Talk:NecroWatch

Join NecroWatch... NOW!

Interested in becoming a full-time NecroTechnician? Of course you are! Who wouldn't want the fame and glory commonly associated with publically posting NecroNet scans, fame and glory lost on those survivors who scan and fail to report their scans. What's up with that? Just be sure to read the FAQ first so you know exactly what you're signing up for. Anywho, if you still want to join then just sign on the dotted line and provide the following information:

User Name - Who you are on the UD Wiki. Sure you could just sign your post and I would know, but this is more formal. What? I'm ALL about formality.
Profile(s) - Provide links to the characters you wish to dedicate to the job of providing NecroNet scans for NecroWatch. You are not limited to just one character, obviously, so long as your alts are not working together or within close proximity. But that just goes without saying.
Group Affiliation - Feel free to plug the group(s) associated with your character(s). I fully support shameless advertising.
Suburb(s) - List the suburbs you plan to cover. If your character(s) is mobile/nomadic then you can simply state "Malton". It's not necessary to report which characters will be reporting scans from which suburbs... after all it's healthy to be paranoid.

Please add your entry to the bottom of the signup list and that's it. Simple right? After that your name will be added to the Members List in the appropriate rank/alphabetical order and then you're official. Of course you don't need to become a NecroTechnician to report scans. In those instances please refer to the appropriate section (below) where you can post links to your NT scans.

Necrotech perspective?

I recently checked the Community portal to see if I could do anything. That's when I came across the prior link. "Necrotech perspective?" That has Necrowatch written all over it. DOWN WITH DISORGANIZATION! Any ideas for directive 42-A? I just feel it should be a group effort (we may want to claim it with one of the awesome templates at our disposial like "this page detailing directive 42-A is under construction by the NecroWatch team").--Uberursa 22:12, 23 August 2009 (BST)

Give me some time, I'll get back to you in this; just saw your note. Thanks--Dr Mycroft Chris 14:59, 27 September 2009 (BST)

I heard...

I heard I was needed? Dr Red Shadows

Yes indeed! We always need people to help submit scans and contribute to the project. Have a look around, you might like what you see. CITIZEN VI 21:11, 24 June 2009 (BST)

No like. In game. Like I already joined but someone said that someone needed to talk to me or something. Dr Red Shadows

You've already joined? Ha! No, that's all I meant. I didn't know you were already with the project. CITIZEN VI 21:32, 24 June 2009 (BST)

You were the one who said I was needed??? Dr Red Shadows

Yes. CITIZEN VI 21:45, 24 June 2009 (BST)

Why me? You liked the name? Or my skills. Am I level 2. Yes. I am,. Dr Red Shadows

As a scientist with an eagerness to help out, you fit the bill entirely. CITIZEN VI 22:05, 24 June 2009 (BST)

Okay, and thanks. Dr Red Shadows

Announcing the creation of the NecroWatch Research Group

Hello again everyone. I want to invite you all to join me in attempting to unravel the remaining mysteries about the NecroTech machinery left around Malton. Silly discussion header notwithstanding, I'd like to take this opportunity to have a serious look at, particularly, the DNA Extractor device. There is appallingly little information about this device on the wiki, and there are a few glaring holes in our body of knowledge regarding the thing.

Basically, I'm going to write up a list of questions, which I will then attempt to answer through scientific means, and I hope the rest of you will join me in this endeavor. So, without further ado, the list:

• What is the significance of the string of numbers generated by a scan -- e.g. Filed as #9983022/24?

• When does a scanned zombie disappear from the NecroNet? The common consensus is "after it takes an action", but this seems to be a rumour, and I want to take the small amount of effort required to test it.

The first is most intriguing to me, but so far I have utterly failed to make any headway in answering it, except to determine what it is not. Anyone see anything obvious that I might have missed? CITIZEN VI 01:55, 3 June 2009 (BST)

Can't speak to the first query, but I imagine a zombie "disappears" when revived and does not reappear into NecroNet until another DNA scan is performed upon subject if/when they are re-zombiefied. Otherwise, zed numbers would fluctuate wildly during a siege and probably appear amazingly low--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:57, 18 June 2009 (BST)

Yeah I've been extremely mystified by NecroNet at times. For instance, check out Image:ShowersBuildingNecronet.png, your update stamped 01:59, 1 May 2009, and mine just about 18 hours later. 13 in yours, 69 in mine! ... the hell? Duh. I just noticed. Haha. I was sure you scanned that day, so I kinda missed the date, I just looked at the time. Never mind.

