Hey HvZ players!

The officers are all recovered from the one-week and we hope you players are too. If you still have a bandanna from the weeklong please drop it off at one of the one-night missions or at the open officer meetings on Sunday (1pm in Commons 318!). If you don’t, we know who you are, and we will find you. If you lost your bandanna, you owe us $10. Bandannas not returned or otherwise compensated for will be considered stolen as per the waiver you signed when we gave it to you.

Also, on a serious note, use of excessive force is not okay. The following has now been implemented: 

Use of excessive force is now defined as knocking someone off of their feet. This is regardless of location of incident.  

Once someone is knocked off their feet, the game pauses. Both players and anyone who saw the incident NEED to stick around. This is very important because;

If any involved party leaves, guilt is assumed, and a warning is given.

These changes are meant to keep players both Human and Zombies safe and having fun. They mean that Zombies will take a little more care to only tag, and Humans can no longer make excessive force claims well after the fact. These are preemptive measures, and they will hopefully not be needed.

Upcoming Events:

Monday, October 15th is a one-night mission starting at 7pm in Lecture Hall 4.

Thursday, October 18th is a one-night mission starting at 7pm in Lecture Hall 1.

Please note, for the missions, we ask that you be sure to sign in for the one nights. If you come in late, that’s fine but please check-in before going out to play to make sure you are aware of any special rules that may be in play. Also keep in mind, that if you miss more than half the briefing, you must play zombie.

Zombie Prom is coming up on November 3rd! It’s at 7pm in the UC Ballroom. It’s our annual Halloween party with an optional mission! This year, the theme is Nightmare Before Christmas and it’s being DJ’d by the Phantom Gentlemen! We just got all the stuff approved (minus the cotton candy machine, but Katy’ll be okay). It’s shaping up to be pretty fun!  Any requests for music can be submitted here.

As always, check the website for dates and times for events. Shameless plug for the code monkey!
