Welcome, Veterans and newcomers! This is the reconstruction of The Zombie Survival Club.
First off, I'll introduce you to some of our staff.
-SkaterKidWhoPwns- This is the guy who is my 2nd in command. If you cannot get to me, go to him and he'll answer questions/comments/concerns.
...We have no other staff? Well then.
READ THE RULES. IF YOU DO NOT IT'S LIKELY YOU'RE NOT GETTING IN.
1. Do not ask "Can I join?" or any other variation of that comment. (instructions on how to join will come soon)
2. Do not make a "Scenario" (will be explained later) unless you are a member.
3. Don't be stupid, use logic and think as if you were in the actual situation. OF course it's unlikely that it will happen, but we ask that all visitors and members be serious and literate.
4. Do not question mod or my/skater's authority (unless a mod directly opposes it)
5. No overly smart-*ss comments against other members, visitors, or your superiors.
6. Do not make a Virus until you are a member. The sheet for making a virus will be given to you upon asking me or skater.
7. DO NOT. ABSOLUTELY NOT, ASK "CAN I JOIN?". I cannot stress this enough.
Now that all the rules are over with, I'll go over some Jargons (slang terms relating to "work" that we use here.
Scenario - This is a term we use for a situation that is meant to test the user (as well as give you something to do). These are non-linear, and are generally Hypotheticals. Any MEMBER can make a scenario. Scenarios are generally matched with a previous story/situation and they give the supplies you have on hand. As well as the supplies near you. There's also generally a map that goes with it.
Virus, Parasite, Infection - These are the general types of a zombie virus. If there is not a previous virus that is mentioned before a virus or a plan, it is automatically changed to the current dominant virus (Goliath). Goliath will be explained later in the OP.
Zed - Is the common nickname for Zombie. I.E. "Yo dude I just shot up some Zeds!" Or: "Gah! That d**n ZED bit me!"
Well that's it for the terminology! Here's the dominant virus. It's gone through plenty of tweaking, and I think it's pretty much the most realistic virus in the club (aside from hungers). If no other virus is specified before a Scenario or a plan, this is the virus to be used.
Name - Goliath Syndrome
Type - Parasite
Speed - Leisurely walking speed (2-4 MPH)
Sounds - A mild groan, much like a man/woman in pain. No screaming comes from the virus.
Infection - Infection comes from the cells. If so much as a skin cell gets into you, you'll be quickly infected (aprox. 10-160 minutes, depending on strength and immune system of the user). It contracts a lot like AIDS, but it can be ANY cell, be it secretion or meat.
Hunting - It hunts by smell and hearing. It can't see that well, but strong light in the dark will attract it. Best time to attack one is in the daytime. They can't see in detail but they can see blurry instances of light, I.E., a fire or a flashlight.
Other - Cannot swim. Cannot fly, cannot run, cannot climb.
Believability Factor - Goliath was made in a lab (Codename: Anthemia, which is a prototype of the virus. Can also be used for begginers). It hyper-evolved and infected a rat. THe rat got out and began to infect humans (as well as certain birds, causing the infection to be worldwide). What the parasite does is: It enters the body as an infected cell. From there, it infects all the other cells, coating them in a secretion that fends off any form of decomposer (In short, it makes the immune system of the host really powerful). Then, it randomly selects a cell in the body (it is generally a cell in the torso). It grows to about the size of a human heart. IT then crawls it's way into the brain. IT preforms a lobotomy and hooks into the brain, feeding it with a steady flow of required nutrients and oxygen. It shuts down all other systems besides the lungs and flushes out the blood in the body (the parasite provides the necessities for living brain), and spreads long, muscular tentacles across the zombie's body, becoming a puppeteer. The parasite feeds by slowly eating the host. IT'll take a couple of decades in order for the parasite to starve/suffocate.
Best ways to kill it - A shot to the head, killing either the parasite or the brain. A punctured lung will also kill it, but it'd take a couple of minutes for it to actually die.
How to become a member
First off, you need to make a plan. You have everything you would at home. IT would happen the moment you are typing up the answer. So if it happens at night, then it happened at night, happened at day, it happened at day. For the sake of not-cheating, we'll use AG time.
Then, you have to answer a Scenario. The Scenarios come every couple of pages.
Wait for Both the Plan and the Scenario to be graded. Each member has their own form of grading. Once it's been passed around me and Skater will figure out whether or not to let you in.
If you are not initially let in, do not be disheartened! You have unlimited tries to enter, and all members (should) give you tips to get a better plan.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why the hell am I doing this?
Reasons vary. Some people in the club do think the Zompocolypse would actually happen, and some people (like myself) do it for fun and practice for writing. Others do it because they just like killing and surviving zombies, while keeping it pretty realistic.
Can I make a Virus?
Sure, if you give me a comment on my page I'll be happy to give you the layout for the virus.
Can I Join?
Scroll up and read the OP. Do it.
Can I make a Scenario?
If you are a member, sure. Just make sure it's somewhat realistic. There are no real parameters for it, it just has to be a situation. Try and make it hard, too.
I think that's pretty much it! There are a couple of tiddly bits for you guys, though:
Titles/Ranks - A title or a "rank" will be given to you if you do something outstandingly awesome, stupid, weird, or just plain out there while still keeping it realistic. For a list of the ranks/titles, visit my page.
