Poll: where would you hide in a zombie apocolypse?

[Donbett1974]

In a zombie belly.

 

[Simriel]

Hehehehe, I have a place already. The ULTIMATE fortress!

 

[Spudgun Man]

B&Q it's perfect, you have all the stuff for a barricade and vending machines for scran.

 

[CrazyNick]

I would hide in my local pub

 

[Railgun88]

My house is big enough and we have two rooms stockpiled with food. Plus the weapons I own, which I have guns, swords, daggers, and ect... Anyways I have sheet metal, 1/4" thick. I'd block my windows outside and inside with it. Ration food and get rid of everyone else cause they piss me off. 'Cept my girlfriend, for sanity and help(shes an amazing shot). Plus I have a 1997 Ford F-250 Twin-turbo Diesel, 8' bed, crew cab, which I can easily make a tank or close enough. Also I have a wood stove and a propane stove so I could cook and heat the house. Oh yeah I have a garage. Sorry I went on forever, but I think you get the idea.

EDIT: Sorry forgot the three generators, one for the fridge, one for the computers, and one for tvs and game systems.

EDIT 2: Sorry forgot the 2006 Chevy Suburban.

Is someone telling porkies??

[Beffudled Sheep]

I would choose my house because it is loaded with guns and ammo and has 6-8 years of food and water.

 

[JokerGrin]

I'd get up into my attic and stay VERY, VERY QUIET. Not manly, no, but at least I will have both of my buttocks.

 

[shadowman712]

i would hide in an underground bunker one way in a few ways out

 

[Hazy]

Wherever Snake's Box is. If that got him through multiple games and an online component, then it must be good for something.

Aircraft Carrier.

Kinda like Rivet city in Fallout3, but still able to operate.

I'll do what that ***** vampire told him to do in I am legend and go live in the mountains, somewhere no one would go where you could live in the wild, make a hut and hunt for food.

in order of effectiveness:

Oil rig
Prison
School
Apartment block.

The supermarket/ mall would function a lot like it did before, only it would be human meats on display and the shoppers would be zombies.

and a private residence is the dumbest place you can hide. Stay the fuck out of cities if you can.

A prison? Wide open spaces, a few jail cells and a shit load of zombies would be there, half of them infected prisoners and half of them sent to prison before people realised they where zombies. I thought about a school but it wouldn't have enough resources, same with the oil rig (I would imagine.) and wouldn't an apartment block be in a city?

yes, but an apartment block would allow you to cut off the bottom floor, effectively making it impregnable. Prisons have either high walls or fences surrounding them, and the wide open spaces allow you to see a shambler from a mile away. once you cleared it out you could cultivate the land, making the place infinitely livable.
The oil rig is impregnable (to zombies) and set up to be totally self sufficient, and the school building is easy enough to secure.

In a perfect world I'd head up to a space station to wait it out, but sadly I'm not a bilionaire.

The only thing you would have to worry about on an Oil Rig is hurricanes and tidal waves.

My brother says he would head to a prison but I think it's a dumb idea because there are no prisons near our home. He always talks about hijacking a nearby fire truck to drive there.

It's just another reason for me to stick to my orchard idea because it's very close to my home.

Assuming i started stock piling food and other supplies right now and the zombie apocalypse wasn't for 5 or 10 years I'm heading to my local scout den, High fence all around that has taken hits from 18 wheeler trucks and just been slightly dented, all windows are two stories up front and back door are reinforced and it contains all manner of saws axes and sledge hammers for my daily dose of tormenting zombies.

 

[Grayjack]

Antarctica. The chances of a zombie wandering there is over a 1,000,000 to 1. Thank you Zombie Survival Guide!

 

[Danzaivar]

I'd make my way to a Zeppelin style airship, and spend my days floating above ground. Only ever need to go down for more food!

 

[Kiutu]

Supermarket after stopping by the Katana store. Unlike Dead Rising, the Katana would not break and would be a supurb anti-zombie weapon as they are meant to slice through humans easily unlike Medival European weapons wich were made with armor in mind.

Why do people think a Katana is a good weapon for fighting zombies with? It really isn't when you think about it.

The orchard I would live on has these high powered hoses. I could use them to blow back the zombie hordes. Wouldn't have to get near the zombies either.

My reason is not enough to explain why? WHat would YOu then say is better huh? And it has to be reasonably attainable, so no flamethrowers or rocket launchers unless you for fact have on in your house which I doubt. A properly made katana is capable of slicing through flesh easily and requires no ammo and assumign these are the stereotypical zombie, you dont need skill weilidng it as long as you know not to stab yourself.

Think about it. It's not as easy to swing around a katana as you think. Even a sharp katana can not easily cleave through solid bone. Also keep in mind that you can only target one zombie with a katana. Sure you may slice open one of them but then 2 more will grab you before you can retract the blade. The best weapons fro dealing with massive hordes are ones that have crowd control capabilities.

Also you can make some effective weapons at home. It's easy to make a Molotov Cocktail. Also how does one easily obtain a katana?

You'd be amazed what we Americans have out in the smaller towns.
