Ok,
My question to Brooke is WHY do the zombies always win? *note to Sgt Cross.. this is how intel is gathered.* LOL!
They don't always win, but it really depends on how smart the people are. I'm sure if there ever was a zombie outbreak us zombie loving freaks would survive pretty easily.Quote:

If learning how and why means I have to up my cardio (Rule 1 in Zombieland) or the people in the models forget to follow rule 2, then i wanna know! LOL
LOL the double tap. Well lets see, there are a crap load of factors to take in to run in he simulator or scenarios. There is location, time, place, rural or urban, how smart of fit the people are. Really what you want to be is pretty decent size, strong, armed to the teeth (so a gas station clerk is a good idea) and in great condition. And if you're a welder you could armor up a car get to the nearest gas station pickup a zombie killing machine and get the hell out of there. That or be an astronaut.Quote:

My only fear is that the talented team behind the podcast will soon realize they can make a lot more money elsewhere... but for now it's amazing to be a fan. :-)
I can't say I have any Zombie connections (besides looking like one in the morning) but I like 28 days & weeks later. I'm really into games too, like most of you here it seems, and I've met the lead designer on Left 4 Dead. :-)
Thanks for reading peeps,
Glenn
Kc, the lead writer/producer for the show has said he'll see the whole story through, and he said that to do that he's going to do 4 seasons, so we're not even half way through it yet.Quote:

I'll buy the show for $5, just to make sure that it never happens! ;)
In out models there are a lot of factors, but mainly the zombies win because the human birth rate is zero (time frame is less than 9 months) and the Zombies don't die of natural causes. So, they better get busy in the Colony and the tower to replenish the casualties.Quote:

Then of course babies have to have attention and special kinds of food which would just make it a burden to have a child.Quote:

The only chance for human survival would be to find a cure/vaccine or to kill all the infected en mass. Maybe if they drop a sweat bomb to lure them into a pit and then light them on fire, but killing them one at a time won't work. I'm hoping for some "super science" sort of like in I am Legend where they find out what caused the outbreak and a cure. That means they will have to capture some and study them. How fun would that be? :D
Holy cow Brooke! Zero births is the deciding factor? We're talking generations of occupation by the infected then and not just a few years?
I have to look at current events and say that since we've been dealing with Iraq for over 20 years now, kids who were babies at the time of the Kuwait Invasion are participating in the war efforts now.
Having said that, wouldn't the kids who are born at the onset of the invasion (if they're hidden and not eaten) be the warriors to fight the battles for the next 50 years?
Hello everyone, I'm new here. I started listening last night and I LOVE this, I've spent all day just listening, chapter by chapter.

Since then I have shared this show with many of my friends who in turn shared it with others.
Nice to not be the only newbie on the forums.Quote:

Other than that, I guess all you need to know about me is that I play lots of video games, I'm in school for writing, and I constantly map out my zombie survival plan on a day-to-day basis. Looking forward to getting to know you all!
I'm glad you could FINALLY join us!Quote:
