December 28^th

Still all fucked up, despite the efforts of the Finnerty zerg clan and the DA.--Bobby Big Balls 08:25, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

December 23^rd

With the combined help of the DA, Finnerty clan, and solo survivors ending with the recovery of the DITPS HQ: Anne General Hospital. Much of Northern Dulston is back in survivor hands. Recommending a downgrade from extremely dangerous to very dangerous.--Sparticulous 21:35, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Dulston is still a ruined shithole.--Bobby Big Balls 07:12, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Most buildings are in good condition, although the Treweeke Mall area is still well contested. The mall itself has a large number of zombies inside, when compared with the rest of the area.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 15:26, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

25.96 MHz: "... reporting from Dulston, I've got thirty or so active ... mostly just small groups ... a few buildings with lights on ... some minor structural damage ... the Whitlock Building is operational ... Treweeke Mall is in bad shape ..." --Magothys 17:04, 23 November 2010 (UTC)

November 17^th

Both The Mall and the "Fortress of Science" are back online, with lights scattered between them. Zombie opposition is slowly weakening, particularly in the North where they've had a stranglehold for the past couple of years.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 14:37, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

November 12^th

Things are looking up for the survivors of Dulston. Recent raids by Dead vs Blue, amongst other groups, have recovered many of the buildings on the Western side of the suburb. There are generally very few zombies other than in the Mall and the "Fortress of Science", and the suburb is only moderately dangerous.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk !

Dulston: Gutted like a fish. It's bad, Juno. It's a dead place, man, like all the others, you know. Listen. You can hear it over the engine. It's a great, big, 14 mile *tombstone*! With an epitaph on it that nobody gonna bother to read. Yeah. Prime real estate at close-out prices! If you decide to come up and visit...you're likely to have a lousy afternoon.--Sargent Havok 11:50, 13 October 2010 (BST)

September

September 26^nd

The party is over. Mall security has been overrun and the isles are starting to run full of zombies shopping for brains. I'm counting a good 24 hungry z's inside and only a handful of survivors left. The rest of the hood seems to be in fairly good shape. --Funkster 17:20, 26 September 2010 (BST)

September 22^nd

Dulston is in good shape. After a steady increase in the situation in the north-east over the past month or so, the suburb is finally secured. The mall is running and powered, as is The "Fortress of Science". Zombies are few and far between. Renowned Necrotech Scientist Caleb Usher was unavailable for comment.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk !

With the exception of Trood, much arm and blaise hospital being lightly defended, All of Dulston is still completely in zombie hands with 1 or 2 zombies posted in every ruined building with the exception of the cinema near trood with 5 zombies that are always posted in there. An extremely dangerous suburb for the weak of heart even with the Dulston alliance's best effort to reclaim the area. --Sparticulous 13:11, 27 August 2010 (BST)

April 26^th

NT scans from Rhodenbank show 32 zombies in western Dulston. They are spread across the area in small groups, with larger groups of 14 at the mall and 8 at St. Anacletus's Hospital. Scouting runs indicate most buildings are barricaded, but there is still a noticable ruin and zombie presence. ~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 04:17, 26 April 2010 (BST)

April 19^th

A NT scan from The Carlyle Building in Rhodenbank shows 51 zombies in Western Dulston.

Few buildings are lit, with around a third to a half of the area in ruins. ~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 04:28, 19 April 2010 (BST)

April 18^th

Dulston has taken a turn towards Zombie control, despite the efforts of many local Survivors. A fairly large horde of Undeadites have taken over the NE of Dulston.

Reclaimed mall has been broken into and all within have been slaughtered. Zombies have infiltrated all corners. Mikhos 03:25, 9 April 2010 (BST)

A NT scan from The Starr Building in bordering Rhodenbank shows 49 zombies within scanning range, of which only 18 are in Dulston. Those in scanning range were widely spread out, with the only noticable concentration being a group of four zombies outside the Southeastern mall. As of this post the mall is currently safe and barricaded.--~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 06:33, 9 April 2010 (BST)

March

March 29^th

The Mall has been reclaimed by an assortment of local groups. The strong push from the Dulston Alliance in the South-West, and the push from PANTHER, Damn Yankees and Earletown Rangers in the North-East has reclaimed a large number of buildings.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:38, 29 March 2010 (BST)

Situation continues to improve across Dulston. Unfortunately we have Zerg issues in the NE in the form of at least 8 Zergs under various permutations of the name Potatocake, all created within hours of each other. Never the less, Suburb downgraded to Moderately Dangerous.--The Duke of Earl 05:58, 30 March 2010 (BST)

March 28^th

The Suburb is looking better. PANTHER Operatives, among other groups like Damn Yankees and Earletown Rangers are working to restore order. Even spotted a few DA members trickling in, so you know it must be getting safer. Downgraded to Dangerous.--The Duke of Earl 10:40, 28 March 2010 (BST)

Some minor skirmishes at border of Dulston and Rhodenbank between survivors and zombies, zombies are still keeping at least one zombie within each ruined building in Dulston. A scout of Dulston's Northern area show significant Player Killers presence though. --Northboundsnow 04:08, 15 March 2010 (UTC)

