Malton College of Medicine | Malton College of Medicine is a survivor group dedicated to teaching newcomers to Malton how to stay alive in a zombie apocalypse. Its faculty, staff and students are busy, visible and vocal participants in the life of Eastonwood and, when its friends and allies need help, elsewhere in Malton. MCM aims to support its local community in Eastonwood and neighbouring suburbs by healing the wounded, reviving the unwillingly undead, and by maintaining and defending vital resource buildings. Alongside its programme of lectures, classes and informal instruction in the mechanics, strategies, anthropology, psychology and ethics of life in Malton, MCM aims to provide a cheerful sanctuary for all its visitors at [[St. George's Hospital (Greentown)|St George's Hospital]]. | ||
What makes MCM unique is the focus on the new player. MCM is not about the veterans with big egos or about 'winning' the game: it's about the students. Faculty and staff spend a great deal of AP talking and teaching to help students progress through levels, often putting their own interests aside. We call out the names of the wounded so that freshman students without Diagnosis and Free Running, whose ability to gain XP is severely restricted, can acquire those essential skills as quickly as possible. For that reason, we ask that the healing of wounds be left to the new students. Most freshmen will gain almost all of their experience inside the college walls. Once they can diagnose and free-run, we encourage students to go on [[Malton College of Medicine/medic runs|medic runs]] of the surrounding area, helping the community and gaining more experience along the way. Faculty and staff are always available to guide students, answering questions, offering encouragement and reassurance, cracking jokes and lifting spirits. MCM is an interactive, noisy place, where the teaching takes place in an atmosphere of fun. | |||
Malton College of Medicine is a neutral zone. We teach and heal all survivors, regardless of group affiliation, whether or not they usually play as a zombie, have brain rot, or even feature in the Rogue's Gallery. PKing on college grounds is forbidden, as is bounty collecting. Our focus is on teaching our students, and PKing and bounty hunting disrupt the supportive atmosphere. | |||

Mission and Focus
Malton College of Medicine is a survivor group dedicated to teaching newcomers to Malton how to stay alive in a zombie apocalypse. Its faculty, staff and students are busy, visible and vocal participants in the life of Eastonwood and, when its friends and allies need help, elsewhere in Malton. MCM aims to support its local community in Eastonwood and neighbouring suburbs by healing the wounded, reviving the unwillingly undead, and by maintaining and defending vital resource buildings. Alongside its programme of lectures, classes and informal instruction in the mechanics, strategies, anthropology, psychology and ethics of life in Malton, MCM aims to provide a cheerful sanctuary for all its visitors at St George's Hospital.
What makes MCM unique is the focus on the new player. MCM is not about the veterans with big egos or about 'winning' the game: it's about the students. Faculty and staff spend a great deal of AP talking and teaching to help students progress through levels, often putting their own interests aside. We call out the names of the wounded so that freshman students without Diagnosis and Free Running, whose ability to gain XP is severely restricted, can acquire those essential skills as quickly as possible. For that reason, we ask that the healing of wounds be left to the new students. Most freshmen will gain almost all of their experience inside the college walls. Once they can diagnose and free-run, we encourage students to go on medic runs of the surrounding area, helping the community and gaining more experience along the way. Faculty and staff are always available to guide students, answering questions, offering encouragement and reassurance, cracking jokes and lifting spirits. MCM is an interactive, noisy place, where the teaching takes place in an atmosphere of fun.
Malton College of Medicine is a neutral zone. We teach and heal all survivors, regardless of group affiliation, whether or not they usually play as a zombie, have brain rot, or even feature in the Rogue's Gallery. PKing on college grounds is forbidden, as is bounty collecting. Our focus is on teaching our students, and PKing and bounty hunting disrupt the supportive atmosphere.

PKer Policy

Our Lists
DNR List
- We have a Do Not Revive List; doing something that gets you on this list will also mean we do not heal you.
- This list is reserved for people who are a threat to the College as Pkers, and for repeated griefers. You have to work to get yourself on this list. We reserve the right to add an entire group to this list should the behavior of the group warrant it.
- The DNR list is not a KOS list. It is a list of people whom we reserve the right to refuse to assist. Merely witnessing a PKing is not sufficient to add someone to this list. That is what the Rogue's Gallery is for. Report PKs witnessed off college grounds, and move on.
Please Don't Revive List
- MCM also has a Please Don't Revive List. These people have requested that they not be revived by MCM, or they qualify as "not-so-smart revives". These people have not misbehaved, and we have generally congenial relationships with them. We just aren't reviving them at the present time.
- Note that under "battle" circumstances, MCM reserves the right to combat revive these people should the situation warrant. Also, the nature of MCM means we always have less experienced members with us who are still learning, and who will occasionally make mistakes, including mistakes as to who to revive and when. We apologize in advance for this, but it's inevitable: if you hang around MCM, mistakes WILL happen. We will, however, try to not revive the people on this list when possible.
