So, another UD thread. Sorry. But this one has a specific purpose. To celebrate the upcoming paperback release of Button Man : The Killing Game lets have one of our own. A Killing Game.
The idea is that those that want to play start a new character. They list that characters name, and what type of character it is. Although they can be called whatever they like their description must start with TKG so that we have a clear identifying marker. We then have to hunt each other down and keep on killing until their is only one player left. Deaths are reported here.
When a character dies that's it, they can't come back as a zombie, they are out of the game and lost forever, no matter how they die. However if you die before the winner is announced you can start afresh with a new character.
It's an excuse to have a Player Killing Rampage but only amongst a select few.
Anyone up for this?
Never really got into UD - is it relatively easy to play, whats the URL?
I like the sound of a Button Man game though.
Very easy to play indeed. It's basically a limited turn role playing game with people moving around the grid finding objects, interacting, having fun, fighting.
We'd be using the board to play out our private vendettas, and it would work best with multiple players to help us narrow down the field. Though it's a large grid you often stumble across people you know and, well, give it a go.

And I have a character!
Rent Treznor. Cop.
Now to kill something!
Or even, figure out what the buggery I do ;-)
Tutorial. Find safety. You can enter any vuilding that is Very Strongly barricaded or less. If you are on the streets when you run out of Action Points you're dead.
Then build up action points so that you can buy skills. You can buy points by attacking someone succesfully, by healing someone, by clearing a building of bodies, by reading a book (sometimes) and so on. When you have a 100 points you can buy skills that come in very usefull.
I will be starting a character tomorrow evening to give you a head start and we'll see how many people join in. Official kick off is Wednseday noon, anyone joining before hand gets a little bonus time to build up their skills.
DXB: Great idea. I'll be up for it.
I'll post character details her ewhen sorted.
Bolt-01
And this is me...
Link: Rent Treznor - rookie!
Great idea, DXB. I'm in. As a further suggestion, how about we have the chance to take two markers (i.e. kills) before a third makes death permanent, and the player must retire from the game? Rather than a one-off quick death... maybe this would make it a bit long-running, but if you get killed by another player you have the opportunity to get revived and hunt in down in a cat-and-mouse game worthy of Button Man...
Screenshots of warnings and kills would be a good idea, and players should keep a record of remaining markers in their profile.
Thoughts?
Link: TKG Johnny Dial
Do you know danger? Do you know fear? Do you know death? If you do then you're one of the very few to have survived meeting...
Link: TKGLionelBlair
As for rule modifications...whatever the majority want we'll go for. Wednesday noon is the official kick off so we've got til then to decide how we play.
sounds good - so can we start powering up our characters - and so long as I dont meet my other self, i wont mess up my long standing survivor?
If were all new characters, shouldnt we all "start together" - eg register them on the same day, so theres no chance to get a quick advantage?
Or should I register someone fast and start building them up!
Also, I reckon that if we are talking low level characters, theres a good chance we'll be wiped out before anyone meets - maybe only a verified TKG on TKG "Kill" counts - you could take a screenshot to prove it. Otherwise, you have say two days to revive or your out of the running (to stop people hiding as zombies) - if everyone is on everyone elses contacts, you could keep track of who was dead at any given time
Actually that makes sense. Death only counts if you die at the hands of a living TKGer, anyone?
OK - heres little old me - though without free running, were all doomed i tell ye!
Link: http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=666602
How about adding in the tracker device from Button Man III? At the end of each day's play (starting Wednesday), you report in your position. Only which town you're in, obviously, not which building...
A good idea. I was thinking last night that maybe we should have a limited grid. If we limited ourselves to a single suburb we'd still have a hundred squares to use and, well, we'd have some action instead of protracted search.
Johnny Dial already bought the farm! I forgot what a pain not having free-running is, and dropping a new character in territory recently occupied by a zombie horde wasn't a great start. However, a bit of shuffing got me to a revive point, where I was stuck with a syringe by none other than Tharg the Mighty! Cheers, Green Bonce!
The very same thing happened to me last night...
In which case why don't we all make our way to Dakerstown (which last time I was there was pretty quiet) and start the game next week?
A;righty then. Lost my map link when my Harddrive crashed. Any help?
DXB, the normal UD suburb map is here:
http://map.aypok.co.uk/index.php
But here's a link to Funt's fantastical tactial map...
Link: Funt's tactical map
Just keep going West & North till you reach the top corner.
On my way. Are wewaiting for an official start next week, or should we wait till we are all there before Starting.
Must remember to move my dormant alt from that burb as well...
Bolt-01
Are you sure one burb will be enough? If there are 10 or more players in an area with 50 buildings, you'll be tripping over one another!
I like the reporting in as to which burb your in - then you can choose who youre after, and know who is on your tail - so long as everyones honest!
Up for it and dead already. See you at the party!
Link: Florian TKG
How about Dakerstown and the surrounding 'burbs?
I'm ready to bring the pain.
Link: Tarka the Rotter
What about Judgewood and the 9 surrounding - just to add a bit more space to it without it being too huge a map?
8 surrounding - me idiot!
I like Dakerstown & surrounding as that's only 200 buildings and thus a realistic chance of catching each other. What do others think?
Also, does some kind experienced neutral character with the ability to revive zeds fancy making their way over there?
::"Funt's fantastical tactical map..."
I'm going to steal that name, you know.
I have two versions:
Tactical Beta B (http://www.amenable.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/metatac/%22%20target=%22_blank)
(Overlay version - you can use the magic buttons to switch things on and off - but no close-up of single 'burbs. Fetch your specs, luv.)
(Both perversely work best in IE6, and the transparent overlays do something odd in Safari.)
I have a character based in southern Judgewood that I'd be willing to have handle revives. Anyone willing to assist, make your way to the self-proclaimed Peet Nation.
It's a 5-block zone not connected to any other buildings in Malton. It's got a NecroTech (14,19: The Peet Building), an entry point (15,19: St. Basil's Church) and three safehouse blocks at EHB.
The revive point would be Gamlen Plaza (14, 20) - actually in Chudleyton, so neutral territory.
Would that be okay and has anyone got a spare character to help with a) keeping Peet Nation secure and b) revives for The Killing Game?
Thats a good idea - an unbiased reviver would make things a lot simpler
That's assuming the server ever comes back online.
What is it with servers this week?
Ok, I can't enter this one, though it sounds good- although Bella Bagley, my Celebrity PKing scumbag, would love to join in.
However, I can send Dog Deever up to help at the revive point- he can manufacture syringes too.
What the hell...as long as he survives longer than my other characters...
See you in Dakerstown.

