Template

Do you want Template:Urgggggggh/template deleted? You cleared the content and the naming is really ... funky. Please post it on A/SD if you want it deleted. --– Nubis NWO 18:40, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

if you dont mind ill keep it, im still teaching myself how to code wiki templates etc. and so use it as a test page so I dont screw up the pages I already made. Gimie a yell if thats a problem. Urgggggggh 00:47, 21 January 2009 (UTC)

Boo

I did indeed. Promptly killed it dead the second I saw it. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 17:56, 24 December 2008 (UTC)


I saw your comment on Project Mentor

You've actually done quite a good job. Anything you particularly wanted help with? IN game advice, whatever. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 12:37, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

not really. Where's your group based these days? Do you have a home suburb, because i know a zombie group who could really do with some PKing allies. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:12, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
The Zed part of the RDD is based around Millen Hills and we have a couple of decently levelled PKers scattered around there, but we've also got a bunch of Survivors trainee's down south near Locketside. If that helps, get your guys to contact us on the clan page, leave a message here (or with the boss Misanthropy) as we're more than happy to team up with like-minded evil folk. --Urgggggggh 15:39, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Hey hey

I finally got around to making a User Account here. I'm editing it and reading up on Wiki code. Goribus 10:53, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Heh. I found a fair number of the templates that I liked. I had to add them to my characters and my page where applicable. I'll be putting that RDD one to use for my main accounts. Goribus 21:11, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Sweet. That Zed translator will help things out. I've actually used a different one to run translations. I'm no where as fluent as you but between working it out phonetically and using guides I'm sure we can figure out Zed communication. It'll be awhile before Skull Grin can talk though. I want IB before I get Memories of Life. I might get the Scent skills (or at least some of them) before Zed speech. Goribus 20:59, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Possible alliance Template?

Not trying to jump the gun or anything, just trying to see if it works...

Yeah, Malton just got fucked by the 80s.

{{Cobra/rdd|User=Malton}}


Gah, there's no apostrophe in 80s. Grammar makes Misanthropy sad. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 20:41, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
Corrected. Fucking pedants... lol Urgggggggh 20:59, 15 January 2009 (UTC)
I fucking love that! Hey Psych I'm going to PM you on NK with an image that we could use for this...Goribus 07:58, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Image Categories

Don't just remove all the categories from an image. All that does is stick it back in the uncategorised list and causes yet more work. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 11:26, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Then whoever categorised it should have done it correctly, but thanks for the update. Urgggggggh 08:40, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
I categorised it, and it was correct at the time of editing. -- To know the face of God is to know madness....Praise knowledge! Mischief! Mayhem! The Rogues Gallery!. <== DDR Approved Editor 12:22, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
Couldn't give a shit. It was wrong so i changed it. Urgggggggh 12:31, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Yo dawg

Acrimonious? Since when? For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 00:44, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

"This move is acrimonious and Psychout has stepped into his place". I are be confused. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 00:48, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Just seems weird, acrimonious means there was a falling out or something bitter. I'm gonna give you a wiki hug. For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee 00:51, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Just like you English to need an Irishman to teach you your own language. Also, while I'm here, you want me to knock together a sig for you? For hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee

Suggestion idea's that I've submitted...

Flaming Zombies

Suggested Here

Timestamp: Urgggggggh 19:30, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Type: Attack expansion.
Scope: All players and barricades
Description: Fire spreading from zombies attacked with Flare Gun/Fuel Can combo.


Zombies hit by the Flare Gun/Fuel Can attack combo and are not killed remain on fire (as 'flaming zombies') and are able to spread that fire to surrounding Survivors, Zombies and Barricades with a successful claw attack. Only 1 target can be ignited per successful attack. XP would be awarded at one payment of 2 per ignited survivor and 1 per zombie/barricade.

Flaming Zombies would take fire damage at 1HP per AP spent until dead, upon which they would burn out.

Ignited Survivors would take damage at 1HP per AP spent until dead or extinquished. Survivors would be extinguished by spending AP's rolling on the ground, being 'smothered' by other survivors or sprayed with a fire extinguisher (see below) or dying. The ignited target is unable to spread the fire further.

Ignited Zombies would take damage at 1HP per AP spent until dead and is able to spread the fire as above.

Ignited Barricades are 15% easier to smash down until rebuilt back to Heavy or higher level (non-flammable materials).


This would also require the introduction of Fire Extingishers as a item in most buildings; Fort, Hospital, Fire Station and Police Department 5%; Malls, Clubs, Hotel, Public Houses 3%; everywhere else 1%.

Discussion (Flaming Zombies)

in detail

Although rare, Zombies can be blown to hell by the flaregun/fuel can combo. As Zombies dont feel pain, or even know they are on fire, if the explosion doesn't kill them they should be able to finish their actions unhindered whilst still alight. This would cost 1HP per AP used, the same as an infection kills a survivor.

