestion:20071110_Pac_Man_in_Malton!|PacMan]] is well recorded, as well as scotch. Legend suggests his final resting place is somewhere in [[Ackland Mall]]



[[User:Ron Burgundy|This link]] should tell you more about Ron.</nowiki>

==Bump==
There's talk happening over at [[Category talk:Historical Groups#TX]]. See list there for ideas. Or, ya know just continue discussing it here. ~[[Image:Vsig.png|link=User:Vapor]] <sub>18:26, 8 July 2012 (UTC)</sub>

== Qualifications? ==

Just wondering what would qualify a person to be noted here? :) [[User:Peralta|-- Johnny Twotoes]] 22:37, 10 July 2012 (BST)
:suggestions, really. Its not a hard and fast list. --[[User:Rosslessness|Ross]]<sup>[[User:Rosslessness/Battle of Tebbett|less]]</sup>[[User:Rosslessness|ness]]  22:48, 10 July 2012 (BST)

== PKers / Bounty Hunters ==

Any thoughts on entries for that?<br>As a general thing, game mechanics make it so that only survivors and zombies really have an impact on a suburb, while the contributions of PKers and BHers are small and short-lived (cheap revives, no AP draining by meatshielding/ruining etc.) Still, "the third side" is a popular and distinctive feature of UD, so it should have at least a couple of token entries. Sirens could be a good pick (founder of Red Rum, the biggest and most important PKer group of long term), as could be one of the founders of the Philosophe Knights (who have definitively put their very own spin on the whole PKing business, and have been doing that for a long time now). As for BHers, no real idea for singling anyone out. --'''<span style="font-family:monospace; background-color:#222222">[[User:Spiderzed|<span style="color:Lime"> Spiderzed</span>]][[User talk:Spiderzed|<span style="color:Lime">█ </span>]]</span>''' 19:05, 11 July 2012 (BST)

::Sirens and Karloth would be good examples of noteworthy pkers. Particularly that are known around the rest of the game. Sirens is less notable for a number of reasons related to meta-drama and relative quietness for years. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 21:15, 11 July 2012 (BST)

::Blanemcc is a PKer. It's a fact. Some dudes sprayed it all over Malton that one time.

:::I wouldn't put Eugenie or Vandr on there. As far as PKers go, I'd stick with Sirens, Karloth and Kyle.

== I would imagine ==
...if you are doing just 30 you will need to be conservative but I would think that Jensonson and Bullgod should make the cut. On the more debatable side, I might suggest Josh Clark and Leon Silverblood. Josh's merits were discussed by many in the recent group vote. Leon would be more controversial. He has a lot of detractors, but like him or not, he has been around for a long time and had his fingers in a lot of pies. He is a case of someone who is more known in game than on the wiki I think. DJ talent might also fit for notoriety in his field as would Hibernaculum. --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Thursday, 12 July 2012</sub>
:Josh Clark and Bullgod, yes. Jensonson, maybe. The others, nope.  Is there something you can point me to that would explain their inclusion? --[[Image:Kirsty_Cotton_Header.png|60px|Open the Box|link=User:Kirsty_cotton]] <sub>[[Organization_XIII|<span style="color: grey">Org XIII</span>]]</sub> <sup>[[User:Kirsty_cotton/alts|<span style="color: blue">Alts</span>]]</sup> 04:11, 12 July 2012 (BST)
::Never heard of any of them other than Bullgod, who certainly deserves a place. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 09:24, 12 July 2012 (BST)
::Rationale for these is similar to that provided for Duke D'oeuvre below. If they are persons of note, I would think it would be more useful if they were still active. Otherwise they are points of historical reference rather than a who's who of who you might meet. Historic accounts like Josh or Bullgod are only relevant for their legacy. Still relevant but I would say less so than those like bub who still crop up from time to time or those like Leon who have remained constantly active. As below, if this is not what this list is trying to do, let me know and I will stop.

:::Harrison is a real bot, not sure how you count that.  As for Leon, your reasoning is he has basically been mediocre but he's done it for a long time?

