Voting Section

Voting Rules

Votes must be numbered, justified, signed, and timestamped. # justification ~~~~ Votes that do not conform to the above may be struck by any user.

The only valid votes are Keep, Kill, Spam or Dupe. If you wish to abstain from voting, do not vote.

Keep Votes

1. Keep - Great flavour. --Maverick ^{Talk - OBR 404} 12:29, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
2. Keep - My Suggestion, My vote. Cookies and Cream 01:42, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
3. Keep - Sure, why not.-- Adward  14:53, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
4. Keep - Although being british, I'm going to avoid mansions from now on. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 15:42, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
5. Keep - I love it! I can't wait to see some zombies waiting in line at the bank. Lelouch vi Britannia is helping make Ridleybank green_ and gives Achievements 17:01, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
6. Keep - More flavor is good, even in stale donuts. --^A_O^R_D^M_O^P_R^I _! ^T 20:58, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
7. Keep - As above. --Private Mark 04:28, 7 December 2009 (UTC)

Kill Votes

1. Kill - Shopping in malls can all ready be done, as well as drinking in pubs. The others I don't like. --^TCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 12:24, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
2. Kill - Not keen on pointless AP wastage, especially if it can be rendered through speech already. Also, "pretending to be British". Can I fuck a sheep and point to Wales? 19:29, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

   RE:probably not at the same time.^{non author RE struck}--Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 19:34, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

3. Kill - The idea is workable, but I don't like some of the actions (e.g. mansions). They should have gone through DS, since they could use work. —Aichon— 20:26, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
4. Kill I actually like the basic idea, but I'm not a fan of the specific flavor actions you've presented. Shoulda given everyone more time to work it out on DS. Ah well.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 00:58, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
5. Kill Apparently some morons have nothing better to do than press a button and waste their AP. Like I care if you are reading a book in a library or climbing in a junkyard or lying in a grave in a cemetary. And if you are too stupid to find a way to express these actions through other means then a button to do so isnt going to help you. (man this type of suggestion gets me worked up!) --YoEleven 09:48, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
6. Kill - as Aichon and Giles. And I want a "Eat pizza" for Italians. :P --Janus ^talk 15:23, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
7. Kill - Enough of this shit already.--

   RE: NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! I HAD IT EVEN AT 7 KEEPS and 7 KILLS! Cookies and Cream 14:00, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

9. Kill - Incomplete/useless. What would display when using any of these actions? Would it be visible to other players? Do survivors even need any more blatant wastes of AP? Who would even remotely care enough to use this? --Papa Johnny 15:52, 10 December 2009 (UTC)
10. Kill - Useless/Idiotic. The suggestions you listed, especially "Pretending to be British," are in poor taste, both for the atmosphere of the game and in general. Poor humor in any circumstance. We have enough AP waste "fun" actions that fit with the game, and are you really going to "Pretend to be British" when you could be attacked or axed by another guy in the building? Author is also very irritating. --User:gunnum 2:24, 13 December 2009 (UTC)
11. Kill - Not a stupid idea, really, just not useful. All of these things could be good fodder for roleplaying, but really have no use in the game. I'm not a huge fan of AP-wasters and bandwith-leechers, anyway. So yeah, roleplay in the game, it's fun and people will do it with you, you can't kill things all the time and not be bored, just don't try and implement something unnecessary.

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Spam - Zombies get one thing. And it's stupid. Most of it doesn't make sense for a rotting zombie to do. Or be able to do,-- SA 12:33, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

   RE: Zombie don't get just one thing. they get all of them, but they get that one specifically. Guess I should have put that in there...Cookies and Cream 12:39, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

2. Dupe - And the "Hur hur, British in mansions, hur" annoys me, why don't we have "Shooting many pictures everywhere like the Japanese"? Or "Holidaying in Poland" for the Germans? Dick. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 19:01, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

Come now, Wanda, we all know you brits love the attention. Besides, we're all are friends when it eventually comes to the point where we have to make fun of the French. -Lord Hawthorne 03:33, 19 December 2009 (UTC)

1. Spam / Racism - As above, but I don't think the dupe is dupey enough.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:40, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
2. Spam - I really don't care for this one. --ZsL 03:32, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
3. Spam - As Iscariot. --Haliman - Talk 13:46, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Voting Rules