Mr. Deever, sah! Some fuel for the gennie would be much appreciated - I just spent 50AP searching the local Auto Repair and ended up with a large collection of luverly crowbars.

I'm in Judgewood by the northern NecroTech building- out of AP's and no Auto shop in sight. Can't play till late tomorrow, but I will have loads of AP's for looking tomorrow.
I also have a syringe of goodness for one lucky, lucky dead buttonman.

Ok - Everyone is on my contact list now, for easier revives. Funt- I've got some fuel, but out of AP's. I'll be in the safehouse tomorrow, with fuel and should be able to revive you spuggin' rotters!
Anyone know this chap?

It's Bad Andy, I think. Kill 'im, quick! ;-)

He's providing a service to Malton as a bounty hunter and killing Pkers. As a good SD Agent should.
I knew it'd be someone 'round here. BTW Andy it's 'custard' not 'custurd' unless you have your own special ingredient!
Depends if you're trying to say it with a Scottish inflective or not, I guess.
Apologies, I should be reading in character. Ya bass.
Yup he's an alternative character of one of the Necronauts. I have another Stront looking to join up with him- any clues to his whereabouts? Obviously- don't give his exact position away, just a Suburb will do.
Helpmaboab! I've been killfiled!
I couldn't possibly give away tactical information of that nature. I'd be a real creeping jungle rope thing in a city if I were to give it away!
Nuts!
TKGMalcolm has been nixed by a zed!I'm currently in Grigg Heights,moving north toward Dakerstown...

Thank you for the in transit heals. Keep forgeting that I've yet to get free running so I keep stepping outside and getting chewed up.3 suburbs east - that is if the killing ground has been finally determined?

Hi chaps
TKGHarryRamsden(deceased) is standing 1 block to the east of the required point. Any chance of a revive from there?
PS I just tried attacking some bloke and couldn't hit him in 20 goes! I'd forgotten how frustratingly dumb newbie avatars can be...
Much obliged funt
Bolt-01 standing at the revive point.
Question: When do we start the game proper? Are we allowing two weeks to gather skills?
Bolt-01
Might be a good idea - without at least free running, your options are very limited, so a chance to build yourself up wouldnt go amiss
(and I feel guilty about already having got free running!)
TKGBolt-01 up and running (or rather revved and collapsed).
TKGHarryRamsden - haven't got to you yet - had to 'cade up the church and now out of AP.
Went out to look for you, Ramsden- but I couldn't see you anywhere- let me know where you are and I'll get you tomorrow!
Went to get more fuel too, but that Auto repair shop is shit- found three crowbars!
Standing at the revive point now! Keep getting killed!
Thank Funt for revive!
I'm currently hiding while I get a heal then trying to find my bearings.
Bolt-01
I thought we'd started! Just as well I haven't brutally murdered anyone yet, I suppose.
Currently sharpening my axe one square away from the live area.
Could'nt find you, Harry Ramsden- I take it your alive now. By my estimations TKGMalcolm is still dead... you any nearer to Gamlen?
Dog Deever-I was revived but was brutally dragged from my hiding place and butchered again!
Am currently at Gamlen awaiting revive.
Cheers!
M.
Oh,TKGMalcolm is I in case it's not clear...
M.
Ok, Malcolm- revived now!
Guys, if this is still going, TKG Tarka the Rotter is at Gamlen Plaza now.
How about letting the killing commence this Saturday (starting at midnight UK time)?
Sounds good. If in a public place, we should make an announcement before offing anyone, so this doesn't look like random PKing. Three markers lost an' yer out!
Okay, I'm in. Sat midnight it all starts.
Bolt-01
Sharpening my axe as we speak...Bolt01 is the only other TKGer I've seen so far.The rest just hiding?
M.
Malcolm: I'm moving asap and finding somewhere new while I get a bit of levelling done.
Would the dead buttonman at Gamlen...
please stand up!
Might be an idea to go over the rules again!
UP!!
Revived!
Remember- 10AP's to stand up, so give yourself plenty time if you're short (altough not physically, unless you're physically short AND have low AP's!). You're perfectly safe whilst you're lying down.
Just to confirm-When you say 'Midnight Saturday' you mean Saturday night into Sunday morning or Friday night into Saturday morning?
I'm just keen ta stitch you loose Buttons :)
(some chance...)
So what day do we broadcast our locations?Saturday?Mid week?
M.
Saturday night into Sunday morning - if you're online at that time you probably deserve the head start.
seconded.
Supoib!
I still have this as the complete list of Button Men:

TKG Karl Heinrich
TKG Penguin
TKG Tarka the Rotter
TKGBolt01

I've got TKG Harry Powell for the game. He o.k. to use?
If you stick your profile link up here, I'll be able to recognise you for revives. (Me and Dog Deever are running a neutral revive clinic.)
Is it one death, then you're out; or three deaths? Screengrabs and stuff would be needed for confirming kills.
I thought 3 markers,three kills.Might Lengthen the game too,but I don't mind.
TKGMalcolm has been zedded once more, shuffling to Gamlen for a revive...

First fatality is Karl Heinrich at the hands of Johnny Dial:
Warning

Gah! I knew post opening would be the death of me one day!
Sorry, Watcher - Karl Heinrich's plastic palm tree disguise didn't fool Mr. Dial for long. Better luck next time!
Thank funt for that- thought with the way my luck has gone in the game thought it'd be me!

