I'm not sure we should be attacking zombies even if they do attack us.

The Nurglings aren't just a team playing against other teams.

Our point is to shatter survivor complacency. We're here to knock down barricades and attack harmanz.

True, but it is still worth adding the bad zombies to your contact list so that you can tell when they are standing next to you. Then the best option would be to move to a new square/target while hoping that one of the harmanz kills the bad zeds. That way we save our AP for harmanz without losing HP to the rogue zombies.

I hate zkers.

Pking makes sense. Humans kill each other normally. It happens in real life and it happens in zombie movies.

But zking should be taken out of the game. Zombies have a horde mentality. All pop culture portrayals of zombies agree on that.

We ain't standard pop culture zombies, LL. We have intelligence and free will. A game with the kind of zombies you're talking about doesn't need us. A computer program could do a much better job. I would argue that this is why so few people play zeds in UD. They try to act like movie zombies and find out very quickly that it is super boring. But they're not sure what else to be. I have tried to give us an alternative with the Nurglings, neither survivors in zombie suits nor boring, animalistic zombies. Rather, we have our own way -- barhah.

As for ZKers: these poor devils are just insane, and bit worse than your standard survivor at that. They are harmanz bored with living but not yet detached from the usual survivor neuroses.

Your memory is quite correct, Mad.

Whether the case of ZKers is psychologically different is quite interesting. Quislings seemed to identify as zombies as a defense mechanism under the assumption that being one of them means you cannot be hurt by them. The breakdown in that case is a matter of fear.

I think the breakdown ZKers face is a matter of boredom. In other words, they are simply tired of playing the survivor skills/abilities. They retain the same mindset of survivors (our team versus the zombie team) but they're using different weapons to make things more interesting.

It is important that we don't fall into similar thinking: we are not the "zombie team" which is equal and opposed to the "survivor team."

Since your last turn:

26.34 MHz: "Mitchem under attack by dozen plus Zurglings." (51 minutes ago)
26.34 MHz: "Ah, make that Nurglings...I suppose." (51 minutes ago)

The latest broadcast from the silly harmanz. At least one of them still thinks we are zerging.

It's just an insult at this point. We have pretty clearly demonstrated that (1) we do not zerge and (2) we discipline members who get out of line.

Our old friend and appetizer, Mick McManix, is hiding in Corless Bank.

You are inside Corless Bank. The vault lies open, its contents either looted or transferred. With the lights out, you can hardly see anything. The doors to the street have been left wide open. Also here is Mick McManix (54HP).

A portable generator has been set up here. It is out of fuel, and connected to a powered-down radio transmitter.

Gripping Mick McManix by the shoulders, you crush them for 3 damage. They drop to 54 HP.


He's the head of The Spanish Inquisition. Feel free to surprise him because no one expects anyone to eat The Spanish Inquisition.

He was gone by the time I got there... so I went back a tore away at the NE corner of Mitchem mall, down to VSB.

Should have been and could be. Seemed like folks wanted to pull the boards down at Mitchem instead so I went with it.

I wonder if the "Nurglings" attacking us are former KT? Didn't the Templars have a problem with players zerging under their group tag way back?

Athill is one SW of Gelasius. Nice canker spot when we can get the zombahz together. KT is raring for action, must be pretty boring without us tearing at stuff.

So funny how everyone wants to play a big bad survivor these days when there are so few undead around.

Doors to Club Izzard are wide open!

You are inside Club Izzard. Coloured spotlights highlight an empty stage, and distorted music echoes over the speakers. The doors to the street have been left wide open. Also here are Mick McManix (60HP), Henrietta Hoggs (60HP), Jacob Lann (55HP), niteshad (60HP), DoXBr (57HP) and Anja Arnheim (47HP).

So that's where ole Mick ran off to. How rude!



Automatically Appended Next Post:

Darn. A PKer shot Mick McManix before I could finish him. Then Anja slapped me with a newspaper before all of the harmanz bolted.

It's getting hard to eat a decent brain these days.

Since your last turn:

DoXBr shot you with a pistol for 4 damage. (8 hours and 58 minutes ago) (Now 1 north.) ...and again.
Anja Arnheim slapped you with a newspaper. (8 hours and 23 minutes ago) (Now 1 east.)
Henrietta Hoggs revivified a zombie. (7 hours and 27 minutes ago)
Pak40 killed Mick McManix with a pistol. (7 hours and 7 minutes ago)
A zombie dragged niteshad out into the street. (6 hours and 11 minutes ago)
A zombie dragged Jacob Lann out into the street. (6 hours and 5 minutes ago)

There is a human with 8 HP inside the dark confines of Club Izzard.

Someone kill him and ruin the place.

You are inside Gelasius General Hospital, its empty wards criss-crossed with snapped quarantine tape. The building has been extremely heavily barricaded.
