So Where Will You Be? [survivor Map]

I like the idea of going to one of the islands.

Otherwise ucd would be a good option. the place was designed to prevent large gathering(riots). plenty of resources in the area and escape routes!

This is just great.

We've been here all along... (queue scary, athmospheric music)

May have to create a page on the Dublin Zombie Walk website in honour of it!

Storm chasers vehicle on Mythbusters on Discovery HD now seems nearly perfect...

An army barracks perhaps, followed swiftly by a supermarket would perhaps be a good starting point.

til everyone has the same plan :P

Well my alternatives are to stay where I am. I doubt that downtown Cork would be a good place to be.

Possibly, if the english army retreated from the uk to assist (and remained uninfected).
Considering the z's could conceivably wash up "alive" on any beach, every inch of the islands coast would need to be guarded.

Thats a lot of guards needed...

grand job for the out of work builders!

Spike Island. Small enough to be easily defendible, large enough to support a community of twenty or so through farming. the ex-fort/prison would provide more than adequate protection (possibly left over cannons?), close enough to the city to make forays and (most importantly) it's surrounded by two other army forts and sheer cliffs on one side. Disadvantages: No guns, possibly in bad condition.

Location for me is easy a rather small Island not far from me. The problem I would have would be how many people, direct family is a must. Including my step-father and grandparents that's 7 people. We could take my grandads boat out and anchor it from shore, wouldn't use it much due to lack of fuel and the like maybe just early stages for trips for supplies. We'd also go around and get all the lobster pots dotted around and place them closer to the island so we could row out to them (would use them more for crabs, **** loads of them) as well as setting nets for fish. If we could get seeds we could have a farm, not particullaly fertile land + sea air but sure it'd have to do. Would hopefully be able to get some seeds probably mostly potatoes for carbs. Also tomatoes for vitamin c would be important. And others of course not sure which would be most suitable(must do some research)

Pros of location
Lots of food in the sea.
Near mainland so can scavenge if needed(but we would have a lot of warning due to being so rural.)
Old buildings on island could be used(would need repairs but we have the tools and know-how)
Near enough populated islands so could trade with them if the infection didn't spread there. They'd probably avoid infection but it would only take one infected to flee there, become a zed and doom the island so why take that chance?

Cons
Crappy land

Additional candidates
Grandads siblings and their children
Pros
Most have experience with fishing and/or building.
They would have lots of tools and materials lying around.
Plenty of guns and experience with them.

Cons
Adds at least 20-25 people to the numbers that's quite a bit, maybe too much. There are other islands close by though so could inhabit these as well.
Opens flood gates for others where does it stop?

Step-Fathers Family
Pros
Stepfathers mother has hens and a rooster so plenty of eggs to go around.
His brother has sheep so that would be an option for access to clothing and food if we had enough land.
A few of his nieces are around my age and are lookers and "repopulating" with them wouldn't result in derpy children(likely side Con: If my cousins were there as well they'd probably score them, resulting in me being

Cons
Once again numbers maybe 20 more again, a good few are kids.
None of his brothers' wives' families would be allowed, try explaining that to them.

I'll take the boat to Lambay lol, beat that.There's a castle with swords n stuff and lots of food.
