ZIPOCalypse - badges, prizes, etc.

Hi I'm about to head out until next week but I wanted to WARN YOU ALL about missable badges that I meant to announce days ago but forgot.

Once Homoween ends, badges and prizes will be distributed based on merit for performance in the ZIPOCalypse. The following milestones will yield a badge:

Vaxxed 10 people

Vaxxed 100 people

Bit 10 people

Bit 100 peopple

You'll also keep the badge belonging to the team you were on at the time this ends. The winning team will get an upgraded variant which I haven't made yet but it will probably just be shiny and have a straggy sparkle effect. This would, ideally, be at midnight on some day, but it's unlikely that any of us will be around or remember or care enough to do that. So it really could be any time after Homoween. It might even be midnight, I don't know. Stay healthy r-slurs.

DC prizes will be paid out to the winning team provided infection/vax rates are over a certain threshhold:

60% - 1,000

70% - 2,500

80% - 5,000

90% - 10,000

Also considering paying 5dc out per every vax/bite award used by your respective team at the end, but that seems like it may devastate the economy and we'll have to run the numbers at the end to determine whether or not this is viable.

As a reminder, vaxxed status gives you triple DC, zombie status gives your posts and comments double weighting. Zombiecels get a free bite every 24 hours. Vaxchads smell nice and have s*x (and can tank 2 bites per vax tier).

That's all, I'm going now, bye

edit:

Healthiness works as follows:

Zombie pfp - this user is a zombie. They were bitten without any active vaxes.

Normie - Loser. No bites or vax in effect.

Vaxxed - Their pronouns are giga/boosted. They have been vaxxed once and are currently healthy.

Vaxmaxxed - Their pronouns are VAX/MAXXED. This user was vaccinated and then vaccinated again. This stacks up to 4 times, providing resistance to up to 10 bites before becoming a zombie.

The top 10 performers for their respective team (at the end) will be given special prizes ✨
