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!

@Blaze, thanks for posting the pics, saved Valkery some time.

Personally I don't believe you've fired as many guns as you've said, but we have no proof to say you didn't, while you have no proof to say you did. Personally I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. Not sure if you have or not, but write up a plan and stuff, I'm sure you already know how to cause I think you wrote one already, but it got rejected or something? When you're done I'll be one of your judges. ^^

@Bjiscuit, Nice gun O-o looks sweet.

Until then, anyone else want to go?

My friend has a Zombie Survival book...
Here are a few tips:
Never ever use a machine gun, use a shotgun, pistol, or if you're jackie chan, use a sword.
Garage doors and cars attract zombies like flies to a piece of raw meat. No motorized vehicles, use a bike.
You MUST cut off or destroy it's brain to kill it.
Fire will eventually destroy it, but it don't feel no pain... same with electricity.
Don't use grendades, though rocket launchers are ok. o yea, btw, zombies are actually very fast and have superhuman strength... they are very different from the video games. btw dont use radiation unless you want to face radiation zombies. i will get more tips as soon as my friend tells me more abt zombies

You can stop with the tips, friend, because your zombies do not = our zombies. Our zombies aren't super fast human strength tanks with long tongues that explode into smoke and spit acid or whatnot, depending on what game you're playing or book you're reading. We have our own little scenario zombie if you want to go look it up.

And uhm, I'll debunk a few of your tips.
The first one is a good idea, not using a machine gun. Swords wont help.
The second one is decent but it's pointless to go on a bike for long distances.
You don't HAVE to cut off or destroy it's brain. If something doesn't have oxygen in it's blood, or blood in it's cells, then the cells deteriorate and die. If the brain itself has no blood, it goes through a very fast necrosis (Within the first 10 seconds of lack of oxygen), so after a minure or two the brain is half dead already. Shoot a lung or it's heart. Within minutes it's dead. Hell, shoot off it's leg that'll make it bleed to death while you run.
Fire will NOT kill it unless it gets 4th degree burns on it's ENTIRE body. Then it's unable to move, because it has no muscles because they're burnt off. Or you can cook the brain but that'll take a while. Electricity could fry the brain, just like it does to us. Throw a plugged-in toaster into a bathtub with a zombie in it and it's nervous system will be fried along with it's brain.
I agree with the grenade thing. Grenades wont help. We all know why. Rocket launchers might not help either, considering you wont always be fighting this large group of zombies all clumped up trying to get to you. Also, they're very loud, so you'll need a lot of rockets.
Like I said, they're not super fast and they can't pick up cars. The only way a person can pick up cars is with adrenaline. If a mother's baby is in trouble, she could lift a truck, then go to the hospital after for her muscles tearing and her bones breaking. Zeds wont have adrenaline, most likely.
I don't know anything about radiation, so I can't debunk that tip.

Anyone else want to add something, or prove me wrong?

The Zombie Survial Guide


Do not use that book. He uses a diffrent virus from us, and it is a stupid book. It gives a large amount of bad advice, and it was written in order to make him money. As it is, we do not know what zombies will be like, so we like to use our virus, which is more beliveable.

So yes, don't use that book. Adn i will be cross checking your plan with the book to make sure you odn't copy it....

Shotguns are NOT a good idea. They're loud, tough to reload, and slow-firing. And inaccurate.

Really the only time it is good to use a shotgun is when you are facing one or two zombies and you are not in a city. Other than that it is not a good weapon for all the reasons above and then some; like it having a lot of kick back and could possibly harm you.

I don't suggest ever using a shotgun if you have another weapon that'd be better. It's better than melee, but any other gun would be better than a shotgun for this reason:

If you're a regular person, you're gonna shit a brick when you first see a zombie. Are you really gonna pull the trigger when he gets close? The closer he gets, the more you freak. If you have a handgun you can at least shoot him a bunch of times in an attempt at a headshot. With a rifle you can aim better. With a machine gun you can hipfire it at him and fill him with lead. With a shotgun you can't fire from a long distance, and thus unless you have nerves of steel, you're dead.

My first step to survive(asuming that my family had already died) would be to drive to the nearist town and find all the guns and ammo that I could get; I would also take any dried food and other non-parishables and go to the public library to find books on how to perserve food. my next step would be to attempt to grow a inside garden(because I would not want to risk going outside again) I would use seed found from fruit that was in the house; but because we have no vegetables the are not an option. I would take all of my guns and ammo to the second floor of my house, this serves two practial purposes first my house has many windows in every direction and is on a substantial hill with no trees to block the view so it would be easy to see where ever the zombies are comming from. the second reason that I would take my supplies upstairs is because there is only one stairway up, so if the zombies did get in I would have an easy time shooting them as they came up. I would try too survive like this without worrying about killing zombies just for the sake of killing zombies, that way I could conserve ammo and would have to take fewer trips outside my house.

Unless you have hunting rounds, then you are right.
