Zombie Apocalypse: The Sign-up

[TDK]

"I do not care what you think"

I can see how this may be confusing, but if you haven't noticed, my character is me. =O

I am stating my character's opinion. An emotional reaction? In a high stress situation? Perish the thought!

And I put tactics in quotes because you're using it as a buzzword. "No, we can't go out and follow a plan! We have to use TACTICS! *MY*tactics!"


I'm not going to run through and counterpoint each thing you said (again), so I will just say this:

Right and wrong doesn't matter in the apocalypse.
Furthermore, right and wrong are completely abstract and subjective concepts in the first place.

So if you say its 'wrong' to leave someone behind they aren't making an attempt to come and will be useless anyway, that's an example of something I would not care about. Oh, random jerk is going to get eaten? Don't care, his problem.


Also:

There's a lot of stuff we can do that you can't, and there's just as much stuff that you can do that we're better at than you.

Like what? The only thing that comes to mind is one of the group has a gps enabled phone and I don't.

Also, I can't drive a stick-shift.

So that's one issue of possession and one thing one of you might be able to do that I cannot.

I know how to create electrical traps. Though I'd need some wiring, knowledge of where the circuit box is, and a fullproof ground. I figure that is a good defense in the future, because while the trap would probably short out the whole building it would cover the insides of at least one zombie with third degree burns.

It is kinda like knowing medicine, because I know how not to get shocked I also know how to make a situation that would shock the ever loving shit out of someone.

Ah. That makes slightly more sense.

Okay, people, how about this: When we're talking about ourselves and to each other, we talk in first person and second person. When we're talking about our characters, or each others characters, third person. That'll save some confusion. Unless Pyrosnine joins belatedly.

Like what? The only thing that comes to mind is one of the group has a gps enabled phone and I don't.

Your bio says something about Pete being good and science and engineering, but he hasn't shown much of that, yet. I'm sure he will to some degree, but I still have a sneaking suspicion that others are better at it, both the engineering and the science. We'll see, though.

Wildneress survival is another thing... Collin knows about it, and it sure as hell is gonna be useful later.

Everyone is in some way good with their heads, the more intelligent people on your team, the greater the liklihood that someone will come up with a great idea to save all our lives.

Bard's good with Rifles and Fire. Both will be useful in time. I mean, yeah, Pete has played airsoft. But Airsoft gives you good aim, at most. But even if your aim's pretty good, you need to know how to maintain a gun, handle and load it as well as fire it. People who've owned and have been firing actual guns would be better at that than you, even though Pete's experience would probably make him way better at it than, say, Phil is.

Krogo has computer skills, which will definitely help us while we're still near civilization.

Phil/Impact is less useful, but he's smart, knows a lot about science (like I said, especially biology), plus the whole tactics thing.
...
YES THAT IS SO TOTALLY A VALID SKILL.

Plus, he can climb. That can be useful.

Mauve is smart and good at self-defense.

Overcast is good with guns as well (though only the firing), and his technician skills can help us a lot.

Pete has a good skill set, but unless you're saying he can do everything we can do, he certainly could use our help!