Anyway, count me in. All my alts have NecroNet Access by now, I'm willing to help any way I can. --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 22:49, 18 June 2009 (BST)

If you need a zombie to test that, I could have one of my dual natured alts shamble over. As for the file code, I'm betting tis just something churned out from that excuse of a RNG we have, your best bet is probably just to get everybody to post some numbers here and see if you notice any patterns. --  RoosterDragon  23:19, 18 June 2009 (BST)

NW Scan templates in the Suburb News

That template is very large and very intrusive and disruptive on the suburb pages. Part of the problem is the black background but it's also just too durn big. Could you consider making some changes? --WanYao 06:43, 28 May 2009 (BST)

Thanks, we'll get to work on it pronto. Alka? I know it's your work...maybe just a white backround. It's your baby so I am hesitant to tamper with it--Dr Mycroft Chris 09:09, 29 May 2009 (BST)

This is just some stylistic advice, but I think the template would be better if it weren't in the A.L.I.C.E. style (Just because it seems to me that it is better suited only to ALICE's creepy statements -- not so much general NW messages, you know?). A subtle green-and-whatever in the general NW style would fit suburb pages much better, I think. Maybe I'll make some mock-ups. CITIZEN VI 03:29, 1 June 2009 (BST)

Well, nobody should be hesitant to make changes to it. This is a wiki after all, and every time you add stuff here you get the If you don't want your writing to be edited mercilessly, then don't submit it here. notice. We were giving it a try. We should use the plain old style reports in the news until someone comes up with a better template. As I said before, I'm not an artist. I'll focus on my scripts to ease bookkeeping task of NecroWatch Members, and would be happy if someone else works on a template for news. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  20:53, 4 June 2009 (BST)

Part of the "too big" Problem is the fixed width of 750px and probably the image. As a "hot fix" i removed the width: statement along with the align=center, so it should scale with the browser window. The colors, however, are a different matter.-- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  10:23, 6 June 2009 (BST)

Oh, and i resized the Image to 50px. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  10:26, 6 June 2009 (BST)

Ok, here's my entry to this thread. It has been resized to 500px. Thought that the ALICE icon should be normal sized. Personally prefer the NW template over the ALICE template because it represents better branding for us. The ALICE template is cool...but we're promoting NecroWatch, very few techs outside of our team even know who she is; cross purposes and all that--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:01, 11 June 2009 (BST)

Scouting Reports for suburbs without NTs

As the leader for the Order of the Black Rose, I want to sincerely thank NecroWatch for the Scouting Reports posted in Crooketon, Mornington, and Reganbank. Since we are constantly moving through all of these areas, as well as Grigg Heights and Lerwill Heights, I cannot begin to say how valuable these are for these areas that lack NT buildings. Please continue this service! --Maverick ^{Talk - OBR 404} 13:16, 3 May 2009 (BST)

Thanks!--Dr Mycroft Chris 23:01, 3 May 2009 (BST)

Quarlesbank

Has 4 Nt's and some of the oldest recorded scans. 404 barhah not found are in the process of securing them, so now would be a perfect time to get those scans! --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 22:30, 1 May 2009 (BST)

I'm moving up to Judgewood with the MCM, so while I'm there I'll be able to get scans from the local suburbs. CITIZEN VI 04:33, 2 May 2009 (BST)

Gone Fishing

Well I'm going fishing, for a while... maybe forever. I like fishing, what can I say? But seriously I can't say if I will be gone forever, as I returned once before, but for the time being I will be away and as a responsible adult I felt I was obligated to let everyone know. In the meantime, feel free to continue having fun with NecroWatch and try not to burn down the house while I'm gone. I expect the dishes done when I come back and I'll bring cake. Just joking. There will be no cake.

For those of you wondering why I'm departing UD (again), well UD takes up a lot of my free time, which by definition is "free" and thus available, however my friends have interested me in an old/new game that requires a lot of effort on my part to run. So as I have to choose one, I went with the ones my friends favoured... as none of them play UD (anymore). Anywho, I'm sure you'll all do nicely without me regardless. So good luck everyone and keep up the great work! --Mobius 13:16, 20 April 2009 (BST)

Free time is our only valuable asset. A game, or metagaming, by definition should be fun. If it becomes work, it's time to take a break and try something else. I hope your old/new game is not really about fishing, though ;) -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  18:35, 20 April 2009 (BST)

It was fine having you here and it shall not be the same; it's true you know...one man can make a difference, that's why we will never forgive you for it! ha ha ha !! Seriously, you set a high bar and we'll carry on, stiff upper lip and all that.--Dr Mycroft Chris 18:36, 20 April 2009 (BST)

Promotional Ideas for NecroWatch

CONCLUSION

1. We will use the template HERE created by Alka Selzer for suburb NT scan updates so that it will garner us more attention.

