Shangri-La
A legendary shrine lost in an exotic jungle. Where the undead lurk within a treacherous labyrinth of underground caverns, deadly traps and dark secrets.
CoDz Code of Conduct
Listed below is the Code of Conduct.
Please don't just read numbered points and say "I'd never advertise!" and skip over it, because there are things you may not realize are categorized as advertising, or anything else, that are and you might have already broken them. If you have any questions regarding this, please ask, and have a good time and be sure to follow the rules!
1. ADVERTISING [ADV]:
Rule: Advertising to other users inside the CoDz Forum, whether it be via a post, personal message, or profile/signature links, to buy or view any products, websites, or other service is strictly prohibited. Non-intrusive links in signatures to personal YouTube accounts may be allowed, but that is case-to-case and each will be reviewed individually.
Consequence: The infringing user’s account will be banned, as well as the IP address. Any post with the intentions of advertising will be immediately and permanently deleted.
Example: If you are a spam bot, a hired advertiser, or a desperate website/business owner, this may apply to you. Signing up and making your only post a promotion for your zombie gameplay YouTube channel is breaking the rule. However simply sending links to a fellow forum goer who wants to know where to buy a capture card is not breaking this rule, PMing your buddy a link to a funny YouTube video isn't, etc.
2. DOUBLE ACCOUNTS [DBLE]:
Rule: Creating another account when a a user already has one account on CoDz is not allowed. There is little to no need for a separate account. If you've forgotten your password and need access back to your main account, use the Forgot Password link. Should there be a logical reason outside of forgetting credentials for the double account, contact a staff member immediately with details of the situation..
Consequence: The secondary account created by the original user will be permanently banned given with evidence of double accounts. In addition, the original account held by the user will be temporarily banned as well. Using the secondary account to avoid a suspension/ban on the main account will result in both accounts being permanently banned.
Example: A user creates a double account because they've been banned. If that account matches up the original user and no case has been made to the staff about the reason for the double account, both accounts will be banned after contacting the user.
3. SPAMMING [SPAM]: Spamming is defined as many things, and all of them aren’t allowed. As a CoDz user, you should hold yourself to a high standard and use common sense when posting.
Duplicate Posts -
Rule: Creating a thread that discusses a topic that has already been brought up in another thread is generally frowned upon, as each user is responsible for finding the pre-existing thread and making their remarks there. Cross-posting violations (making more than one post of the same question/answer across multiple forums) is prohibited.
Consequence: The infringing duplicate thread will be either merged (with the original thread), locked, or deleted, depending on the situation. When dealing with two duplicate threads, the staff will sometimes exercise their own personal judgement with regard to the thread’s posts, to avoid conversations being broken up and posts losing their cohesion, as all the comments in both threads are merged and arranged by the date they were posted.
Cross-posting violations will be dealt with by deleting all cross-posted threads. Users are responsible for figuring out the appropriate section in which to post their topic. If you have any trouble you may ask any staff member for advice!
We always welcome PMs from the users!
Example: If two threads are created that both discuss the exact same element of a newly released Zombie Map trailer, they become ‘duplicate posts’, as they consist of identical, or very similar, material. However, if someone makes a thread about, for example, who they think the Pentagon Thief is, and then someone else makes a thread in which they argue that it is actually someone completely different, they would not be breaking the rule.
Moreover, if someone made a thread that came to the same conclusion as the first user’s thread did, it still wouldn’t necessarily break the rule, as long as they brought new evidence to the table (or reevaluated old evidence) while doing so. If they reach the same conclusion, then they will be merged, in which case the older thread will remain, and the newer thread will become a reply to the older post.
Post Pumping -
Rule: Any user that makes a post just to increase their own post count is considered disruptive to the community, and is interfering with the other members’ usage of the CoDz forum.
Consequence: Violations will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis - some users will be warned verbally by PM, others may receive an official warning, and posts/threads may also be deleted (which will make your post count drop again!). Repeat offenders will suffer a Permanent Ban of their account on the forum.
Example: If a user makes a post saying “I agree,” or “We know,” or something similar and they do not further the conversation or productivity of the thread, that would be grounds for deletion of the post. The specific details of post pumping are left for staff to decide case-by-case, as there are a broad range of possibilities, which are quite dependent on the circumstances.
4. FLAMING [FLAME]:
Rule: Posts, signatures, avatars, or PMs that are intended to harass, threaten, embarrass or cause the distress or discomfort to another member of the CoDz Forum Community or any other individual or entity is unacceptable. (For this reason, the emoticon known as “facepalm” has been removed from the forum.)
Consequence: In some cases, warnings may be issued, but flaming is likely to result in Permanent Banning. It is therefore advisable to always be respectful to your fellow members; this does not mean you cannot disagree with someone, but you do not need to tear a person down in order to prove your point, so be careful with sarcasm! The response “I was only joking” will not get you much sympathy.
Example: If a user says to another on the forum that they are stupid, dumb, illogical, incompetent, etc., that is an example of a user tearing another down, and is considered to be ‘flaming’. Even sarcastically saying “Wow, you’re a bright one, aren’t you..” or “Did you figure that out on your own?” would qualify as a form of harassment.
5. OFFENSIVE CONTENT [OFF]:
Rule: Using offensive language in any context is not allowed here at the CoDz Forum. We believe that our intelligent members can make their points and offer their contributions WITHOUT the necessity of vulgarities. Included in this would be racism, sexism, or any other form of discrimination that may end up causing the distress or discomfort of a user or any group in general. Along with offensive language, displaying or linking to offensive content is not allowed at CoDz. Please be sensitive towards others and how they may react to sensitive material.
Consequence: Posts, signatures, or profiles containing offensive language, content, or links will be edited and/or deleted by the Forum Moderators and Warnings will be issued as appropriate. Repeat violations of this policy may result in more severe actions, up to and including Permanent Banning.
Example: You can come up with your own examples for sensitive language, I trust we all have at least a few in our heads, but simply starring out a letter or putting a strike through the word does not excuse its usage, such as f*ck, sh*t, etc. An example of offensive content could be an avatar of the Twin Towers falling with the caption “Burn baby burn!” This is very offensive to many people, and although it may not be so to you, please respect the feelings of other users.
Examples of offensive links include Pornographic, Racial, Defamation, or any other derogatory content. If it does not pass our CoC do not link to it on our site.
6. SIGNATURES [SIG]:
Rule: A user’s signature may only be 5 lines high, 15 pixels high per line and 65 pixels wide per line. A signature must follow all of the above guidelines concerning offensive language and material, and also concerning advertising.
Consequence: If a user creates a signature that violates the above rules, they will first be contacted and asked to change their signature. If they do not comply, someone will change it for them. Particularly horrid offenses will be dealt with by staff in an appropriate manner.
Example: A “good” signature could contain a few links to some threads (as long as they follow previous rules), zombie round numbers, a small image, or something personal, such as a saying or quote. A “bad” signature would contain any annoying “flashy” .GIFs, or any content that would not comply with previous CoC rules.

