Talk:5th of November/2012

Dangermap Gallery

I don't know what Johnny's initial plan was for the gallery, but I think it would be better to have a separate image for each update so that we can see how the suburb changed over the course of this 5th of November event. --Klexur 02:21, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

So... what, just save as a different file name? -Charles Whipplebotum 02:58, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Unfortunately I couldn't find an easy way to link to previous versions of image files through the wiki. I went ahead and reverted the image and re-uploaded your newer one. --Klexur 03:31, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Klexur is right, that was my plan indeed :) PB&J 09:45, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Consider uploading them at higher resolutions so you will have more options down the road (like if you want to make a movie for example.) -MHSstaff 17:00, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I know what you are thinking Johnny Twotoes

You are thinking about staying at that old Blackmore place and reviving your friends. I came here to talk ya out of it. What you are thinking of doing, Johnny, it has been done before. Old man V tried it in 2006. And in 2007. And in 2008. And in 2009. And in 2010. He tried to bring ’em all back. But sometimes Johnny, what you revive ain’t what comes back. It might look like a real-life thinkin’ person but it’s not Johnny. It’s a Level 43 survivor. Sometimes Johnny, undead is better. Undead is better. -MHSstaff 17:00, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Yeah, you're scaring me :P Anyway, this wasn't really my idea but I like where it is heading, and as an Assistant Instructor at the Academy, it's a great way for our cadets to meet new people ;) PB&J 18:46, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

PS: nice reference, took me a while to recognize it (and I didn't want to look up the link you provided, felt like cheating)

I was hoping you would catch the reference! -MHSstaff 19:44, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Hey Rookie…

Yeah, you wearing the Creedy tags. Come over here.

Feeling a little nervous? I know man, I know. I know exactly what is going through your mind. You are thinking “Man, if we don’t take this suburb, humanity is totally f*cking screwed.”

Don’t worry man. We’ve all been there. That’s why before these big “Final Penultimate Survivor Victory” events, I like to use something to take the edge off, to give me that extra boost I need to power through to victory.

Synthetic human growth hormone.

I’m talking a 30% increase in fast-twitch muscle response. I’m talking unparalleled muscle growth. I’m talking like 0 to EHB in two seconds. How does that sound Rook?

I thought you’d like that. Just imagine, when those zeds come through, lighting up your Windows 7 Box like a Christmas tree, you’ll be ready, mashing that barricade and attack buttons until there is nothing left but a bunch of dumped corpses and some stunned onlookers thinking “Man, I didn’t know you could do that on a browser-based MMO game.”

That’s right Rook. You’ll save your group. You’ll save humanity. And you’ll get the girl.

Drug tests? What if you get caught using PEDs?

Man, don’t worry about it. I got you covered. This shit is totally undetectable by Kevan’s mandatory, post-event drug tests. It’ll just be our little secret. So, Rook? How about it? Think about it, and when you are ready to take your game to the next level, we'll talk. -MHSstaff 19:42, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I'm here now

The place looks ridiculously repaired. --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 20:43, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Why would it be repaired? I mean, this doesn't start until the 5th right? Right? -MHSstaff 20:52, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I just wanted to eat someone. --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 21:34, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I know! I just got headshot by a brainrotted survivor. Why? Why do they hate us? We are soft and cuddly and non-violent and stuff!-MHSstaff 21:39, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I can't even open doors. The beastly harmans! --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 21:43, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Part of me is actually considering coming outside for a big group hug... PB&J 21:44, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Whatever hater. Do you remember how we welcomed you into our suburb, and then you locked us out of our homes and said we couldn't come in and murder you? I thought you cared about us. And you want to throw it all that away? Just because you want to go on breathing? Meanie. -MHSstaff 21:55, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

I know why you're here, MHS. I know what you've been doing... why you hardly sleep, why you live alone, and why night after night, you sit by the ruins. You're looking for it. I know because I was once looking for the same thing. And when I found it, it told me I wasn't really looking for it. I was looking for an answer. It's the question that drives us, MHS. It's the question that brought you here. You know the question, just as I did. PB&J 21:58, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Its alright. I got inside. Tried to give Jonny a hug, but these claws are next to useless. --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 21:59, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

So that was you? Too kind, too kind ;) PB&J 22:01, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

All about the personal service. --Ross Less Ness ^{Enter Stranger...} 22:16, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

A little trigger happy are we? Contrary to Roddy's assertation, I am not "here to PK". In fact I had spent half a dozen AP just an hour previous on cades. I have prayed feverently to Rando, her will is clear. I shall defend Blackmore until my dying breath. And in death, I will follow my instincts. On which side will you have me standing, defenders of Blackmore? James Slimm 22:21, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Ridleybank has already been repaired...

