Nuclear Day?

Postby Flanderlion » Sat Aug 12, 2017 1:01 am

I just received another TG regarding N-Day (not a name I came up with) and having to answer a few q's about it in the last few days. Given the 29th is the International Day against Nuclear Tests (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internati ... lear_Tests), would we please be able to have a repeat of the event? Or if not, can we get a 'NS cannot handle another Nuclear War' thing so we can rule it out of planning/tell people that they missed out and it's tough luck.

I too hope to celebrate this or International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons(sep 26th) with a repeat of the event.

I can think of no more NSy way to observe this day then eliminating our stockpiles by lobbing them at one another with radioactive glee.

Considering that I miss the last event, it would be interesting to see it again.

Oh dear. Is that the potential makings of another annual event like the Halloween zombies I hear? :P

Yeah... actually, that would be a very "NSy" way to celebrate nuclear disarmament. :lol2:

I'm not precious on the date, we just want another shot at wiping TNP. 29th has an advantage of being further away from Z-Day, so we don't have events all clustered, but Sep 26th seems to have more of backstory to it (would have suggested the 26th if I had saw that when I googled it).

This does seem like a reasonable ask.

There aren't any ways to celebrate the end of summer that are better than thermonuclear warfare.

Personally, I think that to keep this from becoming like the NS zombie event where it gets boring after several years for us old farts, we should alternate each year: like 2017, we can do the nukes again, then 2018, we can do the zombies, and repeat and repeat. That way, there can be variety so people won't complain that "it's the same shit every year."

Then it's just the same ____ every two years. What does that accomplish?

There will be less fatigue. Like I don't think we will get bored if we alternate every couple years. But having the same event every single year gets tiring for us old farts.

Lore wise I think Sep 26th fits better actually (has totally nothing to do that I realised I'd be on holiday on the 29th of Aug). That said, I'd prefer something rather than nothing, so whatever works, I can just make excuses to peeps and use data.
