Location and date

What the header says. Any ideas? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 05:21, 9 June 2010 (BST)

Upper left corner, any time. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 05:23, 9 June 2010 (BST)
I'm not fussy, somewhere where there is a mixture of survivor and zed presence. Honestly, it'd be cool making it so the second half of the tournament was when the BB3 was in the arena. mMah hah hah. -- 06:03, 9 June 2010 (BST)
North East corner. And soon. The Dulston Alliance are apparantly after Deej's ass so moving around through that lot would really be taking the piss. Fuck 'em, no fears here. Cig.gif ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 06:36, 9 June 2010 (BST)

3x3 Ketchelbank to Roftwood. Just because. Any date is good. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 12:16, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Ooh, I see whut you're doin' missus... Three malls in the playfield to work from, and another three just outside. Clever. For the most part. Wink.gif ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 12:21, 9 June 2010 (BST)
She's a woman telling her not to go to the mall is like telling zombies not to eat brains.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 12:22, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Yeah, umpossible. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 12:24, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Once it starts, you can't step outside the playing area. And I think we'll be lucky to have one of the three malls inside. Really, as DDR, I want variety, and just now the area has everything from green to ghost. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 12:44, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Definitely North-West corner.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 15:46, 9 June 2010 (BST)

I'm up for it. Just give us a two day grace period to sprint to wherever it is.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 15:49, 9 June 2010 (BST)
If its in the NW I'll need more time to get there.--Michalesonbadge.pngTCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 23:47, 9 June 2010 (BST)

So, shall we do this the same as all the previous AHMH? 3x3 area? Or shall we kick it up a notch depending on the number of contestants? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 00:04, 10 June 2010 (BST)

We have less than last year, 3x3 is fine for now.--Michalesonbadge.pngTCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 00:07, 10 June 2010 (BST)
Another thing, I'm gonna agree with Misanthropy to put the event in the NW. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 00:08, 10 June 2010 (BST)


OK, nobody really cares much about where or when this Manhunt takes place, so I'll throw in a few areas for you all to decide. Since the playing area will most likely be a 3x3 suburb area, I'm just gonna list the middle suburb. I'll also list some specific reasons for these areas.

  1. Lerwill Heights
  2. Reganbank - No Malls in the area.
  3. West Becktown - Caiger Mall is in the area. Who wouldn't like shooting around a famous mall?
  4. Havercroft - Who wants to shot the monkeys?
  5. Pitneybank - It'll probably be difficult to kill another contestant in Fort Creedy, since it's usually packed.
  6. Judgewood (RenegadeRomero's suggestion. Added here on the list at 01:59, 12 June 2010 (BST))

As for the date, can we all agree on the first of next month? With the event going on for a month? If so, pick an area, quick. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 00:48, 12 June 2010 (BST)

Alternatively, we can start the manhunt earlier than the first. If so, I'm thinking along the lines of the 20th or later. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 01:24, 12 June 2010 (BST)
Option 3 and ASAP --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 01:35, 12 June 2010 (BST)
Centred on Judgewood and starting soon as everyone can get ready. --BOSCH 01:48, 12 June 2010 (BST)
Agreed. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 01:50, 12 June 2010 (BST)
The reason I decided West Becktown instead of Judgewood was because I was trying to limit the number of malls in the area to 1. But if you want Judgewood, I'll throw that up there as well. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 01:59, 12 June 2010 (BST)
Judgewood means it's exactly the top left corner. Makes it easier to figure things out. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 02:00, 12 June 2010 (BST)
Judgewood sounds good, and there's a tiny chance that Caiger Mall will be active the entire competition, so it might as well be one mall. Oh, and what happens if BB3 makes it all the way to to the manhunt area and ruins it? May 02:27, 12 June 2010 (BST)
I don't think we need to worry too much about the BB3. Some of the contestants here (mainly DDR and Rosslessness) have alts in the BB3. And the Judgewood area also has Calvert Mall. But if every wants the Judgewood area, then it'll be the Judgewood area. As for the date, if everyone wants it ASAP, than we can all pretty much agree to start this manhunt on the 20th. I wanna give everyone a week to get into the area and stock up, so... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 02:35, 12 June 2010 (BST)
The first of July is best IMO, the location is good :D -- 03:42, 12 June 2010 (BST)
Alright, I have an idea on how to settle this starting date thing...Please scroll to the bottom of this page in...3 minutes... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 03:54, 12 June 2010 (BST)