NecroWatch

NecroWatch reported in from the Attwell Building. The scan revealed 55 zombies within the scanning range of the facility. Of those numbers, 15 were at Barbara General Hospital and 5 at Billett Row School. Furthermore, 6 zombies were at St. Lazar's Hospital, 4 zombies in Mallard Library and 8 zombies at a cemetery in West Becktown. The remaining zombies were scattered across the area in numbers of 1 to 3. Necro Technician:-- -Alka Selzer- [ Talk - Map - Stuff ]  14:41, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

2. A promo ad is up at Recruitment and will link to Extropymine's Beginner's Guide

...Needs YOU! Zombies just don't count themselves, we need YOU to scan & post those scans to help the fight against BARHAH & disorganization And there is delicious cake for those who qualify...just ask A.L.I.C.E. ...she's watching right now If you think you got what it takes (sheer indifference to all other concerns, lone wolf type personality, a tad bit vain, a taste for cake) contact NecroWatch today, we'll set you on the road to fame & glory tomorrow! To learn more review the complete README.TXT file stored on the root directory before proceeding.

I just went ahead and made it happen, if anyone has issues with the copy, I'm fine with that. If you can write funnier/more engaging copy...have at it--Dr Mycroft Chris 06:23, 22 April 2009 (BST)

Don't forget to timestamp the ad. I'll try to keep an eye on it. Linkthewindow  Talk  07:53, 22 April 2009 (BST)

I thought I did...I'll check it, thanks--Dr Mycroft Chris 09:32, 22 April 2009 (BST)

Hi. I've been messing around with Chris' promotional banner idea (and the actual banner, because it's just so cool), and I thought I'd post what I've got and ask for input. I'd like to finish up something like this very nicely and put it on the wiki somewhere so that it can double both as a recruitment advertisement, if it turns out to be more eye-catching than our current one (which I expect it is -- Mycroft really knows how to find great images), and as a poster that wew can slap on the walls of NT buildings to get that added recruitment aspect. (I also have a version without the large text box if anyone wants to mess around with it)

Advert Text Here.

What do you think? I've yet to put anything in the box (Ideally I'd figure out a way to put an actual wiki text box in there, but that's beyond me at the moment), but I think a short-and-sexy description of NW and perhaps some advice for starting up with the project would be good. CITIZEN VI 05:32, 5 June 2009 (BST)

That's pretty awesome. If you want a "textbox", you could achieve that by using some divs, I'll knock up a version if you guys decide to use the image and can think of something to have for text. --  RoosterDragon  02:09, 9 June 2009 (BST)

That would be great, thanks! CITIZEN VI 20:40, 10 June 2009 (BST)

To save space, I've put the code around the image you posted. You can edit it as needed. --  RoosterDragon  21:24, 10 June 2009 (BST)

WOW! That looks great! Will they let us put in on the Recruitment Page though? Size limits and all that...--Dr Mycroft Chris 20:07, 11 June 2009 (BST)

Three options-

1. Post it anyway, nobody policies the current image rule because its moronic.
2. Vote "Yes" on the new rules, then you only have to meet the 56K requirement (might need to downsize and compress somewhat, but I think it's possible)
3. Divide the image up into blobs of 275*275 and post all of them to get the same result AND abide by the current moronic rule. Yay loopholes!

This post of questionable morality brought to you by --  RoosterDragon  21:08, 11 June 2009 (BST)

Done! Down sampled the photo work by Citizen, well within limits now--Dr Mycroft Chris 00:26, 12 June 2009 (BST)

Medal/Trophy Ribbon Suggestions

Everyone wants a pat on the back for a job well done. As some of you may have been around the proverbial block a few times and collected most or all the medal ribbons offered to date, you might be thinking it's time for NecroWatch to add some new medal ribbons. This is the place to discuss these suggestions. As always post the more current topics at the top of this section.

Suggested Ribbon Summary

NOTE: The following is a summary of existing ribbon suggestions after the debate over them has ended. These suggestions may have already been moved to the Archive, but in order to track them a summary is listed below. This post is not to be archived (obviously). If you have further comments on a suggested ribbon please start a new thread in this section titled after the ribbon.

Endurance Ribbon

• Name: Ironclad Scanner
• Category: Medal Ribbon
• Description: A medal ribbon awarded to the NecroTechnician who reports 7 scans, 1 per day, from the same NT building (selected by the NecroTechnician) in a "red" (Very Dangerous) suburb. The suburb (i.e. Eastonwood) and/or NT building (i.e. The Blackmore Building) may, or may not, be predefined requirements for the ribbon.
• Concerns/Alternates?: If famous locations are selected, this may cause ribbons to overlap, such as the Blackmore Watchkeeper or Eastonwood Tour of Duty. Perhaps it would be better to target suburbs based only on their danger status.

