[B] LET'S CURE THOSE ZOMBIES [/B]

Chacapoya, Typica, Portmanteau, The Blue Fire

URGENT COMMUNCATIONS FROM THE OFFICE OF OPERATIONS

The zombies are here! But no need to fear, as our scientists are ready to cure this menace! Just go to your zombie control at https://www.nationstates.net/page=zombie_control and select "Research a Cure." After which, feel free to join the discord for further orders!

Just remember, nations choosing to exterminate or embrace the zombies will be ejected until the end of the event.

Oh boy here we go

Let's cure those zombies!

Chacapoya, Talvezout, Typica, Araine, Tiralta, Morrigan, The Blue Fire

Yeesh, the zombies really don't screw around. Literally a minute into Z-Day and there's 32 million zombies. I hope somebody chucks a cure missile to my island soon.

Chacapoya, Talvezout, Typica, Tiralta, The Blue Fire

We should have missiles in the next 30 minutes and I promise there's one with your nation's name on it!

Talvezout, Typica, Tiralta, Agudo Island

Update on evacuation situation for Ban Oldern: Hordes of zombies have been reported, seemingly originating from Ban Vermelhan, a coalition of naturist colonies. Survivor camps are now being moved onto a temporary ship convoy until the Vermelhi threat is neutralized.

Evacuees will still be allowed to take certain non-clothing and non-perishable belongings (i.e. books, stuffed animals, communication devices) but many items will be taken up and returned to evacuees after the crisis to avoid clutter on the ships and all allowed items must be screened in addition to the people themselves.

Talvezout, Typica, Tiralta, The Blue Fire

Hey folkens! Please do not fire cure missiles at nations currently firing them. It puts them on a 2 minute cooldown.

Tiralta, The Blue Fire

Oh no, I guess it’s warrior cats vs. zombies after all. Shouldn’t be an issue considering the entire time I was reading the series it was warrior cats vs. ghosts, they should be used to fighting supernatural creatures.

How unfortunate that turning everyone into animals didn’t prevent the apocalypse.

I think the problem is I didn't turn everyone into an animal. Those that did transformed seem to not be consumable by the zombie horde.

Unfortunately, the transformant needs to be willing for the prismaglyph to work, so we're out of luck on turning the entire world into bobcats to stop the apocalypse.

(For those wondering how I know this, let's just say I tried to fully animify the Refugi Concilate and it did not work.)

Typica, Tiralta, The Blue Fire

I've already got Immunizer missiles ready to go. Who's got Sterilizers ready? The number of techanistas to ghoulanistas on my island is getting worryingly lower.

Typica, Tiralta

Drastic change in evacuation plans: Central Ban Oldern has been overrun by Zombies. One final evacuation run in those areas is underway, but many will unfortunately be left behind. Please, if you could, help get the number of zombies down over here, I'll be going to sleep soon and won't be able to complain about cooldowns

Typica, Tiralta

So:

IC, do y'all incorporate zombies or nah into the Nation Lore

Talvezout wrote:So:

I figure that if I did incorporate it into the lore a) they wouldn't be zombies but probably a wereanimal epidemic and b) I would want to embrace it rather than cure it so that would be reflected in the lore.

I've decided that its just gonna be an epidemic, and just flatten all zombie events into one major epidemic

also wereanimals huh? interesting

if you're looking for interesting then my RMB character (temporarily out of service and replaced by the narrator-turned-newsboy that reads out the events of Ban Oldern) is probably the most interesting part.

So I have the country itself, headed by a Duchess, which is one character (although I'm rarely IC there), then I have an RMB character who is meant to be more of a silly goofy guy (which obviously does not fit with a zombie apocalypse) except he also does horrible experiments on himself because of desire for knowledge, and then I've got the Attenborough newsboy (my current character) who regularly jumps through the window in the 4th wall and you never really know whether what he says is in-universe or not because if you could determine with absolute certainty was was IU and what was OOU you would get the worst whiplash known to man within seconds

this is completely in character for me btw

I used the aftermath of N-Day as a way to introduce a few communities and places in my nation, like the Santa Librada Mountain Range and the underbridge community of Calle Puente. I'm thinking I might do something similar here, but also introduce a community of partially cured sapient zombies.