OK, folks. Seeing the number of people signing up for this Manhunt may make the playing area too small. If we hit 20 contestants, I'm gonna increase the size of the playing area from 3x3 to 4x4. And it looks like we're nearing the 20 mark... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 23:46, 16 June 2010 (BST)

OK, well, we have 20 contestants. I think it's time to consider increasing the area to 4x4. Since the original playing area is exactly in the NW corner, increasing the playing area shouldn't be too much a problem. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 00:51, 19 June 2010 (BST)

Well, with 20 in a 3x3, it averages to one person per 45 blocks, as compared to one person per 80 blocks with a 4x4, since 4x4 is almost double the playing area. Maybe a 3x4 or 4x3? It's not quite as drastic and should make finding people something that will happen a bit more regularly. Aichon 01:32, 19 June 2010 (BST)
You also have to consider that about 50% of the area is open space. It's very unlikely that any of the contestants will hide on the streets. Unless, of course, they're dead. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 01:39, 19 June 2010 (BST)
I'm actually planning to hide on the streets for at least part of the time, though I have some good reasons for doing so. Regardless, yeah, I thought about it some more, and if the first one had eight suburbs with six people, then this should be fine. Aichon 02:15, 19 June 2010 (BST)
So 3x4 or 4x3 instead of 4x4? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 17:58, 19 June 2010 (BST)
I was actually agreeing with you that 4x4 should be fine, I think, though others are welcome to disagree, of course. ;) Aichon 21:24, 19 June 2010 (BST)
4x4 sounds good. I've already found giles.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 21:53, 19 June 2010 (BST)
4x4 it is. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 22:45, 19 June 2010 (BST)

technical stuff

I'm assuming only survivor vs. Survivor kills will be counted? And if we head for NW it will be a no malls setup? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:53, 9 June 2010 (BST)

Calvert Mall innit? ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 11:55, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Umm, If you pull off a Zed v Survivor kill I recon you deserve the points, but not Zed v Zed, we outlined none of the latter last tournament. -- 12:08, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Seems fair --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:34, 9 June 2010 (BST)
Look, the rules stuff...It's gonna be the same as the first AHMH (with the exception of #5). And I'm thinking extra points for specific types of kills. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 00:02, 10 June 2010 (BST)
This is maybe a silly question, but for the sake of clarity, a survivor killing a contestant zombie earns no points, right? --BOSCH 03:06, 10 June 2010 (BST)
As far as I can see, the only pointless kills are zombie-on-zombie. Strength is just an accident arising from the weakness of others 03:24, 10 June 2010 (BST)
Ok, I can work with that if everyone else can. --BOSCH 03:48, 10 June 2010 (BST)
I'm pretty sure we outlawed Survivor on Zed cause of killing whilst searching for a revive point etc. I can't remember what we came up with... -- 03:58, 10 June 2010 (BST)
In AHMH2 all kills were fine except zed vs zed, and RP kills. Survivor vs zed was okay: I killed zombie Nick, Nick killed zombie DDR, DDR killed zombie Obi (Malton Manhunt/image ark). --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 09:06, 10 June 2010 (BST)
That's the one. RP kills (RPs being determined by the Suburb map, groups in that suburb or Cemetries etc) shouldn't count, SvZ ones otherwise are fine, yeah? :D -- 10:44, 10 June 2010 (BST)
That's reasonable. So if you happen to catch someone in zombie form on their way to a RP and you can kill their ass you probably deserve the credit. But RPs should def be off limits.--GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 15:13, 11 June 2010 (BST)

Pointless header

You going to interview us again axey? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 15:54, 9 June 2010 (BST)

Well, I failed for number 2 due to technical problems (PC crashed and was lazy to fix it). If you want me to redo the radio show that I promised for number 2, than sure. I can throw that in. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 23:53, 9 June 2010 (BST)

The rules so far...

  1. No sleeping in Malls. Malls may only be used for resupplying.
  2. You may not enlist the help of anyone not involved in this Manhunt. (ie: Broadcasting on the radio that one of the contestant is KOS.)
  3. Most kills win, whether as a zombie or a survivor. A screenshot must be provided to validate the kill.
  4. No teaming up with other contestants. (ie: Player1 and Player2 may not "tag team" on Player4)
  5. No zerging.
  6. No kills on a contestant will be counted if both players involved was a zombie.
  7. A kill at a Revive Point will not be counted.

