A dented portable generator has been set up here. It is running, and powering a radio transmitter that's currently set to 28.34 MHz. The building has been decorated with a stuffed alligator, a fire-damaged painting, a torn painting, an earthenware vase, eight European paintings, two contemporary paintings, a glass globe and a stuffed fish.
Somebody has spraypainted Library rules: no killing, no cading, and ssssh! onto a wall.
There is a group of six zombies here. You recognise Snarfo amongst them.
The Survivor Security Zone
Xyu said "Hey all, and thanks for having me! Forgive me if my speech is a bit odd, but I've not been Harman in quite a while, so my bra!n is a bit rusty and slow.....mmm bra!nz........yeah, anyway....erm........yes! Onto the speech part." (14 minutes ago)
Xyu said "I'd like to start by talking about the SSZ, or 'Survivor Security Zone', as it's supposed to be called..." (13 minutes ago)
Xyu said "ah, and I'm infected, so I'll need some FAK's to get through this one, gah!" (13 minutes ago)
Millicent Bulstrode said "Hey - welcome, Xyu!" (12 minutes ago)
Xyu said "anyway, the SSZ." (12 minutes ago)
Xyu said "It's an ILLUSION! An illusion and a menace to the Zombies in the area. They want a place where they can be 'safe', but look at the size of the area they're calling the SSZ! They think this is secure?! It's madness, it's wrong, and here's why." (11 minutes ago)
Xyu said "1: The area these meatbags hope to cover is way too big and over ambitious. Almost four full suburbs + minor coverage in others? It's not secure." (10 minutes ago)
Xyu said "2: They've made the MAJOR mistake of adding part of Ridleybank to thier 'Zone', and that is almost beyond belief. Ok, if they'd left Ridleybank off and tried to cover the other suburbs it'd be crazy enough, but IN Ridleybank aswell? Huge mistake!" (9 minutes ago)
Xyu said "3: The simple fact that they're even NEXT to Ridleybank! If you're going to make a secure zone for people to be able to use, even placing it right next to Ridleybank is wrong." (8 minutes ago)
Xyu said "You can't place a 'Zone' of security near the homeland of one of the most fearsome hordes the game has ever seen and not expect something hugely bad to happen at somepoint. In fact, that's just asking for trouble." (7 minutes ago)
Xyu said "4: It's a bra!nz magnet! This is one of the best areas for Zombies to be in the whole of Malton, because there's food all over the place with its four malls. The meatbargharz should try picking a quieter spot for 'security' than this one." (6 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Thanks for the heals!" (6 minutes ago)
Xyu said "So yes, there's four reasons that come straight to bra!nz about this so called security zone, and even now, they're under assault and facing devastation throughout the whole place." (5 minutes ago)
Zombie Unity
Xyu said "Moving on now to my next subject, I'd like to speak about Zombie unity!" (5 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Malton would be a much finer place if more of the Zombie family joined hordes. There's so many ferals out there on the streets of Malton, and the hordes need them!" (4 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Look at the mystical stats page for instance. That strange, strange thing that somehow knows how many people are in each group/horde, and that often scares me because it's just so damn freakishly wierd." (3 minutes ago)
Xyu said "It's got way more Harman groups than Zombie hordes! This is quite obviously worrying, but I'm confident that it can be made into a better situation if we have more ferals joining hordes." (2 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "applause" (2 minutes ago)
Xyu said "It seems like one of the reasons why a lot of ferals prefer to stay like they are, is because they're maybe not upto getting into co-ordinated assaults, and whatever other horde stuff is happening." (2 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Well they should still join a horde if they can! Even if they're not doing anything other than having the name in their profile, it still makes the horde one member stronger on the mystical stats page, and this always helps." (1 minute ago)
Xyu said "If we had more of the fine undead doing that, then there'd be a good few more stronger hordes around, and things would look a lot better for Zombies across the city." (45 seconds ago)
Xyu said "It'd help show that we have unity! Zombie unity is a very needed thing in today's Malton, and it's a part of Zombie unlife that helps a great deal in making those Harmanz fear us, which is always a good thing." (0 seconds ago)
