Gitp urban dead survivor group (Recruiting again!)

[Zakama]

Defenders of the Playground is an Urban Dead (http://www.urbandead.com) group, founded and based here in Gitp.


We are recruting! Go the the end of the thread to sign up. Post your Urban Dead name and a link to your (UD) profile, and make a profile here. (http://www.defendersotp.proboards74.com/) Please use your Urban Dead name at the message board, but put your GitP name in your signature.

[Gaelbert]

This is a place for free message boards. (http://www.proboards.com/signup.html)
My group in Hell Rising uses that place.

[LordVader]

Looks good. Major Powers will be my dude for this group. Suggestion: We operate out of some area that has a (relatively safe) mall or a reliable place for ammunition close nearby, such as a fort. Also, I am only Level 2.:smallfrown:



Ooo, I'm at creedy too. And you've never heard of Freewebs? (http://www.freewebs.com)

And we should operate near a mall, not fort. You can get the coolio shopping skills. Also the reason I was asking for skype accounts was we could set up a chat in skype. No way for other people to read it.

Prob is, I need 150 XP for those.:smalltongue: I'm gonna need some time to level up before I join the group location.

[Zakama]

OK, we can start out in a normal building or a fort, but we should move to a mall soon. And a freewebs site lets you have group info and other pages as well as a forum. But for now lets focus on a name.

We should get Rich to sponsor us and then we could be the Giants Angels! :biggrin: [/delusional fantasy]

Real ideas now... Playground Crew?

[LordVader]

First of all, we need more memberz. 3 isn't going to count for anything.

[Zakama]

4. Forgetting me?

We can make an unofficial group with 4. And I was editing while you were posting so check my post if you didn't vader.

[Gaelbert]

I love how Urban Dead and other games like this have been taking over this Other Games section.

[LordVader]

I thought we had 3- Gaebert, Me, and Zakama. Who else is there? Also, I'll get Free Running next and then can go wherever.

[starwoof]

I'm here.

We could be the Sons of Giantitp! :smallconfused:

[Zakama]

That's cool, but I think we should use playground somewhere and with yours no girls could join.

List of proposed names
Reformed Church of Banjo* (By Lordvader I think)
Playground Crew (By Me)
Sons of Gitp (starwoof)
(Here's a new one) Children of the Playground

I'm leaving soon so I may or may not post till Sunday night, and may post a few times before I leave.

*Because the EK group might be the Church of Banjo (?) Vader please verify, you were in on the EK group before this one.

[Gaelbert]

I think the EKer group fell through, I hope not, but we don't have many people. Defenders of the Playground, or Defenders of Malton's Playgrounds.

[LordVader]

That's cool, but I think we should use playground somewhere and with yours no girls could join.

Much rather do a survivor group then EK. More feasible, although EK would be funny.

[blackout]

I could join. I was thinking of getting in on the Urban Dead bandwagon anyways. :smallbiggrin: I really wanna play a soldier, though...

[Gaelbert]

Jump, jump, jump, jump! On the bandwagon, I mean. If you do want to play as a military person, I would suggest scout because they start out with free running. However, fire fighters are the best, period. MFD all da way!
Someone put up some graffiti recently that said: MFD- Because even the police need heroes.

[blackout]

:smallconfused: Can people from different factions work together?

[Gaelbert]

If by factions you mean fire fighters, scientists, civilians, that stuff, then yes. In fact, every group pretty much needs people with all of those skills and abilities to get by. Police should have their inventories full of ammo and guns, fire fighters should have toolboxes and sometimes FAKs, medics should have FAKs, scientists should have revive syringes, and so on. There's no way one person can carry all the items required. Communication and working together is essential.

[blackout]

Well, what does the group need, specifically? What are you guys missing?

[Gaelbert]

I am a reviver scientist.

[blackout]

So, you're the human bandaid box. I think. :smallconfused:

[Gaelbert]

That's more the medics job, but I do overlap. I'm mainly the giver of life.

[blackout]

So, your the resurrect-bot, and the medic is the band-aid box. Ok.

[starwoof]

Wait, what was I talking about? I really like the reformed church of banjo. :smallconfused:

[LordVader]

I could join. I was thinking of getting in on the Urban Dead bandwagon anyways. :smallbiggrin: I really wanna play a soldier, though...

Don't be a scout. They don't start with an effective way to kill people. Join up as either a cop or Private if you want to be "military". Private gets FR faster, but takes longer for skills like Bargain Hunting and Shopping. My guy is a strictly combat type.

[Gaelbert]

Eh, I always play as civilians anyways, with the notable exception being my reviver.

[Albub]

I've got everything but for surgery and knife combat. I'm already grouped, but by no means won't step in and help you guys in any ops you're pulling off. Check the Aardwolf Rangers on the wiki.

[Jacob_Gallagher]

I'd join, but unfortunately I'd have to kill any DEM or CDF members.

[Zakama]

Alright, lets get this group started. Come to fort creedy. I'll pick a building near there, post it here, and throw up some graffiti to mark the spot. Post your names (again if you already did) here so we know who to look for. I'll make the freewebs site when we have a name. Now thats all we need... A Name...

[blackout]

I like 'Covenant of the Broken Fist....' What? It's the name of a group of evil guys that my group's BBEG leads in one of our latest campaigns.