Marathon Ribbon

• Name: Four Corners
• Category: Medal/Trophy Ribbon
• Description: A medal, or maybe trophy, ribbon which requires NecroTechnicians to report scans from the NTs within specific suburbs scattered across Malton. The NT reports may also be required in a specific order, similar to points in a race course. The first such ribbon would be awarded to any NecroTechnician who reported scans from the NTs located in each of the four corner suburbs (Dakerstown, Dulston, Miltown, New Arkham).
• Concerns/Alternates?: Any NecroTechnician who has already reported from these 4 suburbs will automatically earn this as a medal ribbon.

There should be a time limit on this run, this way it has to be done anew regardless of previous scans;Flinley in Milltown, Trood in Dulston, Pask in Dakerstown,Mitchner in New Arkham for the circle but you could also criss-cross them too to make it intresting...14 days? I think previous scans don't count, you HAVE to make the run!--Dr Mycroft Chris 20:38, 4 May 2009 (BST)

Yah, you have to announce it here somewhere with a timestamp and then... run! That way, it may be a challenge. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  22:10, 4 May 2009 (BST)

• Ribbon Design:

Most Crowded Scan

• Name: Mob Chaser
• Category: Trophy Ribbon
• Description: A trophy ribbon awarded to the NecroTechnician who reports a scan with the most zombies (total). This is a competition that runs through the entire year (January 1st to December 31st) with a winner declared on the first day of the new year. All reported scans must be made/linked via iWitness as proof. This trophy ribbon will be awarded on an annual basis and a list compiled of past winners.
• Concerns/Alternates?: A year? Will people be interested in it for that long? How about running it for a month, annually, and the NecroTechnician who reports the largest total at the end of the month wins for that year.

Whoever has the highest number gets the ribbon, regardless of contest or time limits. Current winner has a the standard ribbon, past winners are allowed to keep the same ribbon but it is muted in brightness or somehow different but still recognizable as that ribbon. OR have a basic design that can be augmented like our NT scan # ribbon for the total number of zeds scanned. Over 100? 1 gold bar, over 200? 2 gold bars, etc...and of course, a magical over 1000 zed scan just so that we got something to reach for LOL--Dr Mycroft Chris 04:18, 4 April 2009 (BST)

Twin NTs Ribbon

Here's a thought, how about ribbons to celebrate scanning from Malton's "twin NTs", namely the Cheeke Building and the Haslock Building? As any NecroTechnician worth his salt knows these are the only NT buildings that share the same names in all of Malton, with their locations being in: Eastonwood, Ruddlebank, Chancelwood and Quarlesbank. The only overlap we would be looking at is with the NT in Eastonwood, as currently we have the Eastonwood Tour of Duty ribbon, which requires this NT to complete. As there are only 4 NTs, and 3 of them are relatively close together, I figure it's best to create one ribbon for all 4 of them. --Mobius 16:03, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Got my vote--Dr Mycroft Chris 03:46, 7 April 2009 (BST)

• Ribbon Design:

South Malton NT Ribbons

I am going to re-post this here as I think it deserves another chance to be discussed. It was pointed out a while back that most of the popular NT buildings which had their own ribbon (for when you report a scan from it) are all in north Malton. As such, I wanted to hear everyone's thoughts on what NTs in south Malton deserved credit for being famous in some way, and thus, deserved their own medal ribbon awarded to whomever posts a scan from that location. --Mobius 13:53, 1 April 2009 (BST)

I would love to nominate my home 'burb, Penny Heights, but for the life of me, all I got is that it is the only 'burb with 2 malls and always ends up being very attractive to both zombies and the PK crowd. Whittenside has a better reason as it is the home of the Feral Undead and Fort Perryn; getting scans there can be regularly difficult--Dr Mycroft Chris 22:47, 5 April 2009 (BST)

Hmmm, you may have a point with Whittenside. What we want are NT buildings that have historic value to them. Of the three NT buildings in Whittenside, which one do you believe should be the one most likely deserving of the ribbon medal? The Malcolm Building is the closest to the fort, but the Colglough Building is next to a hospital. I'm not familiar with the suburb myself, so I can hardly say which is the more famous location. --Mobius 14:03, 6 April 2009 (BST)

For South Malton, I am definitely picking Malcolm then. It was a constant struggle to get that scan which took me over a week for just one NT. The area is forever in an uproar between survivors & zeds. Must admit, I don't know if there is a dedicated NT crew there but if there was, they would have their work cut out for them. It's not as deadly as Blackmoore in Ridleybank...but its close--Dr Mycroft Chris 15:08, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Without having much history in UD - give the NT Buildings closest to both Forts a ribbon (maybe another for getting both Scans); and give the NT buildings in all 4 corners (farthest from center of map) a ribbon (maybe another for all 4). Seriously, it is not THAT hard to travel around in Malton. And it is fun, i must say. Remember, people tend to collect all they can get - they will still try to get "northern" ribbons as long as they exist. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  23:11, 5 April 2009 (BST)