Gore Girl said "Stop barricading, Azderi! Some of the zambahz want to hear Xyu's speech." (4 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Well, unless it's the good Harmans in places like this, letting Zombies speak, or in the ULC of a mall every now and then, who decide that making Zombies awesome drinks is more of a priority than 'cades, as a mall is under assault." (3 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Yes, hordes and unity! Something that has given, and will continue to give, Zombies many victories over the Harmanz of Malton, and much Graaaagh'ing. (and bra!nz, of course. mmmmm.)" (3 minutes ago)
Xyu said ".....mmmmm, BRA!NZ! HARMAN HAMBARGHARZ! BRA!N BARGA!NZ! HAHAH! GRAAAAGH!" (2 minutes ago)
Zombie Riots
Xyu said "What the hell? What was I doing again? Ah yeah, a speech...................................ok, a few words about one final topic : Zombie riots." (1 minute ago)
Xyu said "Zombie riots are a fine, fine thing. I'm not just talking about all those aggressive-only fighting riots, with fists, feet, bottles and whatever the hell else flying all over either, I'm talking about riots of madness too." (1 minute ago)
Xyu said "The good stuff. The REAL riots. The place where it's really at. This is the type of riot where chaos rules the show, and it's a free-for-all. Freedom of madness! Great fun for all the Zombie family." (35 seconds ago)
Xyu said "For instance : you just broke into a building, and all you can hear is the screaming of some silly drama Harman(s), right? Well you gotta liven that place up! Find a music system if you can, put some tunes on, turn it up full blast, and let the chaos fly." (2 minutes ago)
Xyu said "A Harman will be way more freaked out if they get ripped apart by crazy rioting Zombies than they would if it was pretty much any other type. Why? Because they won't know what's going to happen next." (2 minutes ago)
Xyu said "So you've got the tunes on full blast, (and this is way better with Metal or Punk, but any music will do at the end of the day.) and now you're going to kill, right?" (1 minute ago)
Xyu said "Wrong! It's riot time. Get one of those pictures off the wall, smash it over your head, and dance. Rip a part of the carpet up or something, and start making the wierdest noises you can, and watch the horror on that Harman face!" (1 minute ago)
Xyu said "They have no clue what's happening anymore, or what you're going to do next, or how you're going to kill them!" (29 seconds ago)
Xyu said "So at this point they're freaked. Now it's time to up the ante. Get on the nearest bit of furniture and try yourself one of those backflips. It'll probably fail, but so what? Get back up and launch a few things through the nearest window," (2 minutes ago)
Xyu said "GRAAAAGH into the streets! Scream BANANARAMA! as loud as you can, with your claws around the Harmans neck whilst dancing to the tunes. Then you need a few more random acts of madness, (you'll pick this stuff up with rioting experience.)" (1 minute ago)
Sir Fred of Etruria stabbed you (SweetIrony) with a knife for 2 damage. (58 seconds ago)
Xyu said "with however many of you are around, THEN eat yourself some fresh, adrenaline filled bra!nz and enjoy. You'll feel like you've worked, even PERFORMED for your food, and you'll have way, way more satisfaction." (40 seconds ago)
Xyu said "Yep, the true Zombie riots are amazing fun, and something that more Zombies in Malton should be aware of, purely because of the awesomeness of them, and the terror they put into the fleshbags that would oppose us." (4 seconds ago)
NoRmedic said "*applauds politely but nervously*" (2 minutes ago)
Xyu said "And that brings me to the end of my speech, so thankyou very much for having me, and I hope the Quartly Study Group continues for a long time to come. For !ZANBAH! For BARHAH! For BRA!NZ! And for GRAAAAGH!" (2 minutes ago)
Questions
Sir Fred of Etruria said "**claps and cheers** Wonderful, informative material ! I would really love to hear more about '!zanbah'... does this place exist on a map or is it in the hearts of zombie children everywhere ?" (48 seconds ago)
sebff2 said "As one of the Cahos wing, Its nice to hear you speak at last, sir! I'll be seeing you in death again some day! (Aplauds)" (1 minute ago)
Xyu said "Both! It's in the hearts of all the Zombie family, and it's also here : http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Zombiefied_Republic_of_%21zanbah#The_Republican_Territory" (31 seconds ago)
Xyu said "hey sebff2! I thought I recognized you there, but my Harman side is a bit........strange and slow." (3 minutes ago)
Xyu said "mmm, that sponge cake is quite nice, and the chocolate milk! Almost makes me want to stay Harman..........................naaaahhh." (56 seconds ago) A flare was fired 2 blocks to the west and 5 blocks to the south. (27 seconds ago)
SweetIrony said "*applauds* Thank you so much, Mr. Xyu! I have a question, what do you think of zombie performing arts and their place in rioting? We have a member of the Broadway Zombies here (416363), and many other talented z!ngarz an granzarz."