[Zakama]

We're good guys... plus that has nothing to do with Gitp or urban dead.

[blackout]

Your point? It's a name.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Well, I just joined so I will be willing to join a group of more experienced players

[LordVader]

I'd join, but unfortunately I'd have to kill any DEM or CDF members.



Wouldn't want a PKer in the group anyways.:smalltongue:

Major Powers, currently in the Fort Creedy armory.

[blackout]

I've finally decided, I'm gonna be a Private. :smallbiggrin: *likes to kill things*Ok, where can I find a map?

[LordVader]

Google Urban Dead Wiki. Has everything you need. Figure out your relative position to Creedy, whether you can make it there in one turn, and especially your 'burb's danger level. Read "First Day in Malton", and look at the Map of Suburbs for your 'burb's danger level. Post where you dropped in here and I'll help you.

[blackout]

Roger that. Making character as we speak, loading Urban Dead wiki.

EDIT: The Urban Dead Wiki is down! :smalleek:

[LordVader]

Make sure to never spend the night out on the streets, or you're toast. Usually you can find a VS caded fire station or something before you reach Creedy.

****, yeah, it is. Tell me where you dropped in.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Well, I want to join up with you guys. I am currently a private and in Miltown, near the Batts Tower How would I meet up with you guys.

[LordVader]

Wiki is back up. You lucked out, you're in a safe burb in the very corner of the map. Go to Wiki, then the map of Suburbs. Plan your route. Seems that you have a clear path north of safe 'burbs. Creedy is at the western border of Pitneybank. Click on the burb itself, and there's a map of the actual burb in there somewhere.

We're gonna meet at Creedy, apparently.

[blackout]

I dropped into Penny Heights, we're not too far from eachother. Try to link up with me, Kojiro.

[Kojiro Kakita]

I am almost out of action points. So moving from my current position isn't a good idea. Mind coming over here.

[blackout]

On my way.

[LordVader]

Kojiro, go north to meet him, then spend one more day moving north into the last green 'burb, and then the day after that, run for Creedy. Make sure you plan the run out using the map, though. Blackout, what is your UD name?

Kojiro, where are you now?

[blackout]

Lucas Rock, look for Lucas Rock. Heading south, already in Fryerbank.

[LordVader]

Flippin' idiots overcaded the Infirmary! >_<

[blackout]

Damn. Alright, people, I'm guessing we'll need a new rendezvous point?

[LordVader]

No, the gatehouse is still open.:smalltongue: Creedy is 9 squares. And this is usually fixed quickly, it's irritating cause that's the sole source of FAKs in Creedy.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Well, let see, I am in a warehouse next to the Club Macdonnell and Pownall Street School.

[LordVader]

Also, GET FREE RUNNING FIRST!
You can both get it for 75 XP, which is nice. My suggestion is for the low-level users, that we run Zed sweeps out of Creedy for a little while until we have Free Running, Construction, and Advanced Firearms training. That way, we have a safe base until we can freely operate abroad.

[blackout]

Man, this is fun.

Alright, headed south, Kojiro. Just sit tight, find yourself somewhere to hole up for a few minutes. I'll be down there, ASAP.

[LordVader]

Engaging zeds outside of Creedy gatehouse. Dropped one, anticipate at least 1 more kill. 141 dead bodies here.:smalleek:

Some no0b just stole my kill. :p Engaging the other zeds. Do not anticipate a kill, however.

Just nailed a zed for 15 damage with a flare gun.:smallamused:

[blackout]

Damn, Kojiro, you dropped into a freakin' hot zone, I've counted at least a dozen zombies since I stumbled into Miltown. Their everywhere.

[LordVader]

A dozen? That's tame. Kempsterbank has at least 75, with all the hospitals ransacked. A dozen zeds is to be expected, every burb has some. If they're not together, it's not a problem.

[blackout]

Well, I suspect I'll be seeing more very soon....I can't see either of the places Kojiro mentioned on the map of Miltown....

[Kojiro Kakita]

What is the name of our group again.

[LordVader]

Well, I suspect I'll be seeing more very soon....I can't see either of the places Kojiro mentioned on the map of Miltown....

Then hole up somewhere for the night. Warehouses are best, avoid PDs and hospitals like the plague. They attact too much attention.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Sorry I was being attacked so I moved. Currently in Fryerbank. My current position is 94,86

[blackout]

Dammit...alright, where in Fryerbank?

[LordVader]

Just finished off the last zed outside Creedy. Am now Level 3. Nailed one with a flaregun, the odds against that are pretty steep, but when it does...oh boy.:smallamused:


I am now a Free Runner. Just need 150 XP for Construction and then can move out.

[Kojiro Kakita]

A suburb North of you.

[LordVader]

Make that 100XP, actually. Will have to spend a turn stocking up on ammo, though. Give Blackout exact building name, too.


Also, D-D-D-DDDOUBLE KILL!:smallamused:

[blackout]

Not too far, en route.

[blackout]

Alright, inside warehouse, you should be looking right at me.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Okay, so we have met up. How many AP points do we have left. I have 9.

[blackout]

I have 15. We won't be able to make Creedy today, Vader.

