<bisfan> nah, that was url's
so it wasn't a real profile

if you look at that, and click the profile, you see it's not real
I forget how to do that though
Revenant probably remembers
<Revenant> ZOMG!
err..?
Oh that
that's a bug
<bisfan> yeah
<Revenant> you need to disable that victim progile links GM script
and report it to Midianian
<Emmy>  how did he do that if there is no "all of grigg heights"
?
ahhht
<Revenant> Emmy, the victim link highlighting script has a bug
<Emmy>  yeah, I've heard
<Revenant> where if you say anything that ahs the word "killed"
it reformats it
like seriously, I could get such a massive RG record
by going into a building with someone with that extension
and saying "I killed this person", "I killed that person"
etc
...
* Revenant is tempted to make an "all of Grigg Heights"
<Revenant> just for WC
<3
But yeah, disable that extension
I'll link the iWitness to Midianian.
If I may?
<bisfan> sure
<Revenant> actually mind if I just copy from IRC?
<bisfan> go for it

== Greasemonkey Scripts ==
Hi there, you say on your Greasemonkey script page that if anyone has any ideas/suggestions etc. to put them here. My thought would be to simply add the co-ordinates of the current block to the right of the map links in UDML. At the moment I use a bookmarklet, which is ok, but it'd be nice to have it there all the time. --[[user:xensyria|xensyria]]<sup>[[User talk:xensyria|T]]</sup> 07:20, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Sorry, but I'd rather not duplicate the functionality of a [[GPS|game item]], especially not one that only weighs 2%. However, if you want to try doing it yourself, turning a bookmarklet into a script should only require defining the pages the script is executed on, and copy&paste (everything in the bookmarklet except the "javascript:" in the beginning). Good luck if you decide to try it. --[[User:Midianian|Midianian]]<small><sup>&#124;[[User talk:Midianian|T]]&#124;[[Developing Suggestions|DS]]&#124;[[:Category:Recently Closed Suggestions|C:RCS]]&#124;</sup></small> 12:43, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
I'm sorry to hear it, thanks for the reply though, and I may just be inspired now to try to make some kind of script - thanks for the advice! --[[user:xensyria|xensyria]]<sup>[[User talk:xensyria|T]]</sup> 13:52, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Someone was after a script to do this, so I adapted Swiers' bookmarklet to run on Greasemonkey. [http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/43906 Enjoy]. {{User:Revenant/Sig}} 12:21, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
==Suggestions==
I skimmed your portal design for the Suggestions page and I only have one major complaint. Don't include [[The_REAL_Suggestion_Guidelines]]. Have you read [[User:DCC/Suggestions]]?  It's an updated albeit "hostile" version, but more accurate than that other tripe. If a version somewhere in between was written that would work better, but please don't further that outdated and wrong essay.--{{User:Nubis/sig}} 18:28, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
I think the article has just been misunderstood a bit. It's a fine line between bitter jabs and poking fun through exaggeration (I could also have misunderstood it), but it ''is'' in the Humor category. Back when I first read DCC's article, most of his replies brougth a "''Uhh... isn't that pretty much what the author was saying?''" reaction. But anyway, it's not exactly "Help" and I don't see it fitting any of the other categories of links so it might be best to remove it from the page. --[[User:Midianian|Midianian]]<small><sup>¦[[User talk:Midianian|T]]¦[[Developing Suggestions|DS]]¦[[:Category:Recently Closed Suggestions|C:RCS]]¦</sup></small> 19:44, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

==Votes==
As a moderator or whatever format nazi you are, striking my comment may have been right. It is also your duty yo strike down Cheese' spam vote, as it is invalid. He says the idea is unworkable.
Invalid Votes
Server Load and Programming Complexity are NOT very good Kill reasons. You are voting on the merit of the suggestion and whether or not you think it belongs in the game. Server load/complexity issues are up to Kevan to decide.
--[[User:ScaredPlayer|ScaredPlayer]] 00:20, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
How is disputing spam votes a waste of time? here we have sysops and other veteran players using their experience in UD as weight to throw around when voting. Half of the people who have voted spam on mine and the other suggestion did not follow the guidelines for spam votes, and you know it.--[[User:ScaredPlayer|ScaredPlayer]] 00:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
Are you a sysop? And please refrain from personal attacks - "You'd make a fine politician."? Real mature there. It seems after my lengthy explanation many of the people who have voted (with the possible exception of extropymine) still misunderstand my point. I'm not trying to buff survivors (as EVERYONE thinks). I'm trying to make free runners and non-free runners the same. That's all. --[[User:ScaredPlayer|ScaredPlayer]] 00:29, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