Those are your rules so far. Anyone else wanna add something in? Hopefully something worthwhile, not a rule that says you can screw the rules just because you have money...Any new rules you may wish to add must be agreed upon by the other contestants, so no, you cannot just slap it up there. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 01:56, 10 June 2010 (BST)

A Point System

Hey, for this third installation of AHMH, I'm thinking of doing a point system. What I'm thinking is something along the lines of the point system in Super Smash Bros, if you ever played it. So here I am, pitching you guys my idea. If you guys like it, we'll implement this into the rules. Basically, it's the same as the previous installments of AHMH. A kill will score you a point. However, previous installments of AHMH never took into account death count or even reviving an opponent. What I propose is if you get killed, you lose a point. If you get a revive from an opposing contestant, you lose 3 points.

To sum it up:

Killing another contestant: +1
Getting killed by another contestant: -1
Getting revived by another contestant: -3

So, what do you guys think? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 21:09, 10 June 2010 (BST)

Having just been playing SSBB for the past two hours, I like it alot.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 21:14, 10 June 2010 (BST)
I'm also thinking a +2 for a Punch kill... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 21:16, 10 June 2010 (BST)
Personally, I don't like the revied by other contestant loss, it seemes to me that it takes away some of the point of a manhunt as you are rewarding points for non-combatant things.--Michalesonbadge.pngTCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 21:22, 10 June 2010 (BST)
Well, technically you don't get a + for reviving. I just put that in there as another way to attack the others points. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 21:25, 10 June 2010 (BST)
But getting found by your enemy at a revive point should have negative consequences. Since RP kills are disallowed, this allows a way to get back at your opponent, but they benefit. The benefit is hence weighed out by the heavy loss in points.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 21:26, 10 June 2010 (BST)
Aw. Not a fan, I'm afraid. I also tried thinking of variations before, but in the end I decided I really like counting just kills, and this being about who's the most efficient killer. No shenanigans, a game for Real Men. And Susan :D Saying that, I won't oppose, I'll play by any rules you peeps choose, so don't let me spoil the fun :") --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 21:39, 10 June 2010 (BST)
That's why this topic is here. To see if anyone likes it. If no one likes it, we'll stick to the original rules of the previous AHMHs. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 21:46, 10 June 2010 (BST)
I agree. A game for real men. But DDR can still play. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 23:11, 10 June 2010 (BST)
Well, by the looks of it, everyone hates the idea. Let's throw this out than, and burn it with fire. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 23:50, 10 June 2010 (BST)
I would liek a points system too Axe.

Here's my propousal:

Killing another "living" contestant: +2
Killing another "dead" contestant: +1
Getting killed by another contestant: -1
Getting killed by another "dead" contestant: -3
Kills with punches, toolboxes and other cool stuff: +0.5

That way guys with better kpds and whatever can win not just the guy wth most kills.--Obi + Talk!|TZH|MDK 21:21, 16 June 2010 (BST)

July 1st

  1. i'd actually prefer it to start after Biertag but I won't push my luck. -- 04:11, 12 June 2010 (BST)
    Um...How about we change the rules a little? Any kills with a Wine/Beer bottle on that date is worth double? Would that work? --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 04:16, 12 June 2010 (BST)
    I was thinking it over and I have a better idea. How about a 5-day ceasefire period? From July 6th-10th, we can issue a ceasefire, giving everyone some time to find revives and resupply. During this time period, it should be enough time for you to make it to Biertag and back. Of course, we'll extend the Manhunt by 5 days to make up for the killings lost during this ceasefire period. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs (status:Mudkip!) 05:12, 12 June 2010 (BST)
    What happens if I accidently kill someone in the ceasefire? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 11:22, 15 June 2010 (BST)
    Dunno. Either way, I don't want a ceasefire, it breaks flow, I'm happy to send an alt to Biertag. -- 11:36, 15 June 2010 (BST)
    I agree with DDR a ceasefire would break the flow of the manhunt--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 11:55, 15 June 2010 (BST)

What the fuck is this 4x4 rubbish?

I go away for two days to a wedding with a free bar and this happens?

We had 20 "contestants" last time round and had no problem with 3x3. RL always means some jokers will have to pull out. We want concentrated death, not Urban wandering.

