For all of you who enjoyed the zombie game before but bemoaned the fact that the game ended too soon because it was so easy to die, there is a new beta version of the game for us to try. In this version, the dead can re-spawn, so the game should go on longer.
As it IS a beta version, we expect bugs. Please report any of them you find here, and they'll get passed on to the developer.
ABOUT THE GAME
For those who are new to the board, this is how it works. When a game starts, I assign several people to be zombies, a few others to be scientists, and still others to be soldiers. If you aren't one of those, you must wait until a zombie bites you before you can play.
ZOMBIES: Zombies bite others. Bites can:
* infect another (turn them into a zombie as well)
* kill the victim
* give the victim immunity
SCIENTISTS: Scientists can cure zombies. The "cure" action can:
* cure the zombie
* kill the zombie
SOLDIERS: Soldiers can shoot others (zombie or not). Shooting can:
* kill the victim
* infect the victim
ARE YOU DEAD? If so, someone can "re-spawn" you. This means you:
* could be cured
* could be zombiefied again
How often the actions listed above can be carried out varies. If we have a lot of zombies, I may change things to where they can infect fewer people, less often, while increasing how often and how many actions soldiers and scientists can take. It's never really the same game twice!

Rut Roh.
Do we have to be logged in to play or can people zombie us when we are off-line?
I work weekends.  |

I've already infected two people. Thanks Moon, the zombie game was fun the first time around, but I never get trusted with a gun unfortunately... |

Yes, you can be zombie-fied when you're offline.
For those who are new to the board, we have some members who are zombies. They can infect others. Sometimes, that infects the person they bite, and other times it kills them. sometimes it has no effect at all.
others are scientists. they can cure zombies, but sometimes the "cure" kills, and other times it has no effect.
still others are soldiers. sometimes they kill, sometimes they miss, sometimes they infect.
and now, the dead can be re-animated, only sometimes it doesn't work or they turn into a zombie.

But you're still not as fleet of foot as me. As soon as I saw there was a new game underway, I infected you before you even saw me coming. I've gotten 2 more victims since then.

Someone who's currently infected has to bite you so that you become infected first. then you can bite others...

You should have a CURE button show up at the bottom of your target's mini-profile. Just click on the CURE button and see what happens. You're welcome to cure me or kill me to see how it works.  |

I think the action buttons have a time factor before they'll be usable. Don't know what it is, or what triggers it, though. |

geenamercile, right now, you have to wait for an infected person to bite you. once you're infected, you can begin to infect others.