Twelve buildings are presently listed as safe, all others are listed as ruined or in zombie hands. Much of the Treweeke Mall area is in ruins, despite revives being fairly easy to get.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 21:26, 14 March 2010 (UTC)

March 4^th

Total wasteland, except for the SE. Very Dangerous.--The Duke of Earl 17:36, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

Quick recon shows that roughly a third of the buildings in Dulston are caded. Dangerous, but not very dangerous.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 17:52, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

A real recon shows half the buildings reported as 'safe' are actually ruined. Very Dangerous. Remember, PANTHER news is news you can trust! DA news is propaganda that will probably get you killed...--The Duke of Earl 22:12, 4 March 2010 (UTC)

A DITPS recon shows that the entire suburb is devoid of statues. Incredibly uncivilized. Beware.--Deathwire 00:37 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Admittedly, DITPS is a reliable source of Statue News.--The Duke of Earl 01:01, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

The suburb is extremely safe for zombies. --Shank Case 01:02, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

All of you are creating an unnessary amount of conflict on the suburb news page. Since none of you seem willing to compromise on this matter, consider taking it to Arbitration rather than spam up our news source. Having examined the suburb, I would also like to point out that several buildings in SE Dulston are barricaded at this hour, as well as four non-resource buildings in NE Dulston. Outside of that, most of the suburb's police departments, fire stations, Necrotech buildings, and Treweeke Mall are presently ruined. A report with some evidence of current zombie numbers has been issued from the Waish Building in nearby Pescodside. In the future, all parties concerned would do well to remember that suburb news is supposed to be neutral, and group propoganda and slander do not have a place on this page. Cheers. - Ottari ^{DA PDA NW} Read the Dispatch! 02:15, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

February 25^th

While the zombies maintain their control over most of the subrub, survivors are beginning to make forays into Dulston. Most buildings along the border are secure, but the infrastructure rapidly deteriorates as one travels east.--~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 05:53, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Groups of fearless survivors from Dulston Alliance, Damn Yankees, RCDC, Pagans, and other unaffiliated locals braved into the far side of the suburb. They got past the mass of zombies attacking Rhodenbank's Necrotech column, and successfully repaired many building: St Anacletus's Hospital, Clewett Alley Police Department, the nearby warehouse, creating a Free Running lane that almost reached the powered Beale NT. However, zombies returned in force within one day, and crush this daring attempt. The revival of Dulston is once again back to the beginning. -- Kittithaj 11:06, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

February 22^nd

Suburb buildings almost totally ruined. High presence of zombies. Freakazoit 15:35, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

February 20^th

NT scans from Rhodenbank show 58 zombies in Western Dulston. They are spread in medium-sized groups across the suburb, which is mostly ruined. Large groups include 14 at Treweeke Mall and 10 at the Duport Avenue Revive point.--~ Red Hawk One ^{Talk | space for lease} 05:58, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

Dulston has been gutted. Very Dangerous.--The Duke of Earl 19:06, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

January

January 31^st

Survivors are, for the first time in many months, reclaiming significant portions of NE Malton. While Treweeke Mall remains ransacked at this hour after falling into undead hands two nights ago, it is surrounded by lighted and barricades buildings. Treweeke and the Trood Necrotech facility are presently the only tactical resource buildings ransacked at this time. Two new reports from Necrowatch lab technicians at the Whitlock and Beale Necrotech labs also reveal that the danger level in Dulston can safely be downgraded to yellow for the time being.

January 26^th

As of last night, Treweeke Mall is lit and barricaded, full of members of local groups, and Dulston Alliance operatives. After months of heavy zombie occupation, a survivor presence has entered the south. However, after the Mall was retaken, Pegrum Place Police Department was taken over by zeds. Dulston is still a major conflict zone.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 15:31, 26 January 2010 (UTC)

I would characterize it as horribly underpopulated. Roughly half of the buildings in Dulston are currently barricaded, but there aren't enough survivors to keep any given building from falling to a group of 2 or 3 coördinated zombies. There are plenty of barricaded buildings that are completely empty of survivors. Looking around Dulston, you don't see many zombies on the streets, but practically every ruined building has 2 or 3 zombies hiding in it. They are old-time Dulston zombies and PKers -- these guys never left, and they're not dumb. Unless and until we get a good population of several hundred survivors in Dulston, there will not be much progress. Consider this a call to arms for the Dulston Diaspora: Return to your beloved suburb! We need your help! --BadgerW 18:29, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

January 18^th

The suburb is still trashed, but a very small survivor population is starting to trickle into the western reaches, basing their operations out of Rhodenbank. A few non-resource buildings have barricades, and it is now actually possible to get a revive in western Dulston for the first time in months. There appear to be too few zombies to keep out the growing survivor presence. --Jenkem 16:41, 18 Janurary 2010 (PST)

That said, there's still plenty of zombies. --Pyrranha 21:17, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
