Yes but it's just a non-permanent game that has no lasting effects.

I'm pretty sure calling it "Corona-chan" is going to offend more people than Z-Day does.Nilrahrarfan wrote:I have an idea: The Blob
It keeps the scare factor, but doesn't cause issues with players affected by Corona-chan. Just change some text, and boom. Easy as that.

Just by reading the posts within this thread, the Blob thread, the Demon Day thread, and some posts in a few RBMs, I believe the majority aggreed it should still act as it would normally but edited with code to fulfill the changes the community of NS suggested and wanted, but its still all up to the mods of course. I know NS isn't a democracy, but there was to be some type of decision made, wheather it's a communal vote, a mod-only vote, or whatever, also decide if there would be an opt-in option even though all effects reversed the first time.

Let people opt out, let it be themed differently, whatever - that part I don't care about in the slightest - but this is our only chance each year to weaponize compassion to save each other and ourselves. It's one of the few times we get to pull together as regions to fight off a threat where our activity doesn't destroy people, but saves them.
I get the alliance/politicking aspect of N-Day and see why people get into that, but it's built on a fundamentally different premise and I personally find it hard to enjoy as a result.
Z-Day is the only reason I have been logging in to my nations every 21-28 days for a year. I was SO EXCITED to see it was on a weekend this time. I assume very few other people are this attached to it, but it's literally the only reason I still play.

This confirms that there's still going to be a zombie event, since it would be silly to have an opt-out if there's nothing to opt out of.
Note the exact wording of the switch's help text: "Do not display (most) information relating to the annual Z-Day Zombie Apocalypse." This implies that your nation does still get infected and affects other nations in the region accordingly, you just don't see it. Same effect that inactive nations normally have on the region.
I wonder if this suppresses the national happenings lines from superweapons, though. If not, it's not a very effective blindfold. If it does, it sounds like it might be abusable.

Honestly, I think those matter less - the bigger issues was always that the Zombie graphs took up a giant chunk of the screen and couldn't be avoided. Compared to that, the happenings lines aren't that noticeable.

You don't see them on every page, but when you are on the relevant page, they completely flood out all other happenings.Lord Dominator wrote:Honestly, I think those matter less - the bigger issues was always that the Zombie graphs took up a giant chunk of the screen and couldn't be avoided.

No, census scores are calculated hourly or more, and they're used by many regions to track where the largest concentrations of zombies are (for cure missile prioritization). Having nations hidden from there while still affecting the region would be a serious problem.Minoa wrote:
- Nations that opted-out at the end of the event would get an overriding score of zero for World Census categories 81 to 84 before the trophies and ranks are calculated, eliminating the chance of a Z-Day related trophy or World Census happenings line, and also making it fairer for those who take part (I believe that the census scores are calculated only at the end).
