Survivour Groups
I am sending out a call to all survivour groups who participatedin the defence of Monroeville Mall during this time. It will help to bring more presice details to the page, and you could put a survivours POV in. I'm tracking down someone I think was in said attack.
- Love the idea of a historical on this as it was one of the defining moments of Mv's short life for me. I'll add a few of my observations as an independent survivor soon, no survivor group POV though, sorry.

- One of my Monroeville characters - Patricia Tanaka [1] - was alive and in Mv Mall during the siege/battle/fall/etc. None of my Mv chars were group affiliated so someone else would have a better recollection from that POV.My character was there to try and get some clips for the Diary competition. She was in Mv Mall for definite on the 8th March when everything looked peachy for the survivors.Then on 19th March 19th the radio was full of talk about the siege so she headed back over there. She arrived just after the most Easterly block fell and stayed for a while in the centre block trying to fill stuff.From my recollection the survivor retaliation seemed somewhat muted, compared to a Malton siege that is. Whether a lot of the survivors there had gotten bored with Mv and weren't signing-in often enough to notice most of Monroeville's zombie population next door, the relatively few large survivor groups organised (compared to the Mv Many, Cornfed Undead) or maybe because many others were like me and just there for clips is hard to know. Add all that to people who just ran automatically to preserve their one life, the recent zombie anti-barricade lurch update and that made the siege pretty one-sided.My survivor camped out the night to the north and returned the next morning (20th) and ran through the whole mall west to east to find a ruined mall and lots of full zombies.--Co fragment 09:07, 20 August 2008 (BST)
