Survival 2015!
Hello, I’m Titania McGee with Channel 5 News, your best source for up-to-date information.
The 6th Anniversary of the Great Pandemic tragedy begins today, a festival commonly known as ‘Survival’ by the citizens of Subeta. You may wish to join the celebration or pay your respects to those that left us in years past. Citizens are reminded that Shadowglen is off-limits for the duration of the Survival Celebration -- The Unliving have their own rituals and do not appreciate intrusion from outsiders. They do, however, welcome fledgling zombies into their community, and whilst there has been a lull population growth for the last two years, we have a certain…dare I say exceedingly handsome? young entrepreneur who may have the solution to this problem. I spoke Mr. Gunner Knight earlier today, and he had this to say about the situation.

The Underground Needs You!
Hello out there, infection fans! I’m Gunner Knight, welcoming you to another exciting anniversary of the start of unliving society. I’m also excited to welcome you to the United Zombie Alliance’s (in association with Genetech Labs LLC) thrilling new project, the Voluntary Infection Program.
Have you ever wanted to join the ranks of the unliving in a safe and controlled environment? Let our dedicated staff match you with one of our approved Infection Specialists in order to get you the disease of your choice! Already infected? Ask our knowledgeable team if becoming an Infection Specialist is right for you!
Remember, VIP isn’t just an acronym, it’s how you will be treated!
Exciting developments from Shadowglen, indeed! In other news, the eccentric ‘Skitters’ is back in business with his seasonal shop of gifts for the unliving. He had this to say to me when I interviewed him earlier:
Quote:
MANY NEW THINGS FOR YOU TO BUY. HUMANS MONEYS JUST AS GOOD. PRICES FOR SKU-AYE APARTMENTS VERY BIG. HAPPY WITH ALL COMMUNITY. NEW ITEMS ONLY, AVAILABLE NOW. OLD ITEMS READY LATER.
Sounds like an excellent shopping experience! And my last interviewee for the day was Louis L’amour, owner of L’amours Parlor.
Quote:
Darling, we have oodles of merchandise in the Parlor, here. Come in and have a look! There’s something for everyone. Just bring your heart to me! Candy heart that is. Love is in the air!
This is Titania McGee reporting for Channel 5 News, and frankly, thinking about making a trip to see Mr. Knight myself. Signing off!

Are there going to be male versions (shirts) of the dinosaur dresses in L'Amour's shop?
Coastal, refreshing!! My tribute to this wicked Pissah NE seacoast Wintah of frozen suck! Ovah 4 feet and another blizzard coming in to dump a foot more!! ___ I AM INFECTED ____ :P
THIS IS ALL AWESOME.
except I clicked on the 'new strain' without having to wait button... but it doesn't look like my base has changed at all and the VIP page just says 'Thanks for your interest in becoming an Infection Specialist! Unfortunately, your strain hasn't progressed far enough for your bite to be effective, but try again later!' whenever I visit it, so I'm extra super confused. D: will I be able to pick another strain later before the end of the event, or am I glitched out or something? aaa /flail
(I'll check back and make a ticket in a bit if I'm still getting the same message on the VIP page/my base is still completely normal)

Also, being able to immediately click to a new strain ? Great way for users to go broke without having a Stop ! You're already infected ! popup or any way to stop them ? I LOVE Survival, I do. I just want this to go smoothly. I've switched three times now, and I'm not sure we should be able to do that. Once because there were no previews or anything, once to see what I did and a third to test if I could switch.

Kellijuana - Skitters has his shop outside of the underground, and is open to everyone. Right now he's just selling his new stock, but plans to bring back his old items soon :) You can get a new infection if you aren't wearing your base, and you can only be a infector if you're wearing your base. :)
I can't wait to see what the perfumes are! I haven't been so excited for an event in a very long time.
Questions questions questions. So, if in a zombie but not wearing my skin can I sign up to be a VIP and get a new skin? Or can I only be a specialist? Do we have to wear our skin to be a specialist? When you say new items only...? (I know it says old items later but) Are the old shops going to be closed to old zombies as well from now on, like more like the other seasonal shops where the old years retire as we go?
I've missed this for the last few years - does laying flowers on the memorial do anything? Are the flowers used for anything else? Are candy hearts findable in the same way as the flowers?
BUT I WANT A PLOT IN THE FUTURE WHERE SKITTERS GETS HIS APARTMENT
he's been waiting so long poor baby

Edit to my last post: For anyone who is wondering, you can remove your old virus skin via wardrobe and get a new one when you re-visit the VIP page (at least, my "old" one was one from ages ago). Had a derp moment there!
Can we at least know if they are temporary?
Because if I have to dance the mambo, hold a chicken wings between my teeth and yell loudly "I AM TASTY" to be cured .. :( dealbreaker.

I randomly clicked a new one in the spirit of past year's random infections.
I am really proud of the staff for thinking up a cool way to bring zombies back in a way that makes sense and yet isn't a plot AND works as an sP and just plain looks awesome. So much kudos.

oh one thing though—"we are gouda together" is meant to be a sticker, right? cause...it's currently not.
Clicked on skin, hoping I was going to get a preview of it before I purchased.
There goes 1mil..
hope it's a cool skin >.>

So one click and you're infected ? You know, maybe having a preview before you commit might be useful, especially for older strains.
Eek! Should have thought more about getting a new infection before deciding to re-wear my old virus skin. Looks like I can't change it, for now at least x_x
Though it is too bad that they aren't able to have children. I'm sure Gunner could help keep up Unliving population all on his own.
The only disease he suffers from is hotness. ;)

More details about the infections please! Are they permanent and do we have to choose only one?
A few things
- I love all of the hair. ALL of them. And the Skeletal Undead Jacket/various other wears and items. BOOKS. Booooooks. And Sweetheart plushies/beanbags. ♥️
- Gunner is a stud.
- If I am a zombie, may I take the skin off to get another zombie strain or will it defeat my chances at accessing older pages of the Den ?
I'm really excited to be Luminescent, whatever that means. Just the word is enough to make me happy. :)
