Rotters who want to come back to the humans.

Suggestion description
Brain Rot. A skill to prevent combat reviving (in my eyes). Good for permanent zombies, but what if, after a while, you want to experience the thrill of being a survivor? Make an alt? You don't want to start over again. Go to the local NT building? Unaware survivors might accidentally barricade it again. No rotter revive NT anywhere? Well your screwed then. BUT, what if there was an entrance designed especially for rotters? What will happen is that most, if not all NT buildings will have a special entrance so that they can get a revive. Attempting to enter it as a survivor or non-rotter will display this flavor text:

You don't need to enter here.

Entering as a rotter will display this:

Are you sure you want to enter here? You will not be able to exit.

Confirming it will make you enter it. Once you enter it, you will be sedated (you will lose no AP) and one of the following will happen (you (the voter) choose):

Automatic Revive: As the name implies, you will be automatically revived and taken to another area in the building for cleaning/healing. The process will take approximately 10-15 minutes.

Automatic(ish) Revive: A scientist with NT access presses a button and the above will happen sans the time limit. (only half of the exp and AP)

Manual Revive: A scientist will go in and revive you normally. (full exp)

When you stand up, you will be in a separate room and be assaulted with many cryptic messages that tell you not to attack other survivors for 48 hours (you know to prevent zombie spies). Once that time limit is up, you will still be monitored and if you kill a survivor, your name will be placed on a "no auto revive list" and you will not be able to enter a rotter entrance again.

Any ideas to improve will be greatly appreciated!

Keep Votes

Kill Votes

1. kill - i see rot survivors as players enjoying the game in the most hardcore level they can get in Malton. In this case, you dont want to make their lives easier, cuz it would be meaningless to play it as it would be the same as playing harman without rot. --People's Commissar Hagnat ^{talk mod} 02:23, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
2. Kill As Hagant. My survivor is rotted and getting a revive isn't that hard anyway. Linkthewindow  Talk  02:35, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
3. Kill - See above, plus that automatic revive thing could be abused in quite a few ways and in turn made into an unfair advantage for zombies.--SirArgo ^Talk 02:39, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
4. Kill - No. As the three above me. --Nny The Person 06:39, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
5. Kill - I hear that it is not too hard for rotters to get revived, and the automatic revives don't seem like good ideas. The no-harman-killing list is a disadvantage to PKers, and looks like an annoyance. --ZsL 08:50, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
6. Kill - Just no point to this. Possibly even spam -- Sage|Carr ^Cobra 10:59, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
7. Kill- For reasons given earlier. Nemesis645 18:11, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
8. Kill- Rotters for some reason find their way to life without NPC... so ...No.--LithedarkangelMeth!^{The Great Meth Man} 06:03, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
9. Kill-If you pick Brain Rot up as a skill, it's usually because you want to not be revived. It even warns you before buying it. The "irreversible" aspect should stay as it is.LaosOman 20:33, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
10. Kill - First off, this is way to complex and sounds like it would be a pain to implement, second it would remove the appeal of "hard mode" Rohndogg1 02:45, 12 January 2009 (UTC)

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. Spam - absolutely not, no NPC revives or barricade bypasses. You'll have trenchies buying the rot -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 09:51 8 January 2009 (BST)
2. Spam - This is a flawed suggestion for the sole purpose of gaining a higher numerical level. Your ability to play the game and your worth to your representative cause is not measured in level numbers. -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 10:11, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
3. Spam - As boxy and Hagnat. Also, have you even played a rotter? Revivification isn't much of a problem. --Midianian^|T|DS|C:RCS| 10:15, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
4. Spam - As Hagnat, except I don't think this should be considered as seriously. Liberty 10:22, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
5. Spam - What the shit is this? --Ocular ^Druuuuu 17:48, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
6. Spam - Fucking Hell, no. --Papa Moloch 18:35, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
7. Spam - Ridiculous, definitely no. --Nevin McAvoy^(talk) 22:10, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
8. Spam - This nerfs Brain Rot to point where there is no point in it even existing. Not a chance. -- Cheese 20:40, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
9. Spam - As above re: game balance. Now, I for one have sufficient suspension of disbelief to accept a zombie apocalypse. Magic doors that only open for cortex-damaged zombies, however, that's pushing it way past my limit. That's before we even get to the magic voice issuing stern metagaming warnings.--Jiangyingzi 07:08, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
10. Spam - Awful, awful suggestion.-- Adward  12:59, 11 January 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:20090108 Rotter revive entrance). 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.