I got killed by a zombie. Iâ??m outside of St. Basilâ??s Church could you revive me?
How do you get the screen shots from Urbandead?
Ctrl PrtSc & paste into paint.
TKG Penguin has been munched by zombies. Currently in Dakerstown, will head to revive point tomorrow.
I'm fuppin deaded by zeds again!
And hang about...how come Ming has an isometric view?And is the game not meant to stay in Dakerstown?
M.
That's the view you can get if you use Firefox instead of internet explorer.
Got killed in Jensontown and was heading South West.
No,I meant TKG...
I'm at Gamlen plaza awaiting that revive... may have bitten one of you chaps, but I dont apologise - dead - gah!!
TKG Karl Heinrich revived.
(As a neutral observer, I thought the game was going to be Dakerstown, Jensentown, Roywood and Judgewood - which is why I chose this location as a revive point.)
Please replace those images with something smaller - for the sake of bandwidth everywhere.
Didn't it get extended to all the suburbs around Judgewood- a 9 block square, also taking in Quarlesbank, Gatcombeton, Peddlesden Village, Chudleyton and Darvall Heights? This would make it legit kill, so I guess it would be an idea to establish the parameters in this 'test case'.
Might be an idea to trim maps, building descriptions and equipment from screenshots anyway, so as not to give out too much information! (Cheeky graffiti left in earns style points!*)
* Unless it's crap.
Didn't it get extended to all the suburbs around Judgewood- a 9 block square
I thought it was just the four in the top left corner.
I don't think there was a definitive decision about the location, but I thought the last thing mentioned was the 9 'burbs around Judgewood, and as no-one disagreed, I went with that. Seems Karl Heinrich did, too ;-)
Having a smaller area would make it easier (or more dangerous) so the four in the top left corner would be okay as far as I'm concerned - we just need to decide.
I purposely left the location in the screenshot as I thought giving a hint to other Buttonmen about possible locations to hunt may add to the cat-and-mouse aspect of this. I thought this might be good, especially with a huge area involved, but if we scale things down... One other thing - with more than half of the Buttonmen involved are zeds or dead civilians (they were last time I looked), the chances of actually running into anyone you want to have a pop at are remote. So, shall we go for the 4 'burbs in the NW?
Oh - and the screenshot was just Apple-Shift-4 and drag the crosshairs; none of this 'paste into paint' rubbish :-)
Ah...my voice hadn't told me that.
Four 'burbs might make it easier...
M.
TKG Harry Powell - stand up so I can revive you.
I've been revived by Dog Deever.
I almost got TKGBolt01.
Crap! deaded by a zed again! Which idiot suggested Dakerstown, anyway?
Ran out of AP did ya Harry? Lost yer bottle more like!!
Bolt-01- hiding again.
Lost my bottle indeed! Them fighting words.
The second Buttonman to be struggling with his shoelaces from now on is Malcolm:

Sorry Mikey!
Revive needed please - am at the point

Oh,and TKGMalcolm is awaiting revival at Gamlen...

Hi Guys, sorry to miss the off but I was sunning my trigger finger in Sicily for two weeks. The under nourished Florian is at Gamlen and although alive he has single diget health, an infection and no medical supplies - tremble in fear of this wounded animal! A couple of pick-me-ups would be most gratefully received!
Florian is revived - the other bod needs to stand up to get their medicine.
TKG Penguin has been killed by zeds again.
The only other player I've seen was Malcolm but he was so close to the revive point I felt sorry for him. That & low ap.
TKG Tarka The Rotter just had a lucky escape as Harry Ramsden ran out of ammo...
The third Buttonman to be waving a finger in the air like he just don't care is Harry Powell:
Warning
Kill
TKG Penguin at Gamlen awaiting a revive please.
Well,thanks TKGPenguin-you're obvioulsy a killer with a heart...
That Ming character is gonna get some hurtin if I catch up with him!Three bloody kills already?That's one skilled Button...
M.
Thanks for the revive funt. Florian still a bit wheezy and profering a note from Matron. Has the killing ground been universially agreed and can we hid out elsewhere for foraging, AP accumliation etc.?
Surely we can't leave the killing ground at all - otherwise I could just hide elsewhere in Malton and only emerge when there was only one person left?
At the 'official' start at the weekend, I was keeping in the eight 'burbs around Judgewood, but now I though we were all sticking to the four in the north-west?
No sneaking in and out of the killing zone! That would just make it too easy to stay out of harms way. A shame there are no malls for re-supply, but them's the breaks.
All agreed?
Yup, Top four for me.
Bolt-01
Okay-doaky.
The revive point is 1-square outside of the 4-square play area - but I figure that makes sense.
Ah - this makes me think of The Killing. Secondary weapon - time bomb!
I hope that doesn't make us two of the despots.
Anyone seen a barber?
Actually, the Killing is a good idea.
We could arrange a week long event where folks could register any character of theirs (goodness knows there are plenty of us with characters all maxed out) who then enter a four suburb square for a last man standing event.
The main criteria would have to be that only the characters logged on the thread could be targetted, so only one each.
An Idea for after TKG has finished?
TKG Tarka The Rotter just had a lucky escape as Harry Ramsden ran out of ammo...
Phew. I hadn't looked at him for a couple of days and you were the second person to have a crack. Thank goodness for all those helpful bystanders to heal me!
Tarker had a bite at Florian but was happily shooed away by my Brian Gloveresque shovel wielding pals. The lack of experience means a clean kill will be tough, especially with a full load of HP.
Gah, Johnny Dial's like some kind of lvl colossus. I never stood a chance.
I'm outside of St. Basil's Church if anybody could revive me.
Thanks in advance.
Johnny Dial's been a bad, bad, buttonman. Again. Apologies to Tarka the Rotter...