I fear I may still be drunk. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 18:35, 20 June 2010 (BST)

It's change, change is coming--Michalesonbadge.pngTCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 19:20, 20 June 2010 (BST)
I'm not so sure about 4x4 either, although I have no experience of how these hunts play out, and I haven't done the maths. 3x3 equals the most action, surely? And 3 down and 4 across would be a good compromise (but then I'm biased against Dunell Hills...) --BOSCH 19:48, 20 June 2010 (BST)

No, but really, I hadn't thought of it but Ross has a point. AHMH2 had indeed 20 people in. There were 43 kills total, bit over one a day, which is good entertainment. I think there's no need to make it slower. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 21:30, 20 June 2010 (BST)
I think you'll find that a lot of AHMH2's contestants were inactive, unfortunately, so the 40 kills was actually a well-rounded amount for the amount of people ACTUALLY playing, so maybe 20 actual contestants would bog it up, dunno, I don't mind this 4x4 stuff, but it's up to AH to choose/vote I guess. -- 03:06, 21 June 2010 (BST)
1x1 for total chaos :D. Seriously! --Obi + Talk!|TZH|MDK 15:51, 21 June 2010 (BST)
Lulz. And yeah DDR, it does look like it'll have more action, this one B) If it's put up to a vote, I'd vote 3x3, but I'm good with 4x4. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 19:20, 21 June 2010 (BST)
Alright, a few things. First, DDR is correct. AHMH2 never actually had 20 contestants since many weren't active during the hunt (myself included). Second, 20 contestants may seem like there'll be a lot of action in a 3x3 area, but by putting it on 4x4, I'm putting more emphasis on the "hunt" part of manhunt. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:49, 23 June 2010 (BST)
So, yea. I guess what I'm trying to say is, I'm promoting hunting. If the field is cluttered, everyone will most likely be running into each other left and right. When the field is not cluttered, you need to use your instincts (or luck...) and hunt down your targets, using only the hints given on their kill shots. There's only so many paths a target can take after killing. ;) --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:52, 23 June 2010 (BST)

Well, it wouldn't be the first time we changed the playing area size. In AHMH1, we knocked out 1 suburb just about mid-way through the hunt because one of the contestants had an alt stuck in a group war in that one suburb. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 14:51, 30 June 2010 (BST)

Six hours to go

I have a few (mostly insignificant) questions to ask, namely:

  • How do we report kills? What's the format? Where do we post it? Are we allowed to hide details or not? Screenshots or witness programs?
  • Is there a chat we can use... I realise we're not going to be coordinating at all, but a place to shoot the breeze whilst we shoot each other might be nice/fun/interesting/distracting/a thoroughly stupid idea?
  • What's it been like in the past with third-parties who view the kills? Have they reported them? Stepped in? Is any explanation necessary?
  • Are we using revive points as listed on individual suburb wikipedia maps as the definitive list of where to get Mrh'd/where not to get shot as a zambah?
  • Crucially, what's the playing area?
  • And finally, not a question, but I made a tinyurl that fits in the link section of a character profile, thought I'd share: http://tinyurl.com/axehacksmaltonmanhunt3

--BOSCH 18:10, 30 June 2010 (BST)

1) A section on this talk page will be created devoted to reporting kills. Just take a screenshot however suits your fancy. Witness programs you could use. As for the details, you can hide them if you want, but since AHMH1, no one has really hid any details. If you opt to hide details, the only detail you cannot hide is the suburb name and building location. AP, on the other hand, can be hidden. 2) There really isn't a chat page/system to use at the moment, except for this talk page. 3) Past Malton Manhunt events had not had any PK reports due to the fact that an explanation was given. Just provide a link to witnesses to the Manhunt page after your kill. 4) Playing area is located on the main page. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 18:20, 30 June 2010 (BST)

Different? Yes. The reason? The area is 4x4. Chances of running into someone? Slim. Best choice of hunting? Use the screenshots as hints. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 19:57, 30 June 2010 (BST)
Wait.. really? We must show the location this time? That's a big difference, Axe, better add it to the rules so people know. Me, I was planning on showing my name, XP, and the "they die" line, nothing more. Especially not the location. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 20:51, 30 June 2010 (BST)

In fairness, most of refer to the manhunt as we kill someone. That last ap wasted with a witty one liner. Most people seem to understand its just a game. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 20:18, 30 June 2010 (BST)

Indeed. I never bothered to actually tell witnesses nothing. Bosch, if getting a bounty worries you, you may want to do what I did last time, which was adding a note to my profile, like "if you see me kill someone, or someone kill me, please see tinyurl.com/AHMH3 before shitlisting either". --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 20:38, 30 June 2010 (BST)
Does anyone even report any more? My PKer has almost 60 kills, some in high profile locations that had dozens or hundreds of witnesses, and I have yet to be reported. I seriously doubt anyone is going to get reported for AHMH3, and if they do, a simple explanation should handle it, since exemptions are made for groups at war and the like, I believe, and we're effectively one-person groups at war with each other.