With a successful attack the Flaming Zed would be able to ignite other Zombies or Survivors and set barricades on fire to weaken them and raise the chances of them being smashed. Only 1 target can be ignited per turn and it would not spread beyond that target, but if the Flaming Zombie has actions left, then it can spend another AP igniting someone else.

Damage to Survivor or Zombie target would be 1HP per AP spent, as infection, but would cease once the target is dead.

Damage to Barricades would raise the chance of successful smashing by 10% unless a survivor 'rebuilds' the barricade to a non-flammable level (EHB?) to stop the fire.


This attack would only be possible whilst the Zed was still alive and would burn out after the zombie loses all HP or is killed.

(Logically, this should affect generators as well but they should explode, however as AoE dmage is not allowed then this idea is discounted at present.)

Discussion so far to allow for refinement

That's actually pretty amusing. =p -- Cheese 23:11, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Seems like a lot of work to implement... Faranya 23:55, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

No. Read the FAQ's please. This is a multi-suggestion, and shouldn't be made. This is a suggestion that solves no problems, adds nothing to the game, and is over complicated with no gain. - tylerisfat 03:02, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

I did read the FAQ, it has nothing that says this type of action/idea is illegal, but please explain 'multi suggestion'. If this is about the extinguishers then their inclusion here is common sense and part of the effect. And the gain is both flavour and pseudo-realism; a zombie set alight by petrol and wasn't killed by the explosion wouldn't just 'go out', it would continue to burn and everyone knows that fire spreads. Urgggggggh 10:32, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Err, I'm not sure why i said it that way. I get on here late at night. What i meant is, you are not adding anything good, or addressing a current problem, but instead creating a problem and a not very good solution that involves new items. These suggestions are regularly spammed. - tylerisfat 13:00, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not sure what Tylerisfat means by this being a "multi-suggestion" but the main flaw is that zombies CANNOT put out the flames themselves.--Pesatyel 08:56, 29 December 2008 (UTC)

Why would they? A zombie wouldn't even notice it was on fire :) I see your point though, would it work better if a survivor could extinguish a flaming zed? Urgggggggh 10:32, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Well, it's more for balance than realism - it seems rather annoying to have to force a zombie to die to put out the fire, especially without Ankle Grab. Regarding the multi-suggestion thing, it's because this tries to introduce too many things at once. Whether this is more than one suggestion lumped together is a bit debatable (I personally think that it is), but at the very least it's certainly too complicated. Plus, I'm pretty sure that fire is one of the things we're not supposed to suggest, especially fire that can spread - the potential for it going out of control is pretty high. -- User:Ashnazg 0452, 30 December 2008 (GMT)
I realized that it was a new event/skill/whatever AND a new item. But I think exceptions like this are a necessity. The only other thing I can think off off the top of my head would be that a flaming person would set off the sprinklers if inside, thereby partially negating the requirement of a fire extinguisher.--Pesatyel 05:11, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Ashnazg; If we cant have fire in the game, why do we even have the 'Fireman' class? Fire that spreads once should be considered, after all, what zombie film doesn't have a fire in it somewhere? Also, this cant be any more annoying than being infected as a beginning survivor can it?, at least this will go away after you die. Urgggggggh 11:54, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

Yes it IS more annoying then an infected newbie survivor. Newbie survivors can HEAL THEMSELVES or GET HEALED BY OTHERS.--Pesatyel 03:50, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
Setting a zombie on fire is definitely more annoying for the zombie than for a newbie survivor. Regarding firemen in the game, this suggestion does nothing to make them any more useful either (and no, please don't start allowing only firemen to extinguish fires). They are there mostly to have someone that can start by using a fire axe. And yeah, of course zombie films have fire. But trying to introduce something into the game for flavour without taking balance into account is a no-no. Want to introduce fire? Sure, go ahead. But make sure it is a balanced, controllable, non-griefy type of fire rather than something like this, which is not only difficult to implement but also has great potential for griefing people and growing out of control. See the case of the World of Warcraft plague a few years back for why status effects that spread uncontrollably from person to person should not be introduced into games. I mean, fire like this could allow the whole of Malton to be swarmed by flaming zombies setting each other aflame left and right in order to break down barricades more easily and burn survivors. Basically the whole city would go down in flames. Which actually sounds pretty awesome, but would screw up the game completely. -- User:Ashnazg 0422, 31 December 2008 (GMT)

A flaming zombie is a very dangerous thing... And a fun idea. However, as others have pointed out it's very difficult to implement something like that in a way that isn't over the top and griefy. Multiply it by a million, eh? --WanYao 12:31, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Cool and all but probably not the best idea. Yeah infection sucks but I don't think we need a second form of it that only survivors can trigger, that would be a way for Survivors to temporarily buff zombies and runs into the problem of encouraging cross-play of the two sides. It should be survivors vs zombies not survivors vs survivors and zombies(no this is not what Death Culting is).--Karekmaps?! 12:50, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