Ridleybank is repaired and you still want me to bring revive syringes and generators? F*ck that. I am bringing my shotgun. I'm the sexiest thing ever to happen to UrbanDead. I bet I can clean up this whole city with just twenty shells and my rock hard abs. And even if I can't, it doesn't really matter. Because I'm going to look great doing it.

God damn. Did you see how I blew that head off that one zed? It exploded like a f*cking watermelon. Yeah that safehouse just got overrun but who cares. I just crushed two zombies with my bulging pecs. Damn. I am sexy. I bet you want me. I bet you want me right now.

Shit. Did zombies just drag Susan screaming out into the street? Don't worry Susan. Those aren't screams of pain. Those are screams of desire. God she looks great. I bet she is watching me right now dive off this skyscraper into that horde below. Oh man. Did you see how I blew up those six zeds with a flare gun? God I am one sexy beast.

Damn. They killed Susan. Well, that's ok. You can't save everyone when you are trying to look good. Look, this isn't a war. This is about the future of humanity. Revive queues? Lame. Metastrategy? Lamer. Safehouses? What is this, My Little Zombie Pony? Look, Malton isn't going to save itself. It needs people like me. People who are sexy enough to grab a shotgun and look great shooting it. Your safehouse got overrun? Yeah, well, deal with it and be glad that you were lucky enough to watch me in action. I am liquid sex.

Look, I don't care about your plan. If it doesn't involve looking good on top of a pile of shotgun-blasted corpses, I don't want to hear it. I am not doing this for you. I am doing this for me, and for all the little kids who are tired of dealing with lame-ass groups who don't know the first thing about shotguns and looking good while shooting shotguns. I'll be over by the Rodgers Building. Let me know when you are serious about making a difference. -MHSstaff 21:03, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Not that I don't appreciate a good reference left and right, but please don't clutter the talk page with it ;) Thank you. PB&J 21:05, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

:(-MHSstaff 21:08, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Try them ingame? Pretty sure those speeches would look nice in the middle of a cade breach ;) PB&J 21:09, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

:( :( :( :(. Have fun with your event! It looks awesome! -MHSstaff 21:11, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Why all the sad faces? Just join us, breathing or undead, all are welcome :P PB&J 21:15, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

This is as much our event as it is yours, and you're in our home (which you'd do well to remember), so we'll comment creatively here as much as we like, thank you very much. --TWO HEADED SEX BEAST 21:19, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Seeing as it was a tough decision to choose between my survivor and my RRF alt for this event, yeah, I'll try and keep that in mind... PB&J 21:24, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Have fun with it then, enjoy it whilst it lasts. I know I did when I sieged Blackmore as a survivor in 2010 (whilst also a member of the RRF). But we didn't tell have the gall to the RRF not to post on a talk page, or not contribute their thoughts and opinions or writing, because... we're all part of the same event, just on different sides, and this creative back and forth is what helps make the siege more fun than if it was just some dour game mechanics based grind-fest. And I frankly love MHSstaff's writing). --TWO HEADED SEX BEAST 21:36, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Pretty sure I was polite and didn't really obstruct the creative back and forth here? I thought MHS and me were on the same page here, not sure if that's the case, but if not: I apologize. :) As I said, I love that stuff as much as the next guy, but it's something best savored in limited quantitites at a time, to make them more memorable. Considering "having the gall to tell the RRF not to post on a talk page", that just never happened... PB&J 21:40, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Winka Memorial Page

Since you guys took Blackmore in memory of Winka, might be worthwhile to save screenshots of that, especially if you did a dedication in game to her memory for Marcel's page. -MHSstaff 21:28, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Not a bad idea, I'll see what I can get my hands on ;) PB&J 21:34, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Definitely do if you can, especially if it is written well and in a format that her family could appreciate. -MHSstaff 21:36, 4 November 2012 (UTC)

Of course :) PB&J 21:41, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