Honestly, why even worry about a bounty? Should some nosey parker decide to grass any us up for whacking one another, it's simple enough to explain to the mods over on BS the situation. Leniency & common sense will win out, and besides, we have an inside man in the competition anywai in missy, so he'd sort all that out I'm sure.

After a few hours of thinking it over, I have decided that you may censor the map, however, you must leave the suburb name and the corner blocks on the map uncensored. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 22:14, 30 June 2010 (BST)

Using my island picture from above, here's that example:

AHMH3Ex.JPG. As you can see, only the suburb and the corners of the map are censored. The location's name is also censored, as well as the remaining AP. Also, if you're using that minimap (as you see in the lower left) Greasemonkey script, you can go ahead and censor that too. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 23:20, 30 June 2010 (BST)

To be honest, if there is very little use in that much censorship, anyone using a map can find out where you are, it would be best to leave it at no map censorship.--Michalesonbadge.pngTCAPD(╯°□°)╯ ┻━┻ 23:22, 30 June 2010 (BST)

It would take 30 seconds using the location finder on http://map.aypok.co.uk/ to work out the where the screenshot was taken, those four blocks reveal all. Personally, I think it should be upto the individuals claiming the kill to leave in or out as much potential intelligence as much as they wish, with Sophie's suggestion of "name, XP, and the "they die" line" as the bare minimum, but would also see the inclusion of the suburb (and just the suburb) as a compromise? --BOSCH 23:46, 30 June 2010 (BST)

It's come to my attention that all of the contestants in the manhunt have overdue Library books from the Quartly Library. The QSG sends people like me out to retrieve them when our overdue notices have been ignored. I've collected 1 tome so far. How many more will I find? --Hibernaculum 00:59, 3 July 2010 (BST)

I wouldn't go so far as to call those books. I think most books would feel insulted.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 01:25, 3 July 2010 (BST)
Actually, I returned all of my books in person to Quartly shortly before the Manhunt began, given that I knew I wouldn't be able to return them during the period of the Manhunt. They did mention having some computer troubles at the time, and were thus unable to scan them in, but as a Philosophe Knight, I was already on good terms and was assured that they'd work it all out so that I needn't worry about it. Are you now telling me that QSG is too incompetent to even handle some simple book returns, because I would prefer not to think of them as such. Aichon 03:19, 3 July 2010 (BST)
The Librarians at the QSG are an overburdened bunch. We do the best we can in this cold, cruel world. I will put out word to look at the records once more to see if something was missed.

Late entry

I see we have a wee bit of a late entry into the competition. I have no problem with her but maybe it would be a good idea if we formally closed registration now.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 02:02, 1 July 2010 (BST)

