Tips for surviving the zombie apocalypse
  • SomeoneE1se October 2010

    I'm going to turn this into a blog post, but I wanted to get some suggestions first.

    What do you think someone who doesn't know anything should do to be ready? I want to keep this more as a survival theme, rather then a mount an attack plan. This is for the people who just want to survive, running is fine with them.

    A few rules.

    not in order:
    -Double-tap
    -Cardio
    -Avoid bathrooms
    -Stretch

    Some other basic pieces of information:
    -Zombies infect you by biting, spitting, any fluid transfer such that solanum infects another human being
    -Avoid zombies. (Duh, but still, if this person knows nothing...)
    -Find remote areas, build up supply stores, find a team, wait out the apocalypse.

    This is some obvious starter materials. Figure it'd generate ideas.

    No guns, these are people who just need to run, first these people will never be able to acquire a gun after they realize the zombie apoc has started, let alone know how to use it.

    Weapon alternatives:

    -Anything that can act as a bludgeon
    -Anything sharp, long, and good to hit things with
    -Molotov cocktails
    -Axes
    -Traps
    -Clubs

    Have at least two genders in your team.
    Establish team dynamic early and make sure it works.

  • SomeoneE1se October 2010

    two?! I plan on at least 3 genders!

  • maodun October 2010

    Good. Go find some transgender people and get back to me.

  • SomeoneE1se October 2010

    What if someone has to go it alone?

    The world is ending, give it up already :).

    My first stop, whether fighting it out or running, would be a gun store. As mentioned before,

    "-Zombies infect you by biting, spitting, any fluid transfer such that solanum infects another human being"

    Either you run well enough that you never come within a few feet of a zombie or make sure your prepared to take it out before it gets that close.

  • SomeoneE1se October 2010

    good suggestions! I'll add a section on avoiding infection

  • gameman733 October 2010

    So here's a thought. What do you do to pass the time, assuming you can make it to safety? And where is safety?

  • SomeoneE1se October 2010

    ohhh I haven't thought about that... interesting

    what would you do?

    read of course, meditate, stretch, yogo? what would you do if you didn't have power?

  • gameman733 October 2010

    practice shooting if I made it without needing it and ammo was plentiful. on another note, how Do you know the zombie plague has ended?

  • SomeoneE1se October 2010

    Who can you trust who must you avoid?

Howdy, Stranger!