Members - A list of the members can be found on either my, or skater's page.
Discussion - Discussions will be held every now and again, as a stand-in for a Scenario. There will be a topic in BOLD (BOLD, MEMBERS) to let you know what the Discussion is about.
and that is pretty much it.
Now then, have fun everyone!

Have fun when this actually happens and theres no gas for your stinkin gas guzzlers while im zooming by watching your *** get eaten by zombies (and your brains too)
*facepalm* and where would you find a viable power source???
i know where all the weapons at my dads house are unless he took them all with him when he fled (but we have like 10) also at my house i have a handgun i dont know what kind i meant if a zombie got in my house while i was getting the gun, i would use tomahawk and knife.
nice job, now have fun pumping the hell of some hand generator while a hoard of undead chase your b**** a**.
I live on the second floor of an apartment building in Ontario, Canada. First thing I would do after hearing about the zombies is clean my bathtub, then start filling it up with water. That should last me a while. I'll fill all sinks, cups, containers with water. Normally food lasts my dad and I a week or two. We'll eat the cats sooner or later though. We'll barricade the door and peek out the window for survivors. If we spot some and the coast is clear, one of us would go on the balcony and tell them to come over. We would try to open the garage door that leads to the huge garage. (opened by a little button on my dad's keychain + hoping the power still works.) If it doesn't we would have to go down to the lobby to open the door. (Peek out the peephole on the door before heading out.) Considering a disease like Solanum comes out, we'll be pretty safe thanks to stairs and the fact that basically 2-3 people can fit in the stair case side by side, stairs are our biggest defense. When food/water runs out, I'll probably already have a plan. (one of them is to try to get to one of those highway rest stops, they have many vending machines that I doubt people would go for.) For defense we have a baseball bat, a large kitchen knife, one of those meat pounding mallets, and two swiss army knifes (one small (one blade) one large (2 blades, saw). The swiss army knifes are mostly for utility. I'm hoping to survive for atleast 1 1/2 months
I forgot to mention something. I mentioned where I live because Solanum zombies are supposed to "freeze" or something like that in the winter.
Make a legitimate, realistic plan. I or any other member will criticize it for any bad points, and eventually if it's good enough you canz join.
my god i got tired of reading after page 30 so can some one tell me the scenario
Well then..
Im typing this up and on the news I hear about the zombie outbreak.
First things first, get off Armorgames.
I would go straight to my kitchen and grab a buck knife that I have there. It is very very sharp and can be of some use. I would also take the meat cleaver we have. I would check my doors and windows and lock the garage. Also my car is inside there.
My location is Houston Texas.
My living room has furniture and a door that leads to the back yard. I would take the medium sofa and place it against the door. The large sofa I would use for the front door. The small sofa I would use for a window near the front door. I would take the mattresses and put them also up against windows in case. I have just built a small place to hide for a couple hours until I can gather everything up. My mother and Father and small brother are here also, but are they infected?
I have the 2 knifes on my person. I have a school back pack and I can pack it up with 6 cans of tuna, Unsalted Crackers, Pb'j, 2 water bottles on the outside pockets, 2 more inside, I would go in my garage and get thin rope, a hammer, and a box of latex gloves, I would also take a wooden broom stick.
I would tie the rope on my backpack so the rope wont fall off. Not tied around but secured onto the bag. I would sharpen the broom stick into a spear like weapon, 300 anyone?
Check this plan out and then I maybe can write up the rest? :P
My mother and Father and small brother are here also, but are they infected?
Assume they are dead, gone or infected, like say you were home alone when it happened.
You have any pets?
I would sharpen the broom stick into a spear like weapon, 300 anyone?
Terrible idea. might as well save the wood and use it as a blunt weapon. Not only will it have low penetration, but it will be easily breakable, is probably hard to hold onto firmly (as in smooth and straight), and has no other uses.
The other part: If you're planning on leaving, why are you barricading the house so much? Blocking the doors are fine, but as long as you aren't running anything especially loud (i.e music, power tools, cars, etc.), save yourself the time. The sooner you leave, the more supplies you have and the less advanced the outbreak is*.
*If the outbreak in your area is already very advanced, disregard all of that.
Other than that... continue your plan, no notable flaws.
my god i got tired of reading after page 30 so can some one tell me the scenario
There was one not too far back, but just base it off your basic survival plan (from home), as i am too lazy also.
No sir I do not have any pets. How about I cut the wood in half and store it in the bag, maybe for later? No loud music and I barricaded the house just incase zeds don't run in on me.
The broom itself is useless. A crowbar is both smaller and more deadly/useful.
And as long as you don't take too long, save your time and don't do windows. A zombie generally isn't smart enough to go into a random window with no reason
Continue your plan.
A crowbar is both smaller and more deadly/useful.
Sorry to break it to you guys. But unless you have a sizeable bugout bag in your house right now, you're pretty cuss out of luck. Even so, the only truly helpful items against zombies would be firearms. And I'm assuming that practically no one here is old enough to own one (but there are probably a few exceptions).

No sh*t. If there is no law, who cares if you steal your parent's gun or find one? That's right nobody. Now unless you have something productive to say I suggest you gtfo with your irrelevant sh*t, captain Hindsight.