Keep it open. Any late registrations will be penalized 1 kill every 3 days that they are late. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:08, 1 July 2010 (BST)
Oh, and any late entries will only have 1 day to get in the playing area or they will be officially DQed. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:09, 1 July 2010 (BST)
Sounds good to me.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 02:09, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I disagree. It's less open to abuse if we accept this late entry as a one-off and close entry from this point on. For the existing entrants not to know definitively who and who isn't fair game seems to be unfair. For example, a late entrant may stalk the playing area for a few days, gaining location info before officially entering, which to be would be unfair regardless of penalties that remove kills. Now we're live, I'd rather know, for sure, who is and isn't on for killing, and I think allowing late entrants is open to abuse and reduces the legitimacy and significance of the event for those taking part (people have had a long time to register to enter, after all!). --BOSCH 02:20, 1 July 2010 (BST)
In that case, late entries must provide a timestamped screenshot of their current location when they signed up for the event. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:32, 1 July 2010 (BST)
That doesn't solve the problem, as they could still scout around for a few days and enter whenever they like. It's still unfair for the existing entrants that someone can enter halfway through, without having declared their intentions before the manhunt start. Further more, it's just makes it less... legitimate somehow. Analogy could be that no-one enters a marathon after it's begun, starting 3 miles back for every hour late they are. With that rule announced after the run has already begun. Could we settle to allow Miss Fatale entry please and then close the books, for the sake of clarity, fairness and competition? --BOSCH 02:50, 1 July 2010 (BST)
Fwiw, I have absolutely no problem with keeping it open with the penalty Axe just set. It seems very fair, and I'd say more targets are always good. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 05:05, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I'm still not convinced. If this is a competition in killing each other, then we should all have the same time frame in which to compete, having known before the start who definitively is a fellow competitor. To allow late entries diminishes the sporting integrity (for want of a better term) of the Manhunt, and damages the confidence in it being a fair game amongst the existing competitors. And that's without yet mentioning the nature of the penalty suggestion, which is both heavy-handed and unwieldy, lacks definition for a clear interpretation in times of arbitration, and was introduced after the game had already begun without player consultation. All in all, I strongly feel that entry should now be closed, that to allow late entrants is damaging, contrary to our competitive aims and potentially open to abuse, and that no penalty that could be imposed is fair or just, either on the existing entrants or the late arrival. --BOSCH 14:00, 1 July 2010 (BST)
On this note, say someone I'm in a building with finds out about the competition. They could join, kill me 30 seconds later, negating the late cost (assuming they enter in the first 3 days), and having been immune for 3 days of the contest. Meanwhile, I'm penalised for being in a building with someone who wasn't an entrant. See what I mean? How about a delay of 2 days before they can gain kills / be killed for points, or something similar.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 14:04, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I agree with Yon's 2 day delay on kills idea and am opposed to the point penalization until after the first 3 days of the competition. I also believe Natasha should be exempt as the rule didn't exist until after she signed up..--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 05:06, 2 July 2010 (BST)
I know, right? Natasha should definitely be exempt from any additional penalties. --Natasha FataleDevil heart.jpg 09:43, 5 July 2010 (BST)
Heh I'm just against the idea of retroactive rules mainly as you entered before the rule was created.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 09:54, 5 July 2010 (BST)
Hmm. personally, wtf @ all of this, if you didn't sign up before the game started you shouldn't be abel to sign up during it :( -- 10:01, 5 July 2010 (BST)
Honestly, I agree. Let Natasha play and leave things as they are, but allow no one else in. Entry should have been closed before the hunt started. We shouldn't be creating rules to deal with what is effectively an oversight on our part. Just close the door and be done with it. Aichon 10:16, 5 July 2010 (BST)

Quick question

Is there a time limit for how long we can hold onto kill shots before posting them? If not, you can bet that some of us will be keeping them all until the end, which isn't exactly fun for everyone else. Aichon 02:23, 1 July 2010 (BST)

Dunno, I just assumed everyone would want to brag about them ASAP ;D -- 02:26, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I'd prefer it if you post them ASAP. Makes it easier to see how many contestants you need to hunt to catch up. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 02:28, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I'd agree, but given the lack of censorship permitted in the screenshots, it makes sense to not post your own until the last minute, that way others can't find you as easily. Basically, consider this line of comments to be a *nudge nudge* that we need a rule for a time limit. Say, within 24 hours after the kill for the screenshot/iwit to count? Gives people time to move while also keeping the death counts decently timely and accurate. Aichon 02:34, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I'd vote for a 24 hour limit.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 02:36, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I'd vote for a 24 hour limit too (although, personally, I think 12 hours would suffice). Also, there's been no ruling on censorship in screenshots, I know ZIPO didn't in the opening kill, but I was intending to. With 24 hours maximum until you have to submit a screenshot, that tight time limit still gives a good indication of when there's been activity? --BOSCH 02:56, 1 July 2010 (BST)
Check here for a ruling on it. We have to leave quite a bit of information uncensored, which makes identifying our location always possible, hence why this is an issue at all. Aichon 03:04, 1 July 2010 (BST)
I'd go for posting immediately, maybe letting people censor their screenies. I'd just like to see the screenies as soon as it happen. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 06:03, 1 July 2010 (BST)
Alright. I think I have an acceptable compromise. Only 2 blocks on the map can be uncensored, and whichever 2 blocks are your choice. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 15:00, 1 July 2010 (BST)

Question about Rule #7

So.

