The Hot Laziness:
Oh man, burn.  But then, that's what happens in your first town I guess!  Totally sub-optimal play is the only thing we can expect, and that's cool with me.  I'm just glad I managed to get the rest of you guys to tent up.  But, it's probably a little late for me by now, I blew my APs before I researched that far.  If I die, remember to dump my body outside!

I'm at work, and I will be at work during every single non-weekend midnight (and maybe some weekend ones too).  I'll usually be around from oh, 3AM to 10AM game-time, or somewhere in the middle of that at least.

I'm going to guesstimate and say that our town defenses are up to...what, maybe 12 by now with a lot of tents?  We'll probably have 10-20 zombies inside, which means that at least half of us won't get harassed.  Those with tents have pretty good odds, though from my understanding you'll need some booze in the morning to take the edge off.  Yes we'll be a little hosed, yes we will lose some people (especially that poor guy who wandered over to that house to the east and got trapped in a horde), but the rest of you will live on I'm sure.

How long do they usually take to respond to e-mails? I'm pretty much going to be stewing in anxiety/paranoia until then. 

[Denzi]

Like I said, I e-mailed them, looked away, and maybe 10 minutes later I had a reply saying 'try this, and if that doesn't work tell me'

Then again that was like... three or four hours ago, I might of caught tech support as they were walking out the door :\

The Hot Laziness:
I don't know where did you get that 12 number? Our town defense is 21 now (but we have two defence items in the bank, so someone may chicken out and steal them for their home). Also we have an admin who has +2 defense to his home and someone who has wasted a plank and got 3 defense shack.

So if it's a median (27,5) then we get only 7,5 zombies inside, which means not more than 8 deaths in the worst scenario. Let's hope that it's a median or less .

Oh also dont' forget that idiot PlayerName who went outside and suicided, he'll be another possible victim because he difinitely returns this night.

P.S. I would actually suggest you to take one defense item, Sowelu. Yeah it means two more zombies come in, but if they spread out then we should take less damage.

[Sowelu]

Oh...And for you beta key people:  When I signed up, I just...signed up.  No special key, no referral, just name email password done and it worked.

Okay, I pulled that number out of nowhere based on where we were, early in the game-morning.  I had no idea you were advancing so quickly!  Very nice, guys.

That's what we did yesterday.

Those accounts got deleted.

[Deon]

I've got my beta key now... My main account used no key (I just tried and it magically worked), what should I do now? I like my village and I want to play there... should I make another account using the beta key? My wife wants to play too now btw, do you know if they allow family members to play from one computer?

[Sowelu]

My wife wants to play too now btw, do you know if they allow family members to play from one computer?

I think I saw something about that in the FAQ, and I recall it being positive; general procedure in this case is to drop a message to an admin as a courtesy heads-up though.

[Tres_Huevos]

Is there any way to get beta keys at this point? I've looked around the site, but nothing jumps out at me. Nor does registering without one seem to work, anymore.

Yea... I'm still deleted..   You lucky sod.

[Sowelu]

Huh.  They're pretty hamhanded with this beta it sounds like.

[HailFire]

Yea... I'm still deleted..   You lucky sod.

I wouldn't call myself lucky yet- they still haven't responded to my e-mail. 

Then again, it's, what, 10:30 pm in France now? I wouldn't be surprised if the tech support team's out for the night, so I'll just check back later this evening (and e-mail them again if I don't get a response by tomorrow).

[Deon]

Okay, the attack is happening. Just when I was typing the last message. Well, if I cannot leave it there, I will leave it here:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A minute of silence for those out in the wasteland...

I hope you hear this radio translation. Don't hang your head. You know you're dead, and it looks like nobody in the town has any remaining strength to go and get you.

Just remember: under this sun many people die, but our souls survive. Let's hope that after you're no longer humans, your souls find a better place to live.

I am sure we will see you again, maybe even tonight. Please try not to eat too much, or you will become fat.

Amen.

[Sowelu]

Post the attack results when they come up?

[Deon]

Do you have no means to check the game site from the work?

Sure I will post the results.

RIght now:

Hordes of zombies are attacking your town ! They are everywhere, you hear citizens screaming in the night, the attackers clashing noisily against sheet metal... Hungry groaning from the starving masses... What's going to become of it ?!

Are you going to die2nite?!
