Response:  The confusion was simply a matter of some players not switching their tag.  It's that simple.  Maron was the leader of the Urban Paladins who were a survivor group who switched sides after consistently being pked.  Simply forgot to switch his tag. --[[User:Ebineezer Shifton|Ebineezer Shifton]] 17:07, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Do you zerg?

This post is to address the above question. I suspect the answer is "yes", but I'd like to present my case here and give you a chance to defend yourself.

Scurvy Scoungers named "zerg"

The following accounts were all created on 2009-01-03.

Furthermore, you've listed CapZerg as an important member of the Scurvy Scroungers. If so, is he also responsible for the following accounts or are they separate players?

There are other scroungers with the last name "zerg" which I have not listed. I understand that some groups like to choose similar naming conventions to show unity but perhaps you can see why this draws suspicion, particularly with the accounts created on 2009-01-03.

Confusion among the ranks?

On your newly created wiki page you've listed Maron Deldibon as an important member of the Scurvy Scroungers. I have witnessed Maron attacking in turn, within a minute of a Scrounger attack so I believe this claim to be true. However Maron's group affiliation is actually Urban Paladin, not Scurvy Scrounger. I can understand the confusion, if you are managing multiple accounts.

Response: The confusion was simply a matter of some players not switching their tag. It's that simple. Maron was the leader of the Urban Paladins who were a survivor group who switched sides after consistently being pked. Simply forgot to switch his tag. --Ebineezer Shifton 17:07, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

Lack of a wiki or forum

This wiki page was created today, Jan 27th, 2009. For quite a long time the Scroungers consisted of 10 players. But within the last few weeks your numbers have shot up to 21. This seems unusual since during that time you had no wiki page or forum to recruit with. Furthermore, Scurvy Scrounger graffiti in New Arkham is non-existant.

My question to you is - "How does a zombie group with no means of in-game communication, no wiki presence, no allies, and no advertising go from 10 to 21 members in a matter of weeks?"

My explanation is quite simple. There is no need for a forum or an in-game recruitment drive if to bolster your numbers you simply create more accounts. This is my argument. I have been biased in my argument so that it would stand on its own. However I will objectively listen to your response and I hope that the zerging, if it exists, is the result of a rogue member and not your policy as a group.

Heads up

Controll = wrong. Control = right. --Pestolence(talk) 01:09, 28 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree with Giles...something's definitely amiss with this crew.

Glad to see it wasn't just me imaginging things and I wouldn't hold my breath awaiting an honest reply from anyone in that crew. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Stockcs1 (talk • contribs) at an unknown time.

Highly organized?

LOL!, I guess its easy to launched highly organized attacks when they are controlled by only a few people. You went from 10-30 members almost overnight, no longstanding,highly advertised, well known groups have posted those kind of numbers which leaves only a single conclusion. Your group and others who engage in this kind of play are a bane to this game and the principle of fairplay. You destroy the balance that is achieved by the 50 AP limit...blah blah blah, you already know all of this and probably don't care, if you did you wouldn't be doing it in the first place. Disgusting.--Legion 19:07, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

The Great Suburb Group Massacre, 2009

Stop hand.png Group Active? Request.
In order to maintain the wiki as an up to date source of information groups are occasionally removed from the Suburb pages when they are no longer active. Is this group still active? If so simply confirm here by writing something below. If not it will be removed from suburb pages in 14 days.


Occasionally, general checks are done of group activity. This may seem like a stupid question, but it's for all groups, regardless of size. -- User:The Rooster RoosterDragon User talk:The Rooster 15:03, 13 February 2009 (UTC)