I take it then you are recommending ribbons for the Malcolm Building (Fort Perryn) and the Farmer Building (Fort Creedy). Then again there is already a ribbon medal for [the Morrish Building]], so I think Farmer NT wouldn't make the cut. There is the Maine Building... I suppose, but is that grasping at straws? For now maybe we should just consider the Malcolm Building in terms of Fort NTs. On the matter of 4-Corners, well, we have one already for the Pask Building in Dakerstown (mission accomplished). I cannot speak for the two south corners, but I do know a lot about the northeast corner. If there was a medal ribbon for Dulston it would most defeinitely be for the Whitlock Building, aka "The Fortress of Science". The key factor is that we want the ribbons to be associated with historic NT locations. --Mobius 14:03, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Hey Buddy! This is the SOUTH Malton thread, let's keep it straight...LOL:D, Anyway, joining in as well, I would recommend The Mighty Haslock in Chancelwood, I know, I know...it's way up North. But the scene of ever present zombie sieges because of THEM. Talk about an organized group of survivors, damn! They put a lot to shame--Dr Mycroft Chris 15:08, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Wait. You admonish me for talking about Dulston, and then you bring up Chancelwood? Not cool dude. ;P

I agree, Haslock has come up before primarily because of THEM running the show from Haslock NT. Huh. I just had a thought... Haslock is famous for something else too, it's one of two sets of NT buildings that share the same name. Now that may be worth considering for a different kind of ribbon medal... but on the matter at hand, yes, we should find out which NT building "south of the border" are worthy of praise. --Mobius 15:52, 6 April 2009 (BST)

We should find a way to link this from the main wiki somehow. CITIZEN VI 17:41, 6 May 2009 (BST)

First, we should create a template and Image pages one can update like the regular scans. With instructions maybe. Later, those templates could be displayed at the building page for the buildings mentioned above. Maybe we should even prepare Wikicode-Maps like the barricade plans for that, as it is a lot of work to create and combine the screens. Thoughts? -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  17:53, 6 May 2009 (BST)

I like all your ideas. The last one, I think, is a really good idea, because not only does it make things easier, but it also promotes aesthetic quality and uniformity, which I think is very important. CITIZEN VI 18:27, 6 May 2009 (BST)

I tried something here -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  18:43, 6 May 2009 (BST)

Damn! You guys are quick...I was just thinking about something like this. Also, I agree aesthetic quality and uniformity is very important. I took to doing something simpler than knitting together 7 crops, I screencapped the area around the scout point and then just manually added the numbers see Wykewood and image below

but the template idea is really interesting to me--Dr Mycroft Chris 21:05, 6 May 2009 (BST)

Bad artists copy. Great artists steal. I used a modified Suburb Plan and used extra code for the zombie numbers. It's still a long way to a useful template. I used location code from 11 (top left) to 77 (bottom right), so maybe the template should be used like {{TemplateName|zed11=33|zed12=9|zed55=6712}}, would that be easy enough? -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  21:23, 6 May 2009 (BST)

Well I just did it for The Hayler Building. Check out if that's okay, look at the wiki code you need to edit to update. Basically you edit the Scout Report section and fill in user and zedXY=n values, that's it. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  09:47, 10 May 2009 (BST)

KEEP Of course this means some work ahead for us but it is a much neater appearance. What do we do for each suburb's wiki page? Establish our own section there? or on the scout point's building page? --Dr Mycroft Chris 18:40, 13 May 2009 (BST)

Great! Just made one for Mare Towers (Rolt Heights). Other question: do Scout reports count towards your Necronet scan score? --Itsacon 16:45, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

More Tours of Duty

We could possibly combine East and West Becktown, a total of 7 Necrotech facilities, and North and South Blythville, for a total of 5 Necrotech facilities.--ChuckWade87 14:12, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

That's certainly possible. --Mobius

Updating Old Scans Ribbon

Maybe also Assignments or "Missions". If a suburb or two are really, really outdated, NecroWatch offers an assignment to "go to suburb XYZ and update all scans, report back if done". Whoever volunteers first has 7(14?) days to complete this assignment and report back. Completing Assignments may also earn special ribbons. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  19:41, 31 March 2009 (BST)

I think that this is a fine idea and an easy to one to accomplish. For example, when I was away from the game and returned in Feb '09, no one had updated the scans in Penny Heights' Rothwell NT since August...that's right, August of '08. This ribbon would be one of the easiest to get. Call it the "NT Reviver" kind of like the Ghost Ribbon but...oh! I got it..."The Flying Dutchman!" Always chasing the ghost NT buildings that never appear operational--Dr Mycroft Chris 10:23, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Now how did we move from more tour of duty ribbons (via combined suburbs) to chasing down NT buildings with old scans? This gets its own section. ;)

