A couple of days ago, some guys in the channel and myself where talking about a post apoc 'plan' provided zombies and shit started springing up everywhere. And we thought: 'O hai, y nawt do an RP aboot it?' Then we realized Wc3 and WoW where bad mediums to carry it out, and some people don't has Gmod. So, why not a forum RP? ;D I want to try to make this as realistic as possible. Realistic to the point where. Your RPing yourself. You can use a fake name or whatever, but the character should be a complete reprisentation of you in the real world. Like 'Oh shit, zombies. /breakdown' or 'Oh shit, zombies. GOGO PLAN OHIO! /sprint' It's still pretty iffity, but I wanted to see what the people of the forum had to say. ;D |

I say that it sounds pretty cool Wally. However, a few things that would need pointing out. I'm sure as a rp you would want characters to interact, but as far as I know the majority of us don't live near eachother. So what would be the reason for us to come together just as a whole lot'a zombies come charging around the world? No offence, but the people in the clan wouldn't be the first I would turn to during an invasion (Especially since the majority of you don't even live in the same country as me) :P |

See, this is why I post things before I do them. :D For those who dont live here, we could always throw you into a random part of the country. And part of us meeting up is what we talked about. Jersey OotRians would meet up with western Ootrians in Ohio or so, and take it from there. /nod Still just an idea. :D |

It could just be some contest winning or something, something that just happens to put us all in Ohio or somewhere. Maybe something like our clan was the most active on Warcraft, and therefore Blizzard gives us a free trip to its headquaters (ehh forgot where that was), and of course zombies show up, and we all hate blizzard afterwards :D |

That's a horrible plan. And I'm not just saying that. I live in Ohio and know that when the shit hits the fan it's time to make a break for somewhere else. A buddy from Massachussets and I were discussing what would happen if Zombies popped up and what would be the best plan. I still stick to these as my Zombie-end-of-the-world-scenario; Plan A: Get out of Ohio immediately after stocking up on supplies. Scamper via car across the less populated states like Illinois, Montana, Kansas, etc all the way towards the edge of the country. Make a bee line for Alaska and start a settlement with other survivors. Become leader and rule with a despotic iron fist that will put the fear of God in both man and zombie. Plan B: Eat a bullet. I don't know why, but Plan A always seems to grow on me. ;) |

If you go with plan A I know where I'll be staying, :P Off in Nunavut, where I'll have None of it :P (Ok bad attempt at a joke, but oh well.) Seriouly though I would probably hire a boat and sail up to Alert, hopefully no zombies can swim, fly, or survive in the extreme cold. |

I see what your saying Oz. But the plan of Gogo Ohio is to meet up with other people (as previously stated), and pretty much do what you sed, sans the Alaskan voyage and tyranny. Either way. There will be blood. /nod |

...My friend and I made an excellent plan...First news of zombies, we'd raid a Wal-mart of all bullets, 6 guns, and most of the can food in a Bronco and Silverado, Go to my house..fortify the top of my stairs and all windows, go get other people who have guns, take them, raid the gun store and restaurants surrounding my neighborhood, and then live up there until 5 years, then all the zombies would be decomposed and dead...(Or brittle skeletons that can be broken by a baseball bat or crowbar.) Fail-proof plan unless we have an idiot who wants to get in after we fortify and breaks it apart...then we're SOL...That Plan A sounds good except for the fact I live almost oppisite side of the country from Alaska. Maybe go for Florida instead...that way..you can grow oranges to survive on during the apoplyptic zombie invasion those Communist unleash upon us. |

At Warrior: That works. Sorta. But what about the huge mutagenous zombies that are bound to spring up? And I doubt oranges would be around in a post apoc world. At Bossman: L O L I'm so down. For OotR-Con. XP |

You see...A huge zombie can't destroy all of my house...It'd have to have a gaint hammer and be able to dance like M.C. Hammer...Also...Oceana Naval Air Base. Sums it up pretty well. |

Logically speaking the best place to hide in a zombie invasion is a school. In some schools they have only metal doors, which are usually hard to break. As a bonus, desks and chairs make fairly good barricades, or door stoppers. Heaveing a chair at a zombie should take something off it too. For ammunition, pens and pencils work to an extent, and if anything lob a desk at them, or smack them with it(Although I would recommend a chair if anything, doesn't wear you out too fast). As well as having many hallways to escape into, there are many classrooms that you can hide in too, and fire escapes if need be in some. I even hear that some schools in USA have bared windowns, which would deffinetly help. |

You all should read The Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z by Max Brooks, and then rethink your plans. If you headed toward Alaska, you'd have to fight with the rest of the U.S. as they try to escape the zombies. You'd run out of gas, then food. Chances are you'll end up people food, not zombie food. Trying to raid a gun store in a riot situation will get you killed. Also: Why fortify a staircase when you can bust it out? Also, the chances of you surviving by staying in your home in an zombie apocalypse scenario are minimal. As soon as they realize you're up there, they'll trample eachother to the ground and make a zombie-ramp out of the broken bodies straight up to your windows. Schools (especially the ones in the inner city) are indeed prisonlike. Unless you know the school like the back of your hand and its exact specifics, you probably shouldn't hole up in one unless there aren't many zombies. Watching all the doors and windows would require a lot of people. A lot of stressed out, depressed, angry people. Think Lord of the Flies. Oh. And I want to play. :D Edited by Emerik, Sep 23 2008, 06:11 PM.

We should definitely discuss the exact specifics of the zombies we're facing before we start, though. Slow zombies is one story, and Rage Virus-esque ones another completely. If the zombies are giant and wield hammers, then we're flat out fucked. |

I suggest you all take this quiz; http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/425802 Also, Emerik. Traveling to Alaska greatly depends on two factors. Your ability to prepare and your ability to navigate. My assumption is the majority of people in the U.S. would be too busy panicking to come up with a halfway decent plan before getting eaten. Going through the less populated states was supposed to undermine the idea of competing with everybody to get to Alaska. Also, how many crowds of people are going to be in the middle of Nebraska huddled around a gas station? All you need is a sawed-off and a watchful eye and you're fucking golden for Alaska. The biggest problem with my plan, I'd think, is that I'd have to acclimate to the weather and be able to find a place to hunt so I wouldn't starve. If that's all I have to do in order to survive, I'm lucky. |