No, I'm not a sysop. I'm just the guy who keeps the suggestions system (and many other places on the wiki) clean. Yes, I'm a formatting nazi (you say that like it's a bad thing! <tt>:D</tt>), after all, I did create [[Template:Formatting_Nazi|this template]]. Your signature was in the wrong place and putting the hash and colon the wrong way around messed up the numbering of the votes in the Spam/Dupe section.
I will answer to the rest in the morning (I should have been sleeping hours ago), however I'll say that you're misunderstanding a lot of things. --[[User:Midianian|Midianian]]<small><sup>¦[[User talk:Midianian|T]]¦[[Developing Suggestions|DS]]¦[[Suggestions|SP]]¦</sup></small> 00:47, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
OK, let's see...
*Cheese's vote: You misunderstand what he's saying. He doesn't mean it's impossible to implement, he's saying there is no way to rework the suggestion into a good one.
*Disputing Spam votes: It's a waste of time mostly because the difference between Spam and Kill is minimal. At the moment it looks like it's not going to affect either of the suggestions you're arguing about it on whether they're Spams or Kills.
*Guidelines for Spam votes: What I might qualify as "ridiculous" you might not. Don't assume someone is abusing the vote just because ''you'' do not think it's some crazy uber power or something else ridiculous. It's '''subjective'''.
*Personal attacks: Sorry if were offended by that, it was targeted more at politicians than you. But really, you should keep your suggestions shorter. People do not like to read a lot of stuff, especially when most of it is only reasoning for the suggestion and the suggestion itself is rather simple.
*Your suggestion: People do not care what you '''mean''' to do with the suggestion. You might be trying to make free runners and non-free runners the same, but that's not what people are seeing the effect being. And that's how they're going to vote.

What you said about stuff qualifying as "ridiculous" is true... although there's gotta be some kind of objective standard, otherwise everyone would just spam every suggestion they don't like, claiming it's "some kind of uber super power imba" shit like that.
And yes, I will try to keep my suggestions shorter in the future - it seems UD Wiki members are turned off by lengthy explanations.
But seriously - what's your take? don't you think you should at least be able to turn free running off? What if you want to move to the street of an adjacent block without spending the extra AP (click building, exit building)? it is kind of annoying, I think. and the ruined building problem, too is a real annoyance. ill prolly suggest a free running toggle some time in the future --[[User:ScaredPlayer|ScaredPlayer]] 18:52, 27 March 2009 (UTC)
There does not need to be an objective standard. "''everyone would just spam every suggestion they don't like''" Does it happen? No. Some people just have tighter criteria, some have pretty loose, others something in between. They balance each other out, more or less. And like I said, there isn't a big difference between Spam and Kill. Most of the time it makes ''no'' difference whether the Spams are Spams or Kills, and I dare say pretty much any suggestion that gets spaminated would have been rejected anyway.
I don't think toggling the skill is the answer either. It'd be a bit annoying to use and would suck if you forgot it in the wrong position. I've been thinking and I'll probably make a suggestion about it in a couple of days. --[[User:Midianian|Midianian]]<small><sup>¦[[User talk:Midianian|T]]¦[[Developing Suggestions|DS]]¦[[Suggestions|SP]]¦</sup></small> 00:04, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

The link DDR gave explains part of it. The important bit missing from that explanation is that struck votes must be indented (#:) so that they will not be counted. If the vote is the first vote in a section, it must not have the # at the beginning or it will screw up the numbering. It also helps to look at the "source" to see how other people have [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Suggestion:20090421_Anger,_Rage,_Berserk&action=edit&section=2 done it], try different things, and use the preview button.

