Zombies have taken over the world, and you're trapped in a hotel of 30 floors, it's you and your friend. You both of shotguns and ton's of ammo. You know there are survivors above you, but if you go up, the zombies will get bigger, and have a bigger chance of dieing. If you go down some, there are few zombies and a better chance of living. What do you choose? If you go up to the survivors how will you survive? If you go down how will you get away?

(sorry if there was a topic like this, I couldn't find it.)

I go up 3 stories. Me and my friend are now low on ammo and cornered But then the survivors burst out of a nearby room and blast the zombies. We then find out a nuke will be dropped on the city to stop the problem. We then steal a car and drive off and all live awesome-ly ever after

End.

Blast my down to the bottom floor with my shotgun and tons of ammo. Simple.

I blast my way to the top floor and gather the survivors, then we blast to the bottom and seal the building.

I kill my friend, butcher him/her and then eat him so I can pretend to be a zombie who has just eaten a human and by telling humorous zombie jokes (why did the zombie cross the road? To eat the people on the other side!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA) and help them eat the other survivors to gain the other zombies trust. As soon as I have their trust and respect I tell them that across the ocean are the more juicy humans and if you jump of a cliff into the sea the current will take you to them.

Soon word spreads and the entire zombie population is waiting for me to tell them to jump off the cliffs. I tell them to jump and they do, however they land on rocks and die. After a while the zombies stop dying and the pile of bodies starts to get as high as the cliffs so we are forced to move further a long the beach. After a while the surviving zombies become curious as to why they are all dying and not being swept into the ocean and to the promised lands. It is then that I tell the Zombies that the ones dead (and not so dead) on the rocks where not worthy for Zombie God and his son, Zombie Jesus and then promise them that only through me can they find the love of Zombie God. From this I create the first Zombie religion and from it I become very rich and well fed. After a few months of this I tell the zombies that Zombie god told me that the only way for salvation is from mass suicide. I have all the zombies eat their own heads until only one remains.

A young, pretty zombie who I have had my eye on for months. I make this zombie my wife and together we rule the Zombie kingdom as king and queen. However as fresh meat runs out my bride starves while I survive on mango's. When she dies I am forced to eat her and then I find myself alone in my own kingdom.

This is when I travel to the promised lands where Juicy meat is plenty. On the travel I conclude that I am no longer human, and was not in fact ever human. At heart I was a zombie and a zombie I shall stay. However my boat is lost in a storm and I become stranded on a desert Island where I live of coconuts for the rest of my life.

As I die I write a journal of my life and in 2157 it is found and turned into a motion picture.

Yes there was a topic like this, but that's okay, theses types can turn out to be very different from one another.

Anyway, I block off the top floor, go downstairs with my freund, use them as bait outside then run to a car and escape.

Well, I'd use whatever means necessary to destroy the stairs allowing zombies to get to the floor I'm on and then I'd fight my way up to the survivors. We'd have plenty of food since most of the nicer hotels have spas, gyms, and restaurants on the higher floors (spas and gyms have all kinds of hydrating drinks and healthy snacks). Then we'd just do whatever we want since the stairs would be destroyed. We'd pretty much have the top few floors completely to ourselves until someone comes (probably a PMC or some other private agency cause I don't trust the government to do shit for its citizens).

EDIT: Oh, and I'd be listening to "For What It's Worth" by Buffalo Springfield and a few other awesome songs of awesomeness over and over again on my iphone while killing zombies :)
EDIT (again):

To older escapists, should the Almighty zombie evacuation plan make a triumphant return?

Ultrajoe:
To older escapists, should the Almighty zombie evacuation plan make a triumphant return?

It was fun. Why not let the newer Escapist enjoy themselves on that winning thread.