If anyone could oblige, Tarka the Rotter's at the revive point just now. He had a crafty bite of TKG Penguin on the way...
Thanks for the revive, Funt.
TKG Penguin will be back on his feet in no time & after Tarka's bite happy shenigans aiming to get Tarka's marka.
Ah, Johnny Dial was the first player I've found, and he is quite well kitted out.
Bolt-01- ran away after scratching him!
And I had to run away again! He founds me!
Bolt-01- a long way from where he was and likely to be a zombie tonight!
Tarka needs another revive if possible. It were a zombie wot got him this time round. I had a good pop at Karl Heinrich before I got deaded though.
Yes, you axe wielding fiend - I've got your number!
Karl Heinrich...sorry. Don't know how to screen grab but I've offed him.
Hit the 'Print Screen' key on your keyboard and paste it into paint. Crop off any unwanted shite and save- voila!
Tarka the Rotter revived.
That Lionel Blair - he's a maniac! Karl Heinrich's had a bad run so far, eh? Did you do some kind of fiendish Give Us A Clue skit before you offed him?
I can confirm TKGs kill - now I'm a desperate man! (well, zombie)
Harry Ramsden's standing in Meecham Plaza, swaying and dreaming of a revive.
Im at Gamlen Plaza - Though I think staying dead might be a better option!
Tarka the Rotter makes his first kill and Harry Ramsden's had his chips...
Johnny Dial's just plain mean, I must admit. Lionel Blair's twinkling toes are now pointing skywards (sorry 'bout that, DXB!):

Ah, I thought Harry Powell would be the man to get me. I ran out of Ammo whilst taking my temper out on him.
Remind me - revive point? I've got two markers left.
Gamlen Plaza, just South of the Peet building iirc
Burb?
The very northern edge of Chudleyton: Gamlen Plaza [14, 20].
Thanks to both of you. Will toddle along the morrow.
Thank heavens you ran out of ammo as you almost had me.
Also, youâ??re rather menacing â??Iâ??ll get you yet! â??Style message made me laugh.
Dead again! Not many secure buildings in the greatly named Roywood. I wish I could be alive every day!
I'm at Gamlen if someone would be so kind. Cheers.
Top service! Thanks Funt I'll dedicate my first kill to you. Expect this honour in late 2008.
Don't worry - its safer being dead!
Already need a revive after checking out the zombie strewn sights of Jensentown..
Better than losing my last marker though! ;)
Seems likely to be quiet for a day or two, with only Johnny Dial, Penguin, Tarka and Harry Powell alive at the moment... Is Rent Treznor still playing?
TKG Bolt01 revived.
What's happened to Oddboy recently- anyone know?
I thought he might be up for this.
TKGMalcolm is at Gamlen-freakin zeds everywhere!
I've only had a pop at Harry Ramsden-obviously softened him up for a kill...
M.
Cheers Dog. I'll be up and about later.
Bolt-01
malcolm- you're lying down. This has happened a lot. If someone is nipping out and killing zombies waiting for revives, let us know who did you in- we can have a quiet word with them inside to get them to stop, or else send them out to spend some time as a zed there, and make sure they get the same treatment!
I'd just like to say a big THANKS to Mr Deever and Funt for running this revive service* - it really does make this little game work. Cheers, fellas!
* not that I plan on being a client any time soon ;-)
Thanks and I'll keep that in mind Dog...
Yeah - I stuck some graffiti up saying "be nice to the zeds waiting for a revive", but I'm pretty sure that our little home-from-home is being used by a bunch of noobs as an XP-harvesting base.
We'll certainly have words with anyone taking out non-rotters.
I think this is an accurate scoreboard:
Name (Fingers Lost)
Rent Treznor (0)
Johnny Dial (0)
Karl Heinrich (2)
Penguin (0)
Tarka the Rotter (1)
Bolt01 (0)
HarryRamsden (1)
LionelBlair (1)
Florian (1)
Malcolm (1)
Harry Powell (1)
Any corrections welcome - especially of anyone who's not taking part anymore. Plus, I assume that buttons are keeping a note of their number of kills - it's difficult to keep track as I don't know whose (2000AD) username fits which (UD) character name.
That looks right to me. Trent Reznor may be out, as he's been a zombie since the off, and hasn't gained any XP. Of course he
may just be hiding in a doorway somewhere until the odds are reduced in his favour...
Meanwhile, I'd suggest Buttons keep a track of markers remaining and those taken in their profile (like wot Johnny Dial's been doing), just so we can keep track easier.
Link: A pocket full o' fingers
There was a bit of conversation in my last safe house lamenting the amount of PKing going on in the area these days. DO THEY MEAN US?
They surely do!
Well here is the evidence of a classic toe to toe scrap. No fingers exchanged but it left me dead to infections and Malcolm with only a heartbeat left. Not telling where he is though!
Bit confused to find that I've just been offed by Johnny Dial. Wasn't I still a zombie? Thought you had to be alive to be killed?
Zombies can be 'killed', but then they just stand up again as zombies.
Oh..duh...I see what you mean.
Sorry about the confsuion. I believed that under the rules of the game it only counted as a marker/kill if the character was dead. I don't remember being revived.
I'd agree that zombie kills shouldn't count - talk about kicking a man when he's down!
Sorry to be a pest, but I'm back at Gamlen again. Please?!
Florian and Heinrich revived
Cheers Dog, 'preciate it.
No probs!
Infamy!, infamy!, etc. Obviously, both Buttons have to be alive at the time a marker is taken.
DXB, Johnny Dial has killed Lionel Blair ONCE (see up the thread) and I certainly wouldn't be taking a pop at anyone in a zombie state. Hope that's clear. I don't know where the confusion has come in; I've not seen you since I dumped you and your twinkling toes in the street earlier this week! (and you were alive when we first met...)
TKG Harry Powell has had another unfortunate *accident* this morning. Johnny Dial now has more fingers than he knows what to do with.

Sorry, I got confused by the delay in posting. I thought I'd been killed twice...so I've lost one marker?
S'right.
Saw Harry last night but didn't have the AP to have a go. Ran away and woke up as a bloody Zed again!
I'll be back at Gamlen tonight, but due to Lancaster I probably won't be able to do much then till sunday.

