I will let myself turn into a zombie, hunt down each and every one of you, and start my very own GITP zombie hoard

[golentan]

Agreed. Isak, I'd recommend seizing a fishing boat, barge, or other civilian oceangoing vessel. Sweep it for zombies first, of course. If you live nearby, you can join us if you promise not to go all shooty.

Though we may send off a few zombies ourselves to cries of things like "AAAAAH! MOTHERLAND!!!" our general plan involves conservation of ammo and not having to be in shooty type situations.

Edit: @^^: ZombiesITP? ZombificationITP? FlesheatersITP?

All we want to do is eat your brains. We're not unreasonable, I mean no one's gonna eat your eyes.

Possibly board the doors and windows.

Probably this, but be scared constantly as I'm doing it.

Curse my high-school freshman budget for not being able to afford the island to wait out the apocalypse on!

[Telonius]

I live in a rural area, so plenty of guns and ammunition to be had around here. There's a ready source of water (a river) nearby.

First item: Round up the survivors. Arm them all.

Second item: Secure a clear path to the river, then secure a food source.

Third item: Find out as much as possible about the zombies. Are they shamblers? Runners? Does a headshot kill them? Does the zombification seem to be spread by contact, spores, sickness, mystic powers? Do all dead rise as zombies, or is it zombie-to-human only? Is voodoo of any use against them, or do we have to kill them with fire? Toss a few in the river and see if they can swim. What's the timeframe for full zombification of an infected person?

Fourth item: Based on the information gained, plan your defensive strategy. If the zombies are runners, it'll be much more difficult. Swimmers will totally mess up a boat strategy.

My state is a designated retreat for the zombie apocalypse. Lax gun control laws in Missouri combined with large rural areas means that many citizens either own a shotgun (for hunting), or know several people who do. That and a nearby military base and a fiction-savvy university campus means that my area is relatively safe from the zombie apocalypse.

FOOL! You have told soon-to-be-a-zombie gamerkid all about your hideout!

Soon my hoard shall come!

This. Definitely this. I have enough money to buy a plane ticket, even if my whole family doesn't just pack up and go.

And you'll deal with a state full of AKs, M16s, shotguns, and people who know how to use them how?

I myself will be an elite ninja-zombie, you fighting off that how?

Besides, with such a military genius leading them, my zombies can easily outsmart mortals!

Ammunition is limited. Zombies not.

[Sir Dar]

Heres my plan.Use my necromancer powers to rise a horde of zombies ,vampire,liches[liches don't miss with the liches],ghost, and other undead to kill/take over the world with.If my undead hordes don't kill you my magic will.

If somehow my necromancer powers don't or won't work plan p.


Worship a god of light and life then become a paladin .Used my new paladin powers and sword to send the undead hordes back to there graves with my holy rage.

If that fails plan b.Take all the food i can from my home with me and a weapon.any weapon will do.


Try to group up with others who are on the run from the undead hordes.Step 1:Get to some where hard for the undead hordes to reach.Step 2:Then set up things like walls and traps.If the undead do reach said place and we can;t hold it. we make a run for it and escape to some where new. Then keep doing steps one and 2 if this plan fails to many times.The group makes up a new plan.It will end with the horde dieing out or the group becoming zombies.


Plan w.Become a crazy old wizard that lives in a tower.that loves to cast fire base magic on any undead near by.Ward my tower so undead can't get in.Summon up minions to fight the undead if they disspell my wards or find a way a round them.


Is all ways a good idea to have a few plans just in case.

[Admiral Walrus]

I would call friend A and have him drive me and another friend B to friend A's house where I would borrow a pistol or a shotgun and I would shoot myself, having agreed on this course of action for this situation.

[Thajocoth]

When/if the zombies reach me, just try to blend in. If successful, try to stay towards the front of the population in a direction, but not close enough to the front to get shot as they overtake areas. This way, if people start beating the zombies, I'll have enough time to drop to the ground, put my hands over my head and yell "Don't shoot me!" The zombies will be too busy dying at that point to bother with me.

If people never overtake the zombies, it'll be interesting to see what happens post-zombie apocalypse.

If the zombies don't seem to be falling for my ruse, I bite them. See how THEY like it!

