Blackmore 4(04)
On August 19th, 2010, 404: Barhah not found repaired The Blackmore Building in what the group's leaders called a "failed pinata attempt." This so-called "Failed Pinata" stood for 13 days in the heart of Ridleybank and weathered innumerable attacks from the RRF Constables, ferals, PKers, and elements of the RRF before finally succumbing on August 31 to a joint strike by the Constables and Team America.
Blackmore 4(04) was one of the longest large sieges since the introduction of cade blocking. It included over 300 participants from over thirty groups, several of which seemed to have made a brief return from retirement to celebrate the original Battle of Blackmore's 4th anniversary.
One final point of interest was the introduction of Bellow, which got it's first real demonstration at Blackmore. Surprisingly, the skill appeared to be a dual-edged sword- while it did attract many ferals to the event, it also emptied the surrounding area of it's traditional feral cloud. Several survivor groups were able to take advantage of this drop in zombie numbers to repair larg-ish sections of central Malton- the jury is still out on how long these hideout will hold, of course. :) ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 03:38, 8 September 2010 (BST)
Yes
- It's been quite a while since I've seen something this big. ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 03:38, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- Aye, go for it.

- Both for the accomplishment of lasting as long and drawing as much attention as it did, as well as being a nice showcase for the new skills for survivors and zombies. --Maverick Talk - OBR

- Meatpuppet vote a-go! Erm...I mean...yes, the event was most certainly historically significant. It garnered widespread attention and attendance from a large number of the major groups currently in the game. For an impromptu event, it was unprecedented in recent years. As an event in general, it stands alone in that it proved that it is still possible to stand up against dedicated strike teams over an extended period of time in this post-interference era. It also deserves historical status as a testament to the immense efforts of those involved on all sides, some of which never had a chance to come to fruition. For instance, had it not cracked when it did, we'd be writing about the piñata strategy that the RRF used to finally crack the place a few days later. Either way, it is an event set apart and deserving of the historical status. —Aichon— 03:50, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- I disagree with almost everything said in the above summary. There was 10 days of fending off a large, but completely feral horde, 2 days of Zombie River Tactics, and 1 day of siege. However, this plague of ridiculous Pro-Life POV doesn't make the event less than significant. --VVV RPMBG 04:17, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- I vote yes because of the Naked Twister. --Justin 04:29, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- Totally. It should be a historic event, because it was. Sorry I sorta ruined the whole thing with POLNGOAK --Justinbronze 04:31, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- Hey, don't feel too bad. If it weren't for you, this would have never happened in the first place. ~ Red Hawk One Talk | space for lease 04:38, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- Ironically, Project Operation delayed the destruction of Blackmore. Upon hearing of a survivor insurgency, most Ridleys thought it was just foolish Project Operatives, and that random ferals could handle it. It was only when the intelligent survivors started declaring their presence that the RRF decided to smash them personally. --VVV RPMBG 04:40, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- POLNGOAK did a thousand times better than anyone predicted. It failed to the hordes, it was a bit short lived, but you achieved something and should be proud. -- LEMON #1 04:41, 8 September 2010 (BST)

No
- This is supposed to stand alongside the real Battle of Blackmore, the Caiger sieges, Santlerville and all the others? No. It was fun while it lasted, but it has all the lasting impact of a fart in a wind tunnel. (I do like the boxing picture in the article though. ;o) )--Papa Moloch 05:26, 8 September 2010 (BST)
- Fun, well written, i bet this happens again like next week. and can you imagine how many dead hamsters moloch has in his buthole? the stench!----sexualharrison

Secondary list of chronological order?
Any votes against the creation of a timeline below the alphabetically ordered list of historical events? I'd list the events along with the dates they ran. I just think it'd provide for a more reasonable reading of this page, and world lore. Jeffool 10:55, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
