Seems like a bunch of cowards couldn't stand 10+zeds outside stickling and just ran. some survivors are struggling to retake the mall and other buildings around there are ruined, that's what we get from being close to Riddleybank. User:Somacula/Somacula 10:12, 4 November 2011 (BST)

Thanks to the combines efforts of local survivors, The Knights Templar & The Fortress (Dark Watch) the area has now been reclaimed by survivors. I would recommend a status update to green. All RB's are up and running and revive points are clear. There are few break-ins here and there (mostly Bridle Museum, St Christopher's Church) So come on back to Shearbank. It is safe once again! -Morrigana

Lazarus is down and heavily infested, Owsley is under seige, Sticking Mall is lost, and the condition of many of the surrounding burbs has essentially stopped all survivor inflow to the area. Despite my personal effort of about 15 days to rebuild the burb, I will probably evacuate by tomorrow, if not today. Recommend the same to other survivors, close to 80 Zeds here now, almost no infrastructure left.

"Crossing Shearbank today... Lazuras was just over-run by zombies again, about fifteen there. Whippey and Stickling Mall are still in ruins but with only a few scattered zombies... Didn't see many survivor held buildings... There looks to be a small horde of about twelve going around crushing buildings...in southern Shearbank atleast...That needs to be eliminated before survivors can rebuild." --Thormann 04:53, 18 October 2010 (BST)

The past few days have been eventful, with survivors attempting to re-establish themselves in Shearbank. However it was been a constant defeat situation for survivors as everytime a building is claimed and repaired, the zombies break in, kill all survivors and ruin the building. More and more survivors have been attempting to retake Shearbank and more buildings are up and running again. This is an encouraging sight for survivors as it has greatly raised morale which is always encouraging. However, Shearbank is still one of the most dangerous suburbs with buildings constantly being broken into and ruined. Those who are not killed have to flee and try their luck in ruind buildings which is becoming riskier as zombies are now inside most buildings. Some survivors even allowed themselves to be killed because they protested that "Zombies greatly outnumber survivors and the odds are greatly stacked against them". As usual the zombies showed no mercy and they were slayed.Lewis2314 00:13, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

November 26-27th
These two days have been disasterous for the high level players attemtping to reclaim Shearbank. Several buildings were repaired and some were even were powered, but soon enough the zombies attacked and killed the survivors and re-ruined the buildings. Suprisingly the zombie attacks were carried out by zombies, working independantly. With November 2009 drawing to a close, it is pretty safe to say that with the disasterous month survivors have faced, it is unlikely that any reclaiming of the suburb will be fully possible unless the survivors are very well organised and attack in big groups. Lewis2314 00:53, 27 November 2009 (UTC)
November 24th
Several high level players have been individually hiding within the ruined buildings. One by one they have been hunted down and killed. Manuel Tower, which had briefly been repaired by a single player has once again been ruined and the player has been eaten. Lewis2314 13:57, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Stickling Mall was just ruined moments ago by zombies from the Militant Order of Barhah. At this time, they are following the scents trails of survivors that escaped their ravenous horde, while they chant something that sounds vaguely like "send more brains". Survivors are putting up a stiff defense, and coming to the assistance of wounded people that have been trapped inside the surrounding structures. First aid kits are being passed out almost as quickly as they are assembled. --FLZombie 02:52, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

BREAKING NEWS: Several zombies from the BLF faction of the Militant Order of Barhah have managed to break into the southwest quadrant of Stickling Mall. Additional zombies from MOB flowed in through open doors, including those from the Inquisition strike team. All four quadrants had their generators destroyed promptly. An additional generator came to life in the northeast quadrant, but was attacked and destroyed in 83 seconds. Several groans were heard emanating from the scene, as well as the horrified screams of hiding survivors. No screams were heard shortly after 3 am this morning, and the quadrant is now ruined. --FLZombie 03:37, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Tons around the south east area of the mall. It seems the horde's spreading out to take resource points. Borror PD is completely gone, reports of a group of 30+ inside and I scouted another 30+ outside in the surrounding blocks. Various buildings are still well manned and well defended and people seem ready to give a fight.--John Mowry 16:48, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

While the Northern front of the suburb still holds, the Southern one doesn't. The Turner Building is ruined along with Josaphat General Hospital.

- Shearbank is a very long away from being dead. Turner NT is recaptured, Nisbet NT is powered, the south is in a pretty good shape. Edmund is still ruined but is expected to be retaken by tomorrow, as it constantly swaps sides for a week now. 3 buildings ruined, the rest is almost completely powered.--Thadeous Oakley 23:00, 12 December 2008 (UTC)

Edmund General Hospital has been the site of multiple acts of ruin and reclamation on Shearbank's northern border. So far a group of ~30 Zeds have been able to overrun it numberous times over the weekend, but abandon it for relatively rapid survivor reclamation. Reports of Zed activity in the SW centered around Nisbet NT persist.--The Envoy 05:20, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

September 24th
Stickling mall is still the focal point for a (somewhat lopsided) see-sawing battle between survivors and zeds. 75% of the Mall is again in ruins, closest resource buildings lacking manpower and weakly caded. Much of the burb's south is a wreck, some stability to the NE of the suburb. Total size of Zeds standing in and around a 1 block radius of Stickling mall ~125 at the time of this report. This place is going to be ugly and dangerous to survivors for a while. 28 Zeds standing at Allder revive point with multiple revive missions witnessed.--The Envoy 05:54, 24 September 2008 (BST)

