1. First blood Lets kick things off here.--Pvt christopher 18:04, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

   Good kill Chris. I was APing to come get you. You beat me by 2 hours. -- Albert Schwan  _{Friday, 2 December 2011}

2. Turn about is fair play ;)-- Albert Schwan  _{Saturday, 3 December 2011}

   the hell, how'd you get revived so fast and then find/kill me...very nice though.--Pvt christopher 06:46, 3 December 2011 (UTC)

3. Slow start. --Like Moss and The Dude..... 00:09, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
4. Talk about taking it down to the wire! You wouldn't believe how much ammo it took to get that kill shot. 10 consecutive misses with a shotgun and I burned my IP hits refreshing. Worth it in the end. -- Albert Schwan  _{Sunday, 4 December 2011}

   Well. At least you guys are getting somewhere. I keep getting picked off by the RRF. >_> --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 06:03, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

   Just tell me where you are next time you get revived. I'll make sure the RRF don't get you. ;) -- Albert Schwan  _{Sunday, 4 December 2011}

5. ╘~ Saved one more contestant from the clutches of the RRF. -- Albert Schwan  _{Monday, 5 December 2011}

   Oh snap. The first two-pointer kill of the hunt. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:33, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

   Congrats Michaleson. That was also the first kill of the event that was neither for nor against me.-- Albert Schwan  _{Tuesday, 6 December 2011}

Scoreboard

Update here. Remember. A kill in a building able to achieve Dark status counts as two kills.

Preliminary Discussions

On your marks. Get set. Discuss! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 08:07, 16 August 2011 (BST)

Discus. Like the throwing plates. You know you want to. 16:31, 16 August 2011 (BST)

Mis, sign up for RO2. You know you wanna. ~ _{18:27, 16 August 2011 (UTC)}

Holiday Hunting

I predict lots of christmas tree and tinels deaths. Maybe even some pumpkins if they aren't all used during RO2. A fine time for a manhunt. ~ _{01:46, 9 September 2011 (UTC)}

I was thinking maybe bumping the start date forward to Thanksgiving (November 24th). Maybe. AHMH5 is pretty much gonna be the smallest area for an AHMH event as of current, so. Yea. Let's introduce more changes. We'll take it one change at a time. We'll not stop until AHMH becomes all perfect. More blood, more gore, more deaths, more holiday cheer, more rules (There may be one new rule. Maybe.)! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 01:52, 9 September 2011 (BST)

RO2 runs until Nov 24 so you may have a conflictthere. Beside, Thanksgiving is probably completely irrelevent to these europeans we share this game with. ~ _{02:07, 9 September 2011 (UTC)}

Once again. Maybe. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 02:08, 9 September 2011 (BST)

Yep. Also sorry. I meant to say RO2 ends Nov 22nd. ~ _{02:13, 9 September 2011 (UTC)}

I applaud the dark building rule. --^{Hey Sweden!} 17:46, 22 September 2011 (BST)

Dark buildings need more risk in manhunts! :D --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:04, 23 September 2011 (BST)

They don't have to be dark at the time of the kill to count double, right? ~ _{20:24, 23 October 2011 (UTC)}

Nope. As long as they're able to achieve Dark status. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 20:37, 23 October 2011 (BST)

Why the zombie provision? If you can exploit this rule change when it is lit, why not when one is dead. In all other cases, zombie-on-harman kills are full-fledged kills within the manhunt are they not? Why not here?-- Albert Schwan  _{Sunday, 23 October 2011}

Because zombies have an advantage in the dark. They hit more in the dark compared to a survivor. Plus, the survivor needs to waste an AP or two installing a Genny and fueling it. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 21:45, 23 October 2011 (BST)

Yes but your system does not require that someone install a generator. If it is already lit (as many are right now), it still counts double. Not to mention that zombies have a disadvantage when it comes to getting into the building in the first place. All I am saying is if you are going to stigmatize people for being in a dark (which I am fine with by the way), why resort to half-measures?-- Albert Schwan  _{Sunday, 23 October 2011}

I've got to agree, it's a little baffling this rule. Now, if it was a contestant (alive or dead) killing another contestant in the dark, with no genny present, then 2 points would make sense, and be worth taking the risk. That extra point reward could be the deciding one between me becoming the fucking nearly man for three straight years running. Looking at you, Dobbs. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD |

 

23:37, 23 October 2011 (BST)

Always a bridesmaid eh Kempy? Seriously though, after consideration, I am with Kempy here. If the point is to reward chutzpa, make it so that the kill has to take place in the actual dark. If the point is to get people out of the dark buildings, make it so any kill counts. Either way, make it a simple rule and get this pulseist clause out. -- Albert Schwan  _{Sunday, 23 October 2011}

My logic of thinking was to give them a risk for sleeping in a Dark. That's why the double points. However, as a zombie, you have an easier chance of claiming those double points, regardless if whether the building was lit or dark. Which is why zombies contestants will not benefit from this. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:25, 24 October 2011 (BST)

