@transistor orang doge for visiblity, might be worth posting the tspoween games in announcements as well? I feel like it'll get lost buried in the event channel
Also, we're not spacing Z-Day, are we?
cuz, uh
https://www.nationstates.net/page=news/2...index.html
24 hours left ?
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
The way I see it that's an on-site event
I pinged the LC about it several days ago
I have been operating under the assumption since it's an on-site event it's an LC thing and accordingly not been putting anything together on it. Normally, N-Day we coordinate more because it also includes FA and Discord servers are essential for off-site coordination
that said, I've followed up in swan-lake to see if we can help them in any way
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
It's usually been a MoRA thing
We have a Discord channel and role for it etc.
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Ah. Are there any people with experience coordinating Z-Day who we can talk to about it?
I haven't been very involved with Z-Day before and this will be Tisha's first Z-Day (and I believe she may have said she'll be on LOA), not sure what doge's experience levels are?
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
Seraph, though I doubt he has the time
Aggie's busy in TRR
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Drystar has been talking about it in minion-plaza as well
I can reach out to Seraph although I expect he'll be rather busy
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
I don't actually know who owns this nation
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=tsp_...ponse_team
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Last year it looks like you speculated Seraph or Kris, I can ask them
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Ok, I got some stuff from Seraph I can parse through later. @Tishers ?☢ [Nyxonia] am I correct in recalling you're on LOA this weekend?
Neither Kris or Seraph own that nation :merf:
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
Then it's probably aggie
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Yep, that DM is sent
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Aga doesn't have it either :shrug~1:
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
@Angel of the Cure doge isn't online - any issue with me making an actual festival forum for tspoween?
actually, I'll just use my discretion as forum admin to do so ?
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
it's fine with me
after this event, we can talk a bit about how to do bells and whistles, setting things up in advance, and event promotion
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
This also explains why there has been 0 activity on the forumside, because they were posted in the executive offices rather than
where they need to go
(i.e. celebration pavillion for the tspoween stuff, and the LB&G for the forum fridays)
transistor orang doge — 10/29/2021
i participated in Z-Day in 2019 and 2020 but I've never been on a regional planning side
Tishers ?☢ [Nyxonia] — 10/29/2021
We were supposed to go camping on Z-day but it is raining and we will probably stay in. For domestic happiness I will not be able to dedicate large amounts of time to Z day.
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
That’s quite alright Tisha, no worries
Cureious Observations — 10/29/2021
RL > NS
Angel of the Cure — 10/29/2021
Just for my curiosity, why is this an MoRA/MoC thing traditionally? If we have a game-side government, administering a game-side event seems like the kind of thing they do.
Cureious Observations — 10/30/2021
I suppose it predates the LC
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
It started being an annual event in 2013, and LC was formed 2015.
But also I presume the MoRA doing gameside events at all predates the LC and so the LC at least afaik hasn't really done that often.
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Ah, I see.
Ok, I’ll do the best I can throwing this together. Sorry, just irritated because I thought about it and thought there was no way it was the Cabinet’s responsibility at all, only to learn it is.
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
silly hs, thinking the lc does activities apart from 1) moderating 2) elections 3) making law about moderating and elections Tounge
anything particular you need help with? amerion seems enthusiastic so maybe good for co-ordinating gameside stuff with?
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
He’s going to be busy most of the day, he’s mostly doing graphics
Two biggest things I need materials prep wise are 1) an info dispatch (or finding one we already wrote), and 2) a regional TG to send at go time
Then, during the event I’ll need event leaders since I won’t be available for very much due to RL stuff
Obviously it’s also quite difficult to find event leaders last minute!
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
i'll try and find an info dispatch, i'm 99% sure we had one a few years back
but i actually really hate z day so i would rather become a zombie myself than spend a day leading it >_>
have we already decided if we are embrace/cure/kill? i assume cure
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Relatable!
Cure is what we have “decided”
Decided may be a strong term here
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1274044
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Ok, we can post a modified version of that Dispatch on someone’s personal nation since we can’t find who has that nation (see above conversation)
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
i suspect CS or Jay, i've contacted them also
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Ok, could be it
Either way, we may as well just post a fresh dispatch
I can work on updating that or the TG if you do the other?
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
i'll start on the dispatch
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
OK, thank you very much!!!
If you need updated headers/footers that don't contain out of date links and/or want it to look extra pretty (which I consider totally optional at this stage of the game) Amerion has offered the following template: https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1613585
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
https://www.nationstates.net/page=dispatch/id=1613598
significantly streamlined, removed stuff about co-ordinators and emphasized a kind of mutual aid vibe, simplified explanations etc
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Ok, I'll try to do mine after update
Cureious Observations — 10/30/2021
I'll set up the Z-Day channel
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
thanks Roavin
Cureious Observations — 10/30/2021
Channel zday is there. It includes the role @ZDAY RESPONSE TEAM that can be assigned by any senior mod
that role will be shown as BRIGHT FUCKING RED and have ping+pin powers in that channel
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
You haven't turned on posting yet
transistor orang doge — 10/30/2021
i cant post there
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Would you like me to repost this hosted on my nation? Or do you want to maintain it?
Cureious Observations — 10/30/2021
Fixed, should be able to post now
Fallen Angel — 10/30/2021
id prefer it on somehthing official
i talked to jay, he wrote the dispatch + has the password for that nation if you want to use it @Angel of the Cure
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
Ah, thank you! I'll talk to Jay in a minute

