Welcome to the Weeklong Gif recap! These will be posted nightly after the mission! Without further ado...

There were quite a lot of people at Late Night to celebrate the start of the Weeklong.

Five minutes after Midnight there was no one to be found...

Not a lot happened at the day mission and it seemed like the OZs weren't planning to make a lot of kills. Boy were we wrong.

The night mission required Humans to escort other agents. Many of which found themselves in... predicaments.

Zombies won in the end but Humans still managed to complete a few of their objectives so as a reward basters have been unlocked and more objectives will be made available during tomorrows day mission. Speaking of, Humans will have a day mission tomorrow from 11:00 am to 12:30 pm on the UC Balcony. Zombies will have a day mission from 12:30 pm to 2:00 pm at the Sherman/ACIV Underpass. Good luck agents. And be careful, it's possible a mole may still be among your ranks...

The first mission of the semester was a success!

There were quite a few humans at the start of the mission... and a lot of zombies by the end.

Monday's mission was An Arm and a Leg and the humans had to bring Dr. Doom and actual arm and a leg. Get it?

Anyway, Thursday's mission was Back to Training and the humans had to complete several tasks for the mods. One of those was to show the mod a supering human. Laura volunteered as a sacrifice.

...but the zombies caught on and didn't want to tag her at first.

Afterwards Jess activated Marcus's final task which made the other two mods super zombies. They really enjoyed chasing the humans.

In the end the humans managed to complete the hold and claim victory!

Monday - Roadblock
Zombies quickly began discussing how to use the roadblock mechanic.


... but had a bit of difficulty making sure they were in multiples of three.


The zombies distracted the humans so Laura could reveal as OZ


Thank you to everyone who helped us take pictures after the mission!


Thursday - Trust
The humans quickly scattered after Cameron revealed.


Not enough stayed behind to keep the escort moving


The number of OZs was doubled for the second round...


... and the hold was OZ reveal chaos.

Monday - Baa, Baa, Black Sheep
The Mission for both Humans and Zombies was to heard sheep...


...but this was not easy for either side because if you touched the sheep, you died.


The Humans had most of the sheep at one point in their hold...


...but the Zombies somehow killed all the Humans and retrieved all six sheep.


Thursday - That's So Fetch
Katy needed us to find her Vodquila all over campus. At least 40 bottles of it...


Chris B. threw a bottle at a someone that was not a mod...


The Humans tried to have a campfire on the Quad.


See you all next week!
