* ANONYMOUS ASKED : was in the tags and found this group and saw its revamp reason, wanted to say that it’s inspiring how serious you guys are about anti - zionism !! huge kudos to you, good luck on your revamp !
aw, nonnie, thank you so much ! i strongly believe anti - zionist and pro - palestine views are something we have to be vocal about and do it seriously, so i’m glad this revamp had such a positive response. and i know this won’t change palestine’s reality, it won’t ease their suffering or stop israel’s brutality. still, i think we have to stand with our beliefs and values even if no one is watching, even if it won’t change a thing due to our insignificance in the grand scheme of things. i’ll do it anyway, always, because that’s how i learned to live my life. again, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this message. it means a lot.

and i bring you a somehow small summary to let you know what we’ve changed, my most beloveds !
of course, and as you can notice at first sight, our NAME, color palette, and graphics images have changed, and all our links and TAGS have been modified to fit this. we also applied the name change to our most wanted + promo sideblogs. please, let us know if anything makes it hard for you to see / read or if there are any broken links.
we made a few modifications to our PLOT which are that the outbreak didn’t happen in september of 2013 but in march of 2011 instead, the location is still boulder and the setting went from the university of eastern colorado to the ( very real, existent ) university of colorado, although we’re not using images of said alma mater, you can always look it up to find inspiration if needed.
we added NEW LORE !!! and i think this is our biggest change, it includes information on the virus and the infected we’re going with from now on.
some of our locations such as the bar, the library, and the hospital have been renamed.
since the sanctuary is located in the university of colorado now, we’re not bighorns anymore, but buffalos, and our mascot is called chip ! this required small changes here and there ( our applications, locations’ descriptions, follow posts ... ) you may or may not notice. if you don’t, don’t worry, though, it is not truly relevant !
and ... i think that’d be all ! as we said, the changes are little and don’t affect the current events the group’s going through, not really, and despite you knowing the new lore is important for context, our plot doesn’t rely heavily on it, but on the threats the sanctuary keeps facing ( even though that can always change, hehe ) .
we hope you cherish these changes as much as we do, and as usual, any doubts, suggestions, corrections, constructive criticism, and questions are very, very appreciated — please, let us know what you think !!!
you can read the reasons behind this revamp here and check our answered questions and posts related to the change here ( tw: zionism and its associated content ) .
* ANONYMOUS ASKED : hi there ! I am in the group and read the everyone message and I am confused. Where was tlou based on Zionist invasion ? There is nothing in the game about Israel / Palestine at all.
oh, i realized i may have misused the word “ based ” in the discord announcement. what i meant was that tlou is inspired by the invasion and neil druckmann has said it himself. you can find anything related to this by googling “ neil druckmann zionist ” , even screenshots of the ( now deleted ) tweet that let us know he supports israel’s invasion on palestine lands. nonetheless, under the cut, i’ll leave you some links for you ( and anyone interested ) to check !
israeli politics in tlou 2.
here in paragraph twenty five ( 25 ) you can read how he shares ellie’s darkness was inspired by the 2000 ramallah lynching. you can also find it by ctrl + f the word “ formulation ”.
here you can find a quicker approach to the quote i addressed in the point above.
here you have the tweet ss, altho you’ll need a reddit account to see the full article.
here is an ig post in which he shows his support for israel + more info in the op’s comment.
evidence he donated to both israeli and palestinian forces, which would be fair if this was a conflict, but it’s not. israel invaded palestine and imprisoned, violated, and killed its people to secure their position in a land that did not ( and still does not ) belong to them.
here is the full list of celebrities asking for the release of hostages taken by hamas. neil is among them.
here is more about neil’s inspiration + naughty dog’s jewish origins ( which aren’t inherently bad, i’m just giving it for context. our changes aren’t based on anti - semitism but anti - zionism ) .
neil talking about his inspiration for dina from tlou 2 and i link this because it’s interesting to read about his inspiration, which is valid and very tied with his religion and spirituality, something i deeply cherish. but you can also read several times how he considers israel’s invasion an actual “ conflict ” between israel and palestine and how it’s about “ perspective ”. when it’s not.
you can find all of this and more by, as i said in the beginning, googling “ neil druckmann zionist ” , so i hope this clarifies any of your doubts, my nonnie member !
* ANONYMOUS ASKED : would new people need to wait to apply until after the revamp ?
hmmm . honestly i don’t think so ??? i mean it doesn’t make me uncomfortable to keep things running while we work on the revamp, but i have to consult it with admin nina to know what she thinks. i’ll update this answer when she wakes up ! heheh.
* ANONYMOUS ASKED : the left 4 dead franchise ( left 4 dead 1 & 2 and back 4 blood ) has some cool zombie lore / names you could use for inspo !!
dude this is so good ? omg im in awe, the lore is amazing and it already gave me a lot of ideas from the little i read !!! thank you so much for the suggestion, my lovely anon, fr it’s been immensely useful and i’ve read only the basics. can’t imagine how it’ll be after i devour as much as i’m able to. again, thank you so, so much for this !

TO DO LIST !
ok, on opinions and advice, i’m going to be revamping elliot’s blog! it’s going to be a continuous effort that will probably never end because it includes tagging a year’s worth of rp posts.
implementing verses; back-tagging all posts for my main verse
number-tagging threads; back-tagging most regular interactions
re-formatting pages to reflect the implementation of verses
iconing the back half of season two (i have so much to icon..)
continuing to post birthday-related starters bc good shit