[Delilah Jane]

I'm new on these boards, but I just want to let you guys know that I have a char in the vicinity of Creedy (she's in NT south of Giddings) and I've been looking for a group to join for ages. My girl's name is Delilah Jane & she's 35th level Military. Think she'd make a good addition to the team?

[blackout]

35th level military? Hell yes. :smallbiggrin:

[Studoku]

I'd join, but unfortunately I'd have to kill any DEM or CDF members.

I'll also join but I'd have to kill any CGR members (most of them are Pkers anyway). This could cause problems.

I'm a lvl 19 civilian survivor named Studoku
http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=883753
I'm currently in the DEM but I'm going to leave. I'm in Dunningwood and I'll return to creedy to meet with everyone else. I just have 2 problems to fix- I'm out of AP and I'm a zombie.
If we meet in the north east barracks, it's less crowded than the gatehouse (although you will need free running because it's permanently EHB).

[Delilah Jane]

:biggrin: YAY! :biggrin: So, you want me to meet the gang at the Gatehouse?

[blackout]

Well, me and Kojiro are kind of holed up in a warehouse in Fryerbank, we can't go anywhere. We have a civilian in here with us, and the warehouse isn't barricaded in any way. If you're nearby, and have a spare gun, or some spare ammo, y'know, you could...I dunno, come down here and loan it to one of us? :smallbiggrin: *really wants to kill some zeds*

[Kojiro Kakita]

I think we should wait for a while, until we get our AP maxed out and then do the dash to creedy.

[blackout]

Alright, then. We'll need to ditch this civilian guy along the way, though. He's bound to cause trouble. I can tell.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Should work? But the question is will he attack us?

[blackout]

If he does, we'll kill him. We both have pistols, and plenty of ammo.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Should we be bothered by the fact that our building is lightly barricaded though?

[Delilah Jane]

Which warehouse in Fryerbank? The one N of Parr Towers, or the one next Club MacDonnell, or the one next the Press Motel? :smallwink:

[blackout]

The one next to Club Macdonnell. We'll be here all day.

[Gaelbert]

This is a good map. (http://map.aypok.co.uk/index.php) I t has coordinates and all that stuff.

[blackout]

Been using it.

[Zakama]

OK, If you have said you want to join, Thats great you're in. If you havn't, please don't post now, wait a little while so the group can get started but then we would love to have you. Just kinda chaotic right now. (Sniff... My brainchild is becoming a reality...)

[blackout]

Let's make a list of what everyone is, what they currently have access to, and their in-game names.

[Kojiro Kakita]

I will agree to that.

Kojiro Kakita
lvl1 Private
Pistol and Ammo x2
in Fryerbank.

[Delilah Jane]

Blackout, that's about a 40AP trip from my current location, so it's just a little far for me to go today. Just give me your chars ID#s so I can revive you if (Zombie Jesus forbid) you should die before you wake.

[blackout]

No, a LIST. Like the guys in the Town Hall Thread in the Town.

And my ingame ID is Lucas Rock. Good to have you aboard. :smallsmile:

[Zakama]

OK I was just working on that. Here is the list (I will edit it as a get info)

OK Jacob and Stu you may join but you can not PK at all. Agree and I will remove the *.

Starwoof, vader and bert what are your names again? everybody else tell me theirs too!

Also I'll start a poll for names so I need official nomanations. Get em in quick cause i'll start the poll soon.

Zakama = Zakama
Starwoof
Lordvader = Major powers
coolgealbert
blackout = Lucas Rock
Jacob Gallagher*
Kojiro Kakita = Kojiro Kakita
Delilah Jane = Delilah Jane
Stu42*
heritic = F S M
Stoneburr = Stoneburrs Jr

[Kojiro Kakita]

anyone knows what this means
"WWW.SEQA.TK / VS ONLY ENTRY POINT"

[Zakama]

I went to the URL, SEQA looks like a group, VS=very strong? as in 'cades?

[Kojiro Kakita]

In that case should we try to move?

[Delilah Jane]

It has to do with a group by the name of DK13 (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/DK13_@_www.dk13online.tk). They were (according to their wiki-page) the first one created in the game. The tag ''seqa.tk/VS+2 Only'' is one that I have seen on Hospitals & other bldgs designated as entry points.

[blackout]

Delilah, if you're closer to Creedy than the warehouse me and Kojiro are holed up in, then head there. Regrouping is our first priority.

[heretic]

I have a level 40 alt with nearly 2000 extra XP sitting in the Creedy Gatehouse as we speak.

I have a bit of a criminal record, since I just killed Decken in full view of 350 survivors. He was a PKer, but I'm not sure how well I conveyed that fact. Since there are 350 people, you have to say things seven times in order for all of them to get a chance to hear. I said it maybe twice. :smalleek:

Anyway, I'd be glad to help.

Unfortunately, it appears Decken got a revive and proceeded to kill my ass yesterday, so I'm currently seeking a revive.

Name is F S M.

[Zakama]

Did you not read the whole thing? I asked for people not to join untill we really got going. We'll take you then though.

[Delilah Jane]

Maybe we can use the Junkyard outside the Gatehouse as a rendevous, as there are less people & more items to find there? Heretic, tell me where you're shambling & I'll gladly stick you with a needle. :wink:

[blackout]

That'll work...still can't find Creedy on any maps...