::::There was a second half to my statement having to do with pies. Sweet, delicious, post apocalyptic pies in which his finger was often in a leadership position. If that convoluted and slightly disturbing metaphor does not convince at least one person, then I retract the nomination as I am tired of defending it on my own. I am glad someone spoke up for Rev's alt though. I had some idea of some of those points but did not have the details so I figured I would leave them to the more qualified to mention. Perhaps similar will happen with Leon. --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Wednesday, 18 July 2012</sub>

::Alright. How can you have a list of Pkers debated by a bunch of survivor types (with weak Pker alts) and wiki drones (with the exception of Mr. Schwan)? Wan Yao? Kirsty who? Fucking please. I have yet to see Headless Gunner mentioned...or UDW...or DT...or even Tooth Decay. All I see are a bunch of people outside the Pker community proper who haven't done squat flapping their gums. As is always the case on this wiki which is why I don't say much on here anymore. Those people I mentioned above were responsible or had a large hand in some of the biggest, most successfull Pker events this game has seen and were the head of some of the best Pker groups that have been around. Maybe you haven't heard of them because they have been inactive for a long time...do some research instead of just towing the line. If you're going to do a proper list, go look into the history and see what happened. The people above don't need the approval of any of you people. They have the respect of the Pker community...or did before that community, like every other one other than the wiki circle jerk, moved on. --[[User:Hibernaculum|Hibernaculum]] 13:28, 24 September 2012 (BST)

== Katthew ==

I nominate [http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=116418 Katthew]. Nobody can really deny how ingrained in UD that SA has been. From [[The Many]] to [[DARIS]], [[UTF]], [[Council of Leaders (new)|New CoL]], [[The Dead]], [[The Malton Globetrotters]] and [[The Dead 2.0]], Katthew was there. Katthew was all up in Desenz and maintaind the PK list for a long while. I beleive she even helped ressurect the board after it went down and eventually moved to Resenz. I keep expecting her to spring out of the dark shadows one day to make us all her bitch.

== Duke D'oeuvre ==

Missed him on my last post --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Thursday, 12 July 2012</sub>
:Much as I love this man, how does he fit on this list? --{{User:DT/Signature}} 05:42, 13 July 2012 (BST)

