Your Event by avidd opolis

August 21st, 2006 9:58 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Organize and orchestrate an SFZero event. Your event should be tied to a task that you create. You must invite all players to your event. We can help with mass messaging, and by puting an announcement on the front page. Everything else is up to you.

We all look forward to attending your wonderful event.

This weekend several SF0 players found themselves in the middle of a zombie outbreak.

To recap:
A couple weeks ago I announced the event in SF0's news section. I said
"Stand on the east side of Powell street between Market and O'Farrel. It's that bit of brick road where the cable car turns around. Wear clothes that can be totally destroyed and a patch of duct tape clearly visible on your torso. Something interesting will happen. Don't be late."

At the same time, I announced the actual plans to the rest of the world. It started with RubinStarset, RockHardPhantom, TheRealStarchyGrant and four friends on the corner of Market and Sansome. Participants in the mob were told to wear Duct tape to indicate that they wanted to be attacked. We stumbled out into the square in full zombie gear and started tackling bystanders and spraying them with kryolan brand costume blood. We also had scissors to shred clothing. When we made a new zombie, RockHardPhantom would slip them makeup supplies so that they could help create even more.

By the time the mob hit Powell street where the SF0 players were stationed, there were at least one hundred zombies. I know lowtek and jaschu and sam were there, starchy, rubin, avidd, rockhardphantom, think i saw cunning. Who else made it?

After that we took the mob to Union Square and made unplanned stops by the Apple Store, The Metreon shopping center, and the SF Moma. After two hours of mobbing we finally ended at a biker bar, by that time down to 20. The underage zombies had to leave, unfortunately.

I was wondering. Am I gonna get pied? Am I gonna get tarred and feathered? no, I get attacked by zombies

The interesting part was walking back through the tenderloin alone to get my change of clothes. I had a ripped up shirt and blood everywhere. I must have looked scary! good times. good times.

Thanks Avidd! That was great I can't wait to see some of the videos.

> Was it all SF0ers or was it larger than that?
There were many many zombies most of which were not SF0ers. I would estimate over 100 but I'm terrible at that kind of thing so I may be way off.

Brainz!

I didn't get nearly bloody enough

Sorry also for being cryptic and non-talkative to those players I just met, I didn't want to ruin the surprise!

i'm really sorry i couldn't come, i heard it was awesome--i really love that in your photos, you're holding your cell phone while obviously being a very proactive zombie.
