Title: How Many Days Could You Survive in a Zombie Apocalypse?
Post by: TheCommandTent on May 23, 2012, 08:34:32 PM
A fun, albeit somewhat arbitrary quiz.

Apparently I could make it 406 days.

399 Days. I'm working on getting healthier.

380 days of Zombieland sun and fun for me.
I wish there were more questions about bladed weapons. I picked a shotgun over a knife but a Claymore, broadsword, or Katana doesn't run out of ammo.

Assuming I didn't shoot myself in the head on day one, I'd last 380 days too.

I'm sorry. I have to ask. Is said shooting accidental or on purpose?  :o

Too close to call. I could see myself deciding not to intentionally shoot myself in the head and then accidentally shooting myself while putting the gun down.

Now that I give it more thought, the 380 day estimate may be wildly optimistic.

376 days for me. I plan to spend those days obliterating the walking dead, then spending my hours away from the violence working arduously to repopulate the planet.  ;D

364, not quite a year. I'm guessing I'm too soft and have no combat training or weapons.

Apparently I'd make it only 353 days, I suspect for much the same reasons as what Monty listed.

391.
Maybe flame-thrower would be a bad pick.
Hot damn! I always wanted to try a flame-thrower. More realistically I would go Katana and staff. My axe is a good plan B, I can swing the fibreglass axe all day.

402
if i could just make it to Jarhead's Manison and Smuck would show up also ...it would increase 10 000+ i bet  ;D
(so i hope i am in CONUS, probably at JFK for a connecting flight when the shit hits the fan)

...when i am here i would go to a nearby mediaval castle, includes an eases to denfend Bergfried with inside-well and a museum full of hit n slay arms inside the main buildings ;) ...and the tourist restaurants nearby will provide a stockpile of food to gether and store at a safer place inside the walls)

No surprise there.

I got 368.  I'd help loved ones, I don't own a firearm and I need to shed a lot of weight.

I ran this as if I were half my age and got 402.

There's no way survive in their estimation. I sense a Kobayashi Maru is appropriate.

364 days.  I stayed at home, hid in Walmart, and chose a shotgun as my weapon of choice.

I also came across this little gem of a test:

383 days but I go down with the satisfaction that knowing that Jarhead who probably sold his mother out to get a couple of extra days of not getting his brains chomped by zombies only has less than two months left!  If he cant make it any further than those last months have to be pretty grim by then

383 days - same as Con.  Perhaps we are room mates.

Seriously, always go with the weapon you know how to use which has a lot of ammo.  With Zombies you need some stand-off abilities with the weapon.  Too easy to get bit when using a bat or sword.  Shotgun works for me.

399 though some of the questions I thought were to simple.
I would have more then one weapon.  I actually do have a number of places in mind to go and I live in a gated community with real gates and not much population density.

I got the same score as my brother from a different mother.

And Star too! The three of us would do rather well. Unless one of us went wondering off in search of 'tang and got infected, which is always a threat.

Infected tang is always a bad thing even if you are not facing a zombie apocalypse.
