Poll: Your Doomsaday Scenario

[philosophicalbastard]

Robot uprising, then atleast some form of sentience would survive.

Plus, I loathe the human race, and it's needed a good trimming for the past century.

Out of interest does that mean you hate yourself and your family & friends too?

I think that the human race is the worst thing to happen to the planet Earth. We as a species are instinctivly violent, greedy, and selfish. I'm not saying that all people are evil, since many people have managed to move past that. Most people, however, don't deserve any sympathy. I know that sounds kinda sociopathic, but even I admit that I'm not perfect, and I'm probably damaging the Earth and it's creatures just be existing. I just learn to live with that.

Life on earth is alot more resilient than we give it credit for, its survived through numerous mass extinctions ten times worse than anything we could ever do. If a nuclear war occured there would always be one pocket of life left, if we over pollute nature will adapt and survive, even right now there are a few species of bacteria that are eating up all that plastic we dump everywhere.

The human race is actually on of the least violent animals on Earth. We were once nomadic peoples, migratiing across the planet striping places bare of their plants and animals, then we discovered farming. We now keep those creatures alive and in check to continuosly serve us, sure we may sometimes hunt untamed creatures to extinction, but we learned from those mistakes. Unlike other species, ours can correct its mistakes. Remember the Wooly Mammoth, the giant furry elephant we hunted to extintion near the dawn of man? Yeah, we're currently attempting to bring it back through cloning. Another thing I'd like to point out is that no other species is humble enough (nor capable of) demonising itself in light of past mistakes.

OT: I'd enjoy a robot uprising just because they'd still carry one the Human legacy just by the fact that we made them.

All I got was Starship Troopers and The Sixth Sense :3

Like other people said, a zombie apocalypse would probably be the most easily survivable, seeing as nearly every household has some type of gun/weapon. I think a zombie apocalypse could be alright.

The Sixth Sense I didn't know I mentioned, could you explain ?

You mentioned water guns,

Spoiler: Sixth Sense Spoilers

And in the Sixth Sense the alien is killed by Bruce Willis's crew throwing water at it.

I was trying to refer to Signs . And I never knew that movie had an alien!

 

[AnthonTheSkabot]

None of those. I prefer an original and strange end to the planet earth, the cello apocalypse. Cellos with sharpened endpins and explosive rockstops along with other fine weaponry fall from the sky to wipe out the human race and the only way to stop it is by playing the violin or viola, no matter if you're a violinist/what-ever-you-call-someone-who-plays-the-viola-ist or some one who doesn't know what low two even means. The cello apocalypse would probably end in a great war between the upper and lower strings causing a climax better than any other apocalypse. Quite original and worth surviving.

 

[DuctTapeJedi]

I'm best prepared for a zombie outbreak, by far.

 

[Impluse_101]

My doomsday only includes this creature right here

Spoiler: It's so cuddly!

 

[Rayne870]

We'll probably still be dumb enough to be wiped out by a giant rock. Failing that I know for practical reasons it won't be zombies, and is unlikely to be robots. World War 3 is possible but it isn't likely that a world super power will use WMD's since everyone is scared to in exception to a few terrorist nutcases in the world but they don't have the volume of WMD's that they would need to kill off the whole population.

If we don't get killed off by space junk or some colossal screw-up with the sun hundreds of millions of years from now then maybe first contact with aliens wont go well for us. But the thing to consider there is that any alien species would have reached a huge level of social maturity to be able to actually leave it's own galaxy. The only real interest in starting a war with us would be for resources, which are readily available in many many more places than our tiny dirtball we call home.

So in short, still going with the giant space rock, and once we build up the technology to deal with that I don't think we are going to be wiped out.

Ohhh, major derp on my part. I meant "Signs", not "The Sixth Sense". Sorry for the confusion!

I knew something was weird, ghosts and an alien??? Well thanks for clearing that up

To be honest all of those are awesome! However after reading the details of all the options, Zombie Plague would have to be my pick. Unless the Plague was caused by airbourn pathogens and lives in water, then that would suck. However, World War 3 sounds the most realistic of all, but 99% of the population will most likely die. Also, the 0.5% will become radioactive ghouls or creatures. So yeah, Zombies are cool. Gamers would totally survive any of those, we are prepared. . .sorta

 

[Apocalyptore]

I VOTED Mars attack, but, in reality, I WANT something supernatural to happen. Something like a battle between Heaven and Hell and Earth is caught in the middle. Or that, all of a sudden, human babies are born dead or zombie-like because the reincarnation cycle had ended, therefore humans are either born dead or like zombies who've forgotten how to reproduce. Thus the final generation/age of man is made-up of zombie-people who will die off and leave nothing to keep us going.
Hm... Perhaps I should've voted for "Zombie Plague" after all...

 

[Brawndo]

OT: I believe mine would be the World War 3. Lets put it like this: I live in Arkansas. ARKANSAS. Nobody has or ever will care about Arkansas! We're the Yoko Ono of the US! If the U.S. gets bombed, we'll be the last people China even considers nuking. Plus, I loathe the human race, and it's needed a good trimming for the past century.

O rly? Declassified Cold War-era Russian nuclear targets in the USA provided in this map from FEMA say otherwise:

a little ot there dont you think and this is comming from a violaist himself and you left out the bases what do they all spontainiusly combuse in to millions of peices lol

 

[StormShaun]

I would like something like Heven Vs Hell or UFO attack and we fight back, *cough* like Crysis *cough*

 

[Asuka Soryu]

World War 3

Most likely to happen.

We survived World War 1 and 2, perhaps we'll survive 3.

I dislike the Zombie appocalypse.
It's one thing to watch your loved ones die. It's another to have to kill them.

 

[Voidrunner]

Considering we are dealing with slow stupid zombies I have to say zombie plague, especially if I could my hands on a weapon to kill of a Z's.

 

[Dirkie]

Preferred: anti-matter meteor with the same mass as the earth.
Earth shattering kaboom and nothing but light related remains of everything.

The bassists would probably be killed or forced into deconstructing their basses and using the scraps to make cellos, why?, Because the cellos would target basses and cellos first to get more cellos into their army, why?, They knew that violinists and what-ever-you-call-someone-who-plays-the-viola-ists are all over the place and they want them dead.