[Delilah Jane]

Ft Creedy (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Fort_Creedy) is located in SW corner of Pitneybank & SE corner of Peppardville.

[blackout]

Alright, found a route. Thanks.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Well, when do you want to start the move.

[blackout]

Well, it says that the Fort Creedy Gatehouse is 14 blocks west, and 38 blocks north of where we are. We can't make the run just yet.

[Kojiro Kakita]

here is the info on the warehouse we are currently in http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Warehouse_94%2C86
This means that either it has been attacked by a zombie recently and after their destruction they left. Or it means that the guy with us attacked the place, which may piss off a couple of groups.

[blackout]

Should we run for it now? Find a new place to hole up, maybe? :smallconfused:

[Delilah Jane]

Well, when do you want to start the move.

...already there, mon frere. :tongue:

[Studoku]

Fine I won't pk, except in retalliation.

I only kill pkers anyway.

[Zakama]

Good idea, the warehouse is now the official spot.

Here is a list of names so far:

Defenders of the Playground
Playground Foundation
Church of Banjo
Playground Crew
Children of the Playground
Covenant of the Broken Fist

Any more?

[Kojiro Kakita]

Possibly, but we really can't go that far. maybe try the building to the north of us.

[blackout]

Alright.

Me and Kojiro are on the move, heading north.

No joy, Kojiro, the building's overbarricaded. No way in.

[Zakama]

Just so you know we wont do anything as a group until everyone is in the junkyard and has full AP.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Okay in that case blackout, come back to the warehouse. I will try the club and see if we can get in there. If not we will remain at the warehouse and hope for the best.

[blackout]

Understood, 47 blocks south of the gatehouse, 14 blocks west. We should be there in a day. Got it, Kojiro, headed back.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Hmm, The club is also heavily barricaded. To the south of my position there is a person and a zombie in the same local. Wonder if I should assist.

[Delilah Jane]

Here is a list of names so far:

Church of Banjo*
Playground Crew
Children of the Playground
Covenant of the Broken Fist
((The Militant Order of Banjo-fans. The MOB for short))

*If the EK group falls through we could take this, or we could claim it before they do.

Any more?

Just my addition to the list. :wink:

[Zakama]

OK, I'll edit it into the list.

EDIT: on second thought, We may not all be Banjo fans, so I don't think we should use that. We should have a neutral, but still Gitp-ish name.

[Kojiro Kakita]

I think I am going to remain in the warehouse. I got into the club, but it already has 4 people in there. I do not know if they are friendly or not.

[blackout]

Let's go assist. I need the XP. :smallbiggrin:

:smallannoyed: Ok, that was not smart of me. *didn't think that through* Yeah, I'm asleep. In public.

[Captain van der Decken]

Eheheh.

*copies list for further use*

[blackout]

:smalleek: PKER!

[Gaelbert]

Is the warehouse at 94,86 our place? I'm confused. Can someone drop me the coordinates? Right now I'm Kinch Heights, newly brought back to life. I'll head up towards the area by Creedy, right?

Edit: Shoot, I'm infected. I'm gonna make a pit stop at a hospital for a while and then continue my journey.

Caelibert, Reviver. (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=969983)

[blackout]

I'm running back to that warehouse. We'll be up there soon.

[Delilah Jane]

Gotya, Zakama. Hows about: In Cahoots? :smallwink:

[Delilah Jane]

Caelibert, Reviver. (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=969983)

Ok, I've added you to my Contacts. Now add me (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=675429) to yours.

...please. :smalleek:

[Gaelbert]

Unfortunately, it looks like the EKer group has fallen through for now, so it looks like the Reformed Church of Banjo is available. I'm voting for that.
And this:

Eheheh.

*copies list for further use*
is why I suggest a seperate board, for important confidential stuff at least. If someone uses info from this thread, it won't even be considered cheating.
I APed out in some ruined building somewhere around Kempsterbank I think.

[Zakama]

I was hoping for just Church of Banjo, not reformed.

[Gaelbert]

Whatever. Both of those names are available now.

[blackout]

I'm still all for Covenant of the Broken Fist...

[Zakama]

I'll start a thread with a poll soon if no-one else has names.

[Delilah Jane]

Sounds like a plan, Z-man!:smallsmile:

[Gaelbert]

This is another place where we can have a confidential forum. (http://invisionfree.com/)

[Zakama]

Do you have something against freewebs?

[heretic]

Did you not read the whole thing? I asked for people not to join untill we really got going. We'll take you then though.

You guys are gaining two pages a day on this thread. Of course I didn't read through it all.

I'm alive again, so whee.

I also have six syringes, three FAKs and a bunch of guns in case any of you need assistance. I'm going to loiter in the gatehouse now.

[blackout]

What kind of guns do you have? :smallbiggrin: *WANTS SOMETHING GOOD and is a moocher*

[LordVader]

I say Militant Order of Banjo, or Defenders of the Playground. Also, we should have the low-level people operate out of Creedy until they get Free Running and Construction, as those are essential to surviving "in the wild".

Sorry, Blackout, can't give other people guns.:smalltongue: And my next 50 AP will be spent on a massive ammo run at Creedy armory, all my shotguns are empty, used both my flare guns on zeds, and chewed through half my pistol clips.

