SURVIVAL IS HERE (2025)

It's time. It's finally time to visit Gunner and sign up for the Voluntary Infection Program (VIP). We look forward to seeing what names y'all come up with for the viruses this year! This user-run thread will be tracking the progression of this year's strains and will be taking suggestions for names that y'all will vote on.

can we please get a reminder event to kiss people?
StarShadow
I see the achievements haven't updated. Mine still says infection specialist 278/250.
jKat
Can't wait for battle challengers!
Hunger
Ah, thank you for fixing everything <3
rattus
It wouldn't be a proper Survival without a few bugs in the beginning 😁 Glad you got it fixed this fast! Can't wait to see how the new strains look.
moonstarr
Aww! Gunner shows that I've asked for any new virus (which I have) but in the forums, my avatar still shows "no biting." Not gonna get infected very fast that way. :(
Bliss
@Keith
I chose Moisturized, but it looks like Flourishing. Are you able to confirm if I have Moisturized?
theentirelegend
thanks so much to Keith and Amber for getting things rolling again - a lot of us do really appreciate what you do here!! 💜💜 don't let the haters get you down 😁
Trees
I already got one, but thanks.
Keith STAFF
@Trees It's back up - hopefully you can get in quickly!
Trees
Finally!!! Sorry that we all had to go through this. Now I have some kind of dangling worm that fits right in with my cave background.
Ambition
I know nobody cares about site themes anymore, but I do. I so strongly wish we had a pink/survival/sweetheart theme and a zombie theme.
Hunger
Survival be like
Keith STAFF
The forums, wardrobe, and hex system (how strains work) are all conveniently in the same code path, so they're all wrecking each other right now.

Bringing up an additional server to try and lighten the load

Oh No!
Whoops! Something went wrong with the program, so Gunner is taking a look. Enjoy rest of Survival activities for now!
Honestly I'm not surprised - I just hope Gunner can fix it without breaking anything!
Gastrodon
Good luck with the fixes staff! Thanks for working on it for us.
Laurey
At this point I’m kind of just glad that Survival is able to work at all with Subeta’s spaghetti code. :P

Looking forward to seeing the new strains once it’s fixed!
Sheap
Well, the note up on the page said that they working about it and maybe in a hour od so it will running normally.
So I'll wait.
Subeta team is working a lot on the page lately, I can wait an hour pulls out a book and start reading
Bliss
Nothing is working. Wardrobe, fourms, kissing. Very frustrating! 😞
Rogue
Skitters, my love, it's been too long :kiss:
Astra
I agree it's frustrating for us all when holidays/features don't work as they should, but as always, staff is working on it and will surely have things fixed soon. Let's appreciate all they do for this community, especially during major events.
Supernova
Thank you to everyone working on fixing things! We love survival enough to wait for it!! <3
MarchOnOff
Yeah, nothing works anymore, very frustrating for everyone, so things as usual...Probably this won't post either.
Saturnine
I love the pillows!
MarchOnOff
Quite frustrating, for everyone involved...
Evy
So viruses don't work, the kissing code doesn't work, and the forums don't work?
Sounds like a typical Subetan holiday! 🥹
BoaConstrictor
Forums seized to load! I kissed twice, now it's broken :-(
MarchOnOff
All peachy, but forums don't work, CW shops don't load and most important, kissing not working...good, old Subeta, eh?
Trees
Wow, Amber made changing the year out to be very simple. I guess that explains all the lag. Sorry that you're having to deal with this, since you probably expected to be able to relax once it started.

I just don't like it when I see someone else with the same strain as me and they're already on the next stage while I'm not, so it's spoiled for me. That's why I want to get one of the new ones as soon as it's open and working again.
Keith STAFF
Also -- please note that I'm clearing out infections when it comes back up, you do not need to pay to remove the infection!
Stiles
Wouldn't be a subeta event without errors at the get go, tradition at this point
Keith STAFF
@Trees You're in the same boat as every other user, so there isn't "missing progression" here. We'll extend the holiday as needed, if needed.

This is an aging code base, built on years and years of tech debt. Changing the value of something from `2024` to `2025` is literally enough to bring down a house of cards. We're doing our best.

" There's less items than the previous years or am I just paranoid? "

There are less items, which allows people to actually catch up. Good.
VINYL
LETS GOOOOOOO NEW ARCHAN ITEM !!!
Sweetie Archan Cupcake Beanbag

SWEETIE ARCHAN CUPCAKE BEANBAG !!! i'M ALWAYS ASKING FOR MORE ARCHAN ITEMS!!!
THE ONE USER ON THE SITE!!! RAAAAAAHh!!
Trees
Darn, the VIP came back but I STILL got one of last year's strains and had to spend another 1mil... Could you please temporarily make it free to clear it while you sort this out? I've already lost 3mil...
Regenerator
There's less items than the previous years or am I just paranoid?
Trees
Any ETA on the fix? There's other things I'd like to do, but I want to be able to get one of the new strains as soon as they're available so I'm not too far behind in progression and am less likely to have the next stage spoiled for me before I reach it.
beinagrind
Let's go lesbians
Bucciarati
oh subeta.. some things never change lol
Monologue
@Amber I think the oversized moon pillow is missing in the shop as well
Larseneil
i hope there's an option to clear your strain for free once stuff is fixed
Pinocchio
I'm 800 kisses over the new tier LOL Winning without even trying xD
Tucker
oh, i just realized i got last years one instead so i was going to clear it and it's down :d
brokensafety
I got last year's, and I hope it will be removed so I can start over without paying. Thank you, in advance.
Bliss
Nooo! It's broken XD
Nebet
I also got one of last year's strains and had to pay 1m to remove it....
Keith STAFF
Hey everyone -- I'm taking a look at what is going on with the strains. Thanks for the patience!
Amber STAFF
This was my fault - when I had Keith clear some things last night I hadn't updated the year to now. I believe that's the problem here. I've passed it on to him and taken Gunner down for now!
Senti
How do I tell if I got a new virus? Or even tell what virus I have now
Trees
So much for making sure nothing went wrong... There always has to be something, doesn't there. It's like this holiday is cursed.