:::I offered him here because Ross is putting together a list of persons of note. The "did he change the game" dynamic seems to be a holdover from the discussion on historical status. Duke D'oeuvre has been around, racked up a respectable kill total, been associated with most of the more notable PKer groups(including the PK and Redrum), but most importantly, his notoriety comes from his consistent personality and character design. Also, he is still active which makes it more worth while to current players to include him on a list like this. If UD is treated as an RPG rather than a strategy game, Duke D'oeuvre is one of the interesting characters who seem to be an active, notably unique, and semi-permanent feature of it's landscape. Were I a new player, I would want to know if I was standing in a room with him. If that is not the type of candidates this list is seeking to recognize, if it intends to utilize in whole or part the mired qualifications of historic status, or if it intends to focus on strategy rather than role-playing, then merely inform me now and save yourself many similarly arrived at suggestions in days to come. --{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Saturday, 14 July 2012</sub>
::::That's it? I somehow doubt that this measures up to Jorm, Bullgod, and Burgundy in terms of 'notable'. --{{User:DT/Signature}} 01:27, 14 July 2012 (BST) EDIT: Much less the 'Lasting Impact on the Game' that Rosslessness is looking for. --{{User:DT/Signature}} 01:34, 14 July 2012 (BST)
:::::Does every entry need to? Also, in some ways, personalities like this are more notable in that they are still around to notice. A who's who is just another history book if all the entries correspond to people who are already dead. It certainly does not let you know who to look out for for one reason or another.--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Saturday, 14 July 2012</sub>
::::::'''Nope''' --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 01:45, 14 July 2012 (BST)
:::::::I might be wrong, but Rev in general seems to have made a decent meta-game impact, but I'm not sure that could be tied to a single alt.  Meta-celebrity, yup.  But not what this list is...I think.--[[Image:Kirsty_Cotton_Header.png|60px|Open the Box|link=User:Kirsty_cotton]] <sub>[[Organization_XIII|<span style="color: grey">Org XIII</span>]]</sub> <sup>[[User:Kirsty_cotton/alts|<span style="color: blue">Alts</span>]]</sup> 21:09, 15 July 2012 (BST)
::::::::Duke is his PKing alt. He led Red Rum with it, has led one of the most exclusive PKing groups (LCGHC) with it, I believe led the PKA with it, and has been a Philosophe Knight with it (at a leadership rank, no less), '''all at the same time'''. To say the least, most of the things he's famous for are directly tied to that alt. His other alts are admittedly well-known in their own circles (he leads a MOB strike team, led a mass combat revive with an often-quoted catchphrase at Blackmore 4(04), and gets around in BHer circles quite a bit), but this one is easily responsible for the vast majority of his notoriety since it's been the channel through which most of the big things he's done have occurred. The majority of the big PKing happenings in recent years can be tied directly to this character in one way or another. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 22:00, 15 July 2012 (BST)
:::::::::"The majority of the big PKing happenings in recent years can be tied directly to this character in one way or another." They can? I seem to recall him forgetting to invite Red Rum to many, and being all...well...loveably Revenant about others. By which I mean, too lazy/forgetful/inactive to show up. Duke is definitely in more groups than ought to be possible, and has more leadership positions than I knew was possible for one man to hold - including being the former Vice Mayor of Malton - but like a lot of people in recent years, he has ''yet'' to make a more permanent mark on Malton. --{{User:DT/Signature}} 04:40, 18 July 2012 (BST)
::::::::::Again though, if indelibility is your sole criteria be prepared to have the list consist of bub, Someone named Holly of whom I have never heard but who holds acct #13, one of the first people to organize zombies, one of the first people to organize survivors, one of the first people to PK, the first bounty hunter, the person who figured out how to make a pinata (always wondered who this was by the way), and no one else. Unless this is the list you want, you must consider more than changing the way the game is played. You must look at notability as leaving a lasting mark on those around you. Memorability is possibly the strongest and possibly the only criteria by which to judge this. I ask myself, "which names do I associate with UD". By this criteria, all of the people I mentioned hold at least enough sway to be considered in that WanYao seems to be one of only a very few people who have not heard of them. Under those same criteria though, Amazing may not have a strong case for his admission because he cited mostly wiki events but Aichon made a decent enough case on his behalf to not reject him out of hand. I ask again, what '''exactly''' do you want this list to do? Until we come to a common consensus on this, we are doomed to the same circular masturbatory practices that have made so many so unhappy with the way historical group voting is done. "had a lasting impact on UD" was never going to cut it and this is the logical result.--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Wednesday, 18 July 2012</sub>
:::::::::::Cease bringing logic into this at once! :P {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 07:09, 18 July 2012 (BST)
::::::::::::First: I'll thank you to stop trying to put words in my mouth, especially with such bizarre bullshit. Second: Common Consensus? This list is on Rosslessness' page. His rules. He says ''"Lasting Effect"'', so that's what goes on this list. I don't see the lasting effect that the Duke has had on this game yet. Give it a year of two, maybe. Personally, I think Revenant's zombie alt has had more of a lasting effect than his PKer. Reputation and metagame achievement does not 'notable' make. Swiers' work, which started all the various 'Witnesses' that are commonly used instead screenshots, makes him notable in the metagame, but not terribly important ingame. ''I've'' had enough of an effect on the PKA that I won a 'Services to the Industry' award by a landslide in the 2009 MMA's, but ''Ingame'' I'm just some no-name Scout for a PK group. This list is for people who, should you meet them ingame, have an effect on the players and environment around them because of how they've used their AP and influence.