Xyu said "That would be perfect for rioting! Anything like that done by Zombies is sure to be good for a screaming, fear filled Harman in the middle of a Zombie riot. Yeah that'd be a welcome addition to a riot!" (23 hours and 4 minutes ago)
Xyu said "I'm almost down to my last bit of energy now, so after this I'll be pretty much too tired to speak, and things will be about to seem grey.......then I'll have to get moving towards a horde. So thanks again for having me, and cheers for the food and drink!" (22 hours and 55 minutes ago)
Sir Fred of Etruria said "I've battled in !zanbah, fierce opponents. Oh, the Cahos wing ? Is MallTour'07 more organized than we'd anticipated ?" (22 hours and 51 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "To paraphrase Chuck Palahniuk- The first rule of the Chaos Wing is, you don't talk about the Chaos Wing. But honestly, I figured it was pbvious Mall Tour '07 is QUITE organized. How else can 300 or so zombies move 20+ blocks in 24 hours time?" (22 hours and 46 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "The Chaos Wing is perhaps the least organized thing about the Mall Tour, in fact. Death Cultists can work easily as independant agents in a mall seige; zombies can not, at least not in a seige." (22 hours and 45 minutes ago)
Vanderghast said "It's the magical power of the feeding groan. Transmitted using the secret communications arrays of lawn gnomes and powered by pixie dust, but still." (22 hours and 42 minutes ago)
Vanderghast said "Anyway. Much applause, Xyu ! Even though I find the prospect of more organized and violent zombies to be a slightly disturbing one, I would very much like to thank you for your input ! Your thoughts on SSZ structure are not unfamiliar, but truly, I had" (22 hours and 40 minutes ago)
Vanderghast said "not thought them to be so troublesome." (22 hours and 40 minutes ago) BRANAGAN said "All hail Xyu! Graaaaagh!" (22 hours and 40 minutes ago)
Sir Fred of Etruria said "For those who haven't read up, this MallTour invited PKers to join the fun. Last years was a pure zombie event. I think the numbers are much larger this year though. And Vanderghast, I've looted in the Tomogachi store in Hildebrand for days and never" (22 hours and 39 minutes ago)
BRANAGAN said "I'm a equal oppourtunity killer, Harmanz an Zambahz! Any advice?" (22 hours and 39 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "Maybe so. And its clear zombies can be artisticly creative (z!ng!ng and granzang), so why not also socially organized?" (22 hours and 38 minutes ago)
Sir Fred of Etruria said "once found the lawn pixie or the gnome dust. **shoulders slump in depression** But Branagan, welcome to the living plpease excercise the full alphabet in expressing your views." (22 hours and 37 minutes ago)
BRANAGAN said "Also, on a final note! When I finally reach the grand gates of Barhah in the ground, do you think they'll have a place for me in the Ninth circle? ( legendary Zambah heros.)" (22 hours and 36 minutes ago)
BRANAGAN said "Sorry." (22 hours and 36 minutes ago)
Darmoth said "'oy ! Some nutter's standin' outside - zhuckor or som'thin' like that. I took care o' his worst scratches, but he'll kick the bucket iffen 'e doesn't get summore." (22 hours and 35 minutes ago)
Ezekiel Jones II said "Xyu, sir, if i may ask a question before you leave;" (22 hours and 35 minutes ago)
Sir Fred of Etruria said "It's easy Branagan. Stay on advancing edge of a horde, follow feeding groans, kill every level 41 survivor in the entrypoint, and try joining 'X:00'... they might have something there." (22 hours and 34 minutes ago)
Ezekiel Jones II said "well, perhaos several; what do you expect will become of this fine library when the mall tour arrives? will it be possible for zambah-harman harmany to be maintained within it's walls? and finally, how would you reccomend we safeguard the precious books?" (22 hours and 32 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "BRANAGAN- advice on what? Just do what come naturally. When you truely love and wish to share the expereince of death, there is no other advice needed!" (22 hours and 32 minutes ago)
Ezekiel Jones II said "oh, and thankyou for you'r intrigueing speach sir, may the barhah smile upou you for all the days of your unlife." (22 hours and 29 minutes ago)
Xyu said "I'm not sure about the library, but I'll try my best to make sure that it doesn't get damaged too much, and that the books are left alone. You're probably best putting some plastic sheets up incase of blood spray though if any Zombies make their way in..." (22 hours and 26 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "Ezekiel Jones II - not that i speak for him, but my expereince is the Mall Tour has a fairly narrow focus on, well, MALLS. If the local mall puts up a good fight, this library may never even be vistited." (22 hours and 25 minutes ago)
Xyu said "Thanks Ezekiel! And on that note, I really have to get ready to leave, so with my next ap I'm going to have to leave. Sorry if I missed anyone's questions! Later all. :)" (22 hours and 24 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "(Ah, he must have found the coffee...)" (22 hours and 24 minutes ago)
BRANAGAN said "You're right, but what about the ninth circle? Or am I not yet worthy?" (22 hours and 24 minutes ago)
sebff2 said "I'd expect Xyu's visit here will carry a lot of weight towards protecting this place. The no-barricade policy is amazing, and looks to be working well, Perhaps the tag outside could be made more informative to out of town visitors?" (22 hours and 18 minutes ago)