In my opinion there are usually two types of ribbon medals, the kind that was set in stone (i.e. the Blackmore Watchkeeper) and those "situational" ribbons that require proof the task was accomplished (i.e. Ghost Recon). Both require set rules, but especially in the case of situational ribbons, otherwise you may find out the ribbon's requirements were interpreted incorrectly. In this case it would make sense to possibly have a ribbon where you need to locate one or more NTs which have not had their scan image(s) updated within an extended period of time. As we already have Ghost Recon, which has a similar requirement, I would suggest the one for this ribbon have a much larger period... 6 months perhaps? An NT that hasn't been reported to in such a long period needs an update, and a ribbon would be the reward. Possibly the ribbon could have ranks, as suggested by Dr Mycroft for the "Most Crowded Scan". For example, 1 new scan (to replace a 6-month old scan) would give you the base-level bronze ribbon, >10 scans earns the silver ribbon, >20 scans earns the gold ribbon. That, or bars to signify ranks. --Mobius 16:17, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Just out of curiosity, when is an old scan replaced by the "missing" scan gif picture? -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  18:00, 6 April 2009 (BST)

Officially? We originally set it to 6 months. That was due to the fact that we had fewer hands on deck at the time and didn't want to be constantly viewing static. ;)

However that deadline could be shortened if we decide that we are providing scan more often. However, will that mess with your scan recon map? Since when a static scan is placed the signature often is updated, which might fool your template into thinking the scan was updated. Of course I have not examined your template closely, but I'm assuming that's how it works. If that's the case it might be better to leave it at 6 months and aim to have NecroTechnicians update the scan before then... still, it's debatable. --Mobius 15:14, 7 April 2009 (BST)

My script only cares about the Signature of the last scan to determine age. As static has no Signature with a timestamp, it assumes 90 days age for calculation and reports "90 days or older", but this can be changed. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  07:02, 8 April 2009 (BST)

So what you're saying is if we blank the signature when a static scan is placed then it will default to 90 days? That works. We would only need to express upon everyone to not sign the template if they place the static, but rather either leave the old signature or delete it altogether (i.e. leave it blank). --Mobius 13:11, 8 April 2009 (BST)

Discussions: Improvements & Issues

If you're interested in NecroWatch, are full of new ideas or perhaps want to discuss existing ones, this is the place to do it. Here users can also post about any issues they've encountered, in the hopes of working out fixes. As always post the more current topics at the top of this section.

NecroWatch "Hub" Page

Hallo again. I've been thinking about ways to put Alka's excellent scan age map in a more useful and obvious place -- I wanted to put it on the main page somehow, but I don't think that's going to work -- and this is what I've come up with. The idea is to have a page that serves as a place for useful-information-type-things that neurotic wiki-haunters like ourselves can check easily, and also as a place to communicate with other NW contributors (A good example of stuff that could go there is messages like "Scouting Reports for suburbs without NTs", "Quarlesbank", and "Gone Fishing"). I thought, if people liked the idea, and once we've fleshed it out a bit, we could add it to the main index in place of the NT Index page, which is pretty useless and outdated at this point. So what do you think? Any ideas for improvement? Hate the idea? It's all very liquid at this point. (PS: Feel free to try out the shoutbox or to mess around a bit with the code; just try not to break anything ;) ) CITIZEN VI 01:01, 4 May 2009 (BST)

I love the Shoutbox idea, I remember looking days for a genny and when I finally found one, another one from NecroWatch already powered the building. Using some means of communication can help. Especially with dangerous repairs. Maybe I could change my watch script so another section of this page will be updated with "news", like 12:34, 5 April 2009 (BST): East Becktown changed status from old to recent -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  06:51, 4 May 2009 (BST)

That would be really cool. I did actually want to have some news feeds or something similar along a margin somewhere to give the page a bit more weight. CITIZEN VI 15:47, 5 May 2009 (BST)

There is a link to an NT status map from the Suburb map page but I like yours better because it "brands" it as belonging to us here at NecroWatch. News Feed? Love it! We may have to eventually redo the Nav Bar to include all this stuff.--Dr Mycroft Chris 16:59, 6 May 2009 (BST)

Yeah, I like that style a lot (Stole it from the amazing Alka -- great work, mate). Does anyone have any ideas for other stuff to put on the page? When you come onto the wiki, what pages to you check as a matter of course? CITIZEN VI 17:40, 6 May 2009 (BST)

Hey, um, what do you think of the NW nav bar on that page? Specifically the way I've formatted the letter headings for suburb pages? I think it's quite an improvement over the current style, which to me looks pretty messy. CITIZEN VI 14:50, 12 May 2009 (BST)

KEEP ...very much an improvement, let's implement it immediately!--Dr Mycroft Chris 18:36, 13 May 2009 (BST)