Aye, I can see your thinking Axe, but really, zombies don't have that great an advantage in the dark against us breathers. I've lost count the amount of fails even the most experienced of zeds have had on my alts in an unlit cinema. Nerfing them a point for a successfull kill doesn't seem fair. Besides, this is part of the risk innit? Freerunning into a dark to rest for the night, knowing a zombie opponent could be fast asleep on the floor... it all adds to the drama of the game. My idea of that double points reward for a kill in the dark, human or zombie, is the only logical way for this to work. But then again, I know a certain girl who'll give me a dirty look for making a simple manhunt more complicated with more rules. So, I'll shuddup. (soz babe!) ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD |

 

00:40, 24 October 2011 (BST)

...also, Dobbs. Bridesmaid? You'll get yours this year matey, mark my words! ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD |

 

00:40, 24 October 2011 (BST)

Settle down Kempy. If you’re nice I may rig the bouquet toss this year. Axe, since you seem adamant on this I will try one more time and then give up. I admit that a zombies get a bonus to hit in the dark. A lit building that can be dark will not give them any bonus. I offer that the bonus does not outweigh the dark penalty but only slightly offsets it. I offer that for a zombie to kill someone in a dark they must break in, parachute in, rise inside, or the building must be un-barricaded. Once in, they will hit for 3-4 HP. Comparatively, a survivor need but freerun into the building. Once there, they are slightly less likely to hit but can do twice or more the damage. If you are still convinced that a zombie can easily claim these points, I will meet you in an EHB dark of your choice before the event. You show up as a zombie and see how easy it is to claim the kill. Beyond this, It’s your party so if you don’t want zombies playing with the toys that’s fine. I just think you are complicating things. For me, this is an academic argument. I have no intention of racking up manhunt kills as a zombie; it is too much extra work :P-- Albert Schwan  _{Monday, 24 October 2011}

I'll put this to a vote later. There's still time before this starts, after all. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:55, 24 October 2011 (BST)

There you go, Al. You got your wish. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:56, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

The Blob demands more potential offerings! The feedings may be far and few between unless we get more hunters. Will you shrink the playing field if we can't get more participants? --Dr summeroff 18:21, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

I might probably cut it down to any formation of three suburbs in the corner if we don't make 10 contestants. Again, this might partially be my fault for the lack of advertisement for this one. And probably the timing of the hunt. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 18:34, 23 November 2011 (UTC)

Perhaps it is the fact the potential entrants know they will be facing a high priest of the one true ruler of Malton and they tremble at the prospect. Even the very thought of it can turn the bravest of souls into giant quivering lips. The digestive process is slow as the offerings are dropped into the gelatinous master's slobbering maw. Who wants to take the risk of being his meal?...and err, might be the timing as well. The advertising has been good - spread far and wide. --Dr summeroff 15:39, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

Deffo the timing. December is just a crazy busy month for too many folk, and I personally am gutted I'll have to miss it. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD |

how do i...

How do i make a signature? -- DJ INTP 27 Oct 2011

Help:Signatures...or be a "wiki code stealer"...find a cool sig page, click "edit" to see/copy the code but don't "save page"... make your own sig page [[User:DJ INTP/sig]] and paste the code there...then customize it to fit your personality/character. →Son of Sin← 01:34, 28 October 2011 (BST)

Contestant Count

If this event has less then ten contestants, the playing area will be adjusted like so:

Border	Border	Border
Border	Penny Heights	Border
Border	Fryerbank	Border
Border	Miltown	Border
Border	Border	Border

Is everyone cool with this? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 06:13, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Fine by me. It would be "fewer than ten contestants" by the way. :P -- Albert Schwan  _{Sunday, 27 November 2011}

Eh. I'm far too tired to care for grammar right now. 1:28AM here, you see. :P --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 06:28, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

I find it amusing that you've chosen a spot one of my alts keeps moving up and down across. XD --ZIPO/Talk/◆◆◆/CAPD 07:24, 27 November 2011 (UTC)

Everyone Ready?

This starts tonight at server reset. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 13:26, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

I apologise for my early kill. But I was dead, and he only had 12hp. --Like Moss and The Dude..... 19:19, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Event to start soon and more than a third of the contestants are dead? What is the world coming to? Do we have a dedicated reviver for this event? Albert Schwan  _{Thursday, 1 December 2011}

Blame my death on Mr. Josh Clark who couldn't resist that bounty on my head. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:35, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I also am having dinner with the Holy Blob right now due to someone from Team Xtreme getting their revenge on me for an earlier incident. The villain naturally picked the day before the manhunt started...and also as the suburb was falling into ruin - which is making my return to the mortal plane a difficulty one. As soon as I can get some rube to stick me, your sacrifices will begin in prompt fashion. --Dr summeroff 19:48, 4 December 2011 (UTC)

Reporting

We have no report kills here section yet. Presumably we will want one of those within the next few hours before the event starts. -- Albert Schwan  _{Thursday, 1 December 2011}

All with 17 minutes to spare. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 23:43, 1 December 2011 (UTC)

GO!

It's been go time for 7 minutes. Get your game on! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ ^{#nerftemplatedsigs} 00:07, 2 December 2011 (UTC)

Dark Kills

So when a contestant is killed in a dark, it counts as two kills for his killer. Does it likewise count as two deaths for the victim? If not, your two columns will not even out by the end of the hunt. -- Albert Schwan  _{Tuesday, 6 December 2011}
