While it certainly would be easier on us, we don't know what kept them from logging in to research, or being here for the battle. . . . <snip>

Franklin and Andrew-Jackson have been MIA since Z-Day¹. The same can be said for our resident Mod although he did RAC a few years ago. I thanked him which may have been a mistake since he's never done it again.

Inactive players are not really the issue. It is those that counter what the region wants to do. If the region decides to research cure and a player or two (more would be better) were to fire cure missiles, that is normally all that is needed. Some trouble maker would mess that all up by killing/promoting zombies. Those are the ones that need to be given the boot. Having a password in place would be required if those that can boot bad players cannot watch the borders. Problem is, there is no cure for dead.

I prevent that from happening each year when I place my own password on the region several days in advance. We never have dead because CrossVegas gets here and keeps up a steady fire of cure missiles for the first couple of hours alone until backups arrive. I feel it's pretty tedious for him when some nations don't even login and so their infection numbers sky rocket. If all of us, or even 70% of us, RAC, the numbers go down and it's easier.
