The Survivors of the South Hey folks! I’ve put together a very loose decision making dependent group game! For those of you who are experienced with games or perhaps visual novels which features ‘paths’ dependent on your choices then this is forum game is for you! Survivors of the South is first and foremost – a ‘team’ game – you’re not out to kill each other, you’re playing together with those of you that sign up. Keep that firmly in mind before signing up as you will require to chat amongst yourselves, this isn’t a game where you can sit quietly throughout and hope you go unnoticed. You must contribute to the group for the game to actually progress! Active forum gamers who genuinely wish to participate are encouraged! A set routine of how this game will play out Rules Backstory Key Info for the entirety of this game [spoiler] – Zombies in this game have slightly blurred eyesight, they cannot tell whether you are another zombie or human at long distance so they choose to ignore you. - Their hearing is slightly above average. - Their sense of smell is unknown to the group. - Mutant zombies characteristics are unique, so are ultimately unknown. - Everyone has clothing suitable for winter. - Depending on how long they’ve been zombies affects their general mobility and such. If they are a fresh zombie expect them to be able to travel effectively and fast, although without the basic knowledge a human would have. They are capable of running full speed but will not attempt to jump up a curb on a footpath for example. Zombies which have been around since the start of the apocalypse are what you would see in films. Slow, limbs falling off from deterioration, easy to deal with…. - Method of infection is due to physical contact which draws any amount of blood. Bites, scratches, grazes, you name it. It is unknown whether infection can be stopped via any type of medicine or...extreme methods. - For the sake of the story start, assume you were magically dropped in here and have no specific knowledge of the current state of London. You know the layout somewhat, but are unsure of how the apocalypse has affected it. [/quote] Game is now in progress folks! |

| "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34 |
| Well let's remember we can think about what to choose. If it's like choose an option it's a permanent choice. So look at others choices and choose something that compliments it or helps our group some other way. |
|
| My post should be up to date now, I think we need someone who can drive, weapons and the cooking equipment. |
| "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own." Matthew 6:34 |
| First Aid was a smart choice Astros not sure what chabe thinks three tents will provide in the long term... nvm forgot we were a team. guess martial arts was'nt too smart |
| I've been here way too long... |
| If nobody takes driving then Wolf's mechanical engineering might not be so useful. |
Chabe said: If nobody takes driving then Wolf's mechanical engineering might not be so useful. Agreed, someone should choose driving. |
|
| Inb4 my crowbar breaks because of the rust... But if not, it'll come in handy. Oh, the cooking equipment will be useless unless someone has cooking knowledge. |

TheConquerer said: First Aid was a smart choice Astros not sure what chabe thinks three tents will provide in the long term... nvm forgot we were a team. guess martial arts was'nt too smart Protection from the elements, you can only survive roughly three hours without some shelter depending on the elements. |
|
| There could other situations in which mechanical engineering may be useful. But yeah, someone who can drive will be nice. |
|
| Can we still change our choice if not everyone has registered? |
| I've been here way too long... |
| You may change your choices during signup to compliment other peoples if you so wish, once signup is closed though, no more! |

| I'm sticking with first aid =P. |
|
| We can still pick 7 things, and there are 19 choices left. What do we really need? |

The sanctuary is to the north, if we head that way it's going to get colder. |

| It is good to see so many familiar faces. And I thought you all had perished! |
|
| My top pics for the next 6 items would be. Rope,Hacksaw,Smoke grenades,Cooking Equip, Cooking skill,Crossbow. The rope and hacksaw might come in handy somewhere, the grenades could be used for a number of things. Cooking is important in keeping us fed. We might be able to make or find arrows and they're more silent than a revolver. |

| Our team knows everything but has nothing. This is going to be painful.

| Frying pan guys! Need it to cook with. Or, y'know, the cooking equipment. |
Chabe said: Frying pan guys! Need it to cook with. Cooking equipment could include other things beside a frying pan which can be used. |
|
| It should be made note of but; Just because you have a weapon or a survival item doesn't mean you are efficient at wielding it. Only knowledge makes you efficient. If one of you were to find a katana somewhere down the line that doesn't make you a expert swordsman killing machine. That just makes you a dude with a katana who stands a better chance. |

| Cooking equipment=cooking knives, cooking knives=emergency weapons. Although, who could resist a frying pan?  I'm tempted to switch. EDIT: Vex, does martial arts knowledge include knowledge of using melee weapons efficiently? |