I break into my Emergency Zombie Kit (or EZ-K) that I always take with me on extended vacations, and retreive:
Scoped crossbow with 20 bolts
.357 magnum revolver with two speedloaders
Crowbar
iPod with my Emergency Zombie Music (Or EZ-M) playlist on it
Rucksack with 5 MREs, a tent, 5 flares, a first-aid kit and a signaling mirror
A canteen

My freind, whom has no zombie kit, using a shotgun he had, will act as the bait. Once we have become absolutley sure that shit has indeed become real, we calmly walk out to find ourselves surounded by zombies. My freind, having not read the book, begins blasting away at the torso of a zombie. Meanwhile, I score 3 kills with magnum rounds straight to the brain.
My freind appears to have been eaten, so I kill the three zombies that had devoured him, followed by a quick reload. Using a nearby fire ax, I go down the stairs to the next floor, then climb back up, destroying them as I go. I continue taking the stairs out as I go up, taking care of the occasional zombie that made it into the stairwell. By the time I make it to the roof, I only have three shots left in my magnum. I see a helicopter nearby so I drop a flare and get out my signaling mirror. They land, it's a military rescue team, they check me for bites. While they're checking, I notice a zombie behind them. I yell 'GET DOWN!' then shoot a crossbow bolt right between its eyes. They give me 20 grand to keep my mouth shut.

Definitely. As far as I can remember I never posted in it. Sure was fun to read though.

iPod with my Emergency Zombie Music (Or EZ-M) playlist on it

Fool, you need your ears to hear the scufflings of the zombies! If you block it out with music, you open yourself up to back attacks!

Then, ironically, i go to resurrect the living dead...

Or should i just cut out the original zombie plan and paste it here?

Shotguns? I'd rather have swords. Can I have swords? I'm using swords. Swords are awesome.

Anywho, me and my bud cut a path upwards with our shiny swords through all the zombies. Then, we bring all the survivors to the roof of the building. We lock the door to the roof of the building, it will last long because it is made of steel, like our swords. The survivors stay on the roof while my friend and I climb down the side of the building to get supplies. We hack and slash our way through the street until we find a running car. We take the car, being sure to run over as many zombies as possible, to the nearby "mall", as you americans say.
At the "mall", we deadify a couple hundred zombies and make our way to the grocery store. There, we grab a roll of bin bags and proceed to fill it with food. Then we go to the chemist and grab a bunch of first-aid kits. We also grab a couple doses of morphine. We then go to the hardware store and grab several chainsaws. My friend has to go back and liberate some potato sacks, because the bin bags are too weak for the chainsaws.
When we get back, we scale the side of the building and bring all the survivors the supplies. We give a couple of the more level-headed survivors the chansaws, so that they may protect themselves if the door gives way. We take two for ourselves, because we only have two swords each and our first ones are close to breaking. We also take a first-aid kit each.
Next, we climb down the side of the building and make our way to the airport. Our first swords break as we are entering the gate, so we start using the chainsaws. We chainsaw our way to a helicopter, and then my friend guards me as I attempt to figure out how to operate the damn thing. His chainsaw runs out of juice, so I give him my one. By this point, the zombies have ceased coming, so his presence is really just a precaution. He gets bored and uses up all of the morphine. I get enraged and beat him. He laughs, because he's high and he can't feel it. When I figure out how to work the chelihopper, I vehemently toss him in and proceed to make my way to the survivors. I then fly them to safety, making several trips because there is so many.

You must not have looked very hard. I swear, no other forum on the internet is as obsessed with Zombies as The Escapist.

Anyways-- given two guys, two shotguns and unlimited ammo, I'd blaze up to the survivors and save the day.

go up grab the other survivors, put the shotguns and ammo in a backpack and then go back outside and start taking a baseball bat to the zombies as a i briskly jog away from them

unless they're some sort of Romero type zombie and then i find the most cliche type ppl and toss them to the zombies as i make my escape

Shoot yourself and join the zombies. It's inevitable.

Agreed.

*Cracks Knuckles*

Why copy the old one when you can write it anew!

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________

The massive gate falls back, in front of you the zombie horde of millions groans in waves and their teeth gnash at the sight of you, finally, as you open the door.

There you stand.

Black leather jacket swirling as the hellish creation behind you purrs.

Everything is perfectly planned.

A massive scar adorns your face, black gloves with the fingers cut out adorn your hands and turn, jacket swishing... into the blackness behind you. The zombies are fools, they shuffle forward towards the open gates. From within comes the roar of some beastly engine and then, with a laugh that would make satan shiver, the sound of a switch being flicked.

