ELBERT GRAY KICKS MANHAMZ! Daniel Hicken 00:56, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome and the props - actually, Wolfgang Puck is my alt who lives at St. Wolfgang's Hospital, I live at Tikhon General in Ruddlebank. Do stop by for a check-up! Elbert Gray

Hey.

It's me. You might remember me from...how long ago? Mark D. Stroyer. Well, my group moved back to Ruddlebank. So if you need any help, just give me a call. Either wiki or in-game works, but wiki is cheaper. -Mark D. Stroyer ^SoH 04:18, 24 April 2007 (BST)

I remember, you were a big help at Tikhon. The neighborhood is a lot safer for the moment, things are well in hand. That can change quickly, so I'll call if we're in a jam, and you can call on Tikhon Medical if you need a hand. - Elbert Gray 22:14, 24 April 2007 (BST)

We'd love to. Attacking Dartside, preferably. Where can I get some more detailed information? Also, I'll see if I can get our allies, the DvB:SWEEPZ, to help, as well. -Mark D. Stroyer ^SoH 05:21, 11 May 2007 (BST)

NA News

Hi Elbert. The Current Events sections on the suburb pages are for reporting news about the suburb in a NPOV, not for posting personal commentary and slagging off other groups. Please move your June 19th post to the discussion page, or amend its content if you'd like to make a substantive report. Thank you. --Ragged Robin 00:54, 20 June 2007 (BST)

Thanks a lot for the change.--Ragged Robin 14:58, 20 June 2007 (BST)

About Ruddlebank

You know, there's a pretty high chance that Tikhon will be smashed to pieces when the Bash get there. They originally attacked Ruddlebank to end the siege, but now it's just the Big Bash verus Tikhon. Since the Bash moves slowly as it devastes everything in it's path, I'd suggest you run like hell to Dartside to wait it out, but since you appear committed, I'd recommend having some guys with syringes leave to begin the revive cycle once the Bash changes it's direction to Lockettside. --User:Axe27/Sig 16:35, 26 October 2007 (BST)

A little late to end the siege, we'd won. But a new siege has begun already, starting with LUE... I'd say the chances are about 100 percent that Tikhon will be smashed. It's not the first time, won't be the last. It is but one battle, with many more to come. It wouldn't be any fun to just flee. We've got some revivers in hiding - after all, we have to keep a date with the Bash at Tompson, too.

Promise me you'll swing near Grigg Heights so my zombie can rejoin? I had to pull Wolfgang out to keep him away from my survivor. elbert gray 17:04, 26 October 2007 (BST)

We'll get there! Sheesh, can't rush destruction. But, anyhow, good like with getting back on your feet after the bash. --User:Axe27/Sig 19:00, 26 October 2007 (BST)

Your guys killed about 1/5 of our members in the LUE attack, we were 100% in 2 days. What, you thought these green 'burbs were soft? We live under siege of 30-50 zombies pretty much all the time. The Bash broke the routine for a couple of days, it was fun. Elbert 17:27, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

The Colbert Report

Dear (Your name here),

Stephen Colbert appreciates your interest in his show. Unfortunately guest appearances on The Colbert Report are scheduled well in advance and in order of global importance of the guest. The name "Chester Cheetoh" will be added as a guest alternate in the unlikely event that an important guest finds him or herself dead or undead as the approaches airtime.

Thank you for your support of The Colbert Report.

Sincerely, --Stephen Colbert DFA 20:39, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

For auld lang syne, my dear

Sorry to hear that you are planning to leave Shuttlebank, many of the EF and ZRO! Fighters, especially one, will miss the cheese poofs and the mooning. Keep safe and return soon. --CannibalX 00:43, 20 August 2008 (BST)

DEM

Hi! I see you removed Tikhon Medical from the Department of Emergency Management's ally list. May I ask why? Did I miss something? - Stephen Krantz 06:37, 29 May 2009 (BST)

Just a little maintenance; we never were an ally of the DEM. One of our eager new members went a little nuts some time ago and started trying to ally us with everyone. We wouldn't be interested in an alliance either, for a number of reasons:

- DEMs attempt to institute a barricade plan for Dartside was heavy-handed and done without much (if any) respect for local groups (long time ago);