Is Delilah Jane a Playgrounder's UD profile? Because she greeted me, so I'm assuming whoever controls her reads this thread.

[heretic]

What kind of guns do you have? :smallbiggrin: *WANTS SOMETHING GOOD and is a moocher*

I can't give you any, but I have probably four shotguns and four or five pistols, all fully loaded.

Five shotguns and four pistols. One shotgun is half empty, but the rest are good to go.

[LordVader]

Crap, Lud Lum was running rampant in the Creedy gatehouse. Idiots keep reviving her...
Also, is Delilah Jane the UD profile of anyone here? NM, got it. Added you and coolgaebert to my UD contacts.

Major Powers:Ass-Kicking Military Type. (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=995487)

I APed out in some ruined building somewhere around Kempsterbank I think.

Kempsterbank is a hot zone right now, you could be in a lot of trouble. Also, just a request? Any PKers here thinking of using this list to hunt us down, in the name of the Playground, let's just have peace between us, okay?
:smallsmile:

[blackout]

Sorry, Blackout, can't give other people guns.:smalltongue:

Why not just drop 'em and let someone else grab 'em? :smallconfused:

[LordVader]

Because if you drop it, it goes back into the "pool" of things you can pull out of the building. Chances are no better for finding it then they normally are.

Least, I think that's how it works.

[Stoneburr]

Hey Guys, I have a fully leveled survivor, who I haven't played with in about a year, rockin somewhere around Fort Creedy, ready to go.

http://urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=411818

I'm one of those crazy cats who started out as a civilian with a cell phone, anyone else try that? Great fun. Till you die.

[LordVader]

Added to Contacts. Coolgaebert, Kempsterbank is a hot zone right now, you may wake up dead.

[Delilah Jane]

Stoneburr, I (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=675429) just added both you & Zakama. (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=841987)

[LordVader]

So far, I have Stoneburr, Delilah Jane, Zakama and Coolgaebert's characters on my contacts.

[Zakama]

Heck, why not. Stoneburr and heritic, you're both in.

I still need some peoples names! to see if I have yours, look on page 3 I think.

[LordVader]

Alright, Blackout, Kojiro, and Heretic, we need profile linkies for our contacts lists.

[Delilah Jane]

Vader, me & the Z-man are in the Junkyard just outside the Gatehouse if you want to join us.

[blackout]

What good are contact lists? :smallconfused:

[LordVader]

So you can see who your friends are if they're zeds. Also, just good to have to remind yourself who's a PKer, who's an ally, who can be relied on, etc.


Also, I fell asleep in the armory and am gonna need at least 30 AP more of searching for guns 'n' ammo.

What 'burb are we gonna operate in?

[blackout]

That depends, which burbs need cleaning up? :smallamused:

[LordVader]

Well, we can either be a mobile group or one that's based in a suburb. I'd prefer the latter.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Kojiro Kakita http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=1001360
Ahh Blackout, we have 3 zombies to the South West. They seem to be attracted by the generator, (someone turned it on). Hopefully they will ignore us.

[Stoneburr]

Just a heads up, I would recommend getting a private forum, but its up to the group. Having a bounty on your head and knowing exactly where you are is not fun, i've been there before.... :smallannoyed:

[blackout]

Crap, let's bail! Fast! I got 4 AP! :smalleek:

And the first one offers plenty of roleplaying experiences...yes, I went there. I like this game, and it offers a decent chance for roleplaying. I'm a roleplaying nut.

[LordVader]

Meh. Roleplaying < surviving, IMO. The main problem with RPing is that speaking takes an AP. Also, guys, you should be fine, the Zeds are probably out of AP. Don't worry. Actually, if the place is Lightly Barricaded, then yeah, get the hell out of there, now. Problem is you need to find another VS or lower building.


Also, Stoneburr, we're working on that, but seeing as this isn't a PKing group, it shouldn't be too much trouble.

[Gaelbert]

Nothing agaisnt freewebs, I was just putting out options.
A few hours after APing out in a ruined building with closed doors, I'm still alive with 6AP, but no good safehouses in sight.

[blackout]

The place isn't barricaded at all. :smalleek: Should we start running now?

[LordVader]

Get the hell out of there, but make sure you can reach another safehouse. Also, gaebert, the Auto Repair to the west of Kempsterbank is where my MFD alt is holed up.

[Delilah Jane]

We could always base ourselves out of Ridleybank. That place is just begging for a spanking. :biggrin:

[LordVader]

...:smalleek:

Easy for you to say, Miss Level 41 Maxed-Out Uber-L337 character. :smalltongue:

Bad idea, we'll get completely slaughtered. Even the NMC couldn't take down that place.

[Gaelbert]

I like it. We die so that others may live!

[Stoneburr]

There's a reason why "We don't go to Ravenholm/Ridleybank."

[Delilah Jane]

What are ya, a buncha wussies? :wink:

Oh, and I wouldn't worry about getting killed. Just make your way to Creedy & I'll revive you. No Charge...

Remember: In Soviet Malton, You Give Death the Finger! :biggrin:

[Stoneburr]

Just said there was a reason, didn't mean it's not a great idea. :smallamused:

[Gaelbert]

Haha, Riddleybank is already diagonal to where I am. I'm in south eastern Roftwood, Poultney Street Fire Station [69, 58].

