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.

If anyone knows how, can they have a look in the game files and try to find the name for the Shangri La music? we found it before for ascension in the file "mus_gameover_abracadavre", so it could be the same for this one!

While watching Strwrsbob's stream, him, LiamFTWinter, and two of their friends are working out the easter egg, and I'm helping them along. After watching them constantly go into night mode and seeing how the EE is only accessible during the eclipse, what if the eclipse is an alternative reality? We know that Brock and his assistant somehow activated the eclipse (the buttons), and got stuck in the room during the eclipse. We also know that we can only help them escape during the eclipse, so what if this is an alternative reality (I originally said aether but I doubt that)?

These gongs seem to trigger some sort of noticible ambient effect when some of them are hit, but only certain ones will do it. Facing the pack a punch; 2 on the left, the closest one to the waterfall and the other side of the mud trap. the one at spawn. and one on the right, between the minecart and tunnel. I'm finagling around with these gongs, seeing if there is a correct order to press but it seems that these four can be activated just plainly, with no order needed. perhaps there is an order to the correct ones.

Okay so ive been reading alot of threads about how the easter eggs for Ascension and Shangri la, and some COTD are not worth it, well you guys its not about the reward, your doing the easter eggs to build up on the story, the final map for black ops will most definentley have a HUGE reveal on most things, why you got the golden Rod, why you got the focusing stone, Why you Freed Gersch (which i highly suspect was just for fun) So dont focus so much on what you get focus more on wht you did!

My theory on the moving statue is that when you tun the power in, and look at the statue, you stand on a panel that has and 8sided star, and a death skull, these panels are throughout the map, so my theory is that you have to step on these panels in the right order, and it will turn the statues, maybe something to do with focusing stone **when you step on a panel, that isn't right it stops all moving panels and you have to wait till next Round**

Well i'm guessing this has been noticed already but i've been to a lot of different places and none of them have mentioned that Shangri-La is an Element 115 mine. i know that the easter egg is over and all but i still feel that i missed something here.

Hey, post here what you think would be a good song for the EE. I know they'll have an all new song made up and performed (most likely the usual crew, Elena Siegman, Kevin Sherwood and friends). But post here existing songs that would be good. From me: 4ioIylqRPXU I know it's been in the game a lot already, but: Je8MXiwmNIk and last but not least, because of the firey type stuff in SL: owbt1_slgN4 Get on Postin'!

I did not understand what the importance of Shangri-La was then after lokking around i found something interesting the mines around the temple are filled with 115 if you cant find it just look around theres blocks of it everywhere So i started to think about what this meant and how it links to the story i came up with 2 possibilities 1) The nazis found it and used it as a supply of 115 which explains the mine an how richtofen knows so much about it OR 2) The 115 is what allows the temple to be used as a teleporter which explains how the crew arrived at the temple and how they time travel when you activate the eclipse as we know that 115 powers the teleporte…

Sorry if this has been posted already but I found a quick little piece of information that might help as to why Shnagri-La is indeed paradise... "Shangri-La is a fictional place described in the 1933 novel Lost Horizon by British author James Hilton. In the book, "Shangri-La" is a mystical, harmonious valley, gently guided from a lamasery, enclosed in the western end of the Kunlun Mountains. Shangri-La has become synonymous with any earthly paradise but particularly a mythical Himalayan utopia — a permanently happy land, isolated from the outside world. In the novel Lost Horizon, the people who live at Shangri-La are almost immortal, living years beyond the normal li…

If you are interested in a strategy involving ak74u and mustang and sally, this video can help you. Not much commentary here but you won't need it. I got 100 grand by the end of 25 rounds doing circles (squares) in power room. I was playing with randoms and their target was 30 rounds. http://www.justin.tv/mwa2012/b/290588983 Please comment and follow my channel if you like this. Regards way2g00

My theory for this map is, ritchtofen is traveling here, to shangri-la, because he would be immortal. On Wikipedia it says shangri-la is some kind of like south American Mayan paradise outside of earth, which the inhabitants are immortal. So ritchtofen decides to ravel here because he knows that the earth is going to be over run by zombies. My guess is that 115 got their first, and experimented on the inhabitants or something like that, thus creating the super zombie flamer thing. The monkey are there because well, it's south American. That's my theory thanks for reading!! Post comment, I'll always take constructive criticism to make my posts better!! 8-)