7. A kill at a Revive Point will not be counted.

That's the rule. But say a contestant kills another at a revive point, but both are alive at the time. What then? Yeah, freak occurrence, could never happen... <_< --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 12:37, 7 July 2010 (BST)

I would say it should count. The revive point should be there to protect zombies so that everyone has a reasonable chance to get revived and get back in the game. Otherwise it could be used as a safe-haven for the living, which could be a problem. Especially when you consider that there are some indoor revive points marked on the map that are routinely barricaded.--GANG Giles Sednik CAPD 13:09, 7 July 2010 (BST)
I agree. Still, the rule as written makes no exceptions. Anyway, when the kill is posted, I don't object to it being counted. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 13:14, 7 July 2010 (BST)

It looks to me like DDR chanced his luck in the dark, but had a horrific struggle with the RNG, then Ross took a cheeky potshot later that day, saw he had no hope in hell of finishing you, and left. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 03:38, 8 July 2010 (BST)
Yeah, I tend to agree. Looks innocent enough to me. Just two people managing to find you. Aichon 03:49, 8 July 2010 (BST)

Axe you are indeed the "Better target" I implied I had discovered after I whacked Yonnua. Its my standard practice to knock points of whoever I see and I would have done more If I had more than 8ap left. (I did something similar with kempy on the first day). Plus I hate DDR. --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 09:32, 8 July 2010 (BST)
No penalty given. And seeing that 2 people found me in the same day, I'm guessing my "skim the borders" strategy is getting predictable... --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 15:58, 8 July 2010 (BST)
Yeah, no fucking way I'm working with Ross. In all seriousness, I never told anyone about where you were. I think my massive fail is something I was more than happy to never speak of again to anyone. -- 16:02, 8 July 2010 (BST)


Censorship

someone want to run it by Natasha again? --RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 10:02, 9 July 2010 (BST)

Yeah. As one of the big crybabies about the censorship I didn't even bother with the suburb name, s'cool IMO -- 16:47, 9 July 2010 (BST)

Heads up

If you see me idle out on your contacts list, it most probably means I didn't get enough Internet access during my trip to Taiwan (which I leave for later today). Just a heads up. If I do idle out, I'll leave the judging of this event to DDR, Hib, Aichon, Yon, Sophie, RoryBob, and Zipo (these 7 names I just picked out of a hat, so no complaints, OK?). I ask that these 7 judge the competition if I go absent in a jury-like manner. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 17:14, 9 July 2010 (BST)

I looove Taiwan! Go get dumplings for me! Where will you be? Taipei or the south? Err, sorry to ask you so many questions but I've wanted to go back to Taiwan for years, last time I was there I was an ikkle May. May 05:42, 10 July 2010 (BST)
So you were an April? ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 05:59, 10 July 2010 (BST)
More of a March, really. May 18:30, 10 July 2010 (BST)
Mama Kemps always told me to never play with marches. Said I'd get burnt or something. ~ Kempy “YaketyYak” | ◆◆◆ | CAPD | 18:46, 10 July 2010 (BST)
Just saw this. Do you need less covered up on my screen shots? What was the final decision on what must be shown? I'll fix my old ones and report my new ones in compliance. Also, I guess I need to add my name to the final list of contestants (another one?)...is this about my signature not working properly? *grumbles* damn wiki business --Natasha FataleDevil heart.jpg 04:52, 11 July 2010 (BST)
I'm not clear myself if there's a hard rule on this, tbh. I believe you should at least hint at the location, and you should post the screenie within 24 hrs. Axe said that Giles' editing was perfect [1]. Personally, I've only bothered to hide my AP. And never mind your sig, it's lovely (though it is a bit unwieldly in the code, since it isn't templated, but hey, at least you can sign Grim's page :D). --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 05:43, 11 July 2010 (BST)
The previous discussion over censorship was anything but conclusive. I got the impression we were going with suburb names only, which I think is reasonable, since it gives an area to hunt for the person while being open enough not to give them away. Plus, censorship was never a rule, so it can't really be enforced. Aichon 05:51, 11 July 2010 (BST)
Okay, I fixed my screen shots to include suburb shown. All shots have been reported within the prescribed 24 hour window. --Natasha FataleDevil heart.jpg 06:28, 11 July 2010 (BST)
Oh and safe trip Axe, have a grand journey. Man, I envy you. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 05:48, 11 July 2010 (BST)
Yes yes enjoy your trip.--ZIPO/Talk/◆◆/CAPD 06:34, 11 July 2010 (BST)
I forgot! Don't wear snug fitting items, like belts and watches, or else you'll develop a rash thanks to the extreme humidity and heat. It's pretty nasty. May 01:02, 12 July 2010 (BST)