- DEM overspraying of the Greenleaves Alley RP, which was established by Tikhon (it's happened many times before, and I had to overspray a DEM tinyURL just yesterday);

- DEM overspraying Tikhon tags in/on Tikhon General, our HQ, on several occasions (none very recently);

- DEM personnel taking credit for rebuilding the southwestern suburbs following an invasion, when it was local groups doing all the heavy lifting

- DEM adding a DEM ally template to the Tikhon page (somewhat understandable given the overtures our eager beaver made, but a little presumptuous)

These types of actions been an ongoing annoyance, so most Tikhoners don't have a lot of goodwill towards DEM. We're not an enemy, but we're not an ally, either. -- Elbert Gray 15:31, 29 May 2009 (BST)

I see. Thank you for the detailed answer. I'll have a look at what our folks are doing with them spray cans. That's not how it is supposed to be. If the link is to the revive tool it is of course possible that other people did that. the Revive tool is a public resource in use by many survivors. I'm sorry you have been inconvenienced. - Stephen Krantz 16:09, 29 May 2009 (BST)

Short Story

As a short term member of the OBR I of course know wolfgang very well. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 22:18, 2 April 2010 (BST)

I trust Wolfgang's recollection of recent events is accurate? There's a lot of OBR lead rattling around in his head. When he sneezes, he's like a morrocca. - elbert 22:35, 2 April 2010 (BST)

These people and their guns. I still think home cooking and the odd combat revive is all malton really needs. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 22:40, 2 April 2010 (BST)

Would you be interested in being a guest lecturer at the WMU?

Subject line says it all I guess. I'd love to have you as a guest lecturer and maybe have Wolfgang slap down some knowledge about the Zahmbah lifestyle and answer any questions the students might have. If you're interested, let me know. I'd love to have your input.--Samhain Sam 02:13, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Elbert doesn't really move in the territory WMU covers, but has been active in Malton for 6, going on 7 years. If you'd like some insights from the Janitorial Battle Guide and Malton history (especially as it pertains to the southwestern suburbs), he's a good choice.

Wolfgang is probably the better choice, as he IS a resident of WMU territory and he has a history of speaking engagements (see his speeches to the Quartly Library). Those speaking engagements are, of course completely in Zamgrh, and in-character (that is, not revived for the occasion - barricades may have to be removed for him to enter). Translations are NOT provided, so it's important to have someone fluent in Zamgrh present. Their translations will not be corrected if/when inaccurate - it's just how Wolfgang rolls. Seeing question marks or comments like "I have NO idea what he meant" just adds to the charm of the speech and encourages future Zombie linguists to make their own educated guesses, though most of the time the translators do a fantastic job. Wolfgang gives speeches on Zamgrh itself, which he's played a major role in developing, as well as cooking lessons.

Both would be happy to oblige; I'll just have to make sure I separate them to avoid the appearance of impropriety, even for speeches.

Just let me know if you want one or both, when, where, and what topics you would like them to cover, if there are any preferences. And of course, barricades may have to be removed for Wolfgang, so students would be advised to have Wolfgang in their contacts to avoid shooting the guest lecturer while he AP's up. - Elbert Gray

Thank you for the quick response & I'm aware of your past lectures, I was just hoping to squeeze a bit more out of ya. Don't worry about moving characters around, what I was thinking about would be all done on the WMU message board. You could sign up, I'd up your permissions to give your lecture and then open the thread up for questions or comments if you're interested in entertaining questions afterward. I was thinking more along the lines of having Wolfgang do the lecture but a history of Malton from Elbert would be awesome as well. I say both but that all depends on what you are wanting to take on.....it can be a big task doing one of these.....I've done one myself for MCM in the past.

I'd like to advertise it some too so you have time to think up a great topic and really plan the hell out of it.........THEATER!!!!!  :) When your lecture period is over, I'll then lower your permissions back down that way no one can scream improprieties about you being able to see the supa sekrit schtuff. --Samhain Sam 05:33, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

I had to think about this for a little while. I'm going to have to pass - it seems like a good idea, but one that will take some time to do right. I just don't have the "fire in the belly" to do it right at this time. Thanks for the invitation, though! - Elbert Gray 13:55, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