OK, and the Hub? What do you all think? I notice some of you are still updating the index page, so... CITIZEN VI 17:55, 16 May 2009 (BST)

My vote is let's just put the changes into effect and see what happens; we can always change, modify, alter, delete anything if it just doesn't work. Nothing is really cast in stone around here. Re:Your earlier question about where do I navigate when I come to NecroWatch? Here, mostly, and then updating my scans count.--Dr Mycroft Chris 00:17, 17 May 2009 (BST)

Redesign NecroWatch

By now many of you are familiar with the look and feel of the NecroWatch wikipages. However I would like to take a moment to propose a somewhat radical shift in the current design/layout. As you all know the current theme of the wikipages is a camo-green background, with shades of lighter green and banners which use a dark burgundy. Interspaced on each wikipages are A.L.I.C.E. template talk boxes. Then there is the NT Index wikipage. The theme on this wikipage is best described as "old school computer". What I am suggesting is recomposing the entire NecroWatch so that its style is similar to that of the NT Index wikipage (black background with neon-orange Courier text). I was also planning to keep the A.L.I.C.E template talk boxes, but reformatting them to give them the look of a pop-up box on top of the "window". Obviously this is just the early stages and I wish to get a general consensus on what everyone else thinks about this kind of change. Should we do this, or should we leave it "as is"? --Mobius 15:26, 7 April 2009 (BST)

Ah, oo, I have to say I really like the pages as they are. I've always thought they were some of, if not the best looking pages on the wiki. I guess the old school terminal style isn't really my thing. Of course, it's your project, so whatever you want to do... VI 00:50, 8 April 2009 (BST)

Thanks for your input. --Mobius 13:08, 8 April 2009 (BST)

Same here. These pages are absolutely great as they are. Easy to read, mostly, and beautiful to look at. The "Old School Computer" look is, in my opinion, ideal for "data entry" and gives me a feeling of nostalgia, but I wouldn't use that for the entire site. I used to do ad design for a newspaper for a few years; things like readability, font, layout, color are important considerations to me. You did an amazing job with how they are now, I wouldn't want to lose that. The only critique I would have is that in areas that have large amounts of text, it should be made easier to read; Not enough contrast e.g. Resources.--Dr Mycroft Chris 02:38, 9 April 2009 (BST)

Not sure how Ribbons or the rank stars will fit in the Console/DOS Window style. I played a bit with the idea here, and found that Courier bold is a good font (not Courier New, it is not monospaced on all systems, on my Linux Box at work for example it is not). Still have no idea how to create ranking tables with that style, or a recon/scan map. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  13:32, 8 April 2009 (BST)

Your pages are: Fucking. Awesome. Do nothing to rectify this. That is all.

Ok, ok. In seriousness, your page styling is great and the theme is also great (Nothing like an ALICE dialogue to brighten up the day) You just need to do a basic tweaks, like the contrast thing Chris mentioned. Finding something to break up the text-based wall of doom that is your FAQ would also be nice. --  RoosterDragon  03:15, 9 April 2009 (BST)

In reference to the contrast comments, yes the black on dark green does have some issues mostly due to the large quantities of text involved. One way this could be resolved would be for me to use a lighter shade of green for the background colour. As I'm at work and my PhotoShop is in a far away land right now... I shall have to wait on this, but anyone else who wants to suggest a HEX code for the new background colour is free to do so. Keep in mind that we probably don't one want so light that there is no real contrast between the background and our "table background green".

In reference to the FAQ text wall, I'll try a few ideas there too. Mayhaps I'll try placing them in tables... --Mobius 14:09, 9 April 2009 (BST)

MUCH nicer, Thanks!--Dr Mycroft Chris 14:04, 10 April 2009 (BST)

Things To Do?

Hey all! With Alka burning up the maps and with my field guide nearing completion, I wanted to post something about some changes I'd propose for the NecroWatch pages and stuff. Let's talk about it.

1. Changes to the NecroWatch menu bar. I made a new one here that makes some minor formatting changes and adds "resources" to the main nav bar. However, my wiki-fu failed me a little and I have no idea why the black background behind the NW logo doesn't extend the length of the nav bar. You'll see.
2. Creation of NecroWatch/Resources. What I think we ought to do is move the instructions for taking and posting scans to Resources, along with an include for the Recon Map and the Field Guide. That leaves the FAQ page to act solely as the FAQ, rather than part FAQ and part instruction manual.
3. Update the FAQ. There are one or two questions that were asked here on our talk page (I'm mostly thinking of the "do you defend NTs?") that should find their way into the FAQ, I think.
4. Move Alka's recon map from his user space to Templates. It's done, so it should be in the Template namespace.
5. Move ALICE's "test" to somewhere more noticable in the NW space, so more people see it.

