Humans VS

Zombies

Disclaimer

• This game is intentional tipped in the zombies favor

• If you are a human and the game seems “unfair” it is supposed to be

• A zombie apocolypse would be hard• However, if the humans do well at

missions they can win perks that will make it more balanced (still not “fair” though)

HvZ Rules & Regulations

Human Rules

• Stunning a Zombie– Humans stun a Zombie for 8 minutes by

blasting them with a dart blaster or throwing a sock at them

– You are not allowed to use the Nerf Gun itself as a melee weapon to be considered as a “stun”

Wearing a Bandana• Humans must wear a Bandana around

their arm visibly to identify them as players of the game at all times

● Failure to abide by this rule will result in disqualification

Work Rules

• You may take off your bandana while you are at work.

• Humans are only Safe At Work not to and from

When tagged by a Zombie

Team!

Zombie Rules

•The Zombie team must wear a bandana around their head at all times

•When stunned, drop your headband around your neck

Tagging• A tag is a firm touch to any physical part of

their body (this includes hair and backpacks). A confirmed tag excludes nerf guns

• After tagging a Human, the Zombie must collect their ID card. Tags must be reported within 2 hours*. Tags are reported on the HVZsource website.

• *This rule is for feeding purposes. If a tag is not reported within 2 hours the human is still dead

Feeding

• Zombies must feed every 48 hours. • A Zombie feeds by reporting their tags on

the HvZ Source Website. • A Zombie may choose two other Zombies

to join in on the feed

Getting Shot

•When shot with a dart blaster or hit with a sock, a Zombie is stunned for 8 minutes. •A stunned Zombie may not interact with the game in anyway–This includes shielding other Zombies

from bullets or continuing to run toward a human

Getting Shot• If a zombie is re-shot while already stunned

the stun time does not restart – Before rejoining the game from being stunned,

you must go into a safe zone, put your bandana back on then join.

• Stunned Zombies may not follow humans and must leave the immediate area of where they were stunned.– You must remove yourself from sight from the

group of humans that you were engaged with and stunned by for the full 8 minutes of your stun

Original Zombie• The Original Zombie (OZ) follows all of the

same rules as a regular Zombie except for a few differences– The OZ becomes infected at 12:01am on Monday,

April, 3rd – They will wear a bandana on their arm, like a

Human, until they are revealed on HVZ Source – The OZ is revealed after they have tagged 3

Humans or at 9pm on Monday, April 3rd at the Mission Briefing.

Non-Players– Blasting non-players with darts or socks is a

BANNABLE OFFENSE. If you are at work, you are considered a non player and you may not interact with the game

– People who are not registered participants may not directly interact with the game. This includes:• Bringing food to Humans• Spying on or for either teams• Blocking tactics

Class Attendance • As a participant of Humans vs. Zombies, you

are required to attend your classes. • If moderators get word you are ditching

class because of game-play, you will be removed from play.

• Professors are aware of game play and have been encouraged to let us know if you have been ditching class!

• Professor have also been given citations to distribute if needed

Faculty Citations • If your game play becomes disruptive to a class

session you are in or if you are late to class a professor can hand you a citation. At the professor's discretion.

• The Professor will write down the time their class ended on the citation and you will have 10 minutes to return the citation to the office of student life

• If you fail to return the citation in time a human will join team zombie and a zombie will starve as a penalty

• If a gray area presents itself we will most likely side with the professor

• For every 10 human citations student life receives we will release 1 faculty alpha zombie.

Faculty alpha zombie • A faculty alpha zombie acts as another OZ but with a

few exceptions– They can not be stunned so there is no point in

shooting them or hitting them with socks– They do not wear a bandana– They can only tag 3 humans and then they starve– They will starve after a certain amount of time

determined by the activities staff. No more than a day.