Z-Day Discussion Thread with LC Wrote:Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
I can talk to them
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
Conny

https://www.nationstates.net/nation=todd..._the_gypsy
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=bismuth
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=sandaoguo
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
Copy them?
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
yeah
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
Like put them in the chat after you?
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
hold please
maybe we can have peeps add a reaction per nation for ones they areworking on
so they can see who is working on what and where to join?
what do you think
it seems it is legit just you and me right now
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
This is true
you post targets in the discord
i'll throw that list to the rmb
I can't bestow roles on people tho
it'd be nice to have a kill team in the wings tho
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
i don't really understand the list mate
it hasn't changed and I don't get it
which is making me mad
i don't like when i don't understand things
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
Just search most zombies in the census page
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
but that is how it always is withnumbers
I know that
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
don't look at HS's list
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
but like the numbers don't make sense
the one pinned here?
that's the one i have been working off of
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
oh you're right i see
The zombies census list doesn't update
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
once and hour i think
which is ugh but i get it
does it make sense to you?
beucase if so - have at the list and i'll RMB post as you post here
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
That list seems to be the same
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
Dry can't do it as he isn't avaliabe
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
That's all right
let's just look for high zombie nations using whatever resources we got
and post them
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021

Okie - i will post the list to the RMB and add the jerk to it too
do we have peeps killing?
should we?
we should right/
What is the number we are looking for them to be under?
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
more people seem to be switching to making zombies
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=kashubia
KILL THEM
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=staunca
THEM TOO
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
Penguin, just cause people have the brain option doesn't mean they're exporters
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
oh
i hate this damn game
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
If they get too many zombies, they automatically switch to that
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
oh
then CURE THEM!
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
But they can be restored to curers if we hit them enough
By exporters, i mean people actually sending zombies to other countries
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
okie i will make a new list
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=kashubia

before we move on?
Concrete Cure — 10/30/2021
Probably a billion
maybe a little more
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021

this is got to be the twist
like
it has to be
it's been 5 hours now so far i think
dude
i don
t think we are going to be ableto keep up like this
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
I don't either
But I'm not sure how to make things more sustainable - also sorry for being out for a few hours
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
you're fine mate ?
it is legit just us 3
Trisha is on her own which is awesome
but she is leavign soon
and i don't understand the damn math
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
I don't either
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
i don't know what to do
but i WILL be opening my third mike's in 30 mins
so that is a plan
okie we need a plan beofre we keep tlaking to the childrne
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
lmao
I don't know how the plan would change tbqh. I think the current plan isthe best we have even if it's unappealing to us
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
keep the cure
i am fine with that unless they have a better plan
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
are you suggesting full switch to kill?
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
i mean maybe?
i don't know
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
only reason to switch to kill is that it has higher power
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
i am always dead by now
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
but honestly i'd rather go down failing on cures
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
should we ask the children or just CURE?
do we trust them?
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
not to mention it would take a while for our TZES super weapons to get ready and given the max-driven spike we may not have time for it to be ready
I think we should just cure
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
i don't think i do
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
do we ever?
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
okie #TSP4CURES
no but i am trying to be nicer
HS - can you make the lists again?
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
assuming my computer doesn't shit a brick, yeah
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
lol danke mate
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
i think our stats are good so far
but i don't know if i can keep this up for like 30 more hour
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
oh goodness heavens no
I doubt we can keep this up 3 more hours
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
the children have been very engaged so far
Angel of the Cure — 10/30/2021
And that's the goal! For me at least
curing a feeder successfully is impossible
I feel like if we had started planning a month ago and gotten people super worked up about it maybe we could've done it
but it's too difficult
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
we need to make this and Nday a priority for the like Month before them
but the issue is elections fall around then and no one knows who is going to win and you're like the only cabinet member (out side of Trish) doing anything
Witchy legit stated he wasn't logging in until 11/1
#Penguin4CURES — 10/30/2021
when do we maybe give up?
Supreme Leader — 10/30/2021
Never!
I just spent half an hour trying to cure this small nation and someone keeps hitting me with their weapons
I'm continuing with it out of spite
#Penguin4CURES — Yesterday at 9:54 AM
do we have a new list?
how is this wave working?
transistor orang doge — Yesterday at 11:07 AM
hmm https://www.nationstates.net/nation=soem
should we get on this
or no because not cure producing
#Penguin4CURES — Yesterday at 1:57 PM
and he has a point
we didn't eject ANYONE yester
and today we have done 2
with no explination
what is out policy going ot be now?
eject brain peeps?
we need a unified front on this
#Penguin4CURES — Yesterday at 3:31 PM
i'm not kicking ANYONE anymire
i am tired of the TGs and shit
@Concrete Cure dont ask me anymore
Concrete Cure — Yesterday at 3:32 PM
I don't know why they're telegramming you
They're hording and exporting
seems pretty obvious
#Penguin4CURES — Yesterday at 3:33 PM
we didn't do it yesterday and apparently it wasn't told to them
Concrete Cure — Yesterday at 3:33 PM
We changed tactics once we started losing ground
They shouldn't be hording
just ignore the tgs
they know what they did
Angel of the Cure — Today at 11:02 AM
Sorry that I was busy for the second half of the event. Thank you all for stepping up to help out. It seems a lot of our institutional knowledge about how to run this event got lost with the MoRA split and the general slowdown in the domestic Ministries. Hopefully we can do better next year.