At least 120 zombies in the 'burb (115 counted outside, with 5 in the mall, which is totally ruined). Of the remaining 16 Tactical Resource Points, 13 are ruined. In the east, a single powered NT and two powered factories remain. --Funt Solo QT 20:15, 21 September 2008 (BST)
This suburb has been under heavy assault by the Ridleybank Resistance Front's March of the New Flesh tour for five days, resulting in widespread death and carnage. The TRPs of the suburb are either ruined or on the brink of it, with a heavy zombie holding presence. Danger status updated to 'Very Dangerous'. --Papa Moloch 18:18, 21 September 2008 (BST)
September 20th
The center and southern parts of Shearbank are mostly ruined. Alot of small to medium sized zombie groups are spread out across the buildings. The east still holds some light and the only remaining functional Necrotech building, Gabe NT which supports the active and currently empty RP, Peppe Street (See UCC page for more advice (located under Current Events) --MisterGame 23:31, 20 September 2008 (BST)
A quick survey of the suburb revealed approximately 119 standing zombies (18 inside the mall, which has 3 ruined corners). Of the remaining 16 Tactical Resource Points in the suburb, only 6 are ruined. Two are without power, and the remaining 8 are powered. The suburb maintains a powered and operational hospital, NecroTech, Auto Repair, 2 Police Departments and 3 Factories. I have, therefore, changed the suburb danger level from Very Dangerous (150+ zombies, most buildings gone) to Dangerous (50+ zombies, many TRPs gone), in line with the given descriptions. (Note, this is a step up from yesterday's level of Moderate.) --Funt Solo QT 17:41, 20 September 2008 (BST)
September 19th
As Stickling Mall fell to the undead horde, a few hardy survivors took back the Whippey Building for a time. However, it was to be a short reprieve and now both mall and NT stand ruined. The surrounding buildings are just now being breached by the restless dead. Further east, the rest of the suburb is still in good shape with many powered buildings. For how long this lasts is quite another matter. --Guilty 20:20, 19 September 2008 (BST)
September 18th
The Whippey Building is in ruins, as is one corner of Stickling Mall, with the remaining four corners without power. Standing zombies (inside and outside the mall and immediate surroundings) number around twenty in total. They are (numerically) out numbered by survivors. --Funt Solo QT 15:42, 18 September 2008 (BST)
September 17th
The Whippey Building was breached by zombies today. Though the Necrotech facility was eventually cleared by stalwart survivors, this undead strike into the Stickling Mall region may signal the opening move of a larger invasion. NT scans reveal few zombies outside of the local revive location but the numbers are slowly increasing. --Guilty 03:06, 18 September 2008 (BST)
- Update: The RRF and their various sub-units have launched blitzkriegs that have seen the Whippey NT ruined and Stickling Mall's security compromised. The survivors may yet have enough moxy to pull off a recapture, but it will be a rough fight. --Guilty 04:51, 18 September 2008 (BST)
September 16th
Shearbank experienced a spike in PK occurrences during the last week and survivor reports seem to single out the RRF Gore Corps. Whether this is a prelude to a larger invasion by their undead brethren or merely isolated attacks, remains to be seen. The suburb is in decent shape otherwise, with Stickling Mall and the buildings in its immediate vicinity a bastion of supplies and safety (aside from the Pking). Minor but persistent zombie activity has led to a few break-ins, usually quickly suppressed. However, this could be an indication of trouble to come. --Guilty 15:10, 16 September 2008 (BST)

April 1st
More evidence of survivor activity. Buildings are being repaired and caded. Zed presence has prevented any major resource point from being brought online. Zed density remains much reduced from the levels witnessed during the Dead's tear through of Shearbank. Revive points are slow, but survivors are attending them.--The Envoy 01:14, 1 April 2008 (BST)

A minor setback has delayed the reconstruction of this suburb, the mall has a minor zed activity, Whippey has been raid and the Edmund General is ruined.--John Danesi 17:14, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
March 30th
Reconstruction has began in Shearbank, Whippey Building is functional and the mall is in cleaning process, 8 zeds inside, 2 corners with low barricades, all ruined. Shearbank needs love, come and love this suburb. --John Danesi 12:11, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
March 29th
Hm, seems like Shearbank isn't all that active anymore. Only big horde sighted was at Allder Row revive point. Mall is almost empty, only 5 zeds in, outside has 15. Anyone want to try their luck?--Murlge Gurgle The Murloc 13:13, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

External Military Reports on 25.96 MHz: "... leaving Shearbank, counted around a hundred and fifty outside ... a few big groups, but they're spread out ... no lights on down there ... the whole suburb's wrecked ... looks like the Nisbet Building has fallen ..." --FLZombie 23:04, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

March 24th
Zed Count: as of this writing 203 standing Zeds in the suburb, 155 if you discount those standing in revive points. That comes out to a likely hostile Zed density level of 1.55 Zeds per block, 2.03 per block if you include the revive queues. Stickling mall and one block perimeter has a zed density of 3.2 Zeds per block. Only two survivors were observed in the entire suburb, both in a bad way, and reconnaissance reveals only two building with any barricading.--The Envoy 17:31, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