On the loading screen which you've all probably examined, there is no tear in the top right, only the top left displaying previous screens of zombie maps. Is this the last one? I'd assume so considering I heard one of the characters mention paradise in the game.

I haven't even played the map yet, but from vosty's stream, the loading screen didnt show another hint of the next map (no tear in page on the right) only the one from CoTD. Also, when you die, you hear the same music as you do at the end of CoTD. The end song has always signified the new song on the next map. There is no new song. Does this mean no more zombies for Black Ops? I sure hope not

Hey guys. I checked out this number system, it's pretty obvious to decode: Imho this could give a hint when this temple stuff was build, or it could give a hint to the location of the map. But I cannot identify this number system exactly. Basically, it's similar to the Roman numbers. Like the basic signs for 1, 5, 10; and then you add everything thats there. Like Roman 17 is X V II, and here it's that C, the |, and the two dots. The numbers 1 to 9 are equal to the Maya number system: Maya would actually fit the architecture. Just a quick look an Wiki says they lived in central America, 3000 before to 900 after Christ. Known is also their …

Hey, I know I haven't got a lot of post counts so don't flame me (I mostly just read posts ), but I noticed one of the comments for the latest video of Shangri-La saying at 1:08 the Olympia fires three shots.. it didn't look like it was upgraded (I couldn't see the purple 'tint' when Dempsey was firing) so what do you guys think?

Sorry if someone else has posted this but... what about the start on shangri-la (sorry if spelled wrong), any theories? all that i know is that Kino and Ascension had just an image for the start. But Five and CoTD had video sequences, also on Kino you know that the crew was teleported there because of the lightning flashing on your screen. But maybe there is a very small cinematic like on ascension (when you land on the lunar lander) explaining how the crew got there (by the way i never played W@W so i don't know the start to them).......so back on topic, Any theories. :?: :?:

So, not too long ago, I made a post with some Shangri-La based theories (that accidently didn't post in this section >_>) that included our British Explorer, Brock, and what he and Gary were doing in Shangri-La in the first place. My first ideas were to search for Agatha and Ogotha, seeing as I couldn't hear exactly what he was saying when he was talking about his "Gateway" that he was searching for. These were the WikiFinds I found for those: Agatha turned up with Operation Agatha, a British Military Operation in 1946 taking place in Palestine. The link to Brock makes sense, but it didn't exactly raise my eyebrows. Ogotha turned up Ōgata, Akita,…

To activate the pack-a-punch you need to have 4 people stand on the 4 large squares around the map near the spinning monkey statues. When all 4 people stand on them at the same time, the statue stops spinning and stairs are available at the bottom to climb up to the PaP. It is on a timer and a flood of water will wash everyone back down.

