[OOC] Surviving: The End (character-centric; modern zombie survival)

[Exit]

Tyty :]

All of them have been great so far. I can't wait to read the rest either.

[Darkraven]

Yeah, that was awesome. Man, he must be really, really hungry.

[MST3K 4ever]

Okay I put mine up...it's somewhat...unique.

[Darkraven]

Haha there seems to be a lot of government officials running around. I guess their most recent recruitment drive was far more successful than planned. Anyway, I kinda like it. My only grip with your piece is the punctuation in the dialogue. It seems to be missing a lot of commas, for example, and it messed up the pacing and therefore my reading experience.

[AnriuSB]

Other than some minor punctuation errors and typos it was very nice, very good post.

[MST3K 4ever]

I made some edits.

Let this be a lesson...never type under the influence of pain meds.

[AnriuSB]

Oh that is awesome xD

Lol. I'd imagine some very creative writing could be produced from that. Albeit littered in grammatical errors.

Nice post btw.

Thank you...and this nice thing about it...I left in more than I took out...my whole feeling was "GO FOR IT! Leave it in there!" Quite freeing in that sense.

The stark differences in posts, with perspectives and character thoughts, actions and mentalities is very interesting to me. I'm gunna be working on a post myself tomorrow. Just not sure whose....

[MST3K 4ever]

I might be taking on a second character down the road.....I haven't decided if I will yet. Need to think about it.

Like the flashbacks....can't wait to see what happens when we get this RP going.

[Darkraven]

Writing a second flashback for my character...

EDIT: Posted.

[drummer-dan]

Im going to wait until present day to post.

[Darkraven]

Who are you? I don't see your name on the list...

[Azseth]

Hey, everyone. A few things:
A: I'm gunna be catching up today, maybe tonight, but as of tonight, anyone who's "in" will have their char's posted in the CHARACTER OVERFLOW THREAD.
B: I accepted 2 late entries based on looking at a few things about them. I trusted they'd fit in nice and all that. So Canoli and FinalCatharsis are in.
C: This question was brought up several times, a few times indirectly. In regards to the CDC Survivors, Officially, they start with NO GEAR!! However, they SHOULD, once aware of the situation (which will be revealed in my first live/current IC post), they'd most likely strip their rooms and stuff, and make ready for the trip.
D: Hand in hand with the above, there is an armory, but Bradley locked it. Whoever goes through his stuff (I'd assume Jon, since he's over him and would do it almost immediately), will find a key card giving them access and they'll find the following:
#20 9mm glocks
#5 12 gauge 870 Remington tactical shotguns (8 round capacity, 9 if shell is chambered)
#25 18 round extended magazines for the glocks, loaded.
#75 18 round extended magazines , empty.
#15 boxes of 9mm ammo, 75 rounds per box.
#15 boxes of birdshot shotgun shells.
#15 boxes of 00/SG shotgun shells.
#20 survival/pilot's knives. These are a single piece of metal, so unlikely to break/snap. The bottom can be unscrewed to reveal a compass, 5 waterproof matches, a magnesium strip and 3 water purification pills.
#30 empty plastic canteens.
#30 empty ILBE pack systems

ILBE SYSTEM

E: All CDC rooms are laid out the same, with the following exception. On the second floor, where the 3rd floor armory is, there is a FOOD STORAGE room. On the first floor, there is an office with medical supplies.
F: There was some confusion about the infection. So here is a nutshell version. People can be infected but show no "real" signs for several hours, up to 36 hours. In that time, they may show slight flu-like symptoms, but they are HIGHLY contagious in every manner of speaking. After that, they start to get dramatically worse until they die. At this point, it can be 15 minutes to several hours before the corpse reanimates. At this point, the ONLY way to spread the infection is via bite/saliva.

G: Last, I plan to kick this RP off NO LATER THAN NEXT SUNDAY, 3/16. Get your shit right in the meantime!

Last, H or whatever, if there is something unclear, or you want to work something out, please ask.

In regards to LETTER E, the food store and medical storage. Floors 1 and 2 are lost and have a number of infected. The stairway is mildly blocked, but the hallway going towards the stairs to the floors below are PACKED full of stuff in a fairly secure barricade, AND the actual doors are locked.

To get to the floors below, they will have to removes those barricades.

Last, there are stairs going up to the roof, where there is a helicopter with VERY little fuel. Enough to take off, get about 1/10th a mile away and land, or crash.

There also may or may not be 10 to 20 infected up there....

[Canoli]

Great to be in. Hello people :) I'm imagining quite a lot of that ammo going to waste in the first few hours as a bunch of panic-stricken people first-hand encounter infected for the first time, and doing so with plenty of guns and bullets.

[finalcatharsis]

Hey Canoli. And everyone else! Glad to be a member here, and hope I don't disappoint! In the future, please feel free to give me all the constructive criticism you want regarding my posts! There's a lot of info here and I might have missed something. So excited to be starting in the CDC building! It's gonna be tough getting out.

If any of you other CDCs want to chat and organize characters, hit me up! You might get a message from me too. Check out my character in the Overflow soon!

[AnriuSB]

So Az, just a question about the 'Immune' title. What exactly does that mean?

Edit: And afternoon newest members, I do hope to have many wonderful rp shenanigans with you in the future.

Edit: Also, Az, The convenience store that we will all be meeting up at, what is it called?
