Server Restart Event.

TheRedNeckYeti — Fri, 28 Mar 2014 21:54:44 +0000

Hello everyone and again welcome to the group! Today we are at 15 members with a few more pending. This announcement is to pretty much welcome you all, encourage some active participation on the group page and to sync up a time we can actively play together.

So first, welcome. It’s good to have a few likeminded individuals to live in the zombie apocalypse with. I hope that we have many hours of gameplay ahead of us and that spills over into other games as well as further builds of project zomboid.

Second, in order to make the next move with the server I need feedback from you all. I am not going to just admin and change things on a whim. The idea of this community is to play to the desire of the group as a group. In game you may have your own little faction or isolated existence but outside in the Red House we should strive to make the server decisions as a community. So feedback on forum posts is highly encouraged!

That all being said we get to the, in my opinion, best part! The first event. So I know you may have seen several events pop up informing you of server status, those will continue, but what I am talking about now is a world restart. After we snatch up a few more people in the group we reset the world at a time where everyone can play and experience the initial outbreak together, for better or worse… Currently we have had players on and more established than the new players that join. For example I have a lot a shotgun ammo and farming gear… A lot.. So in order to give everyone an equal footing we will start from scratch and see what evolves from there.

Now for your job. Use this announcement to introduce yourselves, get to know one another and hash out a time most of us, preferably all of us can be present of the outbreak of the living dead!

So begin now, I will probably give this a day or two to simmer and get an idea of when folks are on before I start poking at you individually to guide you here.. And please, if you are NOT INTERESTED in being an active part of the community let me know so we can smoothly part ways now. We only have so many slots for people and we want them used!

Thank you all for your time and I look forward to your feedback! -Yeti

Group Recruitment.

TheRedNeckYeti — Thu, 27 Mar 2014 00:07:57 +0000

Hello everyone, in an effort to populate our little world with other factions I encourage everyone to advertise for the group. Feel free to recruit for your own faction or recruit other people who have a desire to build their own faction. TO BE CLEAR DO NOT GIVE OUT THE IP ADDRESS UNLESS THEY ARE IN THE GROUP (In which case you should never have to give it out because they can see it.). To reinstate what is on the information page we are looking for a little bit of role play. I.e. Carve out your own territory, trade, clear a road and charge a toll to pass, set up a way station/supply station between towns and charge or trade for supply’s or even build your own town. Whatever you see fit to do. PvP is active and it is encouraged that you protect your claim but we are not looking for all out wars or Kill On Sight (KOS). Please make that clear to the people you may look to advertise to. Now at this time we have ports for 30 people with a little room to open 5 or so more. At once we have a large group we will set up a date to stress test and at that point decide on a final server slot number. Thank you for your time and good luck in the apocalypse!
