- My militant zombie alt Zombuddha finds you to be a worthy opponent. BARHAH! Buddhagazelle 14:17, 29 May 2007 (BST)
- I must concur with Zombuddha. Your comment to me is immensely flattering, although I'm afraid I cannot claim coordination with blackthornwhatsit. (I do hope he's not zerging--that's a sad state of affairs if he is.) Hope to see you next time I'm in your neck of Malton! --Vandr 22:04, 18 July 2007 (BST)

Got your message. I'm interested in what you may have in mind. You got a link to your brainstock threads, or posts? --The Envoy 00:20, 24 July 2007 (BST)
- Yup. You can check out the thread here. The general idea is in the first post, but there are some good questions down the line if you feel like wading through all the bullshit. What I'm trying to do now is come up with a framework and get some support from independent parties and smaller groups (non-egomaniacs interested in the bigger picture). If you know anyone who fits that description, by all means pass the word. --Paddy Dignam 03:28, 24 July 2007 (BST)
- I'll mention it around my digs, but really I think you and Sonny are talking about the same thing, just Sonny's a bit more authoritarian or a badge-fetishizing, while you think the job can be done with no stinkin' badges. I don't see how either system improves upon the way things are coordinated via Brainstock or the New Malton Collossus. There's a shared mindset you and Sonny have that this game can somehow be "won". Maybe back in Sonny's day when there were far less players, and comms were limited to just a few boards, areas could be heavily secured. Then isn't now.--The Envoy 06:31, 26 July 2007 (BST)
- Anybody who thinks the game can be won is delusional. This isn't about winning, it's about getting more people involved. It's about paying less attention to "glorious battles" and more attention to the suburbs without Blackmore Buildings. How many groups are in the NMC? Would the NMC ever respond to a crisis in, say, Starlingtown? Having another board isn't the point. Hell, Brainstock would probably work just fine, although I don't think it's secure enough for this sort of thing (and I think having a neutral site is wiser). The idea is to get folks to think, at least in part, beyond the 10x10 square they grew up in. --Paddy Dignam 19:35, 26 July 2007 (BST)

DRRP Template
I've started working on a group template for the DRRP in my sandbox Paddy, if you want to take a look and tell me what you think I can set it up as a normal template really easily. Drop me a line either here in reply or on my talk page to let me know what you think. the one, the only, sushiknight (talk contribs HARD E.N.D.) 17:07, 25 July 2007 (BST)
- Gah, almost didn't see your comment hidden -in- my sandbox like that. Henh. Easier to leave a message on my talk page next time :D. I moved the template into the template userspace already! Template:DRRPsmall Call it with {{DRRPsmall|User=Your Name HERE}} to get what's below.the one, the only, sushiknight (talk contribs HARD E.N.D.) 01:59, 2 August 2007 (BST)

- Under the My preferences tab you can set it to see anything that was posted on one of your pages you have watched or made. I do this just so I don't miss any msg.--XxPale HorsexX 12:43, 2 August 2007 (BST)

What you saw was my shotgun, and I'll chalk that up to your optical nerves being chewed up too many times. --ZuluDeacon 00:53, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

Props from the Feral Undead
We are well met! As someone who has stuck around this goofy game for awhile, it’s refreshing to find groups who still play the game with a sense of humor - it is what makes this whole thing fun. I am glad we stumbled across you fine folks and am more than happy to play along. R33F3RM4N mentioned the possibility of a zombie karaoke session - I am sure that would generate interest within the Feral Undead.--Priapus 02:24, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
RE: Signature
Fonts? Hmm, I don't all of the ones that work. It depends on the browser though. They work in some, but not others. Here are a few I know off the top of my head:
Zapfino
Cracked <-- no work in IE
Arial
Courier New
Georgia
Times New Roman
Verdana
Trebuchet MS
Lucida Sans
Sans-Serif
Serif
Monospace
Cursive
Fantasy
Anything else? -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 18:41, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
- I copied from Wikipedia. :P You could try some others from MS, but I don't know how many would work. -- AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 18:48, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
- I don't think it's an IE thing, probably just a "What fonts does the user have installed?" thing. So you can only be guaranteed the stock stuff under stock names. "Cracked" works for me, because I have it installed, however, it's under the name "Crackhouse" and so you have to call it by that name to get it to work. I can get one of my custom fonts to show, but I doubt anybody else would have it. So yeah, stick to stock otherwise your font will default to TNR. --

- Will do. I found a font I like and will now see how long it takes me to make a signature without (1) pulling out all my hair, or (2) blowing up the wiki. Thanks again. --Paddy Dignam 19:21, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

It's only fair that you know. Linkthewindow Talk 06:58, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
I don't really know what happens after two weeks, to be honest ;). There's no way we usually do this (it's nearly always done by discussion, with maybe a straw poll, but no binding votes, which is why I linked to the Wikipedia policy.) It looks like it's whoever gets the most votes wins, now. I don't really think you need an impartial party to do the tally - you don't have to be impartial to see which has the most numbers below it :P.
If he goes ahead anyway, you could take him to arbitration and get it solved there. I understand that he doesn't really know what he's doing here - he's ether an idiot (per him trying to change the barricade plans the first time,) or trying to be bold but going about it the wrong way. Like you've suggested before, I think he's just young. We've got people like that in MCM - one must be careful when taking them aside and telling them off for something.
He's been doing similar things over the past few weeks - such as putting the Dead up for a historical nomination, his promotion bid and this deletion request. I think he's trying to become active in the community but doing it the wrong way, and rubbing people the wrong way while doing it.
Anyway, enough with my rambling :P. Contact me if you need any more help or have any questions. Linkthewindow Talk 07:18, 29 March 2009 (BST)
Revives
Hey, I've been standing around in Angerstein cemetary for little while now and I saw you pass by.. could you revive me please?? =) Thanks - I also requested a revive using the tool but someone has yet to come by. --ScaredPlayer 15:33, 11 April 2009 (BST)
YOUR BURB
Is falling into disrepair! The bastion of survivor hope, VOSS LANE PD is like dead, as are many of the surrounded dark and generator-less buildings. I've spent the last couple days looking for generators in Whitemore Auto repair (the closest source of fuel/gennies to danversbank, correct me if im wrong), but I've found no generators yet. BTW can I add my group affiliation as DRRP? I've decided to settle down permanently here. I really like it, especially how the barricade plan is almost always followed. And now, in Danversbank's time of distress I'm glad to help out. Most people don't care about fixing the burb though, more like they just sit around in dark buildings then spend their days worth of AP whaling on zombies. --ScaredPlayer 16:13, 23 May 2009 (BST)