::::::::::::You want a list that has a different Criteria so you can stuff more people in? ''Make it on your own page''. It ''is'' that simple.--{{User:DT/Signature}} 15:49, 18 July 2012 (BST)
:::::::::::::I will offer one final stab at this before bowing out of this discussion entirely, which I am sure will come as a great relief for many. DTs most recent post has shown me that this conversation is going nowhere. When someone generally renowned for his analytical, level-headed demeanor becomes defensive and uses the term "Bizarre bullshit" we are clearly losing ground. My objection was not designed to put words in anyone's mouth but to sum up what I saw to be the crux of the disagreement working itself out on this page. My objection is not centered around wanting a different set of criteria; it is centered around wanting criteria in the first place. "had a lasting impact on UD" is not a criteria: or if it is, it is woefully inadequate to base a list around. Each of us is filling in the definition with our own assumptions. For me, fame and notoriety are a big part of how one is remembered and therefore leaves a mark, for others it is the lasting strategic impact on how the game is played, still for others it is inseparable from the meta-game. After DT abandoned the "changing the game" principle in the most recent post, I am not sure what criteria he is using. My point is that it is different from mine and that used by others. By my criteria, our esteemed vice mayor is worthy of this list, by DT's he is not. Since Ross had not defined his terms, I can only assume that he is still considering criteria of his own. Accordingly, my concept of what makes one notable has no more or less claim to truth than that held by anyone else. Failure to recognize this is behind this mess: a mess that could be lessened with a useful and agreed upon rubric.  True, this is Ross's page but through use of such ill-defined terms, he has merely invited the same argument to his page that existed elsewhere. I was attempting to point this out. Does he have to fix it? No, of course not. If he does not, he is doomed to this bickering. Having said that, I refer you once more to my nominations and leave this list to its fate. May it eventually sort itself out and fare well.--{{User:A.schwan/sig}} <sub>Wednesday, 18 July 2012</sub>
::::::::::::::Schwan's got a point. Either the criteria stays the same, in which case it's open to interpretation, or it gets narrowed down a bit. Ross can't do it all. There's certainly nothing crazy about nominating Duke. Hell, even Dave Grohl makes some sense. --{{User:Paddy Dignam/sig}} 00:54, 19 July 2012 (BST)
:::::::::::::::I love it when people make specious arguments and then book it before they are called to defend their words. But the knowledge that I wont be receiving a response has never stopped me from typing before, and I shan't begin now.
:::::::::::::::First, the "Bizzare Bullshit": In response to me asking Aichon a question, you represented (and ''continue'' to represent) my arguments as "Notable = First Person to Do Something". You've tried telling me that by my standards Bub and Survivor #1 would be the only people on the list. Which is strange considering that every time I compared the Duke to ''anyone'' else, it was to '''Jorm''', '''Burgundy''', and '''Bullgod''' - not First in anything. Many hordes existed before Bullgod and Jorm, and many survivor groups existed before Burgundy. What makes these three people stand out is the massive impact they had and continue to have on the game. Once again, Rosslessness' ''"Lasting Effect"''. Not first guy to stick a needle into a Hostile zombie. Not Urban Dead Celebrity. Not someone who burnt himself out leading a bunch of different groups to various levels of success. 
:::::::::::::::My standards require this: A Lasting Impact on the Game. I have never wavered from this argument, despite your apparent belief that I'm abandoning my arguments left and right. 
:::::::::::::::To be honest, I'm fairly sure you're just getting bitter that someone disagrees with you and have decided to troll me with straw man arguments, but I'll be damned if that stops me from responding. Secondly, as to your whole "Let's change the page's thrice-stated criteria" thing. Why? Because your nominees don't actually fit the page? I said, waaaay up, under the heading [[User_talk:Rosslessness/Persons_Of_Note#PKers_.2F_Bounty_Hunters|PKers/Bounty Hunters]] that there are a tiny number of people who fit the Notable criteria simply because ''not many people have changed the game''. I know this disqualifies a lot of people you look up to as venerable Veterans of UD, but quite honestly, it's probably for the better. They may have changed ''your'' game, maybe, but the vast majority of people either haven't heard of them or don't care about them.
:::::::::::::::Once again, I really don't think Duke D'oeuvre deserves a place on this page yet. I know he has plans to shake Malton up in the future, and maybe those will give him more than just name recognition to be remembered by. Regards, --{{User:DT/Signature}} 03:05, 19 July 2012 (BST)
::::::::::::::::It sounds like you're the one who's bitter, Tom. You don't think Duke deserves a place on this page, and someone else has the audacity to disagree with you (cogently, I might add). "The vast majority of people" who play this game haven't heard of anyone on this list, including Jorm, Burgundy, and Bullgod. It takes a special kind of person to play a text-based zombie game for 6 or 7 years. --{{User:Paddy Dignam/sig}} 17:58, 19 July 2012 (BST)
:::::::::::::::::People always disagree with me, Paddy, as you well know. I love disagreements because they allow me to write walls of text. I don't know why I'd be bitter about it.
:::::::::::::::::What ''annoys'' me is the blatant misrepresentation of my argument as "hurr durr Duke wasn't the first PKer therefore he can get fucked". And I agree, we are both definitely special people. --{{User:DT/Signature}} 04:22, 20 July 2012 (BST)

