Saturday, November 3, 2012 from 1600 hours (4 p.m.) to 2000 hrs (8 p.m.) Eastern Time
I woke up on the beach. “Where the hell am I?” Disoriented and cold, I began to remember a living horror.“Was it a dream?” In the distance, I could hear howling and screaming. I pinched myself and did not wake. I quickly came to realize this was reality. I was thrown into a survival situation and began to feel the burning desire to live deep within.
“What do I need to do?” “Where should I go?” “Who can assist me?” I inventoried my equipment. “Man, I am in a hurt locker!” I noticed in the night time surf something floating. It’s a clear glass bottle with a cork in it and, “Wait?!”, there’s a message.
The message read:
“On this scary night, only the tricky will be treated. If treasures you seek, look to the coast and find what you’ve been needin'. The Zombie Zone between Cherno and Elektro will yield the most. Be wary of course, or wind up bleedin'!”
During hours of limited visibility, find rare items along the coast in vicinity of the main southern cities. But, beware of the tricks the PCGN staff have in-store for you; for they are plotting against you. Live or DIE as the zombies hunger for a fresh kill and thirst for warm blood.
Sin “The Merchant” will be the designated collector of loot items acquired by participants.
Rules:
• No hacking
• No Killing!!! (Except for zombies)
• Killing Sin or destroying the Blue Ural used for collecting and distributing event loot items before, during, or after the event will not be tolerated.
