    1. Woodies has a large BBQ section

    2. Zombies are not human

    Surely I'm not the only one wondering what a zombie burger tastes like???

    Rotten probably.

    I'd use poetry to defeat zombies. By reciting peoples poetry they would explode.

    A shovel, which I'd promptly sharpen the edges of into a big head chopping lobotomizer.

    I'd climb a set of stairs up to the second floor then I'd use an axe to destroy the stairs. No way for the zombies to get up means we're perfectly safe.

    Actually no, I just came up with it one night when I was watching a zombie movie one night with some of the lads.

    Grab a bladed weapon and an axe and go for the stairs.

    Using a nailgun will require getting up close to the Zombies and that increases the chance of you being feasted on..........


    3 - Problems with the chainsaw

    1. They run out of fuel

    2. They can stall at the worst possible times

    3. They are too loud. From dealing with maybe 10 zombies, the noise from a chainsaw could attract another 20 easily.

    Good plan.

    It sounds good, but how exactly could you destroy the stairs with an axe? Presumably you'd have to do it when you've already gotten to the top of the stairs, in which case you'd only be able get to the top few stairs?

    Forklift with new sharp attachments and a few rolls of mesh fencing around cab.

    Mosh them for a bit then pick off the remaining ones with nail gun, use forks to push them outisde then lock myself in and live on rabbit food for a bit..

    Well you could kick the rest of the staircase away. Failing that you could take the staircase out from the bottom and get a ladder and use that to get to the second floor.

    Climb up on the nearest shelf which has the heaviest possible objects at hand and proceed to throw said objects upon the heads of aforementioned zombies. Given the time I would also certainly grab a hedge trimmers, some soil, seeds and a watering can with which I would fashion myself a new eden and repopulate the earth(as everyone knows women flock to a man who can garden).

    I wouldn't be in Woodies in the first place?

    I'd use that nasale cnut from the Woodie's advertisements as a human shield.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 949 ✭✭✭LoanShark


    I'd run to the bog and take out all the Toilet roll... I'd then run and get a bag of screws (Brass aprox 6" Long), I'd then run and get a roll of Gaffa Tape and then I'd hand it all over to Mac Guyver and say "Right Smart Ass Get out of this one"

    I've been having this discussion with college friends for years and we've all come up with a fairly zombie-proof plan. However if I were in woodies, I'd find a pneumatic drill, shovels, and other digging implements. Barricade off a section of the place to myself and dig tunnels that criss-cross from one side to the other.

    That and I'd booby-trap (teehee booby) the whole effin place. Them Zombies wont get me too easily!

    I second this. The forum should be split into different sections with plans for each city/county of Ireland and then a general section on the impending Zombie Apocalypse.

    Off to Feedback I go :)

    A shovel(decapitate with the edge or bash for blunt damage), gas canister(for cooking/bombing while waiting it out) and a sledgehammer(for destroying my stairs, can just leave the banister to get up after, zombies don't climb).


  • Posts: 17,735 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    zombies don't climb

    See, this is one major problem I have with the Zombie Survival Guide. It's based upon one type of Zombie only. What if there are more?

    Say Zombies CAN climb. What then?

    Theres a Zombie in the Dawn of the Dead remake that can. And I'm pretty sure that some in Resident Evil: Apocalypse can too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,596 ✭✭✭Riddle101


    I'd climb up onto the shelves and move along them because the zombies wouldn't be able to reach you, just like in Resident Evil. Then i find some aerosal sprays and using my lighter i;d make one of those flame thrower type things or i'd just use a blow torch to torch the zombies from a height adavantage. Then i'd use my mobile phone to call Frank Gallagher(Shameless), Chuck Norris, Jason Statham, Pamela Anderson and Lee Evan(The Boyz) to come around and we'd all have a PARRRRRRRRRRRTY........ scatter


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86,683 ✭✭✭✭Overheal


    What if we're dealing with Fast Smart Zombies? What if theres Tremor bugs too?

    We're screwed!

    On the other hand, if they're the zombies from 28 days later then I would probably use the few short seconds before I die to soil myself.

    There are no zombies in 28 Days/Weeks Later. They are rage infected humans. They are not dead and you can kill them by shooting their torso.

    There are fast moving zombies in the remake of Day of The Dead, but that's just hollywood silliness.

    That's what i get for being pedantic.:(


  • Posts: 26,920 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    The concept of fast zombies scares the bejesus out of me. In the Day of the Dead remake, are they not fast too?

    Yep, judging by the trailer not only can they run but they can also jump. Looks like we need to rethink a lot of the plans.

    Eep.

    A shovel, which I'd promptly sharpen the edges of into a big head chopping lobotomizer.

    Someone read World War Z;)

    I of course would put on a womans dress, call myself Frank and then stick giant foam horse heads on all the zombies before attacking them with a shopping trolley.
    I have observed a Zombie survival simulator on one of these new fangled xboxen and this suggests all of the above would be highly successful.

    Wasnt even aware there was a Day remake.Alas i know little it seems.
    It doesnt seem to be based even remotely on the original though.
