Suburb Number: 1 |
Dakerstown, AKA "Suburb One," is a suburb of Malton, located at the northwest corner of the city.
Dakerstown was the site of some of the first zombie-human interaction, as both zombies and humans initially gravitated towards the corners of the city. Some of this action (on the part of the zombies) was coordinated via the mailing list, and was thus an early example of metagaming.
Dakerstown is also notable as it was the last suburb to discover the location of its mobile phone mast and was the first to be given the classification of Ghost Town.
Dakerstown is a suburb that has seen a lot of action. The IWM, had previously enacted a policy of general hostility and fought several wars in an attempt to drive other groups out. For quite some time it was in a state of civil war between the IMW and several communist alligned factions. It is currently a battleground between local survivor groups the Urban Guerillas and FUACK on the side of communism, and on the zombie side Extinction. The Blue Aegis Group calls this suburb home.

FUACK has designated a junkyward (6,7) (1 NW of the Pask NT Building) as an indoor revive point. The adjacent Leeworthy Park (6,8) is also used as an RP, particularly in the event that the junkyard (6,7) is barricaded.

I saw several "404 BARHAH PK" tags a couple days ago while walking south from the Hewett Library to the NT, including one tag at the revive point northwest of the NT. Interpreting that as a sign of 404: Barhah not found's presence, added them to the group list. --Dallian731 16:32pm, 11 May 2009 (GMT)
- The Tags in question are posted over most of the North West of Malton, seemingly by the group Extinction. They don't really like our habit of coming and reclaiming territories. As such they are trying to turn public opinion against us by telling people we are a PK'er group.
- Although in actual fact its turned out to be good publicity. Everyone in the North West knows who we are. There's only a few of us in dakers at the moment. So I removed the link.--RosslessnessWant a Location Image? 16:50, 11 May 2009 (BST)

This diagram shows what levels buildings should ideally be barricaded to in order to provide protection in the form of Extremely Heavily Barricaded buildings, whilst designating entry points in the form of Very Strongly Barricaded buildings. Please note this plan indicates the preferred levels of barricades, and not the current levels.

About
Because of the sudden influx of zombies to Dakerstown this suburb is no longer safe for low level players; the barricade plan has been updated to reflect this change. Efforts have been made to leave resource buildings open for low level players but survivors without Free Running would be safer elsewhere. The placement of junkyards in this suburb make them ideal entry points, and the use of the junkyard at 6,7 as an RP allows revivers to save AP.
EHB Emergency Policy
During emergencies, all resource buildings may be raised to EHB as a precautionary measure. Survivors are encouraged to use the nearby entry points as an alternate. Citizens without the Free Running skill are highly encouraged to acquire it to prevent death in case of break-ins to VSB buildings. This status should only be set during times when the danger status for the suburb is at Very Dangerous, although other special circumstances may call for Emergency Status as well. At no time will non-resource buildings marked as VSB be caded above that level.
History
This barricade plan was updated on January 1st, 2011, for a more secure suburb. As of this writing, many of the buildings are ransacked and have zombies inside. A local survivor group is currently in the process of reclaiming the suburb. Survivors without free-running are advised to stay away as most buildings will be at EHB while the zombie threat is pushed out. The policy is subject to change without notice as local conditions dictate. --Zakarus 20:15, 1 JAN 2011 (UTC)