So... What do you think? ~ extropymine ^{Talk | NW | 4Corners} 20:15, 29 March 2009 (BST)

1. -> Fixed your Navbar (a bit) by using width=100% for the inner table.
2. -> Well i'm new but I'm also experienced user, programmer and gamer - Most people by chance will be not. We need step-by-step instructions how to update scans, reminder to also update building status, and instructions for this. Also, tell new people what they can (but by no means have to) do - posting news etc. If someone don't want to post news, maybe make a queue for "News to write", so not everybody need to watch all NTscan: namespace pages.
3. -> No comments on the FAQ as i'm too new around
4. -> Yep, don't think I will do more work on this, except when suggestions come in.

-- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  22:44, 29 March 2009 (BST)

I checked a couple of those items off the list. As for ALICE's test, well, that's fine where it is... for people to find or not. That's part of the fun. Also, feel free to include your new FAQ's here for review. --Mobius 02:30, 30 March 2009 (BST)

I'm bringing the "Things to do" stuff up again. Mobius left for fishing (...) so now we have a big gap missing. He did a lot for NecroWatch, updating scan counts for people who didn't do it themselfs, posting news, etc. Either the remaining active people take over now, or we try to automate stuff a lot. For example, a script could look at the uploaded scanimages every 24 hours and note difference, updating scancounts for users automatically, determining ribbons and creating a recon map for every member. Thoughts, ideas? -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  08:53, 26 April 2009 (BST)

If you can create scripts...sign me up. I have no idea about that sort of stuff and do not have the time to manually track down each and every change to make sure things are up-to-the-minute done. On that note, I would like to suggest that we also clean up this page to make it easier to navigate. God help the poor newbie trying to get an understanding of what goes on around here. BTW, glad we resolved the other stuff about Recruitment.

Also, I am working on the new ribbon designs. If no one has any reservations, I figure we can just posto-facto approve the ribbon suggestions and clear that area out.--Dr Mycroft Chris 13:51, 26 April 2009 (BST)

No problems with that. I am a programmer and can write scripts, but I'm terrible with Artwork. I'll think about a way to get scancounts automatically. Also, i should register a second account for those Botscripts, maybe i should register A.L.I.C.E. :D -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  18:03, 26 April 2009 (BST)

I have some skill with artwork, should it be required. CITIZEN VI 05:01, 27 April 2009 (BST)

Thanks, I may hold you to that...LOL!--Dr Mycroft Chris 11:49, 28 April 2009 (BST)

CITIZEN VI brought up a good point and I'm on it. Soon the NecroWatch Scan Age script will change NT Buildings with scans older than 45 days to static. In theory, this already works, but I like to test my scripts a bit before unleashing the beast on the wiki. Next step would be auto-counting of new scans so nobody needs to edit their scores. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  22:14, 4 May 2009 (BST)

Thank you so much. This is absolutely brilliant. CITIZEN VI 15:19, 5 May 2009 (BST)

The beast was unleashed. The Script now runs as NWBot. Images will be set to Missing if the scan is 60 days or older. Now 60 days is also the maximum value reported, so Missing scans will be reported as "60 days or older". This has an effect on the scan age map, as color red is harder to reach for a suburb. Here you can see NWBots work. -- -Alka Selzer- ^{[ Talk - Map - Stuff ]}  19:04, 5 May 2009 (BST)

Nice!--Dr Mycroft Chris 16:55, 6 May 2009 (BST)

NWBot issues?

I can't figure out, why NWBot in some cases removes images - for example here: User:NTScan/The_Veryard_Building - from 27 august by Ochozi. It's jpg, it's marked as jpg, there's correct time and date. . . so what's wrong? --Hermitek 14:42, 16 September 2009 (BST)

Don't know what to tell ya...but I will investigate--Dr Mycroft Chris 22:24, 26 September 2009 (BST)

Report NecroNet Scans

Do you have a NecroNet scan you're dying to share with NecroWatch? Too lazy/evil to update the it yourself? We understand, and in some cases, our sub-goal is to discourage people from thinking this job is easy so all our NecroTechnicians are treated almost like gods for performing actions that, without all the smoke and mirrors, are fairly straightforward. But rather than lose precious scan information we're stepping up to do the job for you. Just post a link to the iWitness report or image/screenshot with the scan. Be sure to date it, or else your timestamp will be considered the date/time the scan was taken. In the case of iWitness reports we use the provided MT (Malton Time). You will of course be given credit for any and all scans you post here. How awesome is that? No, don't think about it! Just believe us. Excellent.

Actually you don't need to worry about posting the reports here, if you are already updating the scans for the individual NT buildings.

Bored? Or maybe you just want to help clean-up the NecroWatch Talk wikipage. Either way, if a post thread is more than 6 months old then it deserves to be moved to the Archive. Feel free to do so yourself. It's a free world after all, and if there is one thing I support, that's freedom.
