*sigh* Well getting into a turf war would be stupid, but this is totally the sort of situation that sparks turf wars. If this were a bigger problem I'd say we should move to another suburb, but as it is I guess it's just something we have to grit our teeth and bear.

I just logged in to this message:

#  Doctor Heller said "RedRum member Suburban Ed is in Gynn Bank, 3 S, 1 SE." (1 hour and 30 minutes ago)

Incidentally, I have Doctor Heller marked green. I don't remember why, but I mark helpful people (ie. people who revive me or rebuild barricades) green to know who to heal if I have the chance.

Would it be a bad idea to just explain why combat reviving isn't a great tactic? They may genuinely not have realised.

I have a colour-coded system for people too; green is Ponies; Yellow is helpful members of ENVY or M.E.R.C.Y. so that I can keep an eye on them; blue is general helpful people; Purple is suspicious people and Orange is those due sweet, sweet vengeance at the end of my axe.

I am pretty sure the recurring zombie Pfaltz has me marked as I am the first person he attacks whenever we are in a building together (this may be Eric, now that I come to think about it).

The Mitchem Mall seems to be back and running, though for how long I don't know. I've hid out for the night in one of the towers that's EHB though I have like 600xp that I can't use because I've unlocked all the Survivor skills. Perhaps getting my certificate in zombie skills might do me good in the long run, so maybe getting killed might be a blessing...

I know that feeling. I finally used like 600 XP when I was just killed in the mall. As you say it's pretty solid right now; 11 massed outside, but that ain't no thang. When I went to Bhore Monument today there was surprisingly no-one to revive.

Even Mitchem is pretty secure right now, there hasn't been anyone to revive at Bhore Monument for the past few days. If you pay attention to the wiki map, apparently our quadrant of Malton is the safest part right now.

So I wandered into Dentonside to kill some zeds. Turned out there were more than I thought and they killed me even after I barricaded a safehouse overnight. Killed the zed outside Norton Square for fun on the lurch back, am now at Somerville if someone can revive me?

Went to the mall down in Gulsonside (southwest of Vinetown) to see how things are going down there.

From the looks of things, not too good.

St. Matthews is low on fuel for the generator, I could only carry one fuel can and used it on Siricius. I'm in a repair shop looking for more, but I'm out of AP, so it will be a while before I can find one and get back.

There are indeed some zombies in the mall in Gulsonside. I'm gonna wait for more ap and currently am holed up in Vawer Walk PD, which is lit and EHB, as are a bunch of buildings in Osmondville--so perfect.

Does Gulsonside have NT buildings? I'll check the map of course before heading over, just curious. I want to minimize trekking long distances to ferry in supplies.

An impressive three, the Perryn Building being the closest to the mall and easiest to free run into from there. It was ruined when I checked before. I'm just on the south border of Vinetown at the moment trying to scare up a genny, I'll head along once I've found one and got my AP back.

Four zeds inside Perryn and 2 ap to repair it. The Axtence building in Osmondville is only four moves away from the mall though. A little farther away but already lit and EHB

I'm coming in tomorrow, I have a few FAKs, but mostly ammo for clearing stuff out. I'm sitting in Vinetown at 7 AP currently. I can work on the Perryn building if you guys want and it is still occupied. I'll probably need someone to barricade it if it has zombies and needs repairing.

I honestly think putting a genny and fixing Perryn would be a waste of ap for right now since there is one that's lit and not far. Working on the mall itself would probably be the most productive for at first, though we could have a goal of getting the rest of the area secure after the mall.

I'm in Vawer Walk PD right now, waiting for the AP to fill up for tomorrow. Full on syringes and ammo, a bit low on FAKs. Should I just head straight for the mall tomorrow, or does something need fixing? Do we know of any revive points on the way?

Yeah I concur, if there are other NTs nearby then securing the mall is more important.

Well I don't have any specific suggestions, but my usual plan is to head straight to whichever revive point the wiki says is closest to the mall. I barely ever go into malls actually, I mostly hang around the periphery to keep mall defenders flowing in.


UPDATE: hm, even though the mall is totally dead, the revive points surrounding it are empty. That's disappointing, that may mean all the mall occupants have evacuated rather than sticking around to fight. Since I didn't have much reviving to do, I spent most of my AP scouting around. There are barely any zombies outside, just one group of 7 attacking a fire station.

Even this ruined mall is pretty low-key, I'm starting to think we should go back to Ridleybank for another try. It's orange on the map!

Also with regards the NT brittany identified, Axtence is lit and holding but everyone in there is a little chewed up so I'm guessing this is a battleground.

So my Zombie alt got combat-revived, which turns out to be (sort-of) awesome--I go into a building, putz around until I die, then come back as a zombie and hit a dude or a genny. So awesome but I end up not having enough XP for human skills.

Yeah, that fire station is where I ended up holing up, after repairing a square of the mall (not like it is going to survive, but I had to at least try). It's at VHB right now, Jefferson Halley and I are in it.

The NE section is now at VH, and the final ruined section only had 3 zombies in it so a reasonably coordinated hit by two or three well-armed people should take it.

I jabbed ya. I also revived a zombie standing outside the mall that looked like he might play as a survivor; it's often hard to tell with maxed out characters if I should revive them or not (otherwise you go by which side they have more skills for.)

8 zombies total in the mall, 3 SW, 2 NW, 2 NE. SE is repaired, but unbarricaded, didn't see the point with zombies inside. It takes one AP to repair an unoccupied square, and usually around 5 to completely ruin it. Even if it isn't going to stay up, you are making them waste AP on ruining it again. The fire station is at EHB+1, it was at lightly when I logged in.

Barricading is the most important thing to do, more important than attacking the zombies. The common expression is "cade kill dump heal":
http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Survivor#Survivor_Defence

The point is so that zombies can't get back in right after you kill them. After all, a killed zombie can just stand right back up with little penalty and walk right back into the building.

I figured there wasn't too much point in barricading when there were no zombies outside, and a bunch inside. At least one of the other corners was caded, and I didn't think about the possibility of more people going into the mall rather than going after the fire station.

Speaking of, the fire station got ruined and I got killed while I was offline, I'm at the cemetery by the NW square of the mall.