TKG Penguin dead again by zombie. One west of Gamlen at the moment.
Spent the day yesterday waiting until I had enough ap to get Tarka who was two buildings away only to lose him!
Restocked syringes, but out of AP's- should be able to do some reviving later.
Florian-you're dead!No,really.Check your player...
I ca't get the screen grab up-I'm in work and will upload later.Unless Florian confirms his dead status

talk about me fish jumping into your boat! If I hadn't announced my intentions I'd of had enough gas to finish you off. Still the last pinkie won't go so fast - haha!
Back at Gamlen if some kind soul would do the honours (yet again).
Deever get your ass out of Peet - doors are open and zeds are piling in.
Cheers, got out after shutting doors and starting a makeshift barricade. No ammo at the moment, but Florian is revived. Tomorrow we will reclaim the building and kick dead ass out (I hope!)
Finally awake and standing in Meecham....
bloodyTarkaneverlikedhimanywaygivemeRingOfBrightWateranyday...
TKGMalcolm is dead once more...but isn't at the revive point and he's going on sabbattical for a week's rest away from 'puters.So play fair!
M.
TKG Penguin takes his first marker.
Try again.
Bolt-01, back at Gamlen...
Bolt's revved up and ready to go. The revive service might get a little bit patchy - we have a slight case of the undead.
Im back too - bloody infection and raided hospitals... getting a bit hairy in the NW isnt it?
Penguin is now missing part of a flipper. He was being chewed by a zed when I found him, so Johnny Dial felt a bit bad (in fact he tried to deal with the zed first, but he was a big bugger with a flack jacket and he couldn't deal with 'em both - them's the breaks, I guess).

Gah. Well, that's me and The Watcher on our last markers. Oooooh, someones going to pay for this.
I've updated the 'fingers missing' list:

Should be right, but unless Rent Treznor speaks up, we should probably take him off the list.
Gah - I'll try again:

Cheers Funt. Off to play
Aaaargh! You go away for two days and you get bleedin' zombificated. Back at Gamlen now if someone could oblige.
The revive point is currently under new (undead) managment.
Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible.
We apologise for the inconveniance...and the blood.
One dead Dog at Gamlen- my own stupid fault!
The game is undergoing a bit of retooling - does anyone know what good knocking and gesturing do a zombie? Is it simply a way of co-ordinating attacks for large hoards?
Uhm...Dog - I don't think I have you on my contacts - can you stick your link up here so I can revive you. I have 1 syringe left, and I need help 'cading.
Ok, here it is...
Link: Dog Deever
That's you. The church is open, and I think the rest of Peet Nation is caded - I'm staying at Lockwood Crescent School because our usual haunt has lights on.
When you get up Dog, it'd be great if you could bring Tarka the Rotter back to life too...
Cheers Funt! Inside now- barricaded Peet a bit, there's a zombie inside with hp's in the 50's- one survivor as well- Chiang Ching.
Sorry, Cosh- no syringe, but I'm working on it! Will try to get to you tomorrow, but it will be after t-time, though i should have plenty AP's by then, and at least one syringe, hopefully. At least your marker is safe whilst you're dead!
TKG Penguin has been PKed by The George W, a member of the Viper group.
Git.
Johnny Dial took a marker from Harry Ramsden, wrapped in newspaper, naturally.
apology

Anyone who fancies some XP's could consider topping the zombies inside the Peet Building before legging it to hide from other buttonmen- even a few shots would greatly assist in getting the revive point up and running.
Funt- perhaps we should temporarily relocate, as the zeds outside Peet are 'mobbing up' and the genny is gone, Roadnight Auto is also totally garbage for searching for fuel, maybe heading North, more central to TKG game? What do you reckon?
Good idea - Judgewood look safest - let's scout out the NTs up there.
For now, TKG button men should check out the revive points on the barricade map for Judgewood (scroll to the bottom of the page) at http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Judgewood
The Gamlen Plaza revive point is officially closed.
Logged in this morning to find Johnny Dial working his button magic on me! needless to say I legged it as I'm not in any shape to get into a duel at the moment.
Bumped into Karl Heinrich on my way to... elsewhere.
Bolt-01
OK- I'm in the Perceval Building- in North Judgewood- there are plenty survivors here, it's powered and there are plenty of resource buildings round about. Low on AP's and out of syringes right now, but I can stock up tonight.
Sound ok?
I can send in my non TKGing player to clear out the Peet if you need help?
Me too. I've got a charcter that can be there tonight.
bolt-01
Okay:
New revive station: the Perceval Building [14, 11] in North Judgewood.
New revive point: a cemetery [16, 11] in North Judgewood.
---
Watcher - thanks for the offer, but it looks like Peet is the target of an organised gang of undead - and the other survivors nearby aren't organised enough to resist the incursion. Feel free to help us out up in Judgewood, though.
Peet is cleared at the mo. And caded back to strong.
Bolt-01- just realising he's wasted his time. I'mm moving back tomorrow, but I'll keep the character in striking distance.
TKG Penguin ran into both Harry Powell & Johnny Dial & was then faced with the decision of who to take down. Harry Powell, who's lost two markers already or Johnny Dial who has no floppy fingers in his marigolds?
Sorry Mr Dial. If it's any consolation I gave Harry a swift chop of the fire axe in passing.
I'm almost relieved to have lost a marker, to be honest. Only Bolt01's still in possession of all his fingers now. Let's all gang up on him! ;-)
I'm afraid to say I've just exed Harry Powell - didn't realise it was your last finger, or I would have said something suitably evil
Sorry, Harry, but us people with 2 fingers down have to take their kills where they find them!
Am I really the only one with all my fingers? Bloomin' ada!
Bolt-01- hidin'
Well Johnny Dial's got *lots* of fingers, but they're not all attched to his hands...
By my reckoning, the latest scores on the doors are:
Name (Fingers Lost)
Johnny Dial (1)
Karl Heinrich (2)
Penguin (1)
Tarka the Rotter (1)
Bolt01 (0)
Harry Ramsden (2)
Lionel Blair (2)
Florian (2)
Malcolm (1)
Harry Powell (3) The first Buttonman to be eliminated.
I'm back!And the Percival Building if'n someone can bring TKGMalcolm back online...
M.
Have I lost two? Are you sure?
Lionel, if you look back up the thread, Johnny Dial and Penguin have both taken a little celebrity souvenir. Sorry 'bout that!
Tarka's been munched by the Zeds again. If one of you chaps can oblige I'd be very grateful.
I reckon Penguin only took out Johnny Dial because I'd softened him up...
Meant to add: I'm at the cemetery next to the Percival building. Cheers.
Heh, I donâ??t know which is worse, that Iâ??m the first out or that I never got to take someone elseâ??s marker.
O well, thereâ??s always next time.
My other characterâ??s a zombie right now but when heâ??s revived I could up to help out, if that would be any help?
Karl Heinrichs luck held out...which is very bad news for Lionel Blair.
Suggestion for TKG2 - Team Death Match!
Tarka's back in the land of the living. Which is bad news for Karl Heinrich...
I also came across a previously unannounced button man: Australian PM John Howard. As I hadn't heard him mentioned before, I kept my axe to myself and walked on by.
Good suggestion on TKG2, DXB.
Also, any help at the revive point is good- killing zombies, reviving barricadeing, and helping to heal up fingerless buttonmen.
Had a swipe at Johnny Dial but had to kill off Florian as I didn't have enough AP's to flee any distance. The last finger will be earned, not donated!
Pah - one swipe with an axe and then Florian dived out the nearest window? I expected Buttonmen to be made of sterner stuff, man!
Team Deathmatch sounds great!
GAh - I knew that wasnt the safest place to hide - should ahve followed my instinct and moved on before i left work!
Now im totally dead, i'll come and help man the revive - where is it at the mo?
TKG revive station: the Perceval Building [14, 11] in North Judgewood.
TKG revive point: a cemetery [16, 11] in North Judgewood.
(tbh, I'm surprised that a bunch of you didn't gang up on the most successful button men - like wot they did in the strip vs. Harry Exton.)
Team up?Pah!We're all individuals here,aren't we?
TKGMalcolm is shuffling toward the cemetary for a revive then...

