On the Steam store page for DayZ, one of the sections read “About This Game”... yep, it explains what DayZ is about. But, as that section on the store page explains more about the core idea and functions of DayZ, all players take it upon themselves find out what the DayZ experience is to them.
In the process of doing so, you as players come across loads of bugs that we are fortunate enough to have filed on our Feedback Tracker, and in order to show our appreciation of your efforts in helping the team develop DayZ, we would like to feature as part of our status reports, players who have made the biggest contribution in filing those bugs.
Now don’t worry, while we do appreciate as many bugs as we can get from you guys, the monthly bug filer will not be measured purely on the amount of bugs reported, but also on the quality of the bugs, the amount of duplicates filed and such. The bug hunters will be featured on a monthly basis, so roughly in every fourth status report. At the end of development, the biggest contributors (how many) will be featured as part of our Special Thanks on the credits for DayZ.
Let’s take a moment to also mention all of you players who document your journeys through Chernarus. You, as content creators, show us what is available and possible with DayZ in terms of interaction and entertainment. You offer a glimpse of your experiences, your joy as well as frustrations, to us, the viewers that come across your media creations. Now, seeing as some of these creations being top notch, we thought it would be a great idea to also feature a special content creator as part of our weekly status reports.
To kick off this weekly feature, we would like to offer you a look at the work done by: TheRunningManZ!
I had the good fortune of being entertained for the better part of a weekend afternoon by his backlog of great videos on Youtube. The reason for featuring TheRunningManZ is not necessarily because he’s got the largest following of viewers, but more because of the excellent information and entertainment value in his content. Take for example the video “The Dilemma!” in which TRMZ gives an explanation at the beginning of the video regarding the background of the events unfolding as well as the thought process behind his actions.

Also, for some nice gameplay and a bit of elation, do have a look at the video “V3S Mayhem! The Truck Takedown And The Takedown Truck...” – the joy (and the jig) at around 2:15 is pure win!!! TheRunningManZ, the guys at the office salute you!