Count of standing zombies at revives points: Allder Row has 48+ zombies, Male Way has 25+ zombies.--Lithedarkangel 22:03, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
The demolition of Shearbank has begun in earnest. Edmund Hospital has been ruined with its occupants dragged screaming into the streets and devoured alive by crazed mobs of the the lurching dead. The towns remaining NT's, Hospitals and Police Stations have all been destroyed and Stickling Mall is an abandoned ruin. Nothing now stands in the way of the dreadful zombie onslaught as it begins to systematically dismantle every last barricade and eat every last remaining brain in Shearbank. --Zeug 04:50, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
March 20th
Stickling Mall has fallen, all sections ruined...no standing survivors inside... the Whippey Building is ruined and there are 25+ zombies inside. --Lithedarkangel 18:20, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
Whippey NT is wide open with 60+ undead against 15 defenders and is lost. Stickling Mall SW and SE are ruined and completely overrun with large numbers of walking dead lurching through the aisles of Malton's biggest WallMart tearing customers and proprietors limb from limb and gorging on their brains and guts. All residents of Shearbank are advised to either batten down their hatches or flee east as the zombie hordes unleashed by the fall of Whippey NT and its Mall will now undoubtedly turn on the rest of the town in a feral feeding frenzy of truly horrible proportions. --Zeug 04:39, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
Stickling has finally fallen. At last glance (before I hauled all sorts of ass out) there were 96 zeds in the SW corner and 14 were reported in Whippey NT. That number is almost certainly higher now. After several weeks of unsuccessful Extinction pushes, re enforcements on the zed side has tipped the balance to the dead. --Parry hagen 02:43, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
March 19th
At about 00:00 GMT there was a break-in the SW corner with 22 zombies entering and 3 mall defenders dying. Most of the intruders were members of "The Dead". Survivors managed to deal with this attack rather swiftly and efficiently. EHB and 3 out of 4 corners lit. --MaDB0mBeR 01:18, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Warning! From out of nowhere a zombie horde has entered south Shearbank through Roachtown (most buildings ruined there). I counted around 30 zeds outside alone. The local Umbrella Corp HQ is under attack as I speak and the same goes for Nisbet NT. The Umbrella Corp shall attempt to keep the zeds at bay to prevent them from getting deeper in the suburb and reinforce the zeds at Stickling.--MisterGame 07:18, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
We have a PKer/GKer by the name of John Moleman running around. Guy killed someone in Whippey and then smashed the Generator after commenting "The Dead will come." Also, Recent scan shows 212 outside SW Stickling. --Chouta 12:57, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
Ever patient, biding their time testing the defenses and building coordination, Extinction Troops outside Stickling Mall have been joined by zethren from around Malton drawn by the horde of highly organized and motivated Beerhah needle junkies guarding Shearbank. Extinction along with elements of the Feral Undead, the Big Bash, various other smaller groups and wandering ferals, and now our cousins The Dead, number 230 standing zombies and 140 dead outside the SW entry. The coming battle promises to be a glorious affair for all concerned, both breather and non-breather, as the fate of NW Malton hangs in the balance.--Zeug 17:28, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
244 zombies, 135 dead bodies outside the SW corner. A small break in happened, with just four zombies.--Kingofallpie 20:34, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
March 18th
The Siege seems to have escalated somewhat in the past few days, as a low of 52 zombies was recorded on March 15th, and the current count stands at 115. All four corners are still lit.--Kingofallpie 14:56, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
At this time there is 170 zombies outside SW Stickling, and about 20 zombies spread out over the rest of the suburb. 190+ zombies calls for an increase in danger status.--Brainz 22:12, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
175 at latest count. The number has increased by 125 over the last 3 days. Are the Dead here or something? --Kingofallpie 22:28, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
March 17th
The latest "Siege of Stickling," now ten days in length since Extinction gathered by Shearbank's mall, seems to have reached some sort of detente or equilibrium. Extinction's penetrations of the mall's cades do come like clockwork, but it's been a few days since any substantial ruin or death has been dealt the survivors. Revive queues in Allder have very quick turnaround and even Death Cultist activity on behalf of Extinction seems to have lessened. There are reports of survivors not concentrated in the mall being plagued by PKers and saboteurs, and there are Zed break ins in other buildings, but it's unclear whether those Zed are Extinction or feral.--The Envoy 18:27, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
March 14th
Zombie infiltrations continue at Stickling however; they are quickly thwarted by the local survivors. --beeng 23:30, 14 March 2008 (UTC).
March 13th
As the Siege of Stickling continues more and more survivors arrive to the mall. Revive points are being cleared by the hour, and the mall hasn't had a ruined corner for days. PKing and GKing have picked up probably from combat revives. --Spencer J 19:44, 13 March 2008 (UTC). currently a horde of 75 zeds, and 50 dead bodies around SE corner of stickling, all corners are EHB and have power.
March 12th
Mob of 60+ zombehs still sitting outside SW Stickling. Reinforcements are needed in SW Stickling. Watch the cades as sombeh probes have been taking them down all day. --beeng 00:42 12, March 2008 (UTC)
All 4 corners of Stick are lit. Zombie break ins are frequent but each one is repulsed with more vigor and valiance than the last. Numbers within the mall grow with each passing day and revives remain fast and frequent. --Parry hagen 00:14 12, March 2008 (UTC)
March 11th
A small attack into the SW corner was repulsed, after just 3 zombies got in. No survivors died, though the generator in that corner was destroyed. --Kingofallpie 20:24, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
I can report 63 zeds still swaying outside Stickling SW this fine afternoon alongside 42 inert bodies, not to mention the 30 zeds shambling around inside the ruined NW entry to the Mall. The Shearbank defense is weakened but has managed to hold firm through round the clock break ins and multiple ruins at its NW, SW and SE Mall entrances the last few days. Morale remains high but each ruin is met with increasingly exhausted counter ruin as the constant battle takes its toll on the supply of first aid kits, ammunition and fuel for the busted generators. Revive needles are in abundance however as are the ranks of deranged combat revived former zombies. --Zeug 16:35, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
At the time of this report 61 standing Zeds outside SW Stickling. Stickling at least heavily caded in all quadrants, but only powered in the North. Resource points surrounding the mall have little to no zed presence around them.--The Envoy 11:49, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
Multiple ongoing pre-dawn break ins reported at Stickling Mall. Extinction Strike Team Shadow has breached the SE entry and the SW has also just opened up. The Mall defenders are nearing exhaustion with these round the clock assaults by the increasingly coordinated forces of the Undead. How long can Stickling, and after it Shearbank, hold against these battering rams? Only time, good reader, will tell.--Zeug 04:56, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
March 10th
Stickling mall is back to full health. All corners are caded, but not all of them are at EHB due to the ongoing zombie presence. --Kingofallpie 20:17, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Break ins at Stickling. 5 Sombehs in NW, 1 in SW. NW still ruined, other areas are HB or better. NEED A DISPENSER HERE to rebuild NW. --beeng 17:44 March 10, 2008
The combined forces of the undead gathering in the vicinity of Stickling Mall are now 150 strong with an Eastonwood Ferals pack spearheading yet another ruin in the NW entry to the Mall followed closely by Extinction Troops and local ferals streaming into the breach. Reports are coming in of Undeadites joining the fray which if true certainly does not bode well for the fearless defenders of fair Shearbank. --Zeug 15:29, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Stickling relatively secured as of this writing but 3/4 without power, and no radio capability anywhere in the mall. Humans with Extinction markings were witnessed destroying resources, a reminder against combat revives.--The Envoy 04:47, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
Stickling breached from the SW again. 40+ outside, 7 in SW and a few others wandering the mall. Human sympathizers are making raids on the generators and assassinating survivors as well.--The Envoy 03:21, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
March 9th
Two corners of the Mall, the Northwest and the Southeast, are ruined and open. One corner is still lit. --Kingofallpie 14:46, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
The Mall is currently fully 'caded, and at least one corner is lit. --Kingofallpie 04:53, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
March 8th
Extinction troops have been gathering outside the Whippey NT and SW Stickling Mall the last several days apparently following a tag team graffiti targeting spree led by NT Strike Team Shadow and the hordes' lead zombie Dr'Brainz. Fiercely coordinated Eastonwood Feral packs are also descending on the Mall along with a growing number of local ferals and now SW Stickling Mall is completely ruined with the Shearbank defense taking multiple casualties. Even so ruined Stickling is still standing strong against the combined force of the undead that tonight threatens to drag Shearbank back yet again into the nightmare. --Zeug 18:06, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
As of this report, 18 Zeds inside ruined SW Stickling Mall, with 28 Zeds and a lot of bodies outside the quadrant. It is unclear whether this is the Extinction group mentioned yesterday, some other organized horde, or a random gathering of ferals following death scents and feeding groans. Rest of Mall is full caded though unpowered. Surrounding resource buildings are fully operational.--The Envoy 16:31, 8 March 2008 (UTC)

