===Description===
[[Image:AquaNT.jpg|100px|left|Necrotech]]'''The Whippey Building''' is a [[Building Types#NecroTech_Building|NecroTech facility]] located in the [[suburb]] of [[Shearbank]].

Recently Whippey has seen more troubles with [[PKer|killers]] and [[GKer|vandals]] than zombies.
 
The Whippey Building is directly adjacent to Stickling Mall, which makes it a very important [[tactical resource point]]. Survivors should guard this place at all costs if they wish to defend Stickling Mall. The nearest entry-points to this building are [[St. Christopher's Church (Shearbank)|St. Christopher's Church]] one block east and [[Edmund General Hospital (Shearbank)|Edmund General Hospital ]] 2 blocks north.

Members of project [[NecroWatch]] rennovated the facility in recent months, as they installed sensor eyes for [[NecroWatch/A.L.I.C.E.|A.L.I.C.E.]] throughout the building and uploaded NecroNet 2.0 into the facility's system terminals.<br><br>

While the cost in time and effort are currently high the certainty provided by being able to manufacture a constant stream of syringes has mitigated early concerns.

===Barricade Policy===
==NecroNet Reports==
This building should be Extremely Heavily (EH) barricaded at all times. This is in accordance with the [[Shearbank#Shearbank_Barricade_Plan|Shearbank Barricade Plan]] set forth by local survivors, who routinely monitor the barricade level for this building. This building is meant to serve as a safehouse for Malton's veteran survivors, and thus requires the [[Free Running]] skill to be properly utilized. Survivors who find the building's barricades below their assigned level are asked to assist in raising them back up in order to help ensure the safety of all the survivors staying inside the building. Any survivor found lowering the barricades may be directly "put to the question" by any survivors present at that time. If this happens the accused survivor must present a valid reason for their actions or be labeled a [[zombie spy]]/[[death cultist]] and be judged accordingly.<br><br>
 
===NecroNet Reports===
Zombie tracking reports are a free service provided by the NecroTech corporation to all its staff and local survivors in order to help facilitate quicker response times when managing zombie threats and to build a greater awareness of zombie migration patterns within the 9x9 block region around the Whippey Building. As a cautious reminder, only those zombies tagged with the [[DNA_Extractor#DNA_Extractor|DNA Extractor]] will appear on these scans, so actual numbers may vary when dealing with older zombies (i.e. [[Brain Rot]]).

'''August 8th, 2007''' - The building has approximately 70 survivors inside and is Extremely Heavily barricaded. [[Stickling Mall]] may fall under the siege, but this is relocation point should the mall be overrun.
 
:'''Update''': The building has been infiltrated by [[LUE]] spies, as evidence of the graffiti "LUE WILL CONQUER YOUR PITIFUL MALL". All survivors of the zombie attack are asked to please evacuate to this building if low on AP, or spread out as far away as possible to prevent loss of further lives.
 
::In response to the above, I don't think that's the work of LUE spies, else they wouldn't be very good spies, would they? More likely, the [[PKer|killers]] running around had something to do with it, or else a regular LUE member who was combat revived. In either case, it shouldn't be a problem rooting them out.--[[User:Insomniac By Choice|Insomniac By Choice]] 05:16, 9 August 2007 (BST)
 
:::Well, it doesn't mention who wrote the graffiti, so it is a good way of leaving a mark and inspiring fear. It may have just as well been some random person, but anything is possible.

'''February 22nd, 2007''' - There are 48 survivors and 25 zombies remaining inside Whippey.
 
'''February 19th, 2007''' - Problems. I just checked a second ago, and the doors were open and 10 zombies were inside. I managed to raise the barricades back up to VSB before I started to get attacked. I then proceeded to head over to Stickling Mall to alert people there, but no generators makes communication a problem.

'''February 17th, 2007''' - The situation isn't looking good. If the zombies manage to coordinate a massive break in then the they could gain the upperhand over the mall. Anyone who has got AP to spare needs to keep a watchfull eye over the barricade levels.
 
'''February 15th, 2007''' - Outside the Whippy building stand 300+ zombies. The building's barricades are still holding at Very Strongly.
 
'''February 13th, 2007''' - Whippey Building has about 200+ survivors inside. Our generators keep getting destroyed, and break-ins happen quite frequently; however, zombies are dealt with after barricades are rebuilt. Each break-in results in 3-5 survivor deaths. I'm unsure of the revive status or rate. --[[User:Goldy496|Goldy496]] 06:13, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
 
'''February 11th, 2007''' - The Whippey Building is constantly on the brink of falling. Break-ins are becoming more and more frequent and if the survivors cannot keep the building from the hands of the horde then the mall will likely fall as well.

'''February 9th, 2007''' - The [[Mall Tour]] seems to have shifted their focus from the mall itself onto the Whippey Building. There are now 255 zombies standing outside. Survivors could be in trouble here. --[[User:Tugbottom|Tugbottom]] 17:26, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Basic Info:

  • Office buildings owned by the company often associated with the zombie outbreak. From the outside, they are indistinguishable from other buildings, but characters with the NecroTech Employment skill are able to recognise them.
  • Among the internal descriptions found in NecroTech Buildings:
    The NecroTech logo is set in the wall behind the front desk, and doors open onto powered-down computer rooms and laboratories."
  • If a generator is running inside the building:
    "The NecroTech logo glows gently above the front desk, and doors open onto a number of brightly-lit laboratories and computer rooms."
  • NecroTech offices are tall enough for survivors to commit suicide from. They also provide a vantage point from which binoculars can be used.
  • Necrotech Buildings can be barricaded normally.

Description

The NecroTech logo glows gently above the front desk, and doors open onto a number of brightly-lit laboratories and computer rooms.

The Whippey Building is a NecroTech facility located in the suburb of Shearbank. Though a faceless corporate structure to the uninitiated, this facility acts as the heart of R&D for NecroTech within the suburb. Staff at this building commonly revive zombies at nearby revive points. This facility is one of four NecroTech facilities found in the suburb. Since late August 2006 the Whippey Building has been secured by survivors, and continues to provide excellent backup for survivors inside Stickling Mall, producing syringes for the revivification work at Allder Row. During the arrival of The Big Bash in Shearbank, Whippey stood strong while the zombies mainly focused on the southern NT, the Nisbet Building. Recently Whippey has seen more troubles with killers and vandals than zombies.
The Whippey Building is directly adjacent to Stickling Mall, which makes it a very important tactical resource point. Survivors should guard this place at all costs if they wish to defend Stickling Mall. The nearest entry-points to this building are St. Christopher's Church one block east and Edmund General Hospital 2 blocks north.

Members of project NecroWatch rennovated the facility in recent months, as they installed sensor eyes for A.L.I.C.E. throughout the building and uploaded NecroNet 2.0 into the facility's system terminals.

The activation of NecroNet with all NecroTech buildings has also allowed scientists to apply the DNA tracking research they have gathered to date.

Barricade Policy

In accordance with the Shearbank Barricade Plan, this site is to be kept at Extremely Heavily Barricaded (EHB+4). This building is meant to serve as a safehouse for Malton's veteran survivors, and thus requires the Free Running skill to be properly utilized. Survivors who find the building's barricades below their assigned level are asked to assist in raising them back up in order to help ensure the safety of all the survivors staying inside the building. Any survivor found lowering the barricades may be directly "put to the question" by any survivors present at that time. If this happens the accused survivor must present a valid reason for their actions or be labeled a zombie spy/death cultist and be judged accordingly.