== Just a question about the gennies ==
From some type of discussion, but the link got cut, sorry.  I don't know if this was important or not...
"No, it's neither of those. Am I really that unclear or is it just you? What I'm saying here is that why would the fifth be a problem, when four wouldn't? Though strictly speaking, even five generators wouldn't be a problem, you'd have to have some other stuff in addition to those five for it to be a problem. The inventory system is really unrealistic, this wouldn't fix that. This would just annoy people. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 10:55, 15 April 2009 (BST)"
-Now c’mon…how hard is it to jump from rooftop to rooftop carrying a fire axe, a first aid kit, a fuel can, and 5 generators?  The inventory system makes PERFECT sense!--[[User:Kolechovski|Kolechovski]] 22:35, 2 June 2009 (BST)
== Minor omission in UDBSC ==
I've been using (and modifying to taste) a few of your userscripts since I started playing UD a little over a month ago, and I recently noticed one omission in the building state colorizer. Forts that have their gates open are currently not colorized. To get around it, I added a line that looks for and colorizes "hang open", since the actual text of the page says something like "the gates hang open at an uneven angle". Just thought I'd point it out for any future updates you might push out. Thanks. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 03:30, 2 October 2009 (BST)
I never really spent much time in the forts <tt>:P</tt>. I think the script had some other error too, I'll see if I can remember what it was and then update it in a couple of days. Also, I think I'll merge your edits into it to make it easier for people to customize the colour-scheme <tt>:)</tt>. --[[User:Midianian|Midianian]] 09:31, 12 October 2009 (BST)
I haven't spent much time in them either...I'm mostly knocking politely on the gates. <tt>;)</tt> As for my edits, most of them were pretty hackish in nature, since I wasn't really planning to release the scripts, and I think the only extra functionality I added was the ability to do underlines; otherwise, I just changed the colors around to match my preference. Plus, the version I have posted at the moment doesn't have the fix for the forts in it. I'll post my most recent version of the script once I get home tonight, that way you're not looking at an old copy of it. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 15:20, 12 October 2009 (BST)
It's mostly the change from noBold to bold. Definitely clearer that way if someone wants to customize the colours. Oh, and the scripts are working in GreaseKit, right? --[[User:Midianian|Midianian]] 17:37, 12 October 2009 (BST)
Yep. I've used all of your scripts at some point, and they all work just fine as far as I've seen. The GM_* functions are really the only big thing to watch out for with GreaseKit, and you haven't used those here. Otherwise, the only things to watch out for are that GreaseKit scripts execute in lexicographical order only and that the space available in the UI for seeing the names of the scripts is extremely limited (hence my changes to your scripts so that they start with "UD" instead of "Urban Dead"). {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:16, 12 October 2009 (BST)
== Urban Dead Victim Link picking up weapon kills ==
Hey, I just thought I'd point out that with the new update that shows what weapon killed the target, when you click on the victim name it will open up the profile database to a search of "Midianian with a pistol" for example. --{{User:AnimeSucks/Sig}} 16:29, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
I haven't had a chance to test it out myself yet, but I think if you change
<pre> { rex: /^ killed (.*)\. $/, textPre: ' killed ', textPost: '. ' },</pre>
to be
<pre> { rex: /^ killed (.*) with a (.*)\. $/, textPre: ' killed ', textPost: '. ' },</pre>
it'll do the trick for weapon-based kills, though I don't think it handles zombie kills yet (and I can't remember what the new flavor text is for zombies off the top of my head). You can edit your scripts via Greasemonkey, so you should be able to make the change yourself pretty easily. If it doesn't handle zombies already, I'm sure the fix will be pretty simple once we get ahold of the flavor text. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 18:21, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
To follow up again, if you make just those changes, it'll work again, but it will no longer show you what weapon was used for the kill. I've posted a [[User:Aichon/Userscripts#UD Victim Links|modified version]] that makes the appropriate changes so that it displays the weapon, though I'm not sure I've worked out all of the kinks yet since I haven't been able to test it much yet. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 00:01, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

If I've started the discussion on your page, I'd appreciate if the rest of the discussion took place there (I hate having one part of the discussion on one page and the other part on another page). So, please reply there unless your answer is urgent. Even in that case I'd prefer if you left only a "beep" kind of message here pointing to the original discussion. I always put the pages I talk on to my watchlist (I've got it on automatic), so I will get back to you. It just won't be the first thing I do when I check the wiki. I will move your comment back when I reply. If you do not want this, tell me and I'll copy my original comment here and we'll have the discussion on this page.