The horde of 50+ zombies warrants a raise in threat level to Dangerous. --Kingofallpie 22:35, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

A horde of 50 zombies and growing is gathering outside Whippey NT drawn by the groans of Extinction NT Strike Team Shadow in its first exploratory forays through the barricades of the well defended needle factory. Shearbank is now a beacon in North Central Malton for both zombies and their food as Stickling Mall has fully revived and its numbers continue to swell. --Zeug 05:42, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

NT ruined for sure, everything is lost. Receiving reports of constant break-ins to the mall. Hope is gone. Much of /zom/ and Umbrella Corp have gone with River Tactics, evacuating Shearbank to avoid death and let the Bash pass through. We advise Shearbank residents to realize that nothing good is happening anytime soon and to please retreat to another suburb until they pass. Meanwhile, stock up on NT syringes; a DIRT:NAP revive point will be set up at Allder Row when the Bash is gone, to ensure Shearbank returns to full capacity as soon as possible.

NecroWatch provided a civilian scan report from the Whippey Building which revealed that there were 177 zombies within scanning range of the facility. Of note, there were 23 zombies at Edmund General Hospital and Farrant Crescent PD, 20 zombies at the Hawksley Building across the border in Millen Hills, 15 zombies at Lazarus General Hospital, and 14 zombies at Keedwell Plaza School. The remaining detected zombies were scattered with a few small, but potentially dangerous, groups to the southeast. --Mobius187 18:02, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Hawksley Building opened up and occupants under attack as of this writing. Zeds numbering 50+ were witnessed spread over the Millen Hills/Shearbank border in the vicinity of Hawksley. Looks like a 00:00 UTC timed strike.--The Envoy 00:15, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Lazarus Hospital is open wide with 20+ Zeds inside. Medics of Malton members are under orders to stay as long as survivors need healing, but there's not much we can do now. Once it's over we'll probably move with river tactics to a safer location. ChrisForelle 22:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
/zom/ of Anonymous will be evacuating the suburb as well, in accordance with River Tactics. We encourage all other citizens to follow*. When Shearbank is clear, our operatives and probably others will be reporting so over Shearbank Radio, 26.80, and of course on this Wiki page. When the Big Bash has cleared out, we encourage all citizens to join us in rebuilding the malls and surrounding area and cleaning out any more zombies. Those who die to the Big Bash will be happy to know that /zom/ will maintain a DIRT:NAP revive point for fast and efficient reviving. If you insist on staying, move what will inevitably be your corpse to the Addler Row revive point.

Edmund General has been broken into again, currently 12 zeds inside, power down, people being eaten. Suspect the undeadites. In addition, a NT scan this morning, revealed about 10 zombies, a scan 5 minutes ago showed upwards of 50 zombies.

February 17th
Regardless of the reading of Necrotech and presumably Umbrella affiliated recon elements, buildings in Shearbank are still coming under coordinated Zed attack. Today, Edmund General Hospital was again breached by an organized group of Zeds, inflicting infrastructure damange and some casualties. The attack was repelled, and there is no standing Zed presence outside of the hospital, though there are over 30 corpses on the ground. Area graffiti seems to be attributing these attacks to the Undeadites, a Zed group with 52 known members.--The Envoy 07:43, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
February 16th
I did a complete Necrotech scan of the suburb and doubled with the Unit's reconnaissance it has been determined that there are no more than 6-10 zeds in the area at very little times of the day, however Necrotech scans show a total of 1-3 zeds currently active in the area, this report however does not include the zeds waiting for revive. Downgrading danger level to green.--Jackson 22:54, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

When I need to get a message out to my men I am going to tune the radio to do so! On other notes, the Umbrella Trashsweeper Unit has returned to Shearbank and has begun operations clearing S.E.

This discussion continues on the talk page--Mister Nathan Marbles 01:48, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
Someone appears to be running through Stickling Mall re-tuning all the transmitters to random frequencies. Mall defenders please keep an eye on the transmitters and re-tune them to 26.80 if you see them on another frequency.
I've seen other transmitters on undocumented frequencies as well, but did not change them because I did not know if they had been maliciously re-tuned. Groups which tune to 26.80 please document your subscription to that frequency on the relevant location page. This will allow passers-through to help you keep an eye on your transmitters.
It may be a good idea for everyone to simply carry a radio tuned to 26.80. I don't see another way to counter this tactic.--Mister Nathan Marbles 00:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

February 10th
The neighborhood is quiet, with most of the zeds unable to make any headway, and the survivors far too sparse to do any serious zed clearing duties. Shearbank is surprisingly empty, with a pitiful number of survivors in the mall, and few still scattered across the 'burb. It seems the exodites that headed off to fight the Bash haven't returned. I suspect the neighborhood will fall swiftly when the zombies arrive. The survivors are far too dissipated to fight the bash. 03:58, 10 February 2008 (UTC) (Shackleton)

January 30th
Too low of a skill to do a NecroNet scan, but based on patrol, and reports from freq. 26.80, there has been increased zombie activity reported in the southern part of Shearbank in the past few days. Yesterday, a group of 11 zeds were sighted in Josephat Gen Hospital, but other then that no more then groups of 4 were occasionally sighted. Today, an organized attack on the Umbrella Corp's HQ was reported on the airwaves earlier. Reports of increased activity were confirmed when I logged in to find that the Borrer St PD had been compromised and two zeds were dragging survivors out. Since I had wasted a lot of AP scrounging for ammo a short time before, I did not take the time to venture outside to see if it was an isolated incident or a organized attack of a larger group. But it appears that the zeds have been making bolder attacks as of late. --BIGsinner 12:37, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

I know this is a personal report, but this is news and I am the only source I have. The Turner Building had its generator destroyed by Mighty Thor so I went to the factory next door to get a tool box to fix it but I found 3 zombies inside, whom I revivified. I then restored the building to quite strongly barricaded. --Agent zombor 01:33, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
I have check the NecroNet and I see there are only 11 Zombies not in oranized hordes. Can someone change this suburd to Green?

