This is a completely serious club, people who make a decent enough plan will be able to comment and review other plans. Here is some zombie info.

run/walk: they walk

scream/groan: they groan

day/night: All da time babey!

what they attack: EVERYTHING THEY HEAR, OR THAT MOVES!

survivors: very very little, like near 100-1000 people on EARTH

guns: This is real time, being your neighboorhood and everything, you have all the resources you have in your house.

cure: there is none.

where to go: so long as you have a plan to get their, go for it.

how much you can carry: AGAIN, THIS IS REAL TIME

family members: theres a high chance they are zombehs too.
able to join: if you didn't read, just make a good plan.

durability: they can take ALOT of damage, worse than playing last stand 2 with just a pistol for the entire game when the zombies have twice as much life.

doors: they can't work a doorhandle for the mostpart of their brain is already rotted
I am still making my plan right now, but I think some of you can do it. Let the zombie surviving begin!

Ooh, just found the fourm and am eager to join.

After watching my sister die and kill both the zombies with a sharp pencil to the face for about two minutes, I think of a plan.

Find the pistol in my neighbor's house. I heard moans in there, but I do have a knife that, if I'm careful, could kill the guy. Aqquire some of his guns, he might still have his rifle he bragged about. Take it. Go to Tom's convinence store, might either be a survivor or a zombie. Supplies nevertheless. Travel to PC (medium sized supermarket) and get extra supplies and maybe a few flammable chemicals to build a flamethrower later. See if Dillon's still alive. See if the school has any survivors. If not, take keys from office and use the car to drive to my father's apartment to check if he's still alive. Either way, drive to U of O. Probably some survivors there. Drive all the way to the hospital and take the huge machete and the defib. Hold out at dad's apartment. If the zombies break in, machete.

Honestly on that factor, if i knew they were zombies it'd be no problem killing them, but if its family, then honestly, even I would have problems pulling the trigger.


In this case they weren't, as they were separated between zombies and inhabitants.

I wouldn't have any problem shooting them all if they directly endangered my survival.

Except those who have no idea. It's very wrong and dishonest to involve those who are ignorant of what has taken place. Only the people who were endangering me.

Even still, not something to pride yourself on.

Melee = bad idea
Schools and markets = death
Guns = Not there
You = dead

That's my review. You need to think outside the box. Think more along the lines of disaster survival than zombie survival. Killing zombies isn't the only thing you need to do. You need to get out of the city, that's where looters as well as zombies will be. You need to get as far away from people as possible. Remember, survivors are unlikely, and if there are, they'll probably kill you.

As for zombies: Goliaths, the default zombie, flamethrowers will not work. It's like trying to light a dead raccoon on fire (trust me, I did it. It was hysterical xD). You aren't getting more than skin deep, and you need to roast the thing to ashes. It's a parasite that controls it, and it's in the brain.

And flamethrowers will not last longer than 30 seconds total.

Melee weapons tend to be incapable of killing the parasite as well, being slow and weak.

I'm not in the Goliath region, I'm with the slower, weaker zombies.

My neighbor sleeps more then he lives. He has guns. He's a hunter.
School has about 200 people. With guns could search fairly well.
Remember, survivors are unlikely, and if there are, they'll probably kill you.

At the time of my plan I don't know how out of control it's gotten. I'm just plain guessing at this point.
[quote]You need to get out of the city, that's where looters as well as zombies will be.[quote]
I live in a neighborhood. A small one. Also, adding to plan.

At the U of O, use computers to see if there are any evac centers. Use car to drive, don't worry about sleep. If none, drive to Idaho in a small town and hold off there until there are any evac plans.

Still, you have to think Realisticly. Your forgetting its not just the Goliath Zombies that are hostile towards you, ANYONE who is trying to get supplies and is not very close to you, will try to kill you for supplies. I've served in military, and I've been to Haiti during the war there for 5 years of Service (obviously before the Earthqauke.) And for one thing that needs to be noted, As it has been said before, if you have never ever killed a person in your life, let alone kill a animal with a intelligence higher then a Mosquitoe, then you will go insane. I had to go into PTSD courses after my tour in Haiti for 2 years before I recovered, and I was a trained military personel. So think about it. Not only that, you won't have anyone to back you up. Not only that, the electrical plants will be shut down due to the outbreak. There will be NO Electricity whatsoever. So the computer plan is failed. And even if there was a battery you could get off some car and enough wire you could splice, Who's going to answer your replies, and who says the government will let you be evacuated? they will probably let higher class citzens go and let you die on the streets. Use your head. Im tired of these replies with the same old strategies. Sorry to be rash, but im tired of it.