The Zombie JudgeXDredd burst into the Billet PD in PitneyBank and set about savafing and infecting as many survivors as possible. Then, with recognition flooding through his dead synapses he stood before a tall, green figure. Huh? He felt unable to attack, his hunger sated bu the raw thrillpower emanating from THE MIGHTY ONE. He turned away and snacked on the next living being.
If anyone wants to earn a Krill Tro Thargo nip over and help green genes afore the stomm hits the fan.

Harry Ramsden is now sleeping with the fishes, and not in the fun Troy McClure way.
On an unrelated bit of business the resting Dreddful took a PK hit - who upset these tits then?!
As for poor old Florian he's looking for an act of kindness at the Judgewood revive point. Many thankyous.
Johnny Dial recently made Penguin more symmetrical by removing a second flipper. Sorry 'bout that, but the game's the game.

Alas Tarka's fish sleeping is now permanent. I did have a pithy remark but was too eagar to get chopping to save it.
You dirty rotter button. I was just lying low before nipping back to finish off Malcolm. Curses.
Hee-hee - care to divulge that location? Could it be within 5 blocks of your location? Hmmm (rubs chin)
That's quite scary - As I've been away for the last eight days, I'd left my character dead and withdrawn from the game... how did he wake up for you to kill him? Odd..
"back to finish off Malcolm"

