Ok, it's Day 5 in The Town That Will Not Die.
I say this because we still have not been able to build a workshop, over half the town was inactive (doggy bags and welcome packs sitting in their houses, didn't even take a water ration), and of the active players, several were of the "I know better than you guys, we're building the portal lock first thing!" type. We even have squabbling over leadership in the construction forum.
We have not been able to build anything since Day 2 (as no concrete has ever turned up, despite increasingly desperate expeditions far from town to find undepleted squares).
We have no defenses other than Great Pit and Barbs, and no planks or iron in the bank. Every square within 5 AP is depleted and full of zombies. Everybody has been totally depressed and waiting for death since Day 2, and every day we get a few who give up and walk out the gate thirty minutes before the attack.
Despite all of this, the zombies seem to be going easy on us. Despite the wretched defenses, the zombies have been kept outside the walls every night (except on the second night when only four got through). The only major casualties we have incurred was on Day 4, when all the inactive citizens died of dehydration.
The town atmosphere is creepy and depressing, with almost everybody terrified, and the forums filled with gibberish and desperate pleas for help from the stranded expedition (for the past two days they kept getting stranded outside town, only getting saved by last minute rescues within two hours before the attack).
There are twelve of us left. Two have been infected since the second day, and seem to be afflicted with the same curse the town is under, namely they Will Not Die.
Even tonight, there are 125-136 zombies incoming. Although we only have 112 defense, and no more materials to build anything else, we keep voting to upgrade the Great Pit, and it seems that will be enough to keep out most of the zombies.
Sadly, we will not die tonight.