Now im not speaking of HAiti anymore. You hear enough of it on the news, and im considered a Monster now since this earthqauke happened, as all Dominican Military are now. and Im tired of it. I even helped refugee's get across the border in my fishing trawler, and im still branded as such. So im not in a relatively good mood.

Now then. now since we are considering the old Monk scenario presumed dead, I will start a new one. But its specific.

You are on a rocky Beach with a small hamlet nearby, only like 30 people supposedly live there. You have a backpack, 2 sets of clothes (jeans, Jacket, T shirt, long shirt, Jeans) The Zombie type is something close to a RAGE virus ( the ones where they run but take damage normally as normal people do, Human rabies so to say.) You are armed with a Shovel. However, you see gunfire, and it sounds like a hunting rifle, and you also see 8 Rage zombies come running out after 3 people, one armed with a hunting rifle, one armed with a pistol, and one armed with a Harpoon. They manage to hack through the zombies, and then 9 more come. They are atop of a Rocky Outcrop, and there is 4 buildings in it, all in a Sqaure pattern to each other, 3 Meduim sized cabins, 1 a Tool shack. What do you do with the sitaution?

There will be NO Electricity whatsoever. So the computer plan is failed.


You know, if you have a laptop, they sell solar powered battery chargers for AA,AAA, and laptop batteries in survival shops. (I found mine on Undeadreport) You could easily just set it up in a window, or outside and guard it and it'll be charged in about 5 hours (Charged enough for a good use. It'll take a long time to fully charge it.)

I given up on plan.

Sorry, but I believe you have to make a plan, and answer a scenario to join. And you have to be a member to make scenarios. It's no that hard, when you really REALLY think. Just take into account everything in your house, everything in your neighborhood, then go up to city, county, state, country, and so on. That's what I did, but my plan stopped at state because I had found a decent place. Ask for help with it if you need it, I'll be glad to give you some questions to ask yourself. "How many supplies do I have, what weapons do I have, where can I go, who do I take?" etc.

@Comrade

Okay, so assuming the new group has seen them, but not me, I'd try to sneak around them (as fast as I could without being spotted) to get to the tool shed. I'd search it for anything that could be used as a weapon that would be better than my shovel. An axe, a gun, a pitchfork. Then, I'd join the group and attempt to establish a defendable position. One of the buildings, preferably. Or, we could just run like hell. Both seem to work fine in most cases.

There are no slower weaker zombies. Goliaths are the zombies. Unless stated from one of the other one's, found here.

Most of them make up in one area for loss in another. They'll all kill you one way or another.

At the time of my plan I don't know how out of control it's gotten. I'm just plain guessing at this point.


It's bad. Really bad. 95% of the population now wants you for dinner. You don't want to become dinner.

School has about 200 people. With guns could search fairly well


You have to reload, no? When you reload, you die. That simple. Do NOT search anywhere that more than 20 people inhabit constantly. Unless you absolutely have to. In which case, you are going to die anyways.

My neighbor sleeps more then he lives. He has guns. He's a hunter.


He would be long gone. With his guns.

Think of your survival as a very last minute thing. Like really late.

I given up on plan.

Make your plan first. THINK. Thinking is good for you. That is why this club is good for you. It makes you think.

Reinvent your plan. It's what I did, and now I'm telling you to. Which is what you should do.

I'll give some tips:

- Stay away from anywhere semi-populated, unless you are 100% sure it is empty. Because you are probably alone, you cannot take more than 20 zombies, and they will pop out at random times.
- Do not count on survivors. Always take survival minute by minute, and only set short term goals. Your only long term goal should involve you and you alone. Cross the survivors road when you get to it.
- Do not count on guns. Know why? Well, everyone else has the same idea as you. They want guns. And they will kill for them. Only incorporate the possibility of guns into your equation. Do not center it on them.
- Melee and unconventional weapons are a bad idea. Zombies cannot feel pain, so you have to destroy them. Knocking them back will only slow them down. They'll keep coming.