While there has been a slight uptick in feral zed and anarcho activity in Shearbank, let it be known that the hysterics about Fifield are over Zom's XP orgy. Survivors have protested this live fire "training" exercise in a civilized suburb, but it looks like the group has not listened to verbal protests and suggestions to move their gunplay elsewhere. The confusion is a security risk though.--The Envoy 19:38, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Nobody protested against our XP Orgy Plan, except this Shearbank Anarchy Cell Group. Most of the other survivors don't even care about us. We'll stay where we are. --ScouterTX 20:33, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Not entirely true, Scouter. We actually changed the plan in response to concerns raised on the barricade plan talk page. Additionally, the Envoy questioned the merits of our plan when it was first starting. Those two complaints however, hardly qualify as a "protest". Especially since half of the complainants went away satisfied.--Mister Nathan Marbles 21:53, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

Sweeps of the area show that at any one time 85% chance you will not locate any groups of more than 2 undead. The area is very protected and most survivors do dare stay outside overnight and rightfully so are rarely bothered. Several border disputes in the South when battles carry over from Roachtown but are defused quickly by survivor forces. Revives are often within the hour or two that you arrive at the point! If Shearbank isn't to be green, might as well keep throwing people off and determine the zone to be red.--Jackson 19:55, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
Swept the area near the mall, to find 16-20 zombies ouside it and 40+ corpses. The NW seems to be in need of a fire team sweep, so I hope we can sort something out. Together we can make Shearbank green if we try. Sorry about the lack of screenshot.ChrisForelle 20:53, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

NecroWatch reported scans recently from the Nisbet, Turner, and Whippey Buildings. The scans turned up an estimated 59 tagged zombies within scanning range of all three facilities. Interestingly, the scans revealed that of this number very few were actually in Shearbank. Of those zombies a majority were actually detected across the border in Roachtown, where 8 zombies were shown assaulting St. Helena's Hospital and another 5 zombies were at Croom Towers. --Mobius187 13:33, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Josaphat General Hospital is down, repeat, down. At the time of this report, there are twenty two dead bodies and two zombies outside, and six zombies and two survivors inside.

Southwest Shearbank is seeing continued activity from small groups of wandering ferals. This morning an attack was made on Josaphat General, and multiple zombies gained entrance. Almost immediately afterwards the barricades were once again torn down at the Turner building. Upham Auto repairs is still ruined as is the Luckraft Cinema just across the border in Roachtown-- Headshot Hal 19:47, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Upham Auto Repairs has been rebuilt, and is currently lightly barricaded with three survivors inside, and twenty-one dead bodies outside. The generator is powered and the radio transmitter is operating on 28.01 MHz. Nankil, another survivor inside, broadcast across said frequency for assistance. As for Josaphat General, it appears to be powered and operating.-- Anikal 23:19, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

/zom/ of Anonymous declares it's intentions to use the Fifield Motel at (50-22) as a training plan in their XP leveling project, XP Orgy 2.0, as it is next to their headquarters, the Junkyard next to the mall (51,22). This involves tearing down the barricades and leaving the doors open, which some players have not taken kindly too, coming back in force and rebarricading. /zom/ encourages these people not to do so, as some other members of /zom/ are getting trigger happy and might remove such people by force. There is a whole suburb of buildings out there, leave the Fifield Motel alone. AnonBorgTech001 23:35, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Shearbank still seems pretty quiet. The only known exception is the Turner Building, which has been broken into. Only a couple zombies and several survivors inside, but there seems to be very little being done within the last 24 hours about restoring the barricades and the generator, and dispatching the zombies that make it inside. If the kind of apathy present in the defense of the Turner building persists, the rest of the suburb could soon follow. --Splntrd 18:42, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

All seems quiet at the moment, resulting in a slight case of boredom; which seems to have resulted in people losing it a bit. PLEASE KEEP BUILDINGS THAT ARE MEANT TO BE VSB+2 AT VSB=2. People are dying because they leave their safe-house and come back a few moments later and they've been locked out. Please keep an eye open for PKers at revive points, especially at the Turner building.
Requests from Roachtown for reinforcements to even the score in the current running battles in the streets.

NecroTechnicians from Project NecroWatch were spotted in recent days at the Gabe, Whippey, Nisbet, and Turner Buildings. Rumors have it that they installed new hardware and software into every NecroTech facility with the goal of furthering coordinated and tactical NecroNet awareness throughout Malton. In truth, there are also rumors from other nearby suburbs as well which indicate similar activity which can only lead local survivors to conclude that the initiative within their suburb is not an isolated event. --Mobius187 21:06, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

This may not come under news but it's not as if much else is happening so why the hell not. To combat the rampant virus that is boredom from consuming Shearbank, me and my boys have taken to screaming incoherantly about cubes being our companions and cake being good and not a lie. Having little response from the public I have decided to become a radio broadcaster and will perform daily shows, including latest breaks in reports, interviews with the top players in Shearbank, by force if needed, chat shows where the public can get involved by text or radio in ground breaking debates, zed migration analysis and ideas and stuff from you, the public. Right now we're using the 28.60 MHz frequancy but if it's to bothersome I'll change it. --Vidad12 12:56, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

Seems Shearbank has returned to a state of normalcy or stability for the survivor population. While the Eatonwood Ferals did perform some blitz raids yesterday, the rev queues seem to be empty more often than not and those few who have shown up in the rev queues are more often the results of PKs than zeds. --The Envoy 12:48, 10 October 2007 (BST)

The Nisbet NT Building [55, 28] currently has four zombies inside. Barricades are at VHB and I it is powered as of this writing. One of the zeds is on less than 10hp so a loaded up survivor could take care of all of them in one sweet trip.--Nick 11:49, 26 September 2007 (BST)

Stickling Mall is under safe human control, with random DARIS attacks every other day or so. However, DARIS and her allies have become a minor nuisance at best, as the revive queues are back to full strength and the revives are coming come quickly. Many DARIS member are still trying to steal revives by sitting at the revive points, so make sure you scan before you use a syringe. On another note, the zombies seem to have left Shearbank for the time being. Most buildings have been repaired, and there are few break-ins. --AngelMaker 08:03, 16 September 2007 (BST)

It seems Shearbank Resistance members are using the Allder Row revival queue. It is unclear whether they are there to sabotage revivals, or taking advantage of careless revivals in order to return from their zed states in order to conduct more sabotage and attacks against what D.A.R.I.S. members are in Shearbank.

It seems D.A.R.I.S. members are using the Allder Row revival queue.

