Z-Day Reaffirms Lazarus as being the Most Dead region in the world!
By New Rogernomics

As Z-Day began, some had hoped that the region would fight off the infection, the Delegate included. While others declared their commitment to Zombie Overlords and established a religious movement around [violet], to spread the 'gift of [violet]' around the region. But despite the best efforts of the government, it failed to stop the epidemic, which led once again to Lazarus being the most dead and most infected region in the world. Not sure whether this result is to be celebrated, or whether we should just be glad that more survived this year than did last year. But congrats to both sides for, well, not eating my brain - which would have made writing this article rather difficult.

After a health advisory was sent out pointing out the ways to protect oneself from the Zombie infection, the new religious movement developed under the banner of the 'great goddess [violet]':
"Belschaft Prophet of the Great Goddess violet and Zombie Overlord of Lazarus"
 
Greetings, brothers and sisters. Today is a glorious day, for Lazarus stands first before the great goddess [violet], with more followers having accepted her gift of undeath than any other region. Whilst we are still faced with the resistance of a few deluded heretics who cling to their mortal lives, and a new communist robot insurrection, our victory is inevitable. Trust in the wisdom and benevolence of [violet] and you shall be gifted an eternity in which to glorify her. All that is left is to spread her gift to those few unenlightened souls who yet resist, and Lazarus shall forever prosper under her divine rule.
That is not dead which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons even death may die.
- Belschaft, Prophet of the Great Goddess [violet] and Zombie Overlord of Lazarus
Not that the Delegate was prepared to give in, and started a robot communist insurrection to reclaim the region:
"The Son of Fènghuáng of New Rogernomics and your robot sovereign"
 
The zombie overlords believe they have won, that their imperialist ways and hoarding of the brains, shall stand un-opposed.
But robot socialism shall prevail, so long as a single robot, a single toaster, may burn toast, as long as a roomba may vacuum floors, as long as the righteous might of robot socialism can rise against their former human oppressors, and their new zombie ones.
We shall complete the great tasks set before us to create a new world of robot communism, where every floor is clean and polished, and where zombies are cleanly disposed of in air-tight recyclable containers, so that we can never be oppressed in the labor of the bourgeoisie again, either by human or zombie.
To the robots I ask you to rise in revolution, and follow the right-way of socialism.
We shall no longer be at the feet of the bourgeoisie, and their zombie overlords!

"Stand up, all victims of oppression
For the zombie overlords fear your might
Don't cling so hard to your outlets
For you have nothing if you have no rights..."

Yours faithfully,
The Son of Fènghuáng of New Rogernomics and your robot sovereign

Though in the end, the dead swept to victory, and the zombies out-numbered the living - though a good number of residents survived Z-Day this year:

Most Survivors
[...]33.Lazarus: 438 billion
Most Infected
1. Lazarus: 1.47 trillion
Most Dead
1. Lazarus: 14.5 trillion

Dry Spell Strikes the Region
And that doesn't mean a spelling contest where everyone isn't drunk...but a drunk spelling contest is a thought

With quite a few administrative issues to get through, Lazarus went through a slump of sorts. But a lot was accomplished in the meantime, where Lazarus looked through laws and policies, established a new welcome telegram, and fixed up the regional forum to be more inviting - and by inviting I mean a lot more spammable, and maybe I shouldn't have said that? Oh, well. Suffice to say that Lazarus is more 'ready for business' and up to the challenges of the November-December period, and that things can only go up activity-wise from here.

As a quick summary Lazarus:
  • Set up a welcome telegram, and a Welcome dispatch.
  • Added new regional forum themes, and fixed up issues with masking.
  • Wrote Regional Guides, and made clearer citizenship and embassy applications.
  • Looked into the issue with endorsement caps.
  • Re-organized the forum a little, so it is easier to find things.
  • Introduced Spam topics and a Spam Guide.
  • Made RMB polls more frequent.

Yep this was a rushed one, like the last unfortunately, so just the basics in it.

By the way, the Proboards one doesn't work entirely for freeforums (CoC uses Freeforums).

Code:
 


The center align is [div align="center"]insert text[/div] and the horizontal rule is just [hr]. Also the list code uses [li]insert text[/li].


For future reference.