Now start.

Okay, I'll start by listing my stuff.
[Have a sharp pencil. A heavy computer. Nothing really good there.
Nailgun in garage, probably also a saw in there. Could use saw in worst case scenario. I'll take the nailgun and modify the nails.
Could put sharp objects on the grabber toy I have. Could probably slice into the head because of it's long range. Also could tape together five lighters, heat up a frying pan, and add some length to the handle. Hot metal, baby. Could do a little damage.
Keyboard, mouse, CDS, things to distract zombies for a bit. Bolt cutters.]
Equipment:
[Tomato sauce, batteries, laptop, potato chips, tofu hotdogs. Bring eggs too.]
Transport:
[Large van. Would be okay if not on largely populated roads. Can go 75.]
Plan:
[Bring the keyboard and mouse, bring nailgun with modified nails, bring knife grabber, bring hot pan, bring bolt cutters. Bring all equipment listed. Drive to a house with unlocked internet and use batteries to just make sure there aren't any evac stations in distance. If there are, drive there and use nailgun in hordes to lower the numbers. I could pin them down, but probably not kill them. Hope the car doesn't break down. If it does, saw and hot pan.
If the evac is not there, locate island with lowest people, try best to find a boat in the boatstore, if it's too populated, I will just use the car to drive in. I could walk to a beach and defend myself for atleast two minutes. If too many at beach, lower numbers with car before crashing in boatstore. Go to nonpopulated island, kill any zombies on it, start civillization with food I brought. If it's overwhelmed, boat out to sea and die there from starvation. If I don't get the boat on the beach, drive to least populated place with internet, try to contact ANYBODY in the world or ANYWHERE not infected. If all else fails, create farm, try best to survive off crops and hold off zombies until they stop coming. If ALL else fails, die in pride by jumping with my saw off the roof of the farm into a horde.]

Firts off thank you for not making a "you have guns, kill zombies." scenario.

I lawled at the harpoon gun part.

Well first thing is first. I would try and get to the side of them, with cover in front of me. ONce there, pop up and make a bit of noise to make sure they know I'm there. If they open fire on me, i will stay hidden hopeing they come no closer.

If they notice me, and don't try and kill me....no telling what I would do, as it all rides o nwhat they would do.

I see a rock in the sand. I use the shovel and dig it up. There's some wrapping paper around, too. I wrap it around the rock. Over in the trashcan there is a half-used lighter. I light it on fire and throw it at the group. It sets one zombie's shirt on fire. He notices me. His eyesight is blurred, and the smoke is overpowering his smell. He walks past me, but not before I can smash his brains with the shovel. The fire spread to a few other zombies, but not much. The other humans seem to be helped by this. There's a bit more wrapping paper in the trash. I repeat with a different rock. The one it gets thrown at is already on fire and is now experiencing some pretty hot fire. The harpoon guy kills the last zombie, and he yells "Thanks!" to me. I walk over and greet myself. Before they can, a huge group (20-30) zombies rush over. I hide behind a dumpster, get out my extra clothes, set them on fire, and quickly throw it at the ground between the survivors and the zombies. They run into it blindly, giving my friends a chance to fire away. There are a bunch left when the fire gives out, unfortunately. I almost get bitten but not before I shovel his face. I run back to the dumpster and find a bunch of paper. This lighter sure comes in handy. I throw some more fireballs at the zombies, finally making the horde die out a bit. The last bit are taken out by the hunting rifle guy. They don't see me and move on. I dig through the trash and find a rusted crowbar with dried blood on it. I pick up all the bullet shells and using the crowbar give them pointed edges. [makeshift nails for later] I walk over down the beach.

He's already told you everything you have. I'll give you the rock, since you're on a rocky beach. If there was wrapping paper (honestly, that's weak, there wouldn't be) or a lighter, he would have said so.

Hungers.
Anyway, Zophia and I actually was thinking about making a zombie survival survival club. Because intelligent zombie things needs clubs too. ... Or something. Besides that, it would give a twist to this because it would help seeing it from the other side. Think like your enemy and all.
Yes, apparently the only activity I can have here.
