Putting "lemur *insert word here" seems to have a good chance of putting you in Madagascar to start. Out of 10 tries, 7 times I wound up there, with the other 3 times being when I'd started the previous game there. Maybe something to do with infecting the world except for them?

Good premise, great potential, but there needs to be more element of strategy. This is largely luck. Do natural disasters have any effect on transmission, or are they there for flavor?

Finally ! Started in Russia, infected every part of the world except Madagascar, then it closed its shipyard and I though all hopes were gone, but I wanted to finish the game anyway so that I could complete the "Kill 1,000,000 humans on 'relaxed' mode" challenge, then 5 minutes later (I was on speed 3) someone in Madagascar was infected even though there was no way in ! YAY !
Now I killed everyone on earth but still it says nothing about the challenge nor the badge... am I missing something? (T_T)

My disease is invisible, has no symptoms and countries are shutting down everything. It doesnt make sense. On the plus side a vaccine failed and the disease mutated. :)

A virus or parasite that wipes out the entire world population isn't a very good one... How is it going to survive after everyone is dead?

OMG I tried it a lot of times, never managed to infect madagascar.. the first time I did, Brazil's the only one that shut me down ;_;

One thing that would help, would be that if the three stats (lethality, infectivity, visibility) were listed as numbers, and when looking to select a disease, it listed how it would affect all of them more specifically. This way you could actually see how the different disease types changed the game.
