Posted on Sun Jul 28th, 2024 @ 3:10am by in Sim Announcement

Hello, Survivors!

Thanks to the efforts of Ray (who writes for Alonzo Blazevic), we have a new and improved manifest that better fits the needs of our particular sim.

We're organized by families and those who are single are listed under 'The Unattached'. If your situation changes and you become part of someone's family, then we'll switch you around.

Suffixes:
========
Military designations are no longer going to be shown on the manifest and you'll see that they've been removed for you -- we're doing that for two reasons. One, it's no longer a part of our reality and two,…

Congratulations, Survivors!

We started our first episode, Bangor or Bust, Saturday, 15 April 2023. Tomorrow, nearly a year later, we will finally finish it. For those who like stats, we have, as a group, written 332 posts for this episode, 34 of them in the past month. And now, nearly a year later, its time to move on. There will be a short post tomorrow explaining what happens to the safe zone and after that, Bangor or Bust will be closed for posting and we'll be moving into the new episode (I'm thinking about "Winter is Coming" as a title).…

Hello, Survivors,

Been having a couple days of good weather here, sort of like the first promise of Spring, and its been lovely. Also, Watson, my cat, discovered Cat TV (its a YouTube channel) and he loves it. For a cat who absolutely refuses to go anywhere near the outside world, he's been mighty brave swatting at those birds.

Sim Statistics

No changes in the number of writers this month so we're still holding at eight. We are losing a couple of NPCs though -- Courtney, Jordan, Father Dominic I believe. Not sure about Bao (been quiet since the delivery)…

Hello, Survivors,

Okay, its been an embarrassingly long time since I've done this so, let me start by offering my profound apologies. Had a bit of a Star Trek sim burnout going on and a lot of things fell by the wayside. Things are better now and I'm totally back.

Sim Statistics

We added two survivors, Stephen Wolff and Reuben Baptiste. That brought us up to nine writers. Course, Stephen dropped out again so we have added one new writer -- which means two service dogs and three military personnel. The world has never seemed safer, eh?

You know, we…

OOC: A back, back post before TJ met up with Josh, Kimberly and Lydia


TJ had left Medfield and was on the road to Boston. He was on foot, the cars he had seen abandoned were out of gas or had been wrecked to be undriveable. He hadn't even seen a bicycle. So, he continued on using good old Pat and Joe otherwise known as his feet. He kept a steady pace; one he could easily maintain without worrying about tiring himself out.

The road was devoid of any human traffic but was littered with wrecked and abandoned cars. He…

Kimberly looked up at the sky as she finished her hauling of wood to the construction site. She looked around and noted faces and the fatigue. So she put the load down and headed to the food area. They needed to eat and she set about preparing sandwiches for the camp. They had limited time for the bread and such they had, and if the gathering team brought back flour they could make more bread but for now, they would make do.

She cut up the last of their fruit and placed the food on a table they had brought…

In the end, the Infernals had chosen to occupy one apartment and remain together, as they had in the days before the hotel, drawing comfort from the close quarters. Privately, Dante couldn't blame them; he wouldn't sleep tonight and had already set up a comfortable chair near a window with a view of the street. In the meantime though, everyone had questions and it was time to make a plan because staying here, well, that wasn't going to work for long.

Dodger walked over to the Infernal leader and his friend. "Anything you need me to do Dante," he asked…

September 4th 2010 - 2 days until collapse

They had driven until dusk on their first day heading towards their old home town of Savannah. They had loose plans to get home, gather the family they could and head for the Coast and try and find a safe haven.

Mackenzie woke first from what had been a fitful sleep in their caravan. They had pulled off the main road and down into a small wooded area, hiding their caravan and the truck behind the trees, with Jackson making sure that neither could be seen from the road. They had eaten…

Dodger listened intensely to Dante's instructions. "Right, will do. Hopefully she'll agree to come along. In any event I'll see you guys soon," Dodger said and an instant later he was gone, in search of Amy.

Dodger slipped between the shadows, all the while keeping an eye peeled for anyone following him which made catching up to Amy even harder. However, he was determined to reach the girl and warn her.

Amy was only a short distance away, she was listening around a corner to make sure the coast was clear.

Dodger continued to more stealthily as he followed in…

Definitely official, even if Sandwich will not admit it. He has an attachment for Thea. At the evening meal and campfire meeting I caught him dividing his plate in half and giving Thea the the half he separated. He then ate half of his portion and feed Kenny the other half. I plan to say something to him, I'll offer to feed Kenny half my food share if he insist on giving Thea half of his food share. I am amazed how he treats Thea, almost like our mother, or us girls. He also seems…

Reuben talked with Catalina when she had joined with him in helping the group. During the stops for the evening on the way to Hale's property Catalina filled him in on how the ranch and family were doing. Apparently their father was quick to realize the situation and started the process of fortifying the ranch, He had the hands bring the cattle in closer for the rest of the year and would decide in mid spring what to do about how to safely graze them. He and the hands also began working on the barb wire around the ranch.

Well found Sandwich, he deviated from his emergency escape route and hookup with a group of survivors. Not sure about the group but they appear to be decent folks. The leader, Hale Stratton, is very similar to Sandwich; dark, brooding and all military. I suspect there is more under the man other than being a Major in the Rangers. I cannot quite sure what it is yet; but never mind that. Sandwich has decided to continue travelling with the group, so I am tagging along as well. He states he will decide what to do…

At least I think it is. Been a long and lonely trip back east since I departed from CeeBee and her beau. Not sure how father is going to react to him when they get to the homestead, if they get to the homestead, which I am sure CeeBee will accomplish. CeeBee’s beau is a skinny ass nerd, hell the Wyoming winds would most likely bowl him over. His one saving grace in my eyes, he was studying Pre-veterinary Medicine before the SHTF. All well last father requested on the portable Ham radio was for…

**Diary Entry of Dr. Serena Reynolds**

The past few hours have been a strange blend of anxiety and fleeting relief. I’m sitting next to Timothy in our truck, cradling PJ in my arms while he sleeps peacefully, blissfully unaware of the chaos around us. We’ve just joined a convoy of survivors heading west from Bangor, Maine. We’re on this journey together now, a makeshift family thrown together by fate and necessity.

René Rouen, one of the teenagers in our group, has a gunshot wound in his leg. The bullet went clean through, but without proper medical supplies, I’m worried about…
