Suggestion scope
all humans except for zombies

Suggestion description
It wouldnt make sense that people can't look out of the window in A ZOMBIE GAME. It's great if people could actually look outside and see the thousands of zombies siegeing their hideout. Not only is this realistic, but it also helps the noobs in the game. People without Free Running or people in a building basically surrounded by ruined buildings/no buildings at all will benefit from this skill, especially if there are no VSB buildings around. This should even be useful for a scout with binoculars, because it scans the area surrounding the building, not somewhere far away.

Humans don't REALLY want to step outside into a crowd of zombies and get mauled by them (except for a certain group of cultists), like in a siege (to see how many zombies there are).

This is not really a skill, and all harmanz can use it (using 1 AP). They can stay by the window even after logging out, to basically check on the progress of that zombie trying to break down the barricade without stepping out to waste an AP or deciding to jump out of the window. All of the messages from inside AND outside are recieved by the player. But, all of the occurances outside have outside added to it.

This is very useful for organized groups to use in their strategies (especially guerilla tactics) It is also potentially useful for any PKer in some dark factory that noone goes into...

Also, remember the RPing aspect of it.

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

Kill Votes

1. Kill - Three reasons. 1) Part of barricading means boarding up the windows. 2) This is already in game (sort of) via binoculars. 3) The "no x-ray vision" rule. I would have an easier time with this if it only worked at barricade levels of QSB and below. --Uncle Bill 05:23, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
2. Kill/Change - yes, part of barricading means boarding up the windows but if its ruined, open, or secured then I think that you should be able to do it, but only if its open, ruined, or secured... ------------WOOT 05:53, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
3. No. - Just get a pair of binoculars.--Labine50 ^{MEMS | MHG} 07:10, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Spam/Dupe Votes

1. SpamAnd then the zombies see an unbarricaded window, go "Yum! Stupid harmanz! and plunge their hands though the window. Remember: any gap big enough to see through is big enough to stick a hand through. Do yourself a vavor and put {{removed}} at the top and take this to Talk:Suggestions  Nalikill  ^{TALK  E!  W!  M!  USAI}  05:23, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
2. Dupe - I'm sure this has been suggested before, but still, no x-ray vision.--Karek^maps?! 05:51, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
3. Spam - It is a dupe, its just that all six dupes i found were in the old archives, and they were all spminated or duped and removed from the page, and thus invalid for dupage here. This violates the no x-ray vision part of frequently rejected. --The Grimch ^{U! E! WAT!} 06:01, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
4. Spam - X-ray vision.--  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 06:05, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
5. Spam - Breaks the X-ray vision rule. Don't get me wrong, there are ways to break that rule and still have a good suggestion, but in that case there needs to be a much higher cost to "using" the xray vision, and the Xray vision itself needs to be hampered a lot.--Seventythree^Talk 10:45, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
6. Spam - read here --~~~~ [talk] 10:46, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
7. Spam – X-ray vision = no thank you. ᚱᛁᚹᛖᚾᚨᚾᛏ 10:59, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
8. Dupe - Sight Zombies and windows (what the hell were they thinking on that one? And who struck Grim's vote >:) -- boxy • talk • 11:18 18 November 2007 (BST)

13. Spam - NOT spadoinkle! X-ray vision... please read the dos and donts section and/or put suggestions to help. It is also a DUPE, but I am too lazy to look it up. --WanYao 14:27, 18 November 2007 (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:20071118 Look out of the windows). 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.
