The Zombie Apocalypse...

[Terminal Est]

*Laughs!*

I do not even know how to play! Too long, and no special effects, fuck that. XD

[Son of Sephiroth]

Being a Night person also, I'd be good for the night watch.

Oh and we need lights. but we only put them on if we need them or else it'll attract zombies.

[JET73L]

We set up the lights at night, pick of zombies as they're attracted to the light, and then burn the corpes each day (powering a closed-system steam=powered turbine, if someone managed to bring one)

I would load a car (assumedly my parents' car, but I may just hotwire a pickup truck) with my favorite games and systems (and portable television), a radio, a can opener, a laptop comuter, and my cats (two fo them, screw the fish and rodents, though depending on whos stil alive, the size of the cave, and if anyopne here is phobic of snakes, I might bring my mom;s pet python). I would then go to the WalMart, the Hawking electrrical plant, the Rock'N'Sports game store, and the apothecvary, and loot guns, ammunition, food (canned amnd dried in bags), mopre games, consoles, gaming accessories, solar panels, bicycle-powered generator, a set of power cells, lead, more games, saltpeter, nitrate, sulphur, a mortar and pestle, and various medicinal herbs. THis is assuming I have time, and if I don;'t have the opportunity to steal an 18-wheeler, I'll skp the bicycle-powered generator, leave the solar panels for the parts t a water turbine, increase the food, and decrease the games. Maybe bring my big bag of cloth gaameboards, and a few doxzen decks of cards. Maybe steal a couple machetes.

Anyway, if I didn;t have time to do that, I;d grab what I could from the house (books, mayube game boards or portable games), steal or borrow a car, get to the cave, and hope you guys have guns and mid-range weapons. I'll bring what food I can, and work sentry duty sniping sombies with my l337 IRL rifle skills. And assist in the continuation of the species, it's my duty to the human race to make sure there's as wide a range of genes in the gene pool as possible. (By the way, terminal, you do look great in the post apocalyptic rags of combat fatigues, and the zombie guts spalattered across ytour shirt really accent yor eyes )

YEESH! and here i thought I was prepared.

I'll scout out new Zombie free territory. Ill try to find a hot-sping while Im at it... just because its the end of the world doesn't mean we need to smell like zombie-guts.

. . .i never thought i would see others use that sort of language in this forums. . .there is always a first time for everything, though (im an exception to that rule). . .

. . .i guess i might as well contribute something. . .i'll bring. . .armored battle suits. . .if zombies should ever get close to us, they wont infect us with their bite. . .i will also bring a cloaking system to conceal our position, and an odor neutralizer to keep them from smelling us and us from smelling each other. . .i'll bring soccer balls to help us stay fit for battle. . .and keep the world's best sport alive. . .i'll bring an infinite amount of paper, pencils, and color pencils to draw stuff and thus keep humanity's creativity alive. . .i'll bring the lord of the rings books to keep fantasy literature alive. . .i'll will always train a group of ppl to go w/ me on raids against the zombies. . .using swords, spears, shields, and war horses. . .

. . . and i PROMISE to help maintain a high morale and sense of justice, cooperative spirit, and freedom. . .

. . .in my mind, terminal is starting to look alot like one of these:

I think about this ALL THE TIME.

@Sularis: Armored suits! I never thought of that! We wouldn;t even need anything really high-tech, just some bits of metal cut and bent in the right shapes and stitched together with high-tensile wire. Even chainmail might work, but splaetter could get through if you had a cut under the chainmail. If there were blades attached, like Shredder's costume from the Ninja Turtles movie, we could just walk through a horde of zombies, and their limbs would just drop off as they tried to attack us (have to be really, really careful about cleaning the armor, maybe with a torch, and never go out without a face shield). Then we could just burn the corpses anyway, since they would all either be immobilized or disconnected from the brain. Your body armor idea was most excellent, I don;t know why it hasn;t become part of mainstream zombie games/literature, aside from the unnecessary advantage.

Charmed indeed. *Curtsies in a bloody mess.*

Now then, you are quite prepared I must say...we have weapons of course, but we can always use more.

As well, as the venerable Peter from Dawn of the Dead suggested and was proven correct...It ain't just those ...things we gots to worry about...

Anyone is welcome within the hideout, providing of course, that they come with no ill intent. Many people will see this as a great opportunity to wreak chaos, and we must defend ourselves against such people, as well as the zombies.

Now that is quite a list JET, and I certainly like all the games idea...bring survival horror games...

Sularus, those are some fantastic ideas...you would be like the chronicler of the past world, by keeping some of humanity's greatest works in good condition, such as LotR. Let us not forget the hotness that is Sean Bean!

Armoured suits. I always wondered why nobody had ever thought of that before. If this were to occur for real, you can bet I would don a suit of armour of some kind for protection, including chainmail for the harder areas to cover, and a full helmet. We might be slow, but at least safe.

Here are some interesting classic zombie facts from Dr. Frankanstein who managed to tame a zombie called ''Bub'', it may help us.

-Zombies locate humans with their sensory organs, but this may vary from zombie to zombie. Some are more decomposed, and others are physically damaged.
But for the most part, they can see, hear and smell, although these senses are not anymore developed during zombiewood than they were as humans, and so, sometimes they are even less effective. However, their motorized instinct guides them, and what little of the brain is not used for the purpose of yearning, motivation and execution is used as memory along the seek and destroy purpose of hearing, smelling and sight.
The zombie may vaguely remember its past life, or at the very least, significant elements which made the core of it. They shall often go back there, and can, with a certain degree, know where people would hide, or have hidden, due to familiarity.
They are usually stupid creatures, however like a lost dog, can easily make its way back home, so to speak.

As well, it has been suggested that a zombie in a severe case of decomposition or physical damage will have its sensory faculties replaced by the ability to feel vibrations of footsteps and voices.

And, as is much known today, to be stopped, their brains must be destroyed. This is the only way, however, fire is another good way, but can be hazardous to all in the end.

Should anyone wish some practice for the mood, I have found this...

On that subject, i'll go raid the movie stores and libraries. This'll be Easy, can't be many academic zombies.

*bows down*

. . .anything to help. . .

. . .on the armor subject, its just common sense. . .nothing special. . .on books, zotar had the better idea. . .however, i do offer my help in creating and designing specialize armor and weaponry to deal w/ the zombies. . .

. . .hmmm. . .i think i'll be like one of those predators. . .hunting zombies (and zombie dogs, cows, crows, and any other infected life forms) sounds like fun. . .

. . .i will organize some ppl to keep trouble makers in check. . .at the clear risk of becoming dictators in the process, but what's life w/out risks?. . .

. . .i shall also take it upon my self to chronicle the history of the world from the faithful day upon which humanity nearly dies out, to the time we rise again. . .or finally become extint. . .

. . .may i also suggest creating a network of tunels that we may use to transport necessary items from place to place and help us slowly gain control of cities. . .or find new spots for building others. . .

. . .i will also post plenty of smilies in our dwellings so that ppl dont forget to smile in dark times. . .

armour should be tight fitting and designed in a sequence of slanted plates (like samurai armour) to not necessarily stop an attack, but instead not allow a zombie to get any purchase on a person. hair should be tied up or cut short, and the armour HAS to be light. our greatest strength after our intelligence is our maneouvaribility. we sacrafice that and we'll lose.

also, no ies for the plates of any kind should be exposed, lest a zombie catch them.

side thought: we'd need a rota for who'd do which duties when so people didn't become too tired from night watches/ gathering too often etc. plus switching it up ensure we don't get bored which is a suprisingly dangerous thing.

Though I'm sure we can find ways to amuse ourselves, can't we?