[Kojiro Kakita]

I say we try the club. AS long as the people in there are not Pkers we should be fine. Currently, I am there.

[LordVader]

So you're saying that as long as the people inside a building are Player Killers, you'll be fine?:smallconfused:

[Kojiro Kakita]

You know what I meant.

[Delilah Jane]

AS long as the people in there are not Pkers we should be fine.

...er, nevermind.:smallredface:

[Kojiro Kakita]

Okay, I get I made a typo

Anyway, there is a lvl 41 person in here. Hope he is friendly.

[LordVader]

Actually, man, I didn't. One typo makes a world of difference.:smalltongue:

Also, PKers aren't all that common, you should be fine. Try to save up your APs if you can, though.

[Gaelbert]

None of my alts have ever been PKed. Thye have been zombified, but that's because I was in the northwest when the updates came out and extinction went all psycho. Bottom line, don't worry about PKers when there are more pressing concerns. There's really not all that much you can do to stop them.
Edit: I tried to find an actual safehouse, but I just APed out in the streets of southeastern Edgecombe. Very bad.

[Delilah Jane]

Griefing (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Griefer) is much more of a problem than PKing, IMO. I've run into more of those type of players than the other in Malton.

Would that be the update where you could ransack buildings?

[Marek]

Okay, just joined Urban Dead and so far seems like it could be a pretty fun game. I'm currently in Lockettside, but i've been hearing rumors of a massive zombie invasion coming, so i'm getting out of Dodge before my brain is munched. Vinnam (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?mode=view&id=1001727)is now operational!

[Delilah Jane]

I tried to find an actual safehouse, but I just APed out in the streets of southeastern Edgecombe. Very bad.

Where away, cool? I may be able to direct you to a safehouse when you wake up (or barring that, revive you when/if you die in your sleep).

[Delilah Jane]

Marek, you forgot to add your ID# in the link.

And now that I've looked at the Edgecombe (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Edgecombe) page, I see several things that recommend it as a potential base of operations for our little group.

[heretic]

Zakama, update the first post in this thread with everybody's profile. After that, I'll post mine.

[Marek]

Okay, edited so the previous link works. APed out in Spicer Hills (at least I made it to a safe house), is that a good or bad thing?

[Delilah Jane]

OK, I've added you to my contacts. It looks like you're a 2-day journey away from the rest of us, so it's unlikely you'll "arrive alive" as the saying goes. Just do what you can & I'll add you to the (potential) revive list. :smallwink:

[Zakama]

OK done heritic.

You want to join Marek?

Also I don't know how to get to my profile but Delilah you're in the meetup junkyard with me so can you link to my profile please? Thank you!

[Marek]

Ah, if only dual-wielding axes was possible. Used my last AP in the safehouse and I found an extra. And yes, I would like to join, Zakama.

[Zakama]

OK, you're in.

[Marek]

Oh lordy, I just checked out how far I have to go to get to Fort Creedy :smalleek: Ah well, at least it'll give me a chance to level.

[blackout]

How far are you? Are you near where me and Kojiro are holed up?

[Marek]

Somewhere in Old Arkham, sleeping away while zombie hordes roam the streets.

[blackout]

We're in Club Macdonnell, in Fryerbank.

[Gaelbert]

I'm still alive, though probably not for long. When I last got off, I was inside a building with the doors open and a zombie inside, and I had 0 AP. Now, I have 0AP in a building with closed doors and a zombie inside.

[Marek]

Hmmm... I've been reading up on Fort Perynn, and it's really caught my fancy. The invasions are a problem, but imagine if we could overcome them: a beacon of hope in a zed-infested neighborhood, Fort of the Stick (or Banjo, both sound catchy to me)!

[Kojiro Kakita]

got a mobile phone now.

[Delilah Jane]

Here's that link you asked for, Zakama (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=841987). Sorry about the delay in posting, but it seems someone cast a Symbol of Sleep on my pillow &... I failed my save. :smallredface:

[Zakama]

Yay, Thanks! (bookmarked)

Ok, If there's no more ideas by my 5:00, (GMT -5) I'm starting the poll.

[LordVader]

I know the SE division of the DEM academy is currently in Edgecomb- indeed, my Firefighter alt is going there. I suggest we begin operating in a fairly safe area until everyone's leveled. Am going to spend 30-40 AP looking for ammo and then will meet you in the junkyard outside Creedy.

[Studoku]

Great, I just got killed by Calvin Machiavelli (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=819834) while I was in the mall. He's with the CGR (Creedy Guerilla Retards) and as a result is an enemy of CDF (Creedy defense force) and DEM (Department of emergency management, including my old group).

If I see him or any CGR member, they will die. If you see any, let me know:smallamused: .

I'm going to mrh around walrond for a bit until I get a revive, possibly snacking on any survivors who try and sleep outside.

EDIT:I'm at the revive point:There are 52 dead bodies here. You recognise Calvin Machiavelli amongst them.

Karmarific.:smallsmile:

[LordVader]

Just make sure that if more people then you can talk to are there, that you broadcast the reasons on the radio.

[Zakama]

The poll is up. No more name ideas!