Flattering as watching this discussion has been, I do have to step in to correct a few misstatements and misconceptions.
:'''1)''' As fas as “lasting effect” goes, well, to put it plainly, most of the lasting effect I had had has not been in plain sight — which, as anyone who claims to know me ''at all'' should know, is very much my ''modus operandi''. This being said, I am probably in the unique position of arguing '''against''' my own inclusion on this list — which I can do very easily by simply not incriminating myself, a lesson others should have learned a long time ago.
:'''B)''' The habit of others to confuse me with this “Revenant” fellow – from what I understand, some sort of priest of one of these “zombie” religions that seem so popular these last few years – has been, while utterly inexplicable to, of no small use in concealing my deeds and intents until it was too late for those concerned, and frequently even afterwards.
:'''iii)''' Lastly, Doctor, “''former'' Vice Mayor of Malton”? ''Former'', '''nothing'''. I am the '''current''' Vice Mayor of Malton, as well as the Acting Mayor, the Head of Government, and the man who is going to bring the city burning down around your ears.
Toodles!

Also, being an integral part of early wiki history, including creating the numbered vote system (no, really) and probably a butt-load of other crap. Amazing was PKing and Griefing BEFORE it was cool. Back when you had to walk up hill in the snow just to register a the name of your enemy with a I in place of the l and smear their name throughout Malton.

As much as everyone loves to hate on Amazing, I was actually thinking of putting him forward. He was indeed the leader of a historical group, he played a role in the early sieges of Caiger Mall, and he did point out a few other in-game ideas that he had a hand in. His claim isn't entirely without merit, so it shouldn't be dismissed outright, regardless of his wiki shenanigans. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 04:03, 15 July 2012 (BST)

::I don't see these guidelines being applied to other entries. Most notably the eternally loved Ron Burgundy.

:::[[User:Sgt_Whiskey_Swiper|Read]]. Back in the day this was a common name to come across, in addition to Zod, Cowboy Up, Sonny, and Ron(and his arch-rival).

== Benigno ==
I nominate me!  I organized the SSZ project in 2007 and it became one of the strongest survivor strongholds in UD history - and spanned 5 suburbs.  I did a lot of work in the background but I made barricade plans for all our suburbs, got most of the groups all coordinating together...I'm not sure what else to say really.  I know it was a big part of early UD history.  --{{User:Benigno/sig}} 01:30, 8 September 2012 (BST)

::I have a very different set of memories about the SSZ considering it encroached on the territory I was responsible for defending at that time. It was a lot of things but it wasn't influential, the remnants of [[AMS]], the Santlerville survivor groups, and the two [[CDF]]s were the actual players for most of the SSZ's history and later on even smaller non-mall groups like [[THEM]] and 404 had significantly more impact than the SSZ ever did. The [[DHPD]] even had more influence and they didn't even have malls in their equivalently sized area outside of the occasional Caiger visit. --<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev#Buildings_Update_Danger_Maps|maps 2.0?!]]</font></sup></small> 03:46, 8 September 2012 (BST)

I don't really care if I get mentioned or not quite honestly as there were many more well-known people back then than me.

::Ah, my first group leader… good times, man, good times. I'd say you were certainly notable among Central Malton survivors at the time, but ultimately the SSZ concept didn't stand the test of time, largely due to lack of NTs.

TDD were also pretty well known back in the day, not that I can recall if he was publicly the face of that group though I'm pretty sure it was his group.
