Jesus Christ. I live in a town small enough that if I could get ten people together that know how to use guns and enough amunition, we could eventually take out the entire towns zombie populace by sitting in an intersection in some folding chairs and fireing off at anything slightly shambly. We could raid supplies as long as we set up base near the wal-mart.
Something quiet, i doubt they have the cognitive powers to realize where a silenced sniper shot came from.
But id also have a blade weapon. Running out of ammo would would mean death without it.

You are mistaken, This is what happens when you feed them.MaxTheReaper said:
The Don't Feed The Animals Stratagem
Luckily there is a retirement home/community only a few blocks from my house. Plenty of applesauce and boardgames for me; plenty of slow and senile people for the zombies.
Pros: Another plan that relies heavily on feeding old people to the undead. It is nice to see that practicality is taking front seat here, with such concerns as 'love' or 'morality' in the back. Way Back. Like in a trailer. At the gas station. Twenty-two miles ago. Which is now covered in zombies.
Cons: Again, lacking in details. It seems like everybody planning on using the elderly as zombie chaff have little else to go off of. What happens when the elderly run out? Much like feeding wild animals, you have taught the zombies to rely on your location to provide free food. The difference here being that when you show up without food for the pigeons, their revolt does little but soil your suit, whereas if you show up empty handed to a zombie feeding, you end up being that which they soil their suits with.

By the way, If your definition of child isn't in the 12's and under category, I will hunt you down. Most likely by covering you in meat and tying you to a tree in the middle of a zombie infested forest, Let's see you train them NOW.
I would "Shawn of the Dead" it. I would just walk around like a zombie. Then again, if it didn't work out I could always trust in a broken hockey stick and metal claw attached to the end of a chain. Ever since RE zombies gained the ability to leap 20 feet in the air and charge at you from across the room, regular 2 mph zombies seem like a cakewalk.
Lets see, for now i would sit on top of a local stripmall, with enough fod and water to last for months (the roof of the stores are 40 feet high, with only one entrance which can be easily block, and the stores include two small grocery stores ad a relatively large gun store) i would have a crapload of guns and ammo and i would spend my days reading books from the bookstore and practicing my headshot skillz with an M1 Garand.
If you thought it couldn't get more awesome, get this, there is a legitimate blade store there too, that sells combat ready blades, i have seen a crusader replica mace, several katanas, polarms, lathes, halbreds, and a two handed Greatsword with a blade 5 feet long, as well as all the tools and supplies needed to maintain a sharp and battle-ready blade,all thats left is too figure out how to get a car on the roof so i can leave if i manage to deadify all the zombies in the area.
I obviously have enough supplies, but i need more people to join my group, i have medical skillz, but i need a mech for vehicles, a techie to bypass security stuff, an engineer to build stuff and maintain barricades, 2 more guns, and 6 babes to help rebuild humankind

Weapons:
A crowbar, though I do know a few places to break into for shotguns and rifles if the Zombie hordes begin to mass up...
Hideout:
A cabin in the middle of woods. Plenty of fish, berries, game and other sources of food nearby. No trace of civilization for 30 miles. During winter I could get there with a snowmobile/skiing, during the summer with a bicycle/a car. No, I don't own a car. Yes, I can hotwire some models.
Companions(if aplicable): A few mates of mine, though only if they were not a part of the zombie horde.
where you'll go: To the middle of nowhere.
supplies: A few medkits(accidents do happen while moving in a hurry), batteries, radio, a generator if possible, some tools for building/repairing stuff. A practical knife, a compass and maps (these are a must), ammo, though it would be a problem to gain in any large quantities. Food and water only enough to last the trip, nature would provide the rest once at the hideout.
But really, all you can hope for is that the zombies are distracted enough by eating the other people while you gather the supplies and your mates and get the hell out of dodge.
Pros of my plan: Not complicated, discounting the zombies extremely easy to execute. Almost all the required supplies are within 5 minute reach from me, at any given time. The hideout can support us as long as there is any food in the nearby forests/lakes. Hideout could easily act as a base for raiding missions into towns, assuming you'd got some kind of motorvehicle. Plan can easily be adapted to any number of people less than a dozen or so, including the assumption that only I manage to escape to my hideout. Works best during winter: Snow and icy lakes slow down the zombies, while giving me an huge speed-advantage with skis. The only truly critical equipment are only the knife and a map and some kind of water container, even if small. Even a compass can be done without if truly necessary, though it would significantly increase my chances.
Cons: Any prolonged battle with even a small group of zombies likely results in becoming dinner. Getting guns would be a problem. If whatever caused the zombification spread via water/air, the plan would not work. The plan hinges on speed of execution and ability to quickly exit any populated areas into wilderness where the feet-dragging zombie hordes would have no change of cathing up with me, even if I were on foot.

Why does everyone always want to "survive" the zombie apocalypse? They can have my brains, I'll happily become a zombie without a care in the world. And guess what? I'm taking you all with me. Bwahahahaha.

i love cracked
Zombie apocalypse isn't really a threat where I live (Northern Norway). As long as it doesn't happen in August, they would probably be frozen stiff. In which case they aren't really that dangerous until they thaw, which might be the middle of June at the earliest. So I could batter their brains with ease. Anyways, I could probably set up camp in the mountains with my trusty .30-06 and 12/76 shotgun. Not sure it would really worry me though - this place isn't exactly densely populated.
