Zombie Den 2014 + Harvesting Achievements

February 16, 2014 7:59 pm

[item=The Everyday Struggles: Zombies]

Zombies will be pleased to know that Skitters is back with some new items! I wonder if there will be a way for the rest of yous to buy his items...

There are also achievements for harvesting and being harvested. They will have titles soon, and I'll post when they do with the link to get the retroactively if you already have the achievement. Note: if you got harvested before the achievements were added, it may take a few hours for them to show up for you. Don't make tickets just yet! If it turns out that you'll need to make them, I'll post on the news letting you know :)

Eat up.

In the first year people got infected through random events (they "caught colds") and through biting (once you got to stage... 4 ?). I know I got Boobitis through a random event before we even knew what the Hell was going on, ahahaha... NOT through kissing.

I don't think I posted at all in 2009 and I still got infected. I think I got it from reading a book (newspaper, technically) that was a free gift given out during the end of the event when everything was winding down. Not that I have an opinion on the debate going on, I just don't think posting was a requirement to getting infected in 09.

*the items aren't going anywhere. xD

(hit enter too quick!)

Also, thanks for the year division on Skitters shop! Its SO MUCH BETTER now in tabs ^_^

;____________; OH MY GOOD THE NEW ZOMBIE DEN THINGS ARE SO AWESOME /sob NEED ALL THE THINGS AAahhhh

...this being said... guys. Humans will most likely be allowed in the Den at some point... and if they aren't, there is no such thing as "the rich zombies", there is and there has always been zombies willing to shop for you in the Den for base price :/ Especially now that the shopping interval has been lifted. So definitely don't fret over that, the items aren

Considering how insensitive people are, resorting to name calling when people voice a different opinion...considering the fact that I feel like I'm being punished for my personal convictions...and considering other passive-agressive/disrespectful behaviour I've seen around the forums and in news posts and elsewhere on site since this event began...I'll be back in March. So long, I feel sick over this kind of treatment.

February 17, 2014, 12:15 am by

i read only half the comments or so so maybe this is fixed but skitters is telling me i ave 0sp too i can buy stuff though so its all cool

February 16, 2014, 11:59 pm by

I should clarify that and say that there was no kissing quick link back then. So the only way to kiss someone was to find one of their posts in the Epidemic forum.

February 16, 2014, 11:58 pm by

Achievement page says all my organs have been taken but I haven't gotten the main achievement yet. Hope it's fixed soon.

February 16, 2014, 11:57 pm by

For everyone saying you had to actively work really hard at not getting infected the first year, all you had to do was not post in the Epidemic forum. There was no kissing link back then, and the Kissing link only appeared in that forum. So it wasn't like, an impossible task or anything XD

February 16, 2014, 11:55 pm by

I'm still missing four achievements and now that I'm completely harvested, the Organ Donor meta-achievement won't trigger because of it. Would really like for this to be fixed, as I'm not alone in this. I'm having a great time with this event, but the glitches and errors are really making a dent in my fun :/

February 16, 2014, 11:06 pm by

I agree that the time should be shortened. With the lag and 502's, this is going to take forever.

February 16, 2014, 10:46 pm by

I love this idea, but don't we get an alert if out organs were harvested?

February 16, 2014, 9:46 pm by

love the new idea, but just wish the time between harvesting is just sooooo long. any chance you could shorten it? especially since the pandemic never lasts long enough

February 16, 2014, 9:41 pm by

Wish there were alerts for kissing and harvesting like they had with trick or treat.

February 16, 2014, 9:01 pm by

I want in the Den again ;A; Pleaaaaaase? >A>

February 16, 2014, 8:52 pm by

ughhh I want that eyeliner ;~;

February 16, 2014, 8:44 pm by

love it <3 but I want in the den please :unheart:

February 16, 2014, 8:37 pm by

Some people might want to opt out because they're uncomfortable with the whole, you know, gore idea of it.

February 16, 2014, 8:37 pm by

So this is where the organs come into play?

no for getting infected you had to wear a mask and refresh the page until you got it

oh right 8) that was it heh, like i said, probably wrong haha

Quote

Also, why do you not want to participate anyway? We don&;t have events very often on site and cmon. First time getting to harvest other people&;s body parts? How is that not awesome

yes this 8D

i don't mind being gross, and man if it bothers you that much, throw a vanishing cream on your avatar until you have all the achievements then opt-out, and your avatar will go back to normal so if anyones squeamish but wants to participate, you can just do that

February 16, 2014, 8:31 pm by

It's fixed! Thanks! ^^

February 16, 2014, 8:30 pm by

omg thank you guys, this is gonna be awesome

February 16, 2014, 8:29 pm by

Ohhh I'm in love with the bloodied hankerchiefs â™¥ Another fantastic set of things from good ol' Skitters.

because you actually had to actively avoid getting infected when biting was a thing, there was no option to just turn it off/opt out of participating like there is for this v:

The 2010 one you just had to not wear a zombie mask

Like, I really don't care or for an opting out achievement but i can see why someone would wonder if there would be one

February 16, 2014, 8:24 pm by

So wanting in....

Keeps knocking on skitters door

yeah but for that you had to actively like try not to get infected didn&;t you? like didnt you automatically get infected if you went to shadowglen or darkside or whatever.
i know you had to rf but theres a chance you could have gotten it by visiting once

The first year that zombie diseases came out you had to actively try to not get infected, this is correct. The disease was spread by kissing, so you literally had to make sure nobody kissed you and you stayed the hell out of shadowglen. Pretty sure masks werent a thing until after this.'

For the longtime zombie achieves, you had to sacrifice having a nice avatar for upwards of a year, something a lot of people couldn't do, myself included, but there are still some first gen zombies out there.

What I'm saying is, these people are awesome and put effort into those achievements. Asking for an achieve for sitting on your ass and doing nothing the whole event is dumb and pointless. Also, why do you not want to participate anyway? We don't have events very often on site and cmon. First time getting to harvest other people's body parts? How is that not awesome

February 16, 2014, 8:21 pm by

Woohoo, awesome! Thank you. :D

February 16, 2014, 8:20 pm by

And we are working again :)

February 16, 2014, 8:20 pm by

February 16, 2014, 8:19 pm by

February 16, 2014, 8:19 pm by

The masks don't work anymore dear, that was back when there wasn't a cure for zombieness yet c:

February 16, 2014, 8:19 pm by

I cannot harvest, I'm just getting blank. :c Please fix it? cool new items ^-^

February 16, 2014, 8:19 pm by

"eat up", hmm? intriguing....uwu

February 16, 2014, 8:17 pm by

What masks do you have to wear to get infected?

February 16, 2014, 8:17 pm by

err plushie, my bad :)

February 16, 2014, 8:16 pm by

there were achievements for NOT getting infected in two years when getting infected was a thing but ok

February 16, 2014, 8:16 pm by

Ahh... can't harvest anymore, just blank pages.

And am with not allowing non-zombies freepass (conditional access is ok though). Zombies had to work hard to be a zombie and then have to keep being a zombie all year long even if it kind of ruin most avatar looks and miss out some of the achievement (a cheer to those that managed to keep save too)... not doing anything much and have access to an exclusive shop? It's like saying that those that did not even participate in the Island-Pirate plot should receive the same "benefits"!