Me (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=492929). It would be nice if the first post also included links to said profiles.

[LordVader]

I second that. I'm waiting in the junkyard.

[heretic]

I'm also at the junkyard or gatehouse, can't decide.

[Marek]

Now that I actually have some AP, i'll start mosying on over to Fort Creedy. I'm going diagonaly, so any hotspots I should look out for and avoid?

[blackout]

See if you can link up with me, I'm making a run for Creedy. I'm at Club MacDonnell. Kojiro, try and catch up with me there.

[Marek]

I'm in Dartside right now, so i'll just keep heading east, if you want to meet up. If not, i'll kep on with my diagonal crusade.

[heretic]

Arriving posthumously isn't a problem, so don't go out of your way to avoid hotspots.

[Studoku]

Now that I actually have some AP, i'll start mosying on over to Fort Creedy. I'm going diagonaly, so any hotspots I should look out for and avoid?

Here's a useful map of the suburbs http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Suburb

In a green or yellow zone, any reasonably barricaded building is safe. The best buildings to sleep in are Hotels, pubs, clubs and any other places that are of little use to survivors.

Police buildings are often attacked because they always have survivors.


Arriving posthumously isn't a problem, so don't go out of your way to avoid hotspots.
Good point. If you need a revive, stand at a cemetary or a revive point.


I have enough AP to stand and run for the junkyard but if it's barricaded so I can't get in I'll have no AP left to try somewhere else. I can check the library to the north too- it should be VSB.

Wish me luck...

[heretic]

Good point. If you need a revive, stand at a cemetary or a revive point.

I'd say just continue your journey as a zombie instead of wasting time waiting for a revive. We can revive you once you get here.

[Marek]

I've been using that map and whatever maps I can find of the suburbs i'm walking through. APed out in Kinch Heights, and the only place not overcaded was St Hubertus's Hospital, which i'm currently camping out in.

[blackout]

I made it! I'm at the Ft. Creedy vehicle depot as you read this!

[Kojiro Kakita]

See if you can link up with me, I'm making a run for Creedy. I'm at Club MacDonnell. Kojiro, try and catch up with me there.

Do we want to start moving out soon?

[Studoku]

I'm finally in the junkyard. I'm not sure who else is there because I'm out of AP.

[blackout]

Yes, you should start moving now. I'm already there, in the gatehouse. Move it, soldier! :smalltongue:

[LordVader]

Blackout, I suggest you spend your next 50 AP searching for guns and ammo in the Armory, and 2-3 FAKs in the Infirmary. Also, I'm in the junkyard.

[Kojiro Kakita]

****, I won't be able to make it. Going to find a place to bunker down in Pegtown. Does anyone have a good idea on where I should hide?

Currently hiding in the Cork Building.

[LordVader]

Avoid PDs and hospitals, find a VS warehouse if possible.

[Studoku]

****, I won't be able to make it. Going to find a place to bunker down in Pegtown. Does anyone have a good idea on where I should hide?

Dinham alley PD is meant to be caded to VSB so you can get in.

[LordVader]

But if it's a hot zone, PDs are certain death. If it's safe, no problem.

F S M is someone's UD profile, right? Also, if you haven't posted it yet, please do.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Hmm, Pegtown doesn't look that good. From the wiki page, it seems that large zombie mob is moving in soon. I plan to hold out at the cork building for the moment. Some high lvl guys in here so.

[Verruckt]

Alright, this has piqued my interest, dropped into the Pitney bank PD, any suggestions?
oh, and the name is Father Durkon

[LordVader]

Head for junkyard outside Creedy, and profile linky.

[heretic]

Starwoof's character is Steve Harvey. Stu42's is Studoku.

And I'm in the infirmary, not the junkyard.

[Verruckt]

where can i find the profile, and a link to it?

[LordVader]

Click on where it says your name above your HP and AP, and copy-paste URL. Also, I believe we're meeting in the junkyard.

[Marek]

I'm not sure if we've chosen Fort Creedy as our base of operations, but I just found a nice little suburb a bit north: Pashenton (http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php/Pashenton). It has a healthy zed population for us leveling players to sink our teeth into (no pun intended), and it has a number of secure buildings to choose from. And a plus in my opinion, it has a mobile phone tower. If we all end up with cellphones, it could end up a handy way for us to quickly spread news to everyone on the contact list.

[Verruckt]

out of ap now, was ransacking the armory for bullets and such, here's the profile
http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=1002482

[Gaelbert]

Don't wait for me you guys. It may be a while before I can get there.

[Stoneburr]

Do we all want to go there? I'm up for anything.

[Verruckt]

i'm all for marek's idea, i could use the xp, also, should we consider a uniform?

[Zakama]

You want in on the group?

Also: It's official! We are (drumroll) The Defenders of The Playground! Huzzah!

[Delilah Jane]

As for uniform, Delilah Jane is wearing her standard "GI Jane" outfit: green t-shirt, camou pants, green boots & red beret to blend in with the other Army-types in the vicinity, but you know us girls: every day is a good day for a makeover. :wink:

[Verruckt]

oops, :smalleek: forgot to announce my intentions, yes I'd love to join up, Banjo willing. As far as uniforms go, it doesn't have to be a full makeover, just a few recognizable pieces of color-coded clothing, think gang colors :smallwink:

[Zakama]

OK, I'm working on setting up the message board for us to use, (I'm actuality not doing freewebs, after all that. Heh.) and I need to shorten The Defenders of the Playground for the URL. Any ideas?