Current Suggestions Advice to Suggesters Adding options to your suggestion is not good practice. Others will not vote on the options, only the main body; please don't ask them to do so. Once you have posted your suggestion, it is considered complete. Altering the suggestion mechanics after voting has begun nullifies existing votes, and is considered an abuse of the suggestions system. Doing so will result in your suggestion being removed from the voting system to removed suggestions, where you can work out the details and resubmit later if you desire. It is preferred that you remove your own suggestion and resubmit a new version with changes, if changes are needed. "Notes" added for clarification purposes, and correcting spelling/typos are permitted. When considering adding a clarification note, it is often better for all parties involved, for the author to remove the suggestion and resubmit it with the clarification included for the voters who have already placed their votes. Advice to Voters You are voting on Suggestions, not Users. The text of your vote should not personally attack or denigrate the user who has submitted it... no matter how ridiculous the idea. Flaming and/or Trolling will not be tolerated. Before voting please read the Suggestions Dos and Do Nots and Frequently Suggested Ideas Page to read about concepts that have been generally considered unworkable in the past. You do not need to follow the guidelines on these pages but they are worth consideration before casting a vote. One vote per user. No exceptions. You cannot use multiple wiki accounts to vote on a suggestion. To Vote, use the [edit] button at the top of the voting section, then enter your vote in the the proper format to the end of the relevant section (keep/kill/spam). It is strongly recommended that voters (especially in the kill/spam sections) justify their vote to help others understand the reason they disagree. Feedback helps new suggesters get a feel for what the community does and does not want included in Urban Dead, and a deeper understanding of the balance needed for a workable suggestion. Votes must include a signature in order to be considered valid votes. To sign a vote, use --~~~~. Please remember to sign your votes! Unsigned votes will be deleted after 30 minutes or when found. Each Suggestion will be open to voting for two (2) weeks, measured from the suggestion's Timestamp, unless it is a Dupe or Spam. If, at the end of that time, there are two thirds (2/3) more Keep votes than Kill votes, the Suggestion will be moved to the Peer Reviewed Suggestions page. Otherwise, the Suggestion will be moved to the Peer Rejected Suggestions page.

Rules for Discussions Votes are NOT the place to discuss Suggestions. This page and archived suggestion pages only to be used for the Suggesting and subsequent Voting of these suggestions. If you wish to discuss the suggestion or vote here, please use this page's Talk page (Suggestion talk:20091206 Location Specific Actions). Suggestions do not have to be submitted in order to discuss them. Developing Suggestions can be used to workshop possible suggestions before they are submitted.

Valid Votes Keep, for Suggestions that you believe have merit. Kill, for Suggestions that you believe do not have merit. If you need to discuss a rule fix, use the discussion page. Spam, for the most ridiculous suggestions. Suggestions can be removed with Spam votes as described on the cycling suggestions page. If the criterion described there are not fulfilled, the suggestion must remain for the whole two weeks. Spam votes are not a "strong kill", they are simply here to prevent the utterly ridiculous from clogging up the system. If you do not like the idea, and it's not some crazy uber power or something else ridiculous, VOTE KILL, NOT SPAM. Spam votes will be counted as Kill when votes are tallied. Dupe, for Suggestions that are exact or very close duplicates of previous suggestions. For a Dupe vote to be valid, a link must be provided to the original suggestion. Dupe votes can be used to remove suggestions as described on the cycling suggestions page. Dupe votes will not be counted when votes are tallied. Humourous, for suggestions that are obviously intended to be satirical, or of comedic value only.}} Suggestions can be removed with Humourous votes as described on the cycling suggestions page. If the criterion described there are not fulfilled, the suggestion must remain for the whole two weeks.

Invalid Votes Server Load and Programming Complexity are NOT very good Kill reasons. You are voting on the merit of the suggestion and whether or not you think it belongs in the game. Server load/complexity issues are up to Kevan to decide. X should be implemented first is not a valid reason for a vote. You are voting on the merit of THIS suggestion, not how it compares to others. Votes that do not have reasoning behind them are invalid. You MUST justify your vote.

Comments Re may be used to comment on a vote. Only the original author and the person being REd can comment. Comments are restricted to a single comment per vote, and it is expected that Re comments be as short as possible. Reing every kill vote is considered abuse of the Re comment. A Re does not count as a vote, and any subsequent discussion not part of the Re comment should be held on the discussion page if there is any extended commenting. Note is used by System Operators to invalidate trolling-based votes. Only Sysops may remove troll-based votes and they do so with a strikeout <s></s> in order to preserve the trolling removal for posterity. The voter may contest the strikeout with the Sysop that struck their vote out on the discussion page. Only a System Operator may remove a strikeout.

All Caps Try to avoid YELLING, writing in bold, or using italics, except when emphasizing a point which has escaped other voters.