I was watching the trailer, and saw the pack-a-punch machine in the middle of the tower. I can't make a screen shot of the video, but here a link to the part of a video with gameplay and the picture. I take no credit for this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biRQC5Gc ... ded#t=179s

Something I noticed on day one, but haven't gotten around to sharing until now deals with the timer for pack-a-punch. If you look closely at the timer you see a skull. It looks like a Cosmic Silverback skull to me. If you don't know the Cosmic Silverback is the boss zombie on Dead Ops Arcade. His main level where you fight him off is jungle themed and looks very similar to Shangri-La. Thoughts? I also put together a video so you can see the skull better. u9n2y-mxuGg

When your playing Crash Site, when the Heli pilot says: "Wolf 10, Welcome to Paradise", when your in those rock tunnels, and there's that water fall. And it got me thinking, because if it would be the setting for next map, the waterfall is the only place to hide anything. I mean honestly, your not gonna hide secret experiments on flat steep rock in a jungle. Nobody would look there anyways, it would be a perfect place. And in Media, hiding things behind waterfalls is VERY common. Example: The hidden city of gold in the The Road to El Dorado is in a valley that is behind a tunnel behind a waterfall. More examples here: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/p…

good theory! Also i have a theory. You know how some people found ascension clues on campaign like the ascension group. Well i was thinking when you play call of the dead online on the loading screen on the top corners their is a part from ascension on the left and another that looks like a jungle on the right. When you send the old characters to paradise or free them on call of the dead, i dont know how it is on ps3 but when you do that on xbox360 you get an achievement that says you have to send the crew to paradise, in the campaign one mission is called crash site and a guy tells you welcome to paradise. In that mission, its like a jungle so i was thinking what if the …

I don't have Black Ops so I have watched only videos, I know there is two man locked to some room, and other man is dead. In Pareidolia lyrics go like this: They're inside I'm outside They're all around Like some Man/Women Thoughts, Those two did get safe, I don't, Zombies everywhere! Maybe there was more guys, but only those two did their way to that room. What you thing?

"Pareidolia: is a psychological phenomenon involving a vague and random stimulus (often an image or sound) being perceived as significant. Common examples include seeing images of animals or faces in clouds, the man in the moon or the Moon rabbit, and hearing hidden messages on records played in reverse. The word comes from the Greek para- – "beside", "with", or "alongside"—meaning, in this context, something faulty or wrong (as in paraphasia, disordered speech) and eidōlon – "image"; the diminutive of eidos – "image", "form", "shape". Pareidolia is a type of apophenia." "Animals or faces in the sky" We have seen them in Ascension. There were lots of reports of Fa…

i was reading over the lyrics for pareidolia and i saw two line that stood out to me. one line which was being shouted read BURNED IN MY MIND which i thought was a reference to the Napalm Zombie. another line read which was not shouted read: ride white knight unite my plight tonight, well white knight is what i think a reference to the Screamer Zombie because the Screamer has a white character model. now i am not 100% sure about this so give me your thoughts on this.

The easter egg song pareidolia that is sung by elena siegman. Ok first off we need to know what pareidolia actually means, It means a phenomenon that is perceived as being significant but actually is not and hearing hidden meassages on a record in reverse. In the song pareidolia at the part where "the lonliness is only missed when i am alone" if played in reverse it sounds like "save me moses" what could this mean Also There has been a report that there looked like there was a face on mars but there actually wasnt, This is waht we call a pareidolia. This is another hint that mars has something to do with shangri la. Check out this video for more http://www.youtube.…

Hey, this thread is to show you how to get the perk bottle from monkeys on shangri la. well, its more about strategies on how to obtain them. so this is what i have found out so far: If there is a legit max ammo that was dropped from a zombie, and u let the monkey take it, the perk bottle will always show up after the max ammo. But the max ammo is the only power up i have found that does this. lets say it was a carpenter. the perk bottle wont show up after the carpenter if it was a carpenter; only works for max ammo. I know you guys are probally confused, but i wont you guys to post if you have found any other order like the max ammo one then i…

Some one in the forum pointed that perk bottle always appears when max ammo is dropped and the first one to randomize is perk bottle. Edit: These videos prove that perk bottle is always random each time. But it remains in the same order for that spin.
