General Discussion

Please use this area or start a new topic at the bottom of the page for general discussion of the event.

Hm...

What is the exact starting date for this? At the top of this talk page, under rules, it says 25th, but under date, it says 15th. So which is it? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 17:53, 9 October 2010 (BST)

Should read 25th. Juz corrected it. v4por is a tard. --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 17:59, 9 October 2010 (BST)

Sorry for the confusion folks. The actual event will start at 12:01am GMT on October 25th. The October 15th date is there because there is a 10 day prep time. That time is there to allow everyone to get alive, healthy and well stocked. Any attacks or kills on any participants during that time will result in point deduction for your team. So technically speaking the event runs from 10-15 to 11-7, simply because your actions from 10-15 to 11-7 affect your team.

Now having said that and after observing the RitA event, I don't think this is going to be an issue. Everyone seems to be on an honor system and I haven't seen anyone break the code of honor so far. If you are attacked or killed by an opposing team member after 10-15, you may post here on the talk page and appropriate action will be taken. --~ 18:19, 9 October 2010 (BST)

Editing to add that after rechecking the dates of RitA, it looks like I'll need to extend the first day of prep to October 17th. Basically, after RitA ends on October 16th, there should be a cease fire to allow everyone the same amount of time to get ready for Red October. --~ 20:53, 10 October 2010 (BST)

Comms

How are teams gonna co-ord? Obese Twins have a DSS phone. We need to report sightings of enemy scum to each other. Any suggestions? What did players of RitA, and other manhunts, do? --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 00:14, 18 October 2010 (BST)

Members of the Red Army side are welcome to use RDD's IRC channel (#RDD on the Nexus server). Since RDD never fucking use it... 00:16, 18 October 2010 (BST)

I offer Organization XIII's forums to be used for the forum of the red army. Although, the board will be password protected since Zensaga is registered on it... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 17:30, 18 October 2010 (BST)

For the Red Army's benefits...A Forum! It's hidden and password protected, so you might want to send me a PM to adjust your settings to view the board as well as the password... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 17:38, 18 October 2010 (BST)

Fuck the stinky Red Army! How do I communicate with the rest of my White Army? --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 19:42, 21 October 2010 (BST)

RP Kills

This more of a statement of what seems to be generally accepted in Manhunt events than it is an addition to the rules. RP kills won't count towards your score. I don't care if you farm RPs for infections if that's your tactic just don't do any killing. --~ 23:14, 18 October 2010 (BST)

What does that mean? --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 00:04, 19 October 2010 (BST)

Which part? No killing at RPs means don't go hunting players waiting for a revive at an RP. Infection farming is when you go into an RP as a zed and infect other zeds so they have to waste FAKs and AP healing after being revived. It's kind of a cheap tactic IMO but I won't ban it. --~ 00:18, 19 October 2010 (BST)

Aha, thanks. Yeah, am gonna slay reds as they cower in the dark! Are there to be RPs, or will the reeves come find us when requested? Oh, and a map of the field - http://dssrzs.org/map/12-13-22-23 --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 00:25, 19 October 2010 (BST)

Revive Points. I'll post more about it once the reeves are in place and have chosen RPs which they will monitor. --~ 00:42, 19 October 2010 (BST)

I'm in Judgewood right now, the Ludlow Building. Most of EVIL are going through high school graduation exams atm so only a couple will be present, so I/We'll monitor the Wasteland that is 1NW to that (it's already an established RP so hopefully you won't even need my help if you go there, though you'll obviously get priority) -- LEMON #1 01:12, 19 October 2010 (BST)

I will likely hole up in Chudleyton near its single RP, Cemetery 12,23. I'll send an alt and whatever else help I can scrounge up to the other 2 suburbs. --~ 01:21, 19 October 2010 (BST)

Can victims be in zed form? I know we can't kill enemy humans while we're zed, but if while human we come across an enemy zed (not at an RP) and kill them, does that count? I saw human-killing-zed screenshots on the RitA page. --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 01:53, 19 October 2010 (BST)

Yes, kills against zed while a survivor will count as points. I had played around with the thought of making them half points but after some consideration decided that the idea was dumb. --~ 01:56, 19 October 2010 (BST)

On your mark, get set...

The event starts in a little under 48 hours from now. If you're not in or close to the playing field you should do so now. If you need a revive before the event starts, there are now reeves in place to take revive requests. Edbrooke Street in Darvall Heights, Cemetery 12,23 in Chudleyton, and Wasteland 16,15 are being monitored. We're trying to get someone up to Gatcombeton as well but revives there may be slow at first. I will make an announcement near the start of the event. Good luck to you all. --~ 01:22, 23 October 2010 (BST)

The MOB is going to win. --VVV ^RPMBG 01:31, 23 October 2010 (BST)

Yeah I've been watching. And they certainly do appear to be heading this way. Lets just think of them as pissed off landowners that just want us off their property. During the war, they called them the Green Army. Fitting, yeah? It will just be an added challenge. Hope everyone is on their game. --~ 04:32, 23 October 2010 (BST)

The green army were peasants, not landowners... And they were rebelling due to the famine and resultant increase in cannibalism. Somewhat more apt?--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 14:02, 23 October 2010 (BST)

Me dying in the first half hour

Not happenign this time. I have a fool proof strategy to avoid it.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 15:49, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Die red scum! --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 19:59, 24 October 2010 (BST)

So. This starts in approx 4 hours?

--Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 20:09, 24 October 2010 (BST)

90 mins from now... --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 22:27, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Wait, does it start at BST or GMT? Because that's massively important.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 22:46, 24 October 2010 (BST)

BST, as we're currently on BST in London. http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=136 Just over an hour from now. Think we change back to GMT next weekend --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 22:49, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Hmm, just noticed above Vap has said GMT, which is 1am BST. But maybe he means midnight UD server time, which would be BST. Or something. v4Pe!?? --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 22:51, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Fucking England. We aught to bring back Dublin Mean Time so I can be done with this nonsense. 22:56, 24 October 2010 (BST)

No, that's the wrong way round. UD server is GMT, and BST is 1am GMT. However, it changes TONIGHT, so we should really have some clarity on this.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 23:01, 24 October 2010 (BST)

It doesn't change tonight. There's still another week of WEST. 23:09, 24 October 2010 (BST)

WHAT IS WEST AND WHY ARE WE SHOUTING? Also, looked it up a minute ago and it said something about being the last sunday in October. Isn't that now? Unless October is a 31 day month... Then I got distracted by the Queen's Diamond jubillee, and I navigated away from the page.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 23:15, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Dear sheltered child. October 31st is usually considered quite a major holiday in the western world. There's fancy dress and drinking and free sweets and slutty nurses and Mis usually dresses as a dead celebrity. It's quite possible JFK this year. Point being, derp. 23:17, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Oct is a 31 day month. --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 23:16, 24 October 2010 (BST)

I figured UD server would be UK time, rather than GMT. So sometimes it would be GMT, sometimes BST. I wish we'd just leave the clocks alone, it's confusing, even for us English, let alone Irish moonshine-muddled brains... So, uh, what time does this start? And when do the stupid clocks change? --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 23:05, 24 October 2010 (BST)

I presume the clocks change at midnight, and then the time becomes one, or the other way around. And the wiki is BST, but the game (and the server reset) is GMT.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 23:07, 24 October 2010 (BST)

Damn, where's v4por when we need him?! --  ▧  ^{: : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :} 23:12, 24 October 2010 (BST)
