Z-Day 8 response

The Z-Day 8 response was the coordinated effort by The League of Conservative Nations's community to keep The League of Conservative Nations from being overrun by zombies during the 2019 iteration of NationState's annual Z-Day event.

Background

Originally an April fools prank, Z-Day it was first described by site owner Max Barry in 2013 as "a mild uptick in infection rates of a flu-like illness"- Since then, the simulated zombie pandemic has since become an annual Halloween event. From the first iteration, Barry has said that he believes "since everybody would be better prepared for the apocalypse" the site should "ramp up the potency of zombie exporters", which has been reflected in the increasing difficulty of each year.

Preparations

Z-Day command was headed by Consuls Quebecshire, Caezar, and Eminople, Defense Administration Director The New Fandom Republic, and General of the Armed Forces Creeperopolis. Z-Day Command was supplemented by the Z-Day taskforce, which was recruited from the citizenry.