[Syka]

We're either going to the local police station or the local Walmart. We have a few friends on the police force, so we'd be able to get in and the building is pretty easy to fortify.

Taking over Walmart would be more difficult, but I know several people who work or worked there, and they know pretty much everyone else who works there, so we could probably just kick out all the customers and fortify from there. Power in numbers and all that.

That was the plan as discussed by my friends.

[PirateJesus]

I'm sorry but it really depresses me that so many people are willing to go with the "I'll shoot myself in the head" method. You're just going to give up? Just like that? Not going to resist at all?

At least try to take a few dozen brain-eaters with you.

The plan discussed with my friend? Kill anything that moans and hungers for flesh. Bulldoze them, bludgeon them, shoot them, do something. I beleive I have the perfect quote for this.

"...Run, hide, or fight if you got the balls and the guns; but for god's sake don't go waving the white flag. They'll just strangle you with it." -Three Dog

Has... has anyone said that? The worst I've hear are people claiming other's plans are suicidally flawed...

Though to be fair, if bitten "shoot yourself in the head" or "pull the pin out of a grenade, hold the lever and go for a late night zombie swarm jog" are the best options, depending on circumstance.

I'm talking about before being bitten. and i guess this guy.

And when he takes your hoard, he can buy more guns. You should have brought your zombie horde instead. didn't you learn anything from Redcloak and the MITD?.

[Blaine.Bush]

Ask my dad what to do.

Go, logger/fisherman/hunter/outdoorsman! I choose you!

It's super effective!

Or I could kill my family and then myself. Yes, I am that weaksauce.

I hate zombies.

Islands are better than oil rigs. Because they grow their own food. This is why I voted Hawaii. If you're going to wait out apocalypse, at least do it somewhere pleasant.

"Welcome to Tennessee, patron state of shooting stuff..." Don't bring Missouri weaksauce into a "whose state is most prepared to get shooty" contest. We already know that Tennessee beat the crap out of Texas and Alaska for that title by virtue of having more guns per person, and crazier guns.*

EDIT: Oh, and, I totally support killing yourself if it's a choice between that and zombiefication. Never submit!

*please note that these "stats" are completely made up, and bragging about the shootyness of one's state is not to be taken literally. There are lots of situations where this is a bad thing. At least we're prepared for the undead, I guess.

[gamerkid]

No "shooty" state can stand a chance against zombie hoards:

1.How the heck can you organize an ENTIRE STATE!!!!!
2.Some people WILL get bitten, by the time you get a group set up you guys could be all that is left.
3.the smallest scratch on somebody can spell DOOM!!!!
4. Once you run out of ammo, GAME OVER!

Okay. Someone's being silly. Slow zombies mean easy kills, there are more bullets than people in some states even excluding melee kills, you don't need the entire state in one group...

Me, I'm hitting Costco. Enough food to have some planning time, enough potatoes and space to start farming, built like a fort including sniping spots...

Should be good enough to hole up until the military mops up, assuming I'm on the right side of any quarantine zones.

Or, alternately: Take car. Go to Mum's. Kill Phil - "Sorry." - grab Liz, go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of this to blow over.

[Sneak]

What would I do?

Stay at home, keep a baseball bat with me, go about my life as usual, and probably get killed fairly quickly.

Just being honest here.

[quicker_comment]

My plan would be to use the first day or so to stockpile food by any means necessary, and then isolate myself entirely (barricading up my apartment -- I don't have a bunker handy) and wait until I hear radio reports that the crisis has been handled.

That'd be my plan. What would actually happen?

This. I have no illusions that I'm particularly well suited to surviving Z-day.

[Renegade Paladin]

I put my vampire plan into effect, because it's an obvious ruse to cover the bloodsuckers' long-awaited move.

So, what are your well thought out zombie plans? Because, as we all know, zombies are serious business.

you wouldnt get your family?? did they beat you as a child?

[Yrcrazypa]

I'll likely be fine, I'm on a military base, and I am among the people with the most amount of money sunk into them. Really, global thermonuclear war is more of a certain death situation for me than zombies. You can shoot down zombies, and most of the people on this base can do that.

[Anatharon]

Simple. I'd be glad I bought This.
