Infecting others at RP's

A no-no? --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 12:08, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

Let's put it to a vote. All in favor, say "Aye". --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 18:06, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Can I say "Nay" if I disagree? --Colette Hart 04:54, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Let it happen. 05:02, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

"Eye" - Yer bad breath don't scare me. I'll just bring along some tic-tacs. ~ 07:37, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Obvious no-no, imo, because it's essentially the same as attacking at RPs. I could lower you to 1hp, only to have you killer by some trench really easy. Attacking at rps is stupid.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 08:39, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

-As I said before, Nay. Cheap tactic, and not very polite... --Colette Hart 00:09, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

I say nay as well --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 00:10, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

As Vapor, I use FAKs after standing up anyway so infection doesn't mean much. I agree it's kinda lame, but I'll say Aye to avoid adding another rule. I don't like rules. --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 02:01, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

I'm against RP infection so Nay--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆◆/CAPD 01:29, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

It seems to me the Nays have it. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 20:20, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes. Just not at revive points. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 13:14, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

The Rogues Gallery

At present the DEM doesn't hate me. Or the character I intend to use, anyway. I'd like to keep it that way. Will kills be logged on the RG? --Espemon333 02:29, 7 March 2011 (UTC)

only if some idiot reports you. none of the contestants will do it. but there might be some goody two shoes in a building when you murder someone for the manhunt. par for course man--

bitch 02:35 7 March 2011 (UTC)

They won't usually take it then either. Axe usually lets the RG know who's competing. It's only happened once in the past (before axe started letting them know) and the report didn't go through as it was a part of the hunt then.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆◆/CAPD 04:46, 9 March 2011 (UTC)

The RG now has a list of all contestants (at least, those who are currently signed up. I might have to send them an updated version if someone signs up within the next hour...) --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 22:48, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Heads Up

People, I've just changed the contestant Im using in the Manhunt, It's ObiCop.--Obi ^{+ Talk!|TZH|MDK} 12:38, 10 March 2011 (UTC)

Likewise, add Susan Popham instead of Julie. --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 20:56, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

Question

Regarding the rule "You may not enlist the help of anyone not involved in this Manhunt. (ie: Broadcasting on the radio that one of the contestant is KOS.)", does that include Mrh?ing for revives or asking for FAKs?--Penguinpyro 02:06, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

No. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 11:35, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Start/End time clarification

Since I am guessing that the competition will start as soon as the clock rolls over to the 20th, I just wanted to clarify whose clock we are talking about here. Will the starting and ending date of this event be determined by UD time?

-- Albert Schwan  22:03, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

That's right. Server reset, which runs under UTC if I'm not mistaken. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:37, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

It's GMT right now, but I think the server will switch to BST on the 27th. I've always thought easiest is to use wiki time. So wiki edit timestamps are always in manhunt time. --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 00:06, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Right. I forgot British times haven't swap over for Daylight Savings yet. Go with wiki time, Al. That'll be your best bet. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:12, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Which is server time anyway, only easy to check :)

(pay attention on that Sunday, you get 2 extra APs at 1 AM :D) --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 00:16, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Wait...If the clock is moving forward, wouldn't we be losing 2AP instead of gaining? O.o? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:24, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

I suspect it's implemented like so: (1) the game stores your AP and a timestamp along with your character, and (2) whenever you refresh, if the current time is 30 mins or more ahead of the stored timestamp, then your character's AP and timestamp are updated appropriately. This would explain why the exact minute your AP regenerates is different than everyone else's.

Thus, what I think happens is: you login at 0:59, the game gives you your accumulated AP up to that time. You reload 1 minute later, but now is 2:00, so the game computes it's been 60 minutes and change, so it duly gives you 2 more AP. Conversely, on 30th October, it'll be a full hour (from 1:59 BST) where you won't gain any AP.