This page does not follow standard indentation practice. The main thread of discussion goes straight down, no indentation. If you have something to say to/about a specific comment that doesn't really concern the main issue, place that message below the comment and increase the indentation by one level. Further discussion about/relating to that comment should be placed below the side-tracked comment at the same indentation level. I will move and/or re-indent comments to their proper places if they are incorrectly placed. A quick look below (or in the archives) should give you some idea how I want the discussion to look.

If you write here, then I answer here. Please sign your posts. New messages at the bottom, using this link, or the '+' button at the very top of the page, next to 'edit'. Thank you.

You don't have to care about the context messages, I'll add one if I think it's needed.

Changing policy docs

I tried to answer Iscariot on his talk page, but he deleted my comment. Just thought I'd repost it here, in case you're interested (and miss the history).

"You don't go back changing the policies that were voted on in light of new policies, because users signed votes for the policy as is... not as subsequently changed months or years later. To suggest otherwise is ridiculous, and would be impersonation under our current wiki rules. The policy vote pages need to be viewed as historical documents only, and later changes taken into account when reading them" -- boxy talkteh rulz 12:49 29 October 2008 (BST)

Arbies

I think there's just a misunderstanding somewhere. I'm just saying as a rule of thumb if they show up on Stats.html they shouldn't be refused from making an advert on the basis that they aren't a group. Not that stats.html should bar people from making ads, not even that we should write it into the rules so much as we made it clear that the game engine is god when it comes to having the final say on if a group doesn't count as a group.--Karekmaps?! 18:00, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

The recruitment section is meant to work with the Stats.html page, the rule should be if you show up there you can show up here.

It doesn't display any items, just blank space below "Inventory". I'll dig up the iWit to find what else broke it. Cheers. 20:50, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, the first thing: you're using the latest version (1.0), right? If you're using Firefox, you could look in the Error Console (in the Tools menu) and tell me what it says there (just the bits about the script). --Midianian|T|DS|C:RCS| 20:59, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Nothing in the error console, 1.0, and I'm seeing this. 21:19, 20 December 2008 (UTC)

Should be fixed now. I'll probably modify it later so that it doesn't leave you with an empty inventory if it crashes :P --Midianian|T|DS|C:RCS| 01:22, 21 December 2008 (UTC)

Greasemonkey Scripts

Hi there, you say on your Greasemonkey script page that if anyone has any ideas/suggestions etc. to put them here. My thought would be to simply add the co-ordinates of the current block to the right of the map links in UDML. At the moment I use a bookmarklet, which is ok, but it'd be nice to have it there all the time. --xensyriaT 07:20, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, but I'd rather not duplicate the functionality of a game item, especially not one that only weighs 2%. However, if you want to try doing it yourself, turning a bookmarklet into a script should only require defining the pages the script is executed on, and copy&paste (everything in the bookmarklet except the "javascript:" in the beginning). Good luck if you decide to try it. --Midianian|T|DS|C:RCS| 12:43, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry to hear it, thanks for the reply though, and I may just be inspired now to try to make some kind of script - thanks for the advice! --xensyriaT 13:52, 11 February 2009 (UTC)

Someone was after a script to do this, so I adapted Swiers' bookmarklet to run on Greasemonkey. Enjoy. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾ 12:21, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

Suggestions

I skimmed your portal design for the Suggestions page and I only have one major complaint. Don't include The_REAL_Suggestion_Guidelines. Have you read User:DCC/Suggestions? It's an updated albeit "hostile" version, but more accurate than that other tripe. If a version somewhere in between was written that would work better, but please don't further that outdated and wrong essay.--– Nubis NWO 18:28, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