As of a few minutes ago, the bottom-left corner of Stickling was cleared of all but two survivors, with at least fifteen zombies inside and no barricades in front of the other 70+. --NeenerNeeener 22:54, 22 August 2007 (CST)
At least one Zed has been sighted in the recent Stickling breaches, claiming Democratic Armed Republic of Independent Suburbs affiliation. It is unclear whether this Zed or other Zeds in the group are members of the current claimants to the D.A.R.I.S. name gone from PK to Zed or an artifact of the original DARIS regime. --The Envoy 21:39, 22 August 2007 (BST)
Stickling Mall is still under siege with zombies breaching every couple of minutes only to be push backed by survivors and the breach resealed, but some more men on the bottom left corner would help keep Stickling safe. Active survivors seem to be low on A.P. and only able to keep the 'cades just up, someone willing to come down and put some AP into sealing the place up would help a whole lot. What matters however is we have been able to keep the zombies at bay, A few PKers keep coming through and picking off the people close to death, so try keep everyones health at a comfortable level. No sign of D.A.R.I.S. but I think they are avoiding standing too long in Stickling Mall.
It is presume that LUE has left, and its unclear whether this is a new group or semi-organized ferals. --Annun 17:34, 22 August 2007 (BST) edited by --The Envoy 21:39, 22 August 2007 (BST)
August 20th
After about a day of breaches, a 27 Member Zed group breached Stickling Mall, occupying the western half as of this update, complicating survivor efforts to rebuild Shearbank post LUE incursion, as well as efforts to figure out the actions of D.A.R.I.S.. The Zed group has yet to be identified, and it is also unclear whether this group is in fact working under the charter of the so-called D.A.R.I.S. group. Also unclear is whether the new claimants to the DARIS name are effectively clearing the suburb, as radio chatter and discussions in DARIS documents suggest the survivors are inflicting more kills on DARIS and DARIS sympathizers than DARIS is upon the survivor population. Anti-DARIS combatants have begun to trickle into the suburb, some of whom seem invested in protecting the original DARIS reputation from sullying by this new, and apparently unrelated besides in name, organization. --The Envoy 18:25, 20 August 2007 (BST)

A new group who claim to be D.A.R.I.S. have shown up and started PKing people in Stickling Mall and spraying propaganda around Shearbank.

Lazarus General Hospital has been invaded and is down. Small grounps of zombies roam most of the streets, and what buildings aren't ruined are at EHB. Stickling Mall and Edmund General Hospital have their lights on with a few zeds scattered about, but are at EHB. Local police stations are ruined. A bad time for survivors without Free Running. --Dr Spanky 19:16, 17 August 2007 (BST)

It appears the LUE invasion is over. As of this update, radio reports over the past couple of days indicate the main LUE horde is now making its way into Caiger. Recovery operations for the Shearbank suburb and Stickling Mall are beginning as buildings are cleared. One impediment in the Mall area was the movement, though poor planning or misleading communication, of a substantial portion of the Allder Row revive queue inside the Whippey NT facility. With the large number of zeds there allegedly awaiting revives, as well as the rotters intentionally staying therein, the building can not be brought online, considerably diminishing the availability and efficient deployment of revival syringes in the suburb. --The Envoy 21:50, 16 August 2007 (BST)
August 11th
Edmund General Hospital seems to be the site of intense fighting now. As a close source of medical supplies for relief to the immediate Stickling LUE impact area, its contested and unpowered status is another blow to the survivors. --The Envoy 16:10, 11 August 2007 (BST)
On my daily scouting trip I found that Meaker Lane Fire Department is now in zombie hands. It would appear that the horde is slowly moving southwards. As mentioned by The Envoy yesterday, low level 'survivors' with mainly zed skills have been identified in safehouses throughout Shearbank and some safehouses just across the Brooke Hills border.- Unema 09:16, 11 August 2007 (BST)

While Stickling Mall has indeed fallen, a considerable number of resource buildings and safe houses remain well maintained and manned throughout Shearbank.

Alder Row continues to be much less a revive point than somewhere for unfortunate survivors to go to be headshot, again and again. One realizes that silly little things like a block page indicating Alder Road as an RP are just guidelines and people shouldn't expect anything, but wouldn't it be simpler to just say 'There are no safe places to be revived, if you happen to get injected, count yourself lucky!'?

For some reason, people (especially those in the Lessey Lane Police building) do not follow barricading policy. Even after knocking down some of the barricades and telling the survivors there about the dangers of not following barricading policy, some of them continue to rebuild them up to Very Heavily Barricaded.

The suburb has sporadic groups of zombies and some buildings are either heavily barricaded, or very lightly barricaded. The hospitals and motels are barricaded, and as of yet, I believe the Fire Stations are still unbreached. Though I am unsure of the situation in the Mall or the Cathedral, as I've run out of AP.

USIT RECON REPORT: After a brief reclamation, the Stickling area of Shearbank fell to Zeds again. Reconnaissance of the NE perimeter of the suburb shows scants signs of survivor life. Probe of Northern border suggests a zombie density of 1.1 zeds per block; but this is only along the suburb's fringe. No intelligence on the zombie population in the suburb's mall core area.--The Envoy 05:14, 12 April 2007 (BST)

USIT RECON REPORT: Current zombie density survey limited to a 1 block radius around Stickling Mall: 2.18 zombies per block, factoring outisdie zeds and zeds in opening buildings. Largest concentration is still Whippey NT facility with 7 zeds. Organized survivor groups appear to be making some in roads into the suburb under the cover of darkness and radio silence, but locations will not be revealed for survivor security reasons. Rumors of pitched battles involving coordinated armor and airstrikes in the suburb and elsewhere have been overheard, but those reports have been ruled out as foolish hysteria or officially sanctioned misinformation.--The Envoy 21:53, 1 April 2007 (BST)

USIT RECON REPORT: USIT Zombified "asset" wandered a 1 block radius around Stickling Mall. Current zombie density is 2.56 zombies per block, factoring outside zeds and zeds in open buildings. Largest concentration is still Whippey NT facility with 13 zeds.--The Envoy 13:32, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

USIT RECON REPORT: While incoherent reports of survivors "tooming" "stolls" in Shearbank have been discouraging, USIT has been able to fit volunteer agents with surveillance equipment to monitor the situation post agent's demise. Our current "zombocam" has performed a pattern search confined to two blocks around Stickling Mall and, excluding known revive points, found a Zed density of 3.15 zeds per block on average. Largest concentration is the Whippey NT facility with a total of 15 zeds inside and outside the building. While survivors do not have the numbers in the suburb to reclaim Stickling or, as far as USIT can tell, any other part of Shearbank, this infestation could be easily overcome by an organized effort of not too great size.--The Envoy 02:41, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

The Mall was briefly retaken and the barricades were at VS and EH, but has since been rebroken into. There is a gathering of several different group members who are trying to restore the mall. They need reinforcements, the zombies are currently unorganized and clustering in groups of about 5-10 in the surrounding buildings. If a human presence can effectively be established, I believe that the mall and surrounding NeuroTech, Police and Hospital building can be retaken...--gothicchristian 10:58 AM EST March 19 2007

USIT Recon finds pockets of survivors trying to clean up in the wake and dregs of MT 07. Little power, and small numbers of zombie standing on almost every block. 3 quadrants of Stickling had 3, 4, and 13 zombies clustered outside them.

