Hello, Survivors!
Thanks to the efforts of Ray (who writes for Alonzo Blazevic), we have a new and improved manifest that better fits the needs of our particular sim.
We're organized by families and those who are single are listed under 'The Unattached'. If your situation changes and you become part of someone's family, then we'll switch you around.
Suffixes:
========
Military designations are no longer going to be shown on the manifest and you'll see that they've been removed for you -- we're doing that for two reasons. One, it's no longer a part of our reality and two,…

Congratulations, Survivors!
We started our first episode, Bangor or Bust, Saturday, 15 April 2023. Tomorrow, nearly a year later, we will finally finish it. For those who like stats, we have, as a group, written 332 posts for this episode, 34 of them in the past month. And now, nearly a year later, its time to move on. There will be a short post tomorrow explaining what happens to the safe zone and after that, Bangor or Bust will be closed for posting and we'll be moving into the new episode (I'm thinking about "Winter is Coming" as a title).…

Hello, Survivors,
Been having a couple days of good weather here, sort of like the first promise of Spring, and its been lovely. Also, Watson, my cat, discovered Cat TV (its a YouTube channel) and he loves it. For a cat who absolutely refuses to go anywhere near the outside world, he's been mighty brave swatting at those birds.
Sim Statistics
No changes in the number of writers this month so we're still holding at eight. We are losing a couple of NPCs though -- Courtney, Jordan, Father Dominic I believe. Not sure about Bao (been quiet since the delivery)…

Hello, Survivors,
Okay, its been an embarrassingly long time since I've done this so, let me start by offering my profound apologies. Had a bit of a Star Trek sim burnout going on and a lot of things fell by the wayside. Things are better now and I'm totally back.
Sim Statistics
We added two survivors, Stephen Wolff and Reuben Baptiste. That brought us up to nine writers. Course, Stephen dropped out again so we have added one new writer -- which means two service dogs and three military personnel. The world has never seemed safer, eh?
You know, we…

Posted on Thu Feb 26th, 2026 @ 12:01am by Survivor René Rouen & Council Member Vienna Quinn
René walked with Vienna through the fields of the Homestead. He was thankful for the warm fall day. It was a great day for a picnic and he wanted everything to be perfect today. He glanced at Vienna and gave a gentle squeeze of her hand as they walked to the far corner of the property just above the stream. "You look stunning. I am glad to have a private moment to wish you happy birthday.”
“Thank you” Vienna smiled warmly. “I wanted this to be a special time with you, you have just had your birthday too and I…

Posted on Wed Feb 25th, 2026 @ 11:59pm by Survivor René Rouen & Council Member Henri Rouen & Survivor Chloe Rouen
René was just returning from wood cutting work detail when he spotted his grandfather and sister on the back porch. He wondered how they were go take the news of him wanting to ask Vienna to marry him. He figured he should talk to them now while nobody else was around. He climbed the porch steps and greeted them. "Bonjour Grand-pere, Chloé."
Henri turned to his grandson and smiled. "Bonjour René. How was your afternoon as a lumberjack?"
Chloé nodded as she looked up from shelling the last of the peas from the garden for Kimberley. "hello."
René nervously glanced…

Joshua and Carmen dragged Axes into the two wheelbarrows and pushed them to join the group by the barn.
Carmen looked at the trees. It was getting colder and they would need the wood soon enough. So cutting the trees now would mean they could dry it out in time.
René stepped out of the barn and trotted over to where Joshua and Carmen stood near the tree line. He slowed to a walk as he finished approaching. "Bonjour Monsieur MacCallan, Mademoiselle Harris."
A few moments later Roman came from around the corner, Seeing Rene, Joshua and Carmen he approached…

==Fort Mason, Ruined Building==
Elliot, sat in silence in one of the run down buildings on Fort Mason island. Around him 4 others were huddled. They were prisoners and they all knew it. To his left was Lisa, she was 12. Then Mateo, he said he was 11, too scared to lie about that. Then Hannah who was 9 and then the eldest in the group Jordanna, 16.
They were told to consider themselves 'guests', which was so not the case. They and other children were rotated around between island, mainland and boats. They were never sure where they were…

Serena took a break from checking on things and with PJ strapped to her chest, she set out to find her husband and TJ.
She found them easily enough. "Gentlemen" she said brightly holding out two Thermos of coffee.
TJ was just shooting the breeze with Tim when Serena came up with Patrick and two Thermos of coffee. "Hi Doc! and thank you!" He said as he readily accepted the Thermos of coffee. he took a sip, "Oh so good and it is hofamily!
"That's a good thing." their coffee stores were pretty full for now.

Posted on Mon Jun 23rd, 2025 @ 8:33am by New York Survivor Amythyst
Evening
I’m writing this by flashlight, tucked up in the attic room of the farmhouse, where the roof creaks when the wind shifts. The others are asleep — or pretending to be. I think Patrick is still whispering with Andrew, but I don’t have the energy to check. My back hurts, my knees are sore, and I smell like cow. Which, weirdly, isn’t the worst thing anymore. I will grab a shower soon.
We found cattle today. Actual, real, living cows. In the woods.
Three of them — two big and one calf, all half-wild but not dangerous. They were…

**Journal Entry – September 30th, 2010**
*Location: Homestead Kitchen, Late Evening*
*Writer: Serena Reynolds, M.D.*

The sun has set, and the quiet is settling into the walls — or as quiet as it ever gets with this many people under one roof. The fire in the hearth is down to glowing coals. Dinner’s been cleaned up. Most of us are asleep, and the rest are pretending to be. I should be too. But sleep feels like a fragile thing lately. Like if I let myself slip too deep, I might miss something vital.
We had our first full…

Definitely official, even if Sandwich will not admit it. He has an attachment for Thea. At the evening meal and campfire meeting I caught him dividing his plate in half and giving Thea the the half he separated. He then ate half of his portion and feed Kenny the other half. I plan to say something to him, I'll offer to feed Kenny half my food share if he insist on giving Thea half of his food share. I am amazed how he treats Thea, almost like our mother, or us girls. He also seems…

Reuben talked with Catalina when she had joined with him in helping the group. During the stops for the evening on the way to Hale's property Catalina filled him in on how the ranch and family were doing. Apparently their father was quick to realize the situation and started the process of fortifying the ranch, He had the hands bring the cattle in closer for the rest of the year and would decide in mid spring what to do about how to safely graze them. He and the hands also began working on the barb wire around the ranch.

Well found Sandwich, he deviated from his emergency escape route and hookup with a group of survivors. Not sure about the group but they appear to be decent folks. The leader, Hale Stratton, is very similar to Sandwich; dark, brooding and all military. I suspect there is more under the man other than being a Major in the Rangers. I cannot quite sure what it is yet; but never mind that. Sandwich has decided to continue travelling with the group, so I am tagging along as well. He states he will decide what to do…
