Suburb Number: 39 |
Spracklingbank is a suburb of Malton, located in the east of the city. Before the outbreak the local economy thrived on automobile trade; 9 parking lots once used to display everything from third-hand Volkswagens to gleaming Rolls Royces are now lined with row after row of smashed, burnt-out wrecks. Lately survivors have attempted to salvage the occasional vehicle, using one of the four local bodyshops to perform rudimentary repairs and modifications -- but these makeshift motors rarely get further than the suburb boundary before running down in a cloud of smoke, handily advertising the presence of a tin of harmarn braahnz to the local zombies.
Before the evacuation, Spracklingbank also attracted large groups of fans of the cult TV show, The A-Team, who flocked to the the Pepperd Museum to pay homage. Now the museum rarely has visitors as they are all out 'living the adventure' themselves.

Spracklingbank is getting overrun. Small packs of zombies every where towards the south. The warehouse next to Manktelow Square was full of survivors and has 5 zombies knocking at their door. --Rent A Troop 21:12, 13 September 2011 (BST)

"25.96 MHz: "... leaving Spracklingbank, counted twenty or so outside ... maybe a dozen outside Cornelius General Hospital ... several buildings with power ... some minor structural damage ... power's on at the Dewell Building ...""
That quote means that the suburb has got to be safe and looking at the individual building reports says that most of them are safe or rebuilding. There's a reason why survivors almost became extinct and it's because of the stupidity of LIEING and making POV suburb map updates. Just because neighboring suburbs statuses are very dangerous doesn't mean that the other suburbs have to turn very dangerous. More than likely that neighboring suburb has either someone over reacting, or they are lieing and making POV updates on a NPOV map, or they are doing the exact same WRONG thing that you have been doing.

Like in many other suburbs, survivors had managed to get many resource buildings back up, before zombies returned and put them down again. The Dewell Building, Cornelius General Hospital, Chippett Grove Police Department, and all factories and auto repairs are among the ruined. Very Dangerous. -- Kittithaj 12:06, 26 May 2011 (BST)
Interesting Facts
- Spracklingbank is named after Dr. Mickelson Sprackling, one of the founding fathers of Malton.
- The Chippet Grove Police Station is a common starting point for new characters (cops)
- Tambling Library was infamous amongst academic circles within Malton for its extensive collection of entomology texts, many of which predate the industrial revolution (and thus, are frequently misleading oddities). Tambling's collection is often mistaken for the one in Hecks Library, which boasts a respectable collection of books on the topic of etymology. Hundreds of students and academics alike have found themselves fruitlessly searching the wrong library for its associated texts.
- Salvage Cinema, abandoned in the 1950's, was renamed after it was discovered by its new owners in the 1970's, becoming one of Spracklingbank's premiere pornographic cinemas. Government crackdowns and the advent of VHS lead to the decline and eventual closure of the cinema in the early 1990's. The cinema was again reopened in 1999 for the premiere of the A-Team Movie and became one of Maltons leading entertainment hubs, but was closed down a few years later due to the areas zombie infestation and lack of cinema-goers.