USIT recon report: Individuals should still stay clear of Shearbank. Probing efforts over the past couple of days along the suburb's fringe indicate small bands of zeds disbursed throughout the suburb, attracted to powered buildings and built up cades. While MT07 does not have the density it had around the mall during the height of the siege, zeds are well distributed through out the burb to still be dangerous to individuals and small groups. Recovery operations will require a substantially larger force than those currently committed.--The Envoy 15:55, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
February 23rd
As the suburb of Shearbank evidently falls into chaos following the collapse of the Stickling/Whippey siege defense, Fliers have cropped up identifying areas outside of Shearbank where survivors may seek revival, sanctuary, and revenge against MT07 and all other comers. (For those who can't decode the IC post, the link goes to a section of the discussion page I set up to route announcements recruiting and directing survivors to other areas.) In related news, the holding action at Ranahan has fallen as well as the Farrant Crescent PD. It is unclear whether there is organized resistance anywhere else, suggesting the whole suburb is now effectively lost.--The Envoy 14:54, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
With the fall of Stickling, an odd last stand of sorts is apparently being fought by a few survivors at Ranahan library. It is unclear whether this stance is some sort of "middle finger" being thrust at MT07, or a diversion for the organization of an eventual recovery mission into the ransacked area. At the time of this report, 7 zombies had breached the interior, with 60+ survivors dispersed among the library stacks.--The Envoy 12:41, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
Primary information gathering personel (read: me, reyes, envoy) have gathered at |LOCATION CLASSIFIED DUE TO PKers| near the mall to set up... something. a last stand? a covering action for fleeing civvies? a glorious battle alongside the C4NT? i don't know yet ,but we;ll probably do something. --Kaminobob 09:05, 23 February 2007 (UTC) update: the classification was unsuccessful, and after a frenzied duel, i was slain by PKer, shotgun enthusiast, and general bastard Born Evil. i managed to get the scum down to 14 HP, though.
It seems the Battle of Sticklingrad is fast approaching its end game. Zeds are outnumbering survivors in Whippey and now fully control the south-east corner of Stickling Mall.

about 477 zeds standing outside stickling + surrounding buildings. about 478 bodies. according to wiki records, the siege started around 25th jan 2007. thus it has lasted about 4 weeks 1 day. shacknews' attack on stickling last dec took about 2 weeks. is this the longest siege in urbandead history?

Fluctuating between 15 to 30 zeds in SW corner, zeds breaking in by the minute in each corner. The cades are going down fast. If you can stand and fight, or cade, we need you in there now. I can't account for bodies, but things are going badly for the survivors inside. Nuff said. --HereticSoul MRS 22:07, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Axe Hack is a known PKer/GKer, apparently trying to get survivors to leave Shearbank with this subtle and bad advice in the wiki. Survivors should use the DEM tool to make a revivification request at Allder Row, which has a minimal wait time when the tool is used. Stay in Shearbank, occupy the mall. --Pchem 19:16, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
A good look at the stats page shows there are only 161 zombies in MT07. Either they're receiving help from other zombie hordes, such as the RRF, or they took Mall Tour 07 off their profiles to help them get revives better...so they could wreck havoc on our gennies, radios, etc. I advise all survivors to watch who you're reviving. You may be reviving zombie spies. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 15:05, 21 February 2007 (UTC) Better yet...any survivor who needs a revive should head to Millen Hills in the north or Raines Hill in the northeast. --•▬ ▬••▬ • •••• •▬ ▬•▬• ▬•▬ #nerftemplatedsigs 15:09, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

February 20th
As of this message, the Zombie horde is curiously split. 200 zeds are outside Whippey, while 172 Zeds stand outside the SE quadrant of Stickling. As infection during this reconnaissance prohibeted further exploration, and radio transmissions from the mall area have been silenced due to lack of power and sabotage, it is not immediately clear how survivor tactics are addressing the Zed deployment.--The Envoy 15:52, 20 February 2007 (UTC)
Zombies continually adjust their tactics to hit the weakest corner of the mall. The Malton Rangers, C4NT, and The Lime Brigade, along with other local groups continue to adjust their defense strategies accordingly. As a side note, PKers are becoming more and more present in the area. As the siege enters its second month, the zombie attacks seem to only be intensifying. --Darth Cheney Malton Rangers 02:45, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

February 17th
Neutral facts. Fact: Mall Tour and their allied PKers have shifted targets from Whippey to SE Stickling. Fact: active defense groups such as Lime Brigade have now adjusted to counter this tactic. Fact: given the current number of survivors inside SE and zombies outside, zombies do not have sufficent power to bust through and ransack. Fact: this siege has been going on for over three weeks now, with the mall holding strong against over 300 zombies and their PK/GK friends. --Pchem 23:42, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
Urgent: Survivors are concentrated in the North-East Corner and Whippey, while the other corners are pitifully weak. Meanwhile, a group of zombies has splintered off from the main attack on Whippey, and begun to attack the South-East corner, with great success. There are, as of this moment, twenty-six zombies inside the South-East corner, as opposed to fifty survivors in the same quadrant. All survivors should spread out to all corners of the mall. Repeat, spread out! -Mark D. Stroyer 19:48, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

zeds have half of the mall now some one get here and help me Neji 22:06, 15 February 2007 (UCT)
In light of over-cading of entry points, graffiti and radio have been debating whether to abandon entry point barricading entirely, a ransacked building allowing the same access to fortified mall complexes as a VS entry point. This of course would sacrifice safe harbors for inexperienced survivors, but proponents of the barricade policy change insist such survivors don't belong anywhere near a mall siege. No official modification of the suburb's barricade plan has been made, and the debate seems to come down to an argument between non-Shearbank residents in Shearbank for the siege advocating abandonment of fortified entryways, and long-term Shearbank residents insisting entryways maintain their current 'cade designation. USIT analysts believe the change in policy would not change the frequency of overcading incidents, and would likely just waste more AP in defender dismantling of cades instead of wearing them to a VS level.
In other news, while resistance against Mall Tour '07 is still operating at vigorous strength, fliers have been distributed in the mall suggesting fallback NT facilities for emergency syringe procurement in the event of Whippey NT's fall. Both the Hawkley NT facility in Millen Hills and Nisbet NT in southeast Shearbank are four blocks from Stickling. When Whippey and the mall were lost to [Shacknews], these two facilities allowed relief forces to aid surivors' evacuation and eventual reclamation of the suburb.--The Envoy 21:49, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

