I have only 56% chance of surviving a Zombie Apocalypse. At least I'm above the halfway mark.

As soon as we get a Zombie/Survival forum, then we can discuss all we want.
Speaking of which, head over to the forums section of system and give the survival forum a plus 1 if you want a place to discuss zombies to death.

Oh dear - Better say goodbye now

Where were you when I done a Zombie thread? We done the entire thing to death (ahem, excuse the pun!), from what shops to hide out in (Tesco) to which city to go to first and how to arrange our way to the Aran Islands.

Anywho, I'll take this test.

If she's of the slutty, bitchey type too then she's zombie noodles!

I have my moments... don't they always get eaten first though? in that case, no, I'm bet-down!

Hypnotoad

52%
Not being able to run much and not having a gun brought my score down.

BKtje

49%. Close enough to 50/50 chance tbh. Higher chance of survival than most seeing as the apocalypse means that most people be drooling for brains and the like

Do you have a 'nice personality?' Yeah the bet-down ones always survive and the hot chick always gets it. Meh, personality is over-rated.

Me and you Spyral gotta meet up when the shít starts going down. As long as I got my trusty Anarchist Cookbook and an armoured Transit van I'll be alright.

Musashi

79% chance of survival, I'm starting my own colony, with nubile ladies to breed a new master race!

Owning firearms and other tools pays off!

Smellyirishman

The first one or two were good, but isn't this what the "Cool links and vids" section is for? All these internet quiz things.

Result to follow.

I think we need pics to decide that.

hmm according to this I only have a 58% chance of survival, however as I still control the bird army I think my chances are actually much higher

Not if, for some bizzare reason (of course, in a rationable zombie situation :rolleyes: ), your bird army becomes zombie-birds! Then you're truly fúcked and dooming the rest of us while you are it!!

missingtime

I'd shoot them in the head, but not before staring longingly into their eyes and feeling a sense of doubt. This is a loved one, after all.

lol

Naikon

I hope the countless hours of playing CS:S would give me at least some advantage.
Oh wait!, I don't own a gun:(

Zombie related forum ftw

In fairness most zombie scenarios postulate the newly dead rising from the grave and spreading the "infection" by biting the living. No one is really at much risk in that case, any more than they would be at risk from say an outbreak of rabid dogs. I mean think about it - where are the freshly dead mostly stored? Mortuaries, funeral homes, places like that, which are ordinarily very secure with their own guards. Breaking into one of those places is tough, for a low intelligence shambler breaking out would be very difficult.

Even the really fast zombies would be tagged long before they got more than a couple of dozen people (and those dozen wouldn't get the chance to nail anyone else once people are alerted), and the thing about the shambling dead is they don't actually drive cars, so we're talking about ten days to two weeks for infection to reach Galway from say Dublin. Geographically they just can't do it. Also its not like they have a coherent strategy so they would simply be mopped up. 99% survival rates would not be out of the question.

The problems start if there are other vectors besides bites. Prime examples would be:

a) the zombification affects animals besides humans, in particular insects like moquitoes or midges.
b) its a spiritual malaise or some sort of reaching from the dark side effort.
c) Its an airborne disease, like Captain Trips in Stephen King's "The Stand".
d) Radiation or similar.

Once again, its no problem if it only affects the dead. The mobile dead can be easily isolated and dealt with. Your survival chances drop dramatically if it starts knocking down the living and healthy at random.

Edit: Also a lot of zombie movies miss the point that the most vicious, cunning, bad-attitude-laden predators on earth are now, and always have been, average humans.

45%. Balls. I need to buy some guns.

Cookbook ftw! Who needs guns when you have petrol bombs?

JIZZLORD

73%, same percentage as my geekiness

yawnstretch

52%

I need a weapon of some sort and more canned goods... The place im staying now is reasonably safe and not super easy to get to but I recently moved so I don't know the area as well as the place I grew up.

Less population here though so that's good in a way.

Zombie infestations wouldn't be so serious if people remained cold and calm and methodical. But no - they always panic and crash cars and expose fortified areas by being stupid.

You don't want to be over-run by idiots trying to get into your hideout spot because they can't find their own.

I think the real secret to survival is being as scared of the uninfected as the zombies during a breakout. Of course you don't want to be on your own either so you really need to pick out your chosen few now...

Nobody survives a zombie apocalypse. You're all just going to die a bit later than the rest.