Alas a sleepy Bolt with 6APs awoke to find Florian twiddling his thumbs and shot them off. Florian bows out lamenting a two week honeymoon which left him with an axe against shotguns. Boo-hoo, I know. WP all, and congrats to the winner.
Sorry Florian to be the button that finished you off. Third time is the last time though.
Bolt-01- Glad he signed on when he did. It is like gladiator for Narcoleptics this!
Buttons still in the game, with pulses:
Bolt01
Johnny Dial
Malcolm
Buttons who need to get revived / stand up so we can finish this thing:
Lionel Blair
Penguin
If we want to have a quick finish we could all converge on one suburb,chosen by a dead TKG player.
I'm content to carry on as we are mind. Haven't seen anyone else since Tarka had a pop...
M.
If we want to sort a date for the finale towards the end of the week to allow for stocking up then I'm up for a last man standing extravaganza!
Bolt-01
That seems to be a good idea. I was thinking a similar thing myself. Top left corner suburb, starting Monday?
That sounds good. Are we declaring a ceasefire until then, or is it business as usual?
Yeah-i'll go for that.
Dakerstown, Monday 27th November @ 0:00hrs then?All those in favour, raise your (finger deficit) hand.
M.
Penguin is up & about & heading towards Dakerstown hoping that a ceasefire is declared until then as a knackered laptop is severely restricting his movements. That & no flippers.
Okeydokey - all surviving Buttonmen holster your weapons and be in Dakerstown by Monday. No killing (or nibbling) before then. Once Monday rolls around, we all stick to Dakerstown and Dakerstown only. We may need to get a M*A*S*H unit there for the odd revive, but given the number of fingers we have left, not many.
TKGBolt-01: On my way.
Dog Deever - if you're still operating, I'm dead at the revive point.
Malcolm. Theres a pair of Zeds in with you. Truce till Monday so I'll help you if I can.
TKGBolt01
Lionel Blair is in the top left corner of the top left corner suburb, wondering where would be a better place to be revived from.
Er... so am I!?!
'preciate that Bolt,bu I've been zedded-was nowhere near a 'puter yesterday to escape...
I'm at a local revive point with 38 other zeds at the moment.Never know yer luck.
M.
TKGMalcolm's at Meecham Plaza,north of Perceval Building awaiting revive.
Or is there a new revive point up Dakerstown way?
M.
A friend of mine says his character has just pulled out of Darkerstown. He says a Nazi group, which his group had wiped out, has decided to stay dead and team up with an undead group in Darkerstown in an attempt to turn the suburb into a 'dead zone'. High on their list is the closure of the suburbs only Necrotech facility. This might be a dangerous place to play out the 'final episode'.
Dog Deever has gone South a bit in an effort to get revived. Hopefully he should be back up over the weekend. With syringes (with luck!).
If Dakerstown is dead infested, maybe we should change venue.
How are the other three top corner suburbs looking?
M.
Oh, Malcolm is actualy at the Methuen Monument, not Meecham Plaza awaiting revive
Should I move?
Judgewood is probably in the best shape (at least according to my recent wanderings through Roywood and Jensentown); NE Dakerstown may be okay but the rest is a train-wreck. Shall we reconvene in Judgewood? Johnny Dial can try and get Peet back online, if it isn't already. Thoughts?
No objections from me for Judgewood.
Or does 'the finger' have the place booby trapped? ;p
m.
Mmmm, boobies... No, no tricks, but I'll scout around a bit to make sure the place looks okay 'cade-wise, and I'll check out Peet. Jensentown might be okay as well, so someone just decide and let the rest of us know. Bolt? Penguin? Lionel? Any preferences?
I'm happy with wherever- just need a damn revive at the moment. I'm at the Cemetary 8, 13 in Jensen.
Bolt-01
You mean 13, 8? JD will spread the word locally.
Gah - I mean 18, 3.
Never mind; spotted you and posted a request in the local NT. Good luck!
Cheers Ming!
Bolt-01
I'm currently alive with a few syringes, so meet me outside the Perceval Building in Judgewood (14,11) and i can revive anyone who needs it in advance - Jensentown seems pretty clear of the 4
OK - got 5 syringes - if you can get somewhere near the Perceval Building, let me know and i can come and stab you
Watch, I'm at the cemetary 1 south of Vladimirs in Jensentown (18, 3) I could really do with a revive before I get set to killin'
Bolt-01
OK - havent got enough AP to do much til tomorrow morning, so if you have any AP to get nearer, please do, and let me know here!
just got on, do you still want us to make our way to you Watch?
If you could - it'll cost me 10 AP to jab you, so the less travel, the more jabbing!
I can't remember where I ran out of steam but If it's not the factory 1 at 12,10 it's pretty close...
OK, Lionel - your done
Watch, I'm outside.
Bolt-01
OK - give me a while to regain a few more AP - building needed a bit of shoring up!
When everyone's up and about, make for Judgewood; it seems reasonably okay, but I haven't checked Peet yet.
Many thanks Karl Heinrich. Very big of you, all things considered.
Watcher-TKGMalcolm is inside the Perceval Building awaiting a kindly jab-the doors were wide open & 8 zeds outside.
M.
Mrh?
Bolts back in the land of the living - I'l get to you later Malcolm, or first thing tomorrow if my AP dont accumulate before sleep hits!
I still ahve a couple of needles left if anyone else is requiring?
Bah - killed!
MAybe Judgewood isnt that safe after all...
If I can get myself revived, I'll head back and help out - Sorry Bolt!
Malcolm even!
Thanks Watch.
Malcolm's dead anyway now-I'll hold back on standing up until a relatively safe revive location appears.
M.
Malcolm - I have another chap with a syringe who can help you.. head south to the Peet building when you can, and let me know when youre near...
That's great-will do
Ta!
I really should have mentioned TKGMalcolm's now at the Peet Building-just the vital info I missed out there!
M
OK, Malcolm, I'm here - but I think you might be dead! Could see you there anyway or have you been revived?
If not, reveal yourself and I''ll get you
Penguin is at the cemetery next to Brentnall PD where the pastime seems for zombies to munch zombies.
On a side note, I was at Newbury races at the weekend where I put money on a horse called Preacher Boy solely based on the name. Used it in a £2.50 accumalator for it to come in & win me a whopping £63.72!
Watcher-Malcolm's just standing outside Peet.
Maybe I've discovered invisibility skill!
M.
Nope - I'm just an idiot! Forgot my other guy doesnt have you as a contact!
Never mind - hopefully, youre revived - is that everyone up on their feet now?
Ah - Penguin... I might be able to get to you later if i have a lucky search
Penguin - if you could do what Malcolm did and head down to the Peet building, chances of revive tonight will increase!
My zombie chum has just bit a chap by the name of JohnnyXAlpha. Any relation?
Watch, I'll make my way to Peet as well.
Bolt-01
Aaah!That's better...the smell of my own foetid innards I found to be quite nauseating.
Many thanks Watcher.
Right you Buttons!Have a care!Have at thee varlets!For TKGMalcolm is once more to the fray!
(not to self-must stop playing Medieval:Total War)
M.
bolt and/or penguin - if you could stand in the wasteland just to the North of Peet, that would help - I'll get one of you tonight, and the other tomorrow if I'm not killed before then!
OK Bolt - you're done - though there appear to be a number of zombies hammering on the door... hurry up Penguin, else I mightn't be alive to revive!
Grud dammit!
Malcolm munched once more by zeds!
I'll hang around the wasteland north of Peet unless I'm told otherwise.
My trigger finger's itchin I tells ya-itchin!
M
Johnny Dial, late of this parish, is one north of Peet with Malcolm. 3 zeds outside Peet as I type, but any chance of a revive would be appreciated. Judgewood is looking bad, but not as bad as Dakerstown - now the only official 'ghost town' 'burb in Malton.
Popped out and revived Johnny Dial - sorry Malcolm, only one syringe!...
I reckon we might do better to move this to a safer suburb...
Quarlesbank seems a bit safer, and theres a revive point in operation...
Plus my other chaps just been revived there - if you could head his way, he has loads of needles...
Thanks Watcher! Quarlesbank sounds like a wise move - if everyone else is okay with that, we could reset the clock and start again from Monday; gives everyone a chance to get revived and healed up before taking care of bidness.
Theres also a Mall in Quarlesbank, which is handy
Quarlesbank it is!
Bolt-01
Agreed.
Just one question then-where's the revive in Quarlesbank then?
M.
You don't need it Mikey
Three cemeteries in Quarlesbank, and the one at [25, 2] is an active RP. Handily located between two NT buildings (2 clicks from each).
Great!Cheers Bad Andy.
Quarlesbank ahoy. Lionel is a bit dead again though...
OK - dead people gather at the cemetery in Quarlebank above St Benedicts Hospital (27,5?)
I've got 3 needles waiting
Lionel is in the cemetry you lovely man you.
Are we waiting till monday to continue the game?
If so, I am registering HERE that I am not attacking anyone till monday and would expect the same courtesy.
Bolt-01
Are we waiting till monday to continue the game?
S'right.
Cool. I was in a PD with Harry Ramsdaen and 29 AP. I was severely tempted...
Bolt-01
Bolt - Harry Ramsden lost three markers and is retired, isn't he?
By my reckoning, the remaining active Buttonmen are you, Penguin, Lionel Blair, Malcolm and Johnny Dial.
yeah - there's those 5 left - don't kill us!
It'll come as no surprise to learn TKGMalcolm is dead again.More annoyingly,I was in a ESB building and it was a PK-Krazyaxemurderer.My last killer was also a PK-Maledict Maleforus or something.Hmmm...
It may take me a while to get to the revive therefore.Please carry on regardless and make my job a bit easier!