I did a quick scout (of half the suburb) and i found out that all entry points are EHB. Buildings are either EHB or wide open with plenty zombies, be aware when entering buildings or wandering outside. Also the whippey building had no zombies outside, just dead bodies.

St Chris 13 standing, 50 lying. Alder 31 standing 59 lying. Odds!

Despite the hundreds of Zeds pounding away outside the survivors have done the impossible. All 4 corners of Stickling, the Whippey building, and multiple other nearby buildings are all lit.

Problems with getting inside the mall. EPs too strongly barricaded. Might be that the PKers and GKers are responsible... --Jim Bim
A massive crowd of zombies is outside Whippey, but there are now 200+ survivors inside Whippey (a new milestone). The largest coordinated attack of zombies today was repulsed with less than 15 zombies getting inside. While there are many standing zombies at Allder, most of those are brain rotters or other zeds from the Mall Tour, and any survivor revivification request at Allder using the DEM Tool has an extremely short wait time. Stickling and Shearbank are still holding strong, weeks into the siege. --Pchem 02:18, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

Caiger has fallen. Perhaps it was a distraction from Stickling, who knows. The point is, the bulk of Mall Tour '07 is here, it's too late to save Caiger, and we're losing valuable resources fast. This isn't a siege; it's a freaking war. Guys, the 'cades at Whippey are falling by the second; I watched 10 AP of hard work go to hell before my eyes. We're not going to end this siege right away by taking down the crowds outside Nichols. If we lose Whippey for good, though, we're done. We need toorganize. Rangers and whoever you're fighting with, Envoy or whatever, you guys need to set aside your differences for a while. Stickling's going fast, and unless we can retake Whippey, it's over. If you're looking for some XP, there're more than enough zeds breaking into Whippey for you to take down. Forget everything else; all unit converge on Whippey! --HereticSoul 01:57, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Public Service Announcement from USIT Shearbank Station Chief The Envoy, who's nowhere near Shearbank at the moment, as he's performing reconnaissance elsewhere: In light of the UK OFFCOM's suspension of pretty much all radio communication and electromagnetic spectrum regulations within Malton, and admitting that the latter has been useful to USIT (though we deny any official role in the regulatory agency's action), don't believe everything you hear on the radio. Apparently some still practice mass media credulity in even these incredulous times, so don't believe everything you read in the news either.--The Envoy 14:43, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

Already a deeply suspicious group, USIT formally announced today over Shearbank's radio frequency that they are officially harboring the infamous PKer and GKer Eric Harris as, they allege, he has now "turned over a new leaf". Not only are they harbouring this person, but they have also announced their intent to exact terminal retribution from any survivor in the suburb who might decide Harris still has crimes to pay for.
In the interest of fairness it should be noted that per the DEM's Rogues Gallery, Harris no longer has any outstanding bounties and should not therefore be a target for any bounty hunters in the employ of any DEM branch. --Kal 23:51, 28 January 2007 (UTC) (Jimmy "Two Stacks", MFD Captain, Shearbank)

Note to all survivors: Remember that overbarricading kills. It doesn't kill just newbies, it kills everyone. Before you do anything else every day, check the nearest entry point and make sure it is in accordance with the Shearbank Barricade Plan. If it's higher, lower it to VS. Make sure an entry point tag is on the inside. It doesn't do any good on the outside. -Mark 19:35, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

Oh noes! A zombie has shambled into the news board! Team one, try to figure out what it wants to say! Team two will try to revive it before team three can get to the weapons locker and kill it to death. Go, Go, GO! Also, date your posts. --Kaminobob 06:23, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Having returned from a vacation to warmer and zombie-free climes, i was pleased to see the restoration of shearbank complete, with survivor levels up to pre-shacknews levels, and RP's are efficient and nearly empty.
It's been said before, but i'll put my stamp of approval on it. This suburb is again in human hands. --Kaminobob 08:34, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

USIT Reconnaissance has also witnessed the "random" transmitter tunings. While it is possible there is some sort of organized disinformation campaign occurring in Shearbank, it is also likely that this is a product of the large number of RK activity still occuring at the hands and crowbars of anarchist agitators in the suburb. When a replacement transmitter is put online, remember to set the transmitter to an established frequency, otherwise you're only speaking to the ether. 26.80 is the frequency endorsed by USIT and RFLMAO. All operators should be alert to their transmitter tunings before broadcast.--The Envoy 16:21, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
Overbarricading is once more rearing it's ugly head. In a lengthy patrol of central and northern Shearbank, virtually every intended entry point on the barricade plan was at EHB. Time to break out the crowbar. Fortunately the zombie threat seems to be fairly minimal at present, but it only takes one zombie to kill a survivor trapped outside due to overzealous barricading by their fellow survivors. Also of note, many of the city's radio transmitters are being re-tuned to seemingly random frequencies, and tags containing useful information are being overwritten with bizzare slogans and unreadable non-western characters. Has disinformation become the "new" GKing? --Kal 14:06, 7 January 2007 (UTC) , MFD Captain, Shearbank.

Suburb appears void of standing zombies though many bodies litter the streets, most smell strange and are gathered at known RPs. What happened here? Stickling Mall is clear inside/outside & caded to EHB - Euphoriakill, MFD Edgecombe Captain, MEMS SE-2 Specialist, EEMS Tactician

New Years seems to mark the continuation of a holiday stability in Shearbank. No significant zombie activity to report. No warfare between survivor groups. Seems the only conflicts are over what frequencies radios and transmitters should be tuned to.--The Envoy 16:23, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