This is the public announcement regarding my leader’s sudden change of species:

I picked curing the zombies , but I can only infect other nations. Does anyone else have this bug

It's probably because everyone starts out getting automatically infected, given the pandemic nature of all this. So, until you reach your cure superweapon, all you have available to you is what your horde researched before you switched to cure.

Um what does horde Do?

Adorus wrote:Um what does horde Do?

Increases the infection of another nation. I had hoped when I was cure missiling you earlier, it would have dropped your infection numbers low enough to where you'd stop having the horde option. Apparently I was wrong. I was going to cure the rest of your zombies, but unfortunately I'm now being hit by someone else

Oh, thanks for trying though.

Adorus wrote:Oh, thanks for trying though.

I got a few more missiles in there for you :) you should be low enough that you can continue researching effectively but not be in danger of hordes.

Tiralta, Adorus

Over half my population is zombified, I may need a few cure missiles sent my way

Edit: Undead back to acceptable levels, continuing cure research

Edit 2: And I’m back to needing cures lol

Well I am at 89 percent on my immune missile things .

Help, my population is incredibly zombified and now we even have bursted hordes

Edit: Thanks, population back to stable levels for the foreseeable future

Need a cure, please!

I'm taking some time off if people want to clean my nation of zombies.

Thanks for all the curing! I've just woken up so will throw some missiles your way soon!

Scandinavia And Colorado

I’m going to get completely wiped out soon with how my infection rate is going. I don’t think my population is big enough yet to have a ton of zombies and still be effective at curing.

And I just noticed a bunch of my people died randomly? I don’t remember that being a thing during previous Zdays. Did they all just drop dead or am I to assume it was surviving citizens defending themselves?

Ah, makes sense. I didn’t know that. I don’t think I’ve had this big of a zombie problem before, I didn’t have any die last time.

Hey, also gonna log off for a bit, so folks can totes clear me if they'd like.

Here's a list of sleeping folks to clear out and keep clear. If they can wake up in a few hours with Mark V cure missiles they could be heavy hitters for helping the rest of us.

If y'all like this post you'll be added to the next batch of actives to cure. Once cured I am focusing a puppet on making sure everyone stays cured so please hang in there!

We are batching active folks in order to spread out the effects of the 2 minute cooldown when you're hit with a cure missile so don't panic <3

Continue hitting the current list and we will get your living outta there soon!

Bejeweled Potatoes, New Atlantic, Estebere, The Blue Fire, New Cinder, Agudo Island, Ban Oldern

Our next batch of three is:

Ban Oldern

Bejeweled Potatoes

Never mind: There's more dead than zombies, and more healed than zombies. There's just a bunch of dead people. We can't do anything about those. :(

Silliy

On a far-flung atoll in the middle of the Pacific, a handful of bedraggled survivors cling to the branches of palm trees. Below, hordes of zombies sway and moan amongst the scattered bones of the dead. Above, splashes of color flutter, here and there, among the canopy of fronds, the tropical birds of the island picking at the fruits and nuts and appearing altogether unfazed by any developments. One of the survivors think they spot a Blue lorikeet in an adjacent tree, recalling its conspicuous absence from their birding journal. They watch it pick at a few insects swarming over a leaf, then fly off deeper into the rainforest.

There's no more zombies left! A lot of people died along the way, but there's no zombies left! Also, no, I did not pick the option that said kill the zombies. I chose to research a cure. The people that died didn't die due to harsh government policies. We are going to build a memorial for them after we're done rebuilding the country.

Portmanteau, Tiralta

Final count:

Survivors: 90,960,581

Dead:99,102,719

Survival Rate: 47.89%

We will begin building a memorial for all of those who did not make it, which is a large percentage of the population. We will have a large team of people working around the clock: identifying bodies, caring for survivors, taking care of wills, rebuilding, memorial building, taking care of the bodies according to their will, etc. It will take a long time to recover, and Biblioteca may never be the same, but we survived. Thank you to those who helped us along the way. Let me know if there's any way I can help. I have cure missiles.