Johnny Dial's got some bad news for Lionel Blair and Bolt-01 this morning. Ran into Lionel, took care of business and on my way out stumbled on Bolt. Couldn't get far and didn't want to take the risk of leaving him alive so had to serve him a lead salad. Sorry fellas!

Congratulations.
You bastard.
Malcolm is finally at the revive point.
That Dial fella is a demon!He must be cheatin! ;p
M.
Apologies for ignoring you, Watcher. Laptop issues. Sorted now, to Johnny Dial's detriment.
A Penguin's revenge is best served cold.
The Killer Penguin strkes again! Bah! Now it's just Penguin, Bolt, Malcolm and Johnny Dial - each with one marker left... This can't last much longer, eh? I think we should find a cosy pub for a Buttonman Knees-Up after the dust settles...
Penguin - are you dead again? Zombie, PKer or Buttonman? I hope you didn't fall out of a window - you'd never live it down in this business.
Penguin died of nasty infection trying to get to the mall, that & stupidity for not having any faks with me.
On a side note, everybody's favourite PKers Dept. Q member What's Happened is North West-ish of the mall.
And Zumm 'Personality' Zero is in the library east of the mall [29, 9]. Happy hunting, kids!
I'm in the same cemetary as Johnny dial, 1 east of Alcuin.
Revives anyone?
Bolt-01
Malcolm has been retired. Sorry.
Also spotted Dept. Q's, Shiv Jones. Isn't that all of DQ in Quarlesbank now?
*koff!*wheeze!*
I'm glad it was you, Penguin...and not that...Johnny Dial character...*koff!*Geddim for me would ya?
Take this finger...and...STICK IT UP YER ARSE!*wheeze!*
Bugger!I shouldn't have moved from my area!

So that leaves penguin, Johnny Dial and Bolt.
Blimey.
Does the person who uses the Doctor Maniacus character read this thread? If so...run! There's a hospital 1 north west and 1 west where you can get healed up from the injuries caused BY THE THREE ZOMBIES THAT ARE EATING YOU AS YOU SLEEP!

Really? Ah well. I've accessed the site too many times today to save him anyway. I think this marks the perfect opportunity for Doc Maniacus to be retired. If it is my character and not the stupid fake Doctor Maniacus, that is.
ehm guys, didn't you threaten us with a lynch mob yesterday (in the game)???? and now you're name calling again.... my partner in crime(??), 'personality zero', and myself are only in qaurelsbank passing through. don't mind us, ho hum.

I'm nearby with 2 syringes - just need more AP - if you're not done by tonight, I'll get to you (both?)
Cheers Watch.
Bolt-01
Bolt - you've been revived by - wait for it - Johnny Dial. Obviously he's tired of the killing, wracked by guilt, etc.
Cool. I'll try to get active over the weekend, but as I'm selling comics in brum I might be better off waiting till Monday.
Bolt-01
i have died twice and haven't done a thing i have only met a couple of people most attacked me and one saved me. in other words i'm shit at it.
Penguin was quietly enjoying an afternoon matinee of Doug McClure films at Chitty Cinema when some rowdy zombies burst in & dragged him outside.
He won't be up & about 'til after the weekend so Mr Dial don't spend all weekend hunting him.
Ah shit, I'm sorry Karl. Thought we were going to let these characters fade away after they were retired...
Bolt-01
Speechless - I'm only here for revives! The games still on isnt it?
Logged on to UD - still speechless...After all those revives as well! I'm tempted to give away your location you murdering rat! Get him Dial/Penguin!
I feel really rotten about this, a new emotion for a murderous button man. going to leg it anyway....
Bolt-01
Run! Run, you dog, while you still can!
Johnny Dial turned over a new leaf and revived a still activeBolt - only for him to then go and kill a retired buttonman on revive duty? For shame! What, were there no puppies that needed drowning? Boooo, hisss, etc. As soon as I get revived, I'll be on the case, Watch.
Johnny Dial took Bolt01's last marker this morning - justice of a sorts for that bad business with Karl Heinrich. I have a feeling Penguin may pounce soon, but it's been a good run up to now; well played all!
Bolt01 warning
Bolt01 kill
Ah well, to be fair that was probably all he deserved.
Well timed too, as I'm about to go on my hols for a fortnight tomorrow. I look forward to seeing who the final winner is of this, and thank everyone for a great game.
TKGBolt-01 is dead.
The penguin has pounced. Only just read this, thought Bolt was still left! It has been great fun, can't believe it's over & Penguin is still standing. What's next?
Well done, Penguin - and well played all! This has been good fun, and if we decide to have round two at some point, I'd be up for it.
As for what next, I'd suggest a Buttonman convention in a pub somewhere, and then a spell of retirement. In the meantime, Johnny Dial will be listing his collection of fingers on eBay any day now.

Hows about we have a break and then we can either work out team rules or a hunt - where the losers have to track down the penguin, Suggestions for rules?
And congratulations.

i'ld be up for a go if you chaps do this again
Hunt the penguin? That's a bit DasterdlyXMuttley!
Looking at the 'scores on the board' Johnny Dial should have won this, I just got lucky in the choice of suburb.
If any one does want to hunt him though, he's still in Quarlesbank hiding in the building he's been in for the past two weeks (except when he's been dead)
Well done Penguin! Our notoriety is spreading - got asked about the killing Game by another survivor, so I've pointed them in this direction - I'm up for another game, either with our "veterans", or starting afresh with newbies, or whatever combination sounds interesting