I think the article has just been misunderstood a bit. It's a fine line between bitter jabs and poking fun through exaggeration (I could also have misunderstood it), but it is in the Humor category. Back when I first read DCC's article, most of his replies brougth a "Uhh... isn't that pretty much what the author was saying?" reaction. But anyway, it's not exactly "Help" and I don't see it fitting any of the other categories of links so it might be best to remove it from the page. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦C:RCS¦ 19:44, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

I try not to have anything to do with him but he just keeps coming back and I am damned if I am going to let him have it all his own way when near enough every post I make attracts his petty insults. I don't give a rats ass if he disagrees with me but I am sick and tired of his constant snide remarks and accusations. If you consider it to be shitting up the page then feel free to move it to the talk page, I would if I fancied him A/VBing me but in the meantime I would appreciate it if you kept the insults to yourself. --Honestmistake 16:44, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Votes

As a moderator or whatever format nazi you are, striking my comment may have been right. It is also your duty yo strike down Cheese' spam vote, as it is invalid. He says the idea is unworkable.

Invalid Votes Server Load and Programming Complexity are NOT very good Kill reasons. You are voting on the merit of the suggestion and whether or not you think it belongs in the game. Server load/complexity issues are up to Kevan to decide.

--ScaredPlayer 00:20, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

How is disputing spam votes a waste of time? here we have sysops and other veteran players using their experience in UD as weight to throw around when voting. Half of the people who have voted spam on mine and the other suggestion did not follow the guidelines for spam votes, and you know it.--ScaredPlayer 00:22, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Are you a sysop? And please refrain from personal attacks - "You'd make a fine politician."? Real mature there. It seems after my lengthy explanation many of the people who have voted (with the possible exception of extropymine) still misunderstand my point. I'm not trying to buff survivors (as EVERYONE thinks). I'm trying to make free runners and non-free runners the same. That's all. --ScaredPlayer 00:29, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

YOU REALLY ARE A FORMAT NAZI LOL http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=Suggestion:20090324_Change_to_Free_Running&diff=1421971&oldid=1421963 —The preceding unsigned comment was added by ScaredPlayer (talkcontribs) at an unknown time.

No, I'm not a sysop. I'm just the guy who keeps the suggestions system (and many other places on the wiki) clean. Yes, I'm a formatting nazi (you say that like it's a bad thing! :D), after all, I did create this template. Your signature was in the wrong place and putting the hash and colon the wrong way around messed up the numbering of the votes in the Spam/Dupe section.

I will answer to the rest in the morning (I should have been sleeping hours ago), however I'll say that you're misunderstanding a lot of things. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 00:47, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

OK, let's see...

  • Cheese's vote: You misunderstand what he's saying. He doesn't mean it's impossible to implement, he's saying there is no way to rework the suggestion into a good one.
  • Disputing Spam votes: It's a waste of time mostly because the difference between Spam and Kill is minimal. At the moment it looks like it's not going to affect either of the suggestions you're arguing about it on whether they're Spams or Kills.
  • Guidelines for Spam votes: What I might qualify as "ridiculous" you might not. Don't assume someone is abusing the vote just because you do not think it's some crazy uber power or something else ridiculous. It's subjective.
  • Personal attacks: Sorry if were offended by that, it was targeted more at politicians than you. But really, you should keep your suggestions shorter. People do not like to read a lot of stuff, especially when most of it is only reasoning for the suggestion and the suggestion itself is rather simple.
  • Your suggestion: People do not care what you mean to do with the suggestion. You might be trying to make free runners and non-free runners the same, but that's not what people are seeing the effect being. And that's how they're going to vote.

--Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 08:36, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

What you said about stuff qualifying as "ridiculous" is true... although there's gotta be some kind of objective standard, otherwise everyone would just spam every suggestion they don't like, claiming it's "some kind of uber super power imba" shit like that. And yes, I will try to keep my suggestions shorter in the future - it seems UD Wiki members are turned off by lengthy explanations.

