| ===Grandfathering of screenshots, please?===
| |
| "Screenshots will not be accepted as evidence due to difficulty cross-referencing for duplicates."
| |
|
| |
| Because I don't have an iwitness of LSvlad killing those three zambahz in a row. :( And that one ''really'' deserves to be recorded for posterity. --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 20:45, 19 September 2008 (BST)

|
| |
| :LSvlad was accepted, so screen caps ''have'' been grandfathered in, my friend. But it was exactly that really confusing batch of looong reports that made me say, "screw screen caps". See, with Iwitness I can just do a text search... With Iwitness I can pull up profile information with a click... I can cut and paste all the location text, etc. directly from the screenshot into the report. It's just so much more convienent and simple... Iwitness is also VERY easy to use. Just install the bookmarklet, and an Iwitness is 2 clicks away from any UD screen.
| |
|
| |
| :That being said... unofficially, I suppose I may allow "special dispensions" for screen caps, if it's all you've got. **le sigh** But I really do prefer Iwitnesses.

| ===Assaults===
| |
| Instead of assigning a full Ronin point for people attempting to kill a zombie outside, you could specify a secondary class of trenchy like Ronin in Training or Wannabe Ronin.--[[User:William Told|William Told]] 21:02, 19 September 2008 (BST)
| |
| :I do not like the idea of different classes or categories of Ronin. Overcomplicates it all, and I want it simple. As it is now, it's as simple as it can possibly get. It also parallels the Rogues Gallery, who don't accept assaults -- and whose methodology this list in '''no way, shape or form''' is either emulating, or satirising. NEVAR!
| |
|
| |
| :I was thinking maybe a half-point for an assist, though? Or, just like in hockey or football (aka soccer), a seperate column for "goals" (i.e., kills) and assists? I'm not sure.... and in any event, it won't be implemented until the beginning of the next "recording cycle"... What I mean by that is that the lists will get archived and we'll start from scratch either monthly or bi-monthly or quarterly... depending on how big the list gets... That was the basic idea I had in mind, and that's why I've titled the current list September 2008. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 00:20, 21 September 2008 (BST)

| ::I like the "half point for assists" idea. --[[User:Jen|Jen]] 00:28, 21 September 2008 (BST)
| |
|
| |
| You know what? This list is already big enough, and time-consuming enough to maintain, as it is... that adding the extra pain in the arse of recording "half-kills" etc. would just be too much, I think. However, please do feel free to add "assist mentions" in the Comments cells... Sorry... --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 19:44, 24 September 2008 (BST)

| Sure, killing zombies in the street is a fast way to get XP... And level 6 is not a full grown up... But, once you hit level 5 or 6 you are a totally viable survivor and therefore''not'' a babah, not by any stretch of the imagination. --[[User:WanYao|WanYao]] 23:57, 20 September 2008 (BST) | | Sure, killing zombies in the street is a fast way to get XP...

| ::Well...it may well be the end of days. A BAR member not only hacks at a zombie INSIDE during a seige...he makes (what I assume is) a wise use of combat-revive first. He admittedly doesn't cade, but a FOXHOUND member does.

Ronin Gallery Template?

Regarding the definition of "babah" harmanz
- I think I'll just copy what I wrote to Jen about this... And explain why I usually do not consider level 5's babahz ... and why under no circumstances I consider a character with 6 harman skills to be a babah.'
Graaaagh... I don't wanna bicker with you... But, here's my logic in response to this: "Wan says that level 6 =/= babah, and that these guys have no excuse." Ok... Here's the thing... Normally people's 2nd or 3rd skill is going to be Free Running, right? And, if they have half a brain, one of the first 3 skills they get will be Diagnosis. So... Let's look at a generic, reasonably intelligent build for a level 5 survivor...Skills are not necessarily in the order you'd buy them...
- Free Running - duh.
- Diagnosis - excellent XP farming skill
- Construction - if you're not a totally selfish jerk, you buy this skill ASAP.
- Shopping - because malls rawk, even without the Bargain Hunting bonus.
- Any XP farming skill of your choice... DNA scanning is cool, so is "missing with an axe", or even beginning to get some Firearms skills.
So... here we have a Level 5 character with two different ways to farm XP, access to reasonable search success rates in the mall, plus they have Free Running and a skill that makes them useful to other survivors, i.e. Construction. This is a fully viable character and no longer a babah -- an adolscent, yes, a babah, no chance. And, you could be even a bit more XP-hoggish and forgo Construction or even Shopping (and stick with PDs, or perhaps just use an axe) or hell Diagnosis if you're a real trenchcoater... and get one or two or three(!) more combat skills. Therefore by level 5 are a probably a "young adult", by level 6 most certainly you are.
Sure, killing zombies in the street is a fast way to get XP... And level 6 is not a full grown up... But, once you hit level 5 or 6 you are a totally viable survivor and thereforenot a babah, not by any stretch of the imagination. --WanYao 23:57, 20 September 2008 (BST)
The Ronin Reporting "Thread"
Submit your reports below.
Please place most recent at the TOP, for ease of navigation, and use a Level Three header (three equal signs) for each submission. When reporting, please include all the information we need to easily add your ronin to the Scrolls of Shame, i.e. profile link, iWitness, etc. Also, please sign and timestamp your reports.
The reports submitted below will (eventually) be deleted to save space, etc..
Nota bene: I will no longer accept raw screenshots as evidence. For numerous reasons, they're just too big a pain in the bum. Feel free to include them, but only Iwitnesses will be "official". Thanks for your understanding and ever-unquestioning compliance -- the MGMT.