All this being just an educated guess of what really goes on, of course :") --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 23:59, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

This wiki really needs to document something like this...After someone tests the theory, of course. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:48, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Oh I know it happens, tested it last year, was only lucubrating here why it may happen.

But yeah, come to think of it, good time to confirm it and document it. --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 03:23, 18 March 2011 (UTC)

Silly question

Kill reports and accompanying screenshots are to be provided as they are accumulated on the talk page of this event or elsewhere? Any guidelines to the format of reports? Also, I assume Dumwit shots are adequate?

-- Albert Schwan  21:14, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Yup yup. Even better would be a Rolf Harris original painting of the event, but well... he's kinda in a bit of a bad shape atm. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD |

 

21:48, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Dumwits and other witness systems are acceptable. As for other guidelines, you may, if you got a manual screenshot, censor the screenshot of the location, but only enough censorship to allow other contestants to figure out where the kill took place (with a bit of thinking and work, at least!) Alternatively, using the game's "Out of AP" screen is an acceptable censorship format, but you must really be out of AP when you got the kill. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:29, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

The shooting back clause yet again

I propose this addition to the rules: if a character who is not competing in the manhunt kills a competitor, that character becomes a valid target for all competitors, a legal kill for scoring purposes.

For people who didn't play RITA: back then a number of players tried to disrupt the manhunt by killing the competitors. They did accomplish that a few competitors became distracted engaging them, rather than focusing on fellow hunters, thus reducing the number of kills in the manhunt proper and arguably detracting from the main spectacle. So the rationale for this suggestion is simply to make it so that attempts from third parties to disrupt the competition end up adding to the show instead.

I proposed this last time and got shot down, but I'd like to do it again now that the hunt hasn't started, so it doesn't end up being a change of the rules in the midst of the event. Sorry for the short notice hey, I forgot until today. You think we can have a vote on this? --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 10:34, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

As one of those disrupting players, I'll confirm that we REALLY fucked up that manhunt :P But I have to disagree. In the unlikely event of it happening again, the players would be an environmental hazard, not a kill. For all we know, that player could be a self-righteous bounty hunter or a local of the area. Suddenly they kill a manhunter and there's another easy source of exp, someone who doesn't even realise that they're being targeted. It affects the score as well, boosting it to a higher amount than it should be. They're a hazard. The challenge for them is to be able to avoid them and yet still be able to kill other manhunters.

However, I'll change my vote to a pro if this clause ONLY activates in a event of repeated kills by the same user or group, all showing signs of coordination. Shadok ^{T Balance is power} 11:41, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Lulz fucked up the manhunt huh? Don't flatter yourself dude!

Hashk said:

I know of 11 confirmed kills from you, and 9 "team members". I know you sustained 6 deaths, all by (a tiny subset of) the All-Stars. So 1.22 average kills per member. All in all, Red Rum would have got 3rd place, slightly above RDD but well below Timmy's Band. I think RDD would have beat you, though, had you played by the rules (e.g. posting kills and staying inside the playing area).

So :P to you, :P

Anyroad, I truly don't see what's the difference if it's a lone righteous BHer, or a random PKer, or an organised bunch of either. They all know when you shoot people you get shot back, it's not as if I'm proposing killing random chaps who could honestly claim they didn't expect it. And what you mean "score higher than it should be"? There's never enough blood in a manhunt! :D

But well, I'm noticing a distinct lack of interest in this again, plus it may be too late for a vote anyway. Boo. --Sophie ^{◆◆◆ CAPD} 21:31, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

I've stressed this enough since AHMH1. If you don't want an innocent bystander to mistaken you for PKing for killing another contestant, give them a note and link 'em here. That said, it's about time I give the RG a list of the contestants... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 22:08, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

That's not what she's talking about Axe. Soph is talking about those individuals who deliberately interfere with the manhunt not as PKers or BHers but as trolls. Like those individuals who tried last time.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆◆/CAPD 22:49, 19 March 2011 (UTC)
