Food service. We got 10 BBQ smokers at my place. Bring me your favorite wasteland critter, and we'll have em smoked up tasting like heaven.

I'll give you me rats. Only thing I can catch in the bloody subways. Well I'd have to say... I'd develop an Australian accent (Don't ask. I don't even know why). Change my name to Augustus "Mad" Rights. Live in the subway hunting rats and living in the trains faking Schizophrenia. Maybe develop an underground subway society. I can see it now. Stations using trains going to one society to another. I guess the type of Metro 2033 kinda stuff. And on Tuesdays and Thursdays go zombie hunting and on Wendsdays barter with you above grounders.

Anyone who played Fallout 3 would know what they would do in the post apocalypse world! Raiding! Beating up anyone and everyone and taking they're stuff! Until that guy with the Rock-It launcher shows up...

Evil overlord following all the general guidelines. I'd also allow wanderers into my territory freely. Good for trade, which boosts loyalty.

Simple...I would be the mysterious stranger, you only show up whenever you want to, whenever you do show up you are awesome, and no one ever seems to be able to kill you.
or an immortal mutant who poses as a god (like harold) that is fun as well

I'd back up Wikipedia, Wikisource, Project Gutenberg, and all of the FM Manuals from GlobalSecurity and then guard the data with my life until a new civilization took hold and demonstrated that they were responsible enough to use it.

I would probably cause it.
Gentlemen, I present to you, Hari Seldon; the Founder of Psychohistory.

I would establish an isolated society of physical scientists and encyclopaedists on the other side of the globe, where they will fulfill the path narrowly chosen for them to begin anew a Second Foundation.

probably some sort of gun for hire, i wouldnt want to be a leader of a large group because everyone in a world like that wants to grab power. i'd just enjoy the lawlessness and perfect my killing skills

Badass doctor figure, like a combination of Mordin and Mad Max. I'll give medical aid to the survivors of whatever refuge I was attached to as well as anyone else who needs it, but the minute any bandit or raider gets greedy and wants to steal my meds, BAM! I put him down.

I'll take out your appendix with a combat knife, a bottle of whiskey and stick for you to bite down on or alternatively take a raider down with a bullet through the throat.

(I'm in the middle of my medical training atm, I own guns and I am an avid hunter)
wow, that's an unusual combo and - you are like the perfect surviver type for this scenario! "inject" you live, "blam" you die.
I would use my politics degree as it was intended. To take over the world. I would take over an arms factory as the head of a mob, and use arms as the new economic currency and to stave off the zombies and get the people I hate (most of civilisation) killed off while I live in a fortified utopia, letting in only people I like. Because just because you're skilled doesn't mean you aren't an asshole. And you become a threat too

i actually dont think i would be too shabby compared ot most people in organising some sort of society but maybe thats hubris

I'd probably just find a nice, big nuke and set it off by kicking it a few times. Besides death-by-pancake, I think that'd be a lovely, top-tier way to die.
Kicking a nuke would hurt your foot. Also, you won't be able to 'kick start' a nuke. If your electronics skill was high enough you might be able to trigger it, but why are you wasting your time killing yourself when you could be out there breaking into stuff and bettering your own meager existance.

Speaking of which, I'm going to join the enclave and be one of their scientists. They got the best technology and least mutations. Sure, their radio station sucks but who cares if you have a good quality of life?

I'd be an information broker/mercenary.
Buy information from one guy then sell it to multiple guys for a huge profit.
Then use the profit to make a network of information brokers, spys and enforcers.
Bang now I own a nice chunk of the wasteland.

Probably huddle in the top floor of an appartment somewhere, boobytrap the whole lower floors. Then, every now and again, make my way through the booby traps and scavenge the wasteland for anything I might need. Preferably at night, when it's harder to be spotted.

Stay away from everyone, get socially backward, talk to my chair, die from an infectious disease I get in the wasteland and from not being able to get medical attention because I was to stupid to trust anyone.

What would you be do in a fall out style post apocalypse?

A mercenary? a scientist? a commoner to a new society? ETC. How would you adapt to/ exploit the post apocalyptic world.
I'd be the main cause of it. Those big red buttons are just too shiny NOT to push.........

Masked silent assassin and merc.
The one known for getting the job done with a minimum of fuss. Specialising in getting into and out of places others don't want me to.

Armoured in black with a scoped Remington 700 slung over one shoulder and a katana over the other.
Mateba auto-revolver holstered on the right thigh and a myriad knives on the left.
Rarely speaks. Lone Wolf.

No job too big, small or too weird refused.
Reasonable prices, souvenirs on completion.
Half payment up front, rest on completion.

That's my role.
Come nuclear wasteland, or zombie apocalypse, that's where you'll find me.

My role in the Apocaypse would be: Corpse leaning over the door mechanism, apparently he died trying to get away from the Nuclear Explosions.

Me and my friends had a plan just in case of an apocalypse. We would be the guys who Hijack the radio waves in order to help the protagonist(s). My friends scouting of course... until we get a military on our side.

I'd loot the hat shops for a cowboy hat, the gun shop for a sweet shotgun and shells for it, trying to steal a Humvee from someone who stole it from the car salesman and store the Humvee with a lot of shells, guns and food to last me and three people for two months.
At the trunk of the Humvee will the fridge be at (I'll put a solar power sattelite-thingie on the roof to generate energy) reinforced by a sturdy lock, and only I have the key.

Now, that's my "look at me cause I'm so imaginary" answer.

My real plan would be to stick with other survivors (preferably some I know) and speak my mind whenever I can.
Hopefully with a shotgun and a cowboy hat...
