Talk:Shoedsackovskaïa family: Difference between revisions

Line 1:

Thanks for this complete article, Spiral. I have two small questions though: where does it say that the Shoedsackovskaïa family is of royal descent, and how did you identify Nimrod and Zaroff's respective preys? Thanks for your answer ;) — [[User:Hunchman801|Hunchman801]] 19:43, 23 September 2009 (UTC)

:One official source refers to Razoff as "the last descendant of a royal family of maniac hunters", and another source says that Razoff is the last descendant of the Shoedsackovskaïa family, so it seems reasonable to assume that the Shoedsackovskaïa family are royal.

:As for how I deduced the respective preys of Nimrod and Zaroff: I'm not 100% certain. They're the only two other descendants of the family that we know of, and the Abominable Geranium and Space Mama are the only two preys of the family that we know of. So it seems likely that the two preys were the victims of the two members of the family. Space Mama being the prey of Zaroff seems to fit best with the timeline, and the fact that the Abominable Geranium is mentioned alongside her seems to indicate that she's Nimrod's prey (if it was the prey of a more distant ancestor, why would the R3 website skip a bunch of generations, and their prey?). So there's nothing conclusive, but when you put together the different sources it seems to be the simplest and most logical conclusion. You'll notice that I didn't state it in the article as if it was confirmed fact, I only said that it "seems" to be the case. --[[User:Spiraldoor|Spiraldoor]] 17:09, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
