Die2Nite Mega Town - Season II - Town Starts May 29th

We are in Sand of the damned

IRC Info:

Die2Nite is a cooperative zombie survival game in which 40 people form a town together, gather items, eat, drink, do drugs, build defenses, and try to live together for as long as possible against an ever-increasing zombie horde. Die2Nite is a relatively simple game based on coordination and luck, so changes are likely to be a good thing and will spice things up. Towns typically last around two weeks, but the past two Bay 12 towns have lasted 25 days each. The record for longest lasting town is 32 days. In the past we shared the record for the longest lasting town, and we currently hold the record for the largest Day 24 attack ever survived.

The game is not especially time consuming, however, the most dedicated members who coordinate activities such as expeditions and zombie clearing, do tend to spend 1-2 hours in IRC right after the zombie attacks (at 5pm EDT) working things out. A member who reads the forums, understands the fundamentals of the game, and follows instructions, can be a valuable asset on as little as 10 minutes of play per day.

All past members of the Bay 12 coalition are welcome to join the town, and welcome to invite their friends. All Bay 12 forum posters are welcome to join the town as well. In all of our towns we have had brand new players become integral parts of the team.

Please sign-up in this thread and state whether or not you are a hero. Don't forget to tell your in-game nick so we can invite you to a coalition.

We plan to launch (join a town simultaneously) at approximately 30 minutes after the attack which is 5:30pm EDT on May 29th (= late Sunday - early Monday depending on your location). We will need one hero in each coalition to be available at that time, to jump.

Players:
Redfield (Hero)
beebeep (Hero)
JarofJam
Fikes
Wravburn

Grunden (Hero)
Endintears (Hero)
Merlon
Chairman
Halibut

Datgum (Hero)

I'll be glad to join in again. The previous town went quite well, and we might've broken some records if not for the tragically bad timing and some early deaths.

Kachajal (Hero)

Also, I started playing the game just at the beginning of our town, and managed to survive nearly to the end. It's not hard to get into, and the amount of fun to be had from it is disproportionate to the time you spend on it - so don't be daunted if you haven't played it before, and give it a try.

Wow, that's quite an early start. Do you think it'll be enough to gather enough people by that time ?
We can also explore the possibility of starting a mega-coalition with some other website, say, xkcd forum folks.

I haven't played since beta and apparently I have 37 hero days. Should I use some of them for this?

Sign me up as Fikes.

Well I thought that one week break would be enough, since there was no one who asked for longer break and some of us already waited this new town. If it turns out that we don't have enough people coming with us, we might have to change the starting date for later. Hopefully that won't be necessary.

So how does this work, since I haven't done it before.

I could also go hero if we need one, but I am inexperienced.

You join a coalition with a hero in it, who can be on at the correct time. When that time comes, all the coalition leaders join a town, dragging their fellows with them and resulting in a mostly B12 town. This thread is largely for coordinating who needs and can provide a coalition, as well as for tracking numbers; just say you're in and someone will get around to inviting you.

I'll join this time, in Datgum's coalition at the moment. Will contact other friends about it.