[starwoof]

Wah, I'm here, I'm here... I forgot to subscribe to the thread. I'll head out for the HQ tonight... if I can find it's location on the thread.

Lets kill some zeds!:smallwink:



EDIT: Uniforms are a serious fashion faux pas! I prefer my straight white and aviators, thanks. :smalltongue:

Also... HQ was actually only 3 squares away from me. :smalltongue:

[Verruckt]

TDotP should work

[Delilah Jane]

...think gang colors :smallwink:

[Cartman=voice] Out-siii-eeed! [/voice] :biggrin:

*after peeking at Verrukt's siggy, DJ starts humming The Ballad of Jayne* :smallcool:

[Verruckt]

Delilah i do believe you have inspired me, shall we wear brown coats?

[Marek]

Maybe we could pattern a uniform after one of the members of the OotS.

[Krrth]

Alrighty, I'm interested in joining. Profile is http://urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=867380 I'm currently in buckley mall, in wyke hills.

[Studoku]

If we need a safehouse in pitneybank, the hotel and warehouse north of the mall are perfect. People with free running can use the mall. People without it can use one of the two nearby police stations (within 4 spaces). They're currently empty so we can graffitti the place or maintain a VSB barricade level for easy access without attracting unwanted attention. Fuel cans can be found in the auto shops sout of giddings (usually VSB) and generators are already there (although we don't really need them unless we need to use radios). There's even a necrotech within 3 blocks.

The only problem is the lack of a hospital so anyone without free running won't be able to find FAKs easily.

[Zakama]

Krrth didn't you see the first post? read it over.

[Marek]

I'm about 3 suburbs away from Fort Creedy, I think. Somewhere in Kempsterbank.

[LordVader]

Kempsterbank is under heavy zed attack. My alt is holed up in the surviving NT to the west of the 'burb. All the hospitals have been ransacked.

[Marek]

Oh dear :smalleek: ... i'm currently holed up in an entry point, since I don't have free-running, so I don't know how long it'll last. As soon as I get at least 25 AP, i'll be moving out for a safer suburb.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Well are we still meeting in the Junkyard. If so what junkyard. Coordinates please.

[blackout]

I'm low on AP and in the Fort Creedy armory scrounging up gear. Won't be able to make it to the rendezvous.

[LordVader]

Oh dear :smalleek: ... i'm currently holed up in an entry point, since I don't have free-running, so I don't know how long it'll last. As soon as I get at least 25 AP, i'll be moving out for a safer suburb.

Save up 50. Give me location and I'll send my alt to help you. Also, Blackout, the junkyard is literally 2 squares away from the armory.:smalltongue:

[Kojiro Kakita]

I am at the Junkyard. However, it seems someone has Barricaded the gateway. Can't get into creedy

[LordVader]

>_<
People do that on purpose. Search the junkyard for a crowbar, that works best for decading.
I'll get right on that as well.

Actually, you're probably inside the junkyard. You can't Free Run into the gatehouse, you have to leave the junkyard first.

[Kojiro Kakita]

Don't have free run. Seems like someone did it on accident. I moved back to the gateway and its open.

[LordVader]

5 Zeds Outside The Junkyard! All Playgrounders Engage! Weapons Free!

[LordVader]

AP'd out in the Gatehouse, all my shotguns missed. >_<
Have to pick up some more FAKs now. Also, whoever controls Steve Harvey, the zeds are ripping down the Gatehouse cades, and there's one outside the armory as well.

[starwoof]

Oh joy... well I ran out of ammo so Ill be up at Giddings for a day or two to stock up, so I don't think I'll be able to help. The Creedy folks are pretty competant.

I think I'll switch up my cricket bat for a fire axe. :smallcool:

[LordVader]

They literally have 600 survivors there, they'll be fine. Until I get Shopping, which I'm going to next, I have to search in Creedy, unfortunately.

[starwoof]

It amazed me how hard it was to find stuff in Creedy. Im a mall rat, so Im used to the luxury of finding something with almost every search. Shopping is... god.

[LordVader]

Almost every search? ...:smalleek:


:thog: lordvader want Shopping and Bargain Hunting, even if it mean waiting longer for Shotgun Training.

[heretic]

Malls are so nice. You can blast a PKer, CRer or someone you don't like and then replenish your ammo all without running out of AP.

I just realized I rarely kill zombies anymore. I only do it if they're indoors in high numbers and usually if that happens, I'm already dead.

[Marek]

My safehouse was compromised, so I made a run for another suburb. I made it into Wray Heights, but due to overcading i'm stranded outside of the Colborne Cinema.

[Studoku]

Almost every search? ...:smalleek:

5 AP of searching yielded 3 generators and a flare gun. This happened because I was looking for a spray can. I had to drop a generator though:smallannoyed:.

[Gaelbert]

I shambled my way over to the cemetary at 81, 45 in Pitneybank. A revive would be much appreciated. My profile, so you can recognize me. (http://www.urbandead.com/profile.cgi?id=969983)