I'm definitely letting myself idle out for the rest of the competition. I have cousins that play UD, apparently to my disbelief (They were part of PTT). My 7 hand (hat?) picked judges better do a good judging work. I'll examine the judging results from time to time, just to make sure you people judge right. As for your questions, May, I'm currently in Taichung (probably spelt that wrong...Eh...Whatever...The city means Tai-Middle if I did spell that wrong and you get confused), heading to Tainan tomorrow. I'll get you your dumplings, but I won't gaurantee it'll be on me when I get back. ;) --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 15:49, 12 July 2010 (BST)

Full disclosure on outside help received

In the interest of full disclosure, I feel it is necessary to let you know that I unintentionally received some outside aid. Specifically, a member of the Soldiers of Crossman, the group my survivor is in (which operates all around the Northwest of Malton), found Your Own Guilt about 36 hours ago and gave away his location on our private forum since he's a known PKer. I let them know that he's currently not a threat since he's in the same competition my PKer is in, and pretty much left it at that. After all, I knew that even if they attacked him without any prodding or requests from me, it would still look bad if my survivor's group happened to conveniently incapacitate a contestant in the Hunt, and I wanted to be above reproach in all things.

I chose not to act with my PKer on the information that had been given regarding Your Own Guilt's location, and, in fact, I haven't spent any AP at all since I received the information. Of course, my statement that mentioned the competition quickly led to curious questions about the Hunt, and by today a full list of the contestants was posted to the SoC forums by other inquisitive group members (to be clear, it was only the list of names, not locations or other details I shouldn't have knowledge of). My PKer alt was also identified as belonging to me.

Since many of the SoC are now aware of who my PKer alt is, and I did receive some unsolicited information which could have been beneficial to me, I knew I needed to let all of you know what had happened. Obviously, going forward, there's no easy way for any of you to police me since that part of the board is off-limits to non-SoC (and even if access were granted, I'd have no way to prove I wasn't using admin powers to delete evidence). On the flip side of that, however, is the fact that there was no reason for me to disclose this stuff, given that there was no way any of you could have found out. So, I'm hoping you will take this disclosure as evidence of the fact that I'm attempting to maintain my integrity as best as possible and am planning to be upfront and honest regarding everything that's happened so far and anything that might occur in the future.

As I said, it's currently my plan to immediately disclose any forms of aid the SoC might give my PKer in the future, such as revives, FAKs, information, or anything else. I've requested that they not attack any of the contestants (which falls in line with standard SoC policy anyway), and have asked them all to clearly mark any information pertaining to the Hunt or its contestants with spoiler tags so that I know not to read it until after the Hunt is over. Basically, I've done everything I can think of to prevent this or other anything similar from happening again.

Anyway, I'm turning it over to you guys at this point. If you all feel I should remove myself, be disqualified, or take some penalty, I'll abide by the decision. Aichon 08:35, 18 July 2010 (BST)

Well, I'd judge this myself, but I'm still on vacation. And, I also would like to use this opportunity to see if my 7 hat-picked judges were well worth the radnom pick. Well...Technically, to be precise, you're one of those 7...So for a specific case like this, I'll appoint a back up judge from my hat here...Contestant number 4! Will contestant number 4 please step up! --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 09:39, 18 July 2010 (BST)

I judge that your score is unaffected, I gain 20 kills, and Axe Hack has to put a link to me in his sig.--Yonnua Koponen Talk ! Contribs 09:52, 18 July 2010 (BST)
Heh okay. I think there's nothing to be done about this right now. Strictly, any of us could get help by friends, there's no way to police anyone, we already have to trust each other and there's no way around that. So I don't see why we should trust Aichon less than any other competitor. So I trust he won't take advantage of any such help. If a member of his group were to give him the location of a competitor, that'll put him at a disadvantage, because then his integrity won't let him get a kill that he may have got otherwise, so that would be penalty enough in itself. And if he gets healed or revived by a member of his group, I'd say he should bring it up here and we'll agree on a suitable penalty for the particular case. --Sophie ◆◆◆ CAPD 10:02, 18 July 2010 (BST)

No punishment. Anything rule-breaking was out of his control and he's gone above and beyond to make sure it a) it doesn't happen again and b) we aren't affected as PKers by said group. Restecpta -- 11:31, 18 July 2010 (BST)