Then it begins

From out of the mouth of that black, massive garage screams the God-Vehicle, Rolling Righteousness 2...

It is Massive, tires from monster trucks and the chassis of an M1 Abrams. Thats right you grease sucking basement troll, its a freaking Motorbike-Tank. Its Huge Turret has been augmented by the addition of a minigun and a triple barreled Bushmaster cannon. Along its sides are missiles and lazers. Thats right, lazers.

You grip the handlebars (yeah, thats right, you sit on top with handlebars, try not to ejaculate right here and now because there's more to come) and cackle, deaths-head mask on your face and custom made gun in your hand. Its half-gun, half Katana, And all awesome. A Desert Eagle built into the hilt and a power pack at the base to electrify the blade.

You and the God-Vehicle rumble like some Deity-made-flesh through the streets, your guns are the will of hell as they kill thousands of zombies every second. Turret blazes and mighty spiked wheels (Yeah bitches, spikes, Electrified spikes!) run down the zombie horde. A massive gout of zombie blood sprays up behind you, but you don't get any in your mouth because your skull-shaped helmet is also a gas mask. Your skull/gas mask laughs and sings as it ploughs through the hordes.

From massive Speakers mounted on Rolling Righteousness 2 blast the greatest and most awesome songs ever made. Alternating between Metallica, Guns and Roses, And Tenacious D you cackle as you and your Katana/Gun blast aside scores of zombies.

Ahead looms a gigantic fuel depot, the fumes would kill anyone who enters so you leap off your awesome Tank/Bike and the autopilot takes over (Oh, i forgot, The love-child of Shodan/Glados/HAL/The Superintendent and the Autopilot from WALL-E drives your tank for you, and he has the voice of Sean Connory, And never turns evil... Also, his name is Boba Fett).

You land among the zombies like a fallen star, a pissed off one, and begin to Pwn the bitches with your electrified Katana, built in Deagle blasting those too far away as you carve into the hordes.

As Boba Fett starts to crack open the massive fuel tanks you start to get overwhelmed by the zombies.

But you are prepared.

You pull out your 5 SMG's Wrath, Justice, Malice, Hate and Rage and start to juggle them. As they move, you tape the triggers down and wheel and juggle, cutting down zombies under the hail of bullets from the plasma guns (Oh right, they shoot plasma bullets, i should have mentioned that). Each one kills 50 zombies as it is made of pure energy and passes right through them.

Just when it seems you would win, a massive boom comes from within the fuel Depot.

Out comes Boba Fett, behind him a pure wave of petroleum rolls into the streets.

You jump on top and switch off the autopilot, your long white ponytail (Oh yeah, did i mention that?) streaming in the wind as the God-Vehicle Surfs The Wave Of Petrol

On a wave of petrol you ride, the pirates of the Caribbean theme blasting so loud it kills zombies too close as you storm through the streets.

Zombies defeated

__________________________________________________________________________________________

That's how you survive a zombie apocalypse.

Not by being a pussy who tries to run, but by having a Tank/Bike named Boba Fett and an electrified Gun-Katana.

Im sure as hell not saving you when the zombies arrive, because there's only room on the God-Vehicle for 2... and none of you are beautiful women.

God Dammit , I was just going to say that

I'd rocket jump to the 3rd floor. Then I'd grab the BFG with Quad damage and start my rampage.

I needn't worry about zombies. I've been sharpening my Holy Avenger +16 especially for such an occasion.

Oh, and did I mention it shoots THIRTY DICE LIGHTNING??????

*Cue Iron Maiden blasting in background*

Sunglasses. Check.

Leather jacket. Check.

Blast up the stairs like the wrath of god and blow out the undead bastards in a fight scene worthy of no just epic, but LEGENDARY .

Oh, and make sure my friend has a camera rolling so I can post the whole thing on this thread later.

If we have the same ammo anyway, won't it make more sense to just blast down?

id go up top meet with the others and start heading down the fire escape if there is one if not were screwed

what kind of zombies are we talking about: the classic stumbling barely walks faster than a turtle ones or the ones that run and jump with superhuman ability....?

We have literally billions of topics like this. BILLIONS!
