GAME RELEVANT NEWS FOR ALL PLAYERS PLEASE READ!!!!!!

Some loopholes have been brought to our attention and we have created new rules in order to protect the integrity of the game. The new rules are as follows: • Personal Vehicles safe zones rules do not apply during mission hours. • The safe zone around vehicles will only apply to the number of people who can legally fit in the car. • Vehicles must be parked in parking lots which are recognized by RIT. • Don’t be a dick and do anything that would be considered illegal in the current location of you. • Zombies in safe zones are safe from witches but not from humans. It has also been brought to our attention that Freshens in Institute Hall (Near Pi Quad) has an alarm in it as well that is triggered after hours. ALSO, don't run in front of cars. We have recieved several complains through public safety about players running across roads with oncoming traffic. Finally, and pretty importantly. Thank you for coming out tonight. We hope everyone is having fun and enjoying the game. Tiers are posted and hopefully will be going out at 2AM, closing at 6PM. Mid Day Mission will be located in Building 8 basement again at 12 NOON. We look forward to seeing you all tomorrow. With Love, The Admins

Any further people past 9pm that wish to play HvZ will be a zombie, there are no-exceptions to this. We will are taking no more human registrations after this time. There will be a Zombie registration on Monday 6-8pm in Xerox Auditorum in Engineering Building. This means you can not play as a human starting out, granted if Anti-virus' exist you may play as a human.

Week game start

As a previously asked question about the start of our week long game. This had been miss-spoken the game does in fact begin at 9pm / 21:00 EST sunday.

The response was such because it was kept in the dark because it was a change from the normal way to start the week long game.

Apologies for any confusion this has caused.

[hvzrit]

RIT Documentary

This video really shows the amount of time moderators dedicate to running Humans Versus Zombies. It is a lot of work! For all those who play, please remember how much work went into the game from behind the scenes. 

RIT is famous for having a huge amount of players, a crazy amount of work is required to keep those numbers in check and following the rules.

The rules listed for missions seem kind of confusing. Here is my current interpretation: There are two ways the humans can do the mission: "Danger" mode and "Safe" mode. In "Danger" mode, any zombifications are permanent. However, any humans who participate and survive get a reward. In "Safe" mode, any zombifications of humans participating in the mission get reversed at the end on the mission, but zombies who participate in the mission will get the reward. Is this accurate?

Yes this is accurate. We do it this way so we can get some human participation in the mid day missions. If humans were to irrevocably die during any/all mid-day missions less will participate. Mid-day missions are often tied to alternate side-plots or more commonly known as 'side quests'. Usually enough we make the judgement of certain death or safety before the mid-day mission starts.In addition to this if it is a "Safe mode" mid-day mission any zombies have to know of this and as the mid-day mission is held outside there is a zone that governs the safety of the humans participating. If a human were to leave the zone they would no longer be protected.

If a zombie barges a human(s) out of the safe zone the fate of involved parties is under discretion of admin or mod presiding over the event and or mission.
