I'm all undressed and ready to get infected. Why does that not sound wrong? :sweat_smile:

Early afternoon? More like 'middle of the night' for me but I guess I should be used to it by now '^^
Happy for everyone who is excited for this holiday :)

I don't see any items being added yet. Either they're going to be added when it's really late in Amber's time zone, she'll add them first thing in the morning instead, or they've been added as staff rarity. L'amour Parlour is closed but Zombie Den is still open, so maybe that last one is what's happening and they haven't moved on to the zombie items yet.

Things you can do to get ready for Survival right now.
- Take off your skin.
- Put on your clothes.
- Finish throwing snowballs.
- Don't forget to get bit. ;)
That is:
- Go to Wardrobe, Skins, Clear Current Skin: https://new.subeta.net/wardrobe/skins Then remember to tap the Wear button! You can't get a virus going if you already have an unliving skin on!
- Put on whatever you want to wear right now; sometimes there are wardrobe issues, so better to be safe & slay today.
- Throwing snowballs gets turned off (because it interferes with viruses), so finish up whatever you're doing.
- After selecting an infection, remember to go to the forum and GET BIT until you get the notification: "Thank you for using the Volunteer Infection Program! You have been matched with an Infection Specialist, now you just need to sit back and enjoy the ride..." Otherwise you'll have to wait days to "naturally incubate your strain; no one has time for that! ┐(ˇヘˇ)┌

My office was closed today so I had a long weekend, so of course it's not starting until tomorrow. Oh well, hope there's some cool new stuff. :)

I hope you all remember to take your time! A firm mix of negativity and positivity over wait times tend to happen each year, but know that you guys have been rocking it every year i've participated! Take as much time as you guys need, you got this!!

Hey, when you said at the latest Tuesday, you were right on it, Amber!

@Ziorac Early afternoon, like I’m aiming for Noon on Subeta. I’ll be getting as much ready as I can tonight and then I’ll be up early in the morning to finish things. I only said early afternoon because I’m on the west coast while Subeta is east coast, so there’s a three hour difference.
One reason I really hate having holidays start at midnight is just that there is already so much on the site trying to run right at midnight. I also don’t enjoy having a specific time just because things happen and last-minute checks might push something back 10 minutes or 30.

@Kinnoyu About Survival:
-> You can click on the kiss link and kiss people (also other people can kiss you). You will get
Candy Hearts, which is seasonal currency and you can buy items from "L'Amour Parlour" shop.
-> You can get infected, if you want (you need click on page called ''Volunteering program'' before), people can bite you and you can get a virus on your HA, which will progress and in the end it will unlock certain skin in your wardrobe.
---> It is one of the most social event, so there will many forums, where people're releasing CWs or make for example raffles, which you can enter with certain amount of kisses. There will new virus (and new skins), so people track the progress of it, and people can also bite others, who wants to get infected to make the infection faster.
I hope it will helpp a little bit, but you will see tomorrow.^-^

Thank you for the info on the timing, I always hope to be online when it starts but usually end up being a bit late. I will try for sure, I'm excited :)

Early afternoon? Based on previous experience, it'll be early evening at best, meaning any non-American continent people get shafted yet again by missing the first day and not being able to start their strains early.>.>
Why can't it just start at midnight? Is there a specific reason for this time slot?

I was hoping it would start today...
tomorrow afternoon means sleeping time (it would be midnight german time), so I won't be able to experience the holiday much because I have to work again :/
oh well, maybe this weekend!

Thanks for the announcement!
It's a bummer that we weren't able to get things running prior to the long weekend. 😞 I had a lot of time just begging to be spent on zombies.
But at least I can stop refreshing the directory now.

sooo what is survival? I read about it but I guess I don't know a whole bunch about what happens during it. I've never been into the holidays of subeta until recently lol

Thanks for assuring us that we will have plenty of time, even if I was hoping it wouldn't start right on the deadline you gave yourselves.

Woo, thanks for confirming that, Amber! I know people like to try to plan out their infections within the event time period.

Hyped. Makes sense that you are announcing it because I am feeling sick today. Hope I'm not diagnosed with one of the new viruses.

Yay Survival :D
Are the strain progression times going to be similar to how they were last year (as in a bit shorter than some previous years) ?

As much as I was hoping it would start today, I'm happy to wait for it a little longer! Two full weeks, as well!
Thank you, staff!

Thanks. Disappointed it's not today and I will likely be late to the party, 'cause life. But glad it's finally going to start and looking forward to seeing new stuff.