But seriously - what's your take? don't you think you should at least be able to turn free running off? What if you want to move to the street of an adjacent block without spending the extra AP (click building, exit building)? it is kind of annoying, I think. and the ruined building problem, too is a real annoyance. ill prolly suggest a free running toggle some time in the future --ScaredPlayer 18:52, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

There does not need to be an objective standard. "everyone would just spam every suggestion they don't like" Does it happen? No. Some people just have tighter criteria, some have pretty loose, others something in between. They balance each other out, more or less. And like I said, there isn't a big difference between Spam and Kill. Most of the time it makes no difference whether the Spams are Spams or Kills, and I dare say pretty much any suggestion that gets spaminated would have been rejected anyway.

I don't think toggling the skill is the answer either. It'd be a bit annoying to use and would suck if you forgot it in the wrong position. I've been thinking and I'll probably make a suggestion about it in a couple of days. --Midianian¦T¦DS¦SP¦ 00:04, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

The link DDR gave explains part of it. The important bit missing from that explanation is that struck votes must be indented (#:) so that they will not be counted. If the vote is the first vote in a section, it must not have the # at the beginning or it will screw up the numbering.

Minor omission in UDBSC

I've been using (and modifying to taste) a few of your userscripts since I started playing UD a little over a month ago, and I recently noticed one omission in the building state colorizer. Forts that have their gates open are currently not colorized. To get around it, I added a line that looks for and colorizes "hang open", since the actual text of the page says something like "the gates hang open at an uneven angle". Just thought I'd point it out for any future updates you might push out. Thanks. Aichon 03:30, 2 October 2009 (BST)

I never really spent much time in the forts :P. I think the script had some other error too, I'll see if I can remember what it was and then update it in a couple of days. Also, I think I'll merge your edits into it to make it easier for people to customize the colour-scheme :). --Midianian 09:31, 12 October 2009 (BST)

I haven't spent much time in them either...I'm mostly knocking politely on the gates. ;) As for my edits, most of them were pretty hackish in nature, since I wasn't really planning to release the scripts, and I think the only extra functionality I added was the ability to do underlines; otherwise, I just changed the colors around to match my preference. Plus, the version I have posted at the moment doesn't have the fix for the forts in it. I'll post my most recent version of the script once I get home tonight, that way you're not looking at an old copy of it. Aichon 15:20, 12 October 2009 (BST)

It's mostly the change from noBold to bold. Definitely clearer that way if someone wants to customize the colours. Oh, and the scripts are working in GreaseKit, right? --Midianian 17:37, 12 October 2009 (BST)

Yep. I've used all of your scripts at some point, and they all work just fine as far as I've seen. The GM_* functions are really the only big thing to watch out for with GreaseKit, and you haven't used those here. Otherwise, the only things to watch out for are that GreaseKit scripts execute in lexicographical order only and that the space available in the UI for seeing the names of the scripts is extremely limited (hence my changes to your scripts so that they start with "UD" instead of "Urban Dead"). Aichon 18:16, 12 October 2009 (BST)

Urban Dead Victim Link picking up weapon kills

Hey, I just thought I'd point out that with the new update that shows what weapon killed the target, when you click on the victim name it will open up the profile database to a search of "Midianian with a pistol" for example. --THE Godfather of Яesensitized, Anime Sucks Yalk | W! U! WMM| CC CPFOAS DORISFlag.jpg LOE ZHU | Яezzens 16:29, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

I haven't had a chance to test it out myself yet, but I think if you change

	{ rex: /^ killed (.*)\. $/,				textPre: ' killed ',	textPost: '. '				},

to be

	{ rex: /^ killed (.*) with a (.*)\. $/,			textPre: ' killed ',	textPost: '. '				},

it'll do the trick for weapon-based kills, though I don't think it handles zombie kills yet (and I can't remember what the new flavor text is for zombies off the top of my head). You can edit your scripts via Greasemonkey, so you should be able to make the change yourself pretty easily. If it doesn't handle zombies already, I'm sure the fix will be pretty simple once we get ahold of the flavor text. Aichon 18:21, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

To follow up again, if you make just those changes, it'll work again, but it will no longer show you what weapon was used for the kill. I've posted a modified version that makes the appropriate changes so that it displays the weapon, though I'm not sure I've worked out all of the kinks yet since I haven't been able to test it much yet.
