'''Suggestion description'''<br />
Isn't it annoying that you only have access to a list of events that have transpired since your last turn? Personally, I've lost track of a lot of data (e.g. feeding groans, flares, conversations) when I've stood up too soon without thinking, or used a first aid kit to heal infection as my first move. I think it would be really neat if there was some kind of button you could use to access a "memory log" of all the events your character witnessed over the last 10-50 turns so you could keep track of things a little more easily. I also think this makes sense in-game, as people don't tend to forget what just happened to them as soon as they move to do something else.

'''Keep Votes'''
#'''Keep''' - Author keep. Thanks for reminding me ;-)--[[User:Pac8s|Pac8s]] 14:18, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Keep''' - As long as it's not a dupe, I'm voting Keep on this. Can't always press the back button when you log on in the middle of a zombie break-in and probably not too hard to implement. And like Rosslessness said, remember to vote on your own suggestion as an author keep. --[[User:Tselita|Tselita]] 22:48, 28 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Keep''' - "POSTDATA". 'Nuff said. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 06:54, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Keep''' - Useful. - [[User:Grant|Grant]] ([[User talk:Grant|talk]]) 07:39, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Keep''' - I find it incredibly annoying to log in the game amidst much action, but have the server fail to load the page on login, try again, and login with no information of what had happened at all.  Although I think I suggested that information simply not disappear until a new turn is made, this would do just as good a job at preventing problems like that.--[[User:Kolechovski|Kolechovski]] 20:22, 29 May 2008 (BST)

#'''keep''' [[User:Tarumigan|Tarumigan]] 06:126, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Keep''' - The ability for people to get tricky with software is no excuse for a poor interface. --[[User:Pgunn|Pgunn]] 04:05, 30 May 2008 (BST)

'''Kill Votes'''
#'''Kill''' this has been suggested before. But in the meantime, don't forget there's that back button on your browser. Dont forget to vote on your own suggestion.--{{User:Rosslessness/Sig}} 22:42, 28 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Kill''' - Back button, at least one ready GM script/firefox extension doing it, one more script being written ATM. It will only confuse others. If options above don't work for you - you may open new tabs every time you see something that you want to save for later. --{{User:Viktor Suvorov/sig}} 23:22, 28 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Kill''' - Waste of bandwidth.  Use '''Open in new tab''' or '''Duplicate tab''' or just save a copy of the page.  These methods are safe to use in the middle of a battle (even if the Back button isn't.) --[[User:Explodey|Explodey]] 00:09, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#:{{s|This is an invalid vote. Suggestion voting rules clearly say that bandwith and technical issues should not be presented as reasons against voting keep for a suggestion. [[User:Ioncannon11|Ioncannon11]] 21:12, 29 May 2008 (BST)}} <small>Non-Author Re struck. --{{User:Midianian/Sig}} 21:20, 29 May 2008 (BST)</small>
#'''Kill''' - All good suggestions. What about the feel of losing those important, quotable events? You might be so mad you kill somebody in your safehouse. It's part of the ambiance of the game, like why people still play ASCII games and mumblety-peg. They're the same, dammit. --[[User:Vandurn|Vandurn]] 00:54, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Kill''' - Not a bad suggestion, but the back button suffices for me.  {{User:BillyClubThorton/signature}} 01:28, 29 May 2008 (BST)
# Just cut and paste into notepad.  How far back do you REALLY need to go beyond the "since your last turn" anyway?  The "since your last turn" is all the information you didn't get when you logged out.  If its before that, your already aware of it since you were playing at the time.--[[User:Pesatyel|Pesatyel]] 03:18, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Kill''' - Not with the current interface and action spam we have. I also think it would be much better done as an extension.--<small>[[User:Karek#K|Karek]]<sup><font face="Monotype Corsiva">[[User:Karek/ProjDev/OmegaMap|maps?!]]</font></sup></small> 06:59, 29 May 2008 (BST)
#'''Kill''' I prefer PRTSCR myself. Especially if I log in and find I have been PKed. --&ndash; [[User:Nubis|Nubis]] 14:23, 29 May 2008 (BST)


'''Spam/Dupe Votes'''
#'''Dupe''' - I'm sure I've seen this before, and I will try to find the link to make this vote valid. --[[User:Pdeq|<span style="color: green">Pdeq</span>]]<sup><span style="color: blue">[[User_talk:Pdeq|Talk]][[Signature Race|*]]</span></sup> 06:18, 30 May 2008 (BST)
#:Found it: Dupe of [[Suggestion:20071206_Review_Game_Messages]] which was duped off [[PR_UI:_Sub_Pages#Event_Log]]. --[[User:Pdeq|<span style="color: green">Pdeq</span>]]<sup><span style="color: blue">[[User_talk:Pdeq|Talk]][[Signature Race|*]]</span></sup> 06:29, 30 May 2008 (BST)
