All of you DO have the option of NOT going for it, which means NOT sending an answer to the unlocking question below...

...if you don't want the Gas Can, that is.



UNLOCKER - What is the connection between bombardier Kermit Beahan (the one who dropped the atomic bomb on Nagasaki) and the 1983 TV film "The Day After"?


Send your PMs to me. You have 24 hours.

cheebacheeba 05-20-2011 09:10 PM

I like this item. I'd like my two of my team to have one.
I will not get the item myself, as the load should be exchangeable to reduce fatigue if/when the cans become full.

Assuming Fuel is accessible...
*Fuel any vehicles we come across for a while.
*Quick Fire, either for warmth (don't want to take to long lighting something) *Molotovs or as a large incendiary to clear/effect a wider area.

Not to mention the can can also be used both offensively and defensively.
An empty gas can would still have a lot of heft to it, and would be lighter.
Could be a workable "shield" of sorts, and could also assist in battering opponents and/or environmental obstructions.

V - Can you give us a team inventory update?
Thanks.

_____V_____ 05-21-2011 12:07 AM

ChronoGrl 05-21-2011 06:44 AM

OK - Sorry, SORRY I've been AWOL.

I was traveling and then came back and wound up in the hospital...

But Rayne, Roshiq, I'M BACK. And WOW I have an awesome Team - sorry I haven't been around.

...

V - Sorry to be a pain - Can you send a link to the page that says what I need to do? Do I just go around grabbing stuff or is there limits and rules?

_____V_____ 05-21-2011 06:48 AM

http://www.horror.com/forum/showthre...t=57712&page=2

Scroll down.


Right now, you just go around grabbing stuff. Rayne is doing just fine as your leader atm.

ChronoGrl 05-21-2011 07:36 AM

Well, that's not too surprising, that Rayne is a smartie. ;)

Lady - Tell me what you need me to do.

_____V_____ 05-21-2011 08:45 AM

And we have THREE more WINNERS of the Gas Can...

Straker, Ferretchucker and TheWickerFan!


Congrats, people.

ferretchucker 05-21-2011 02:52 PM

Things are about to get Tooooaaaasty.

ChronoGrl 05-21-2011 03:43 PM

Yeah, I wasn't paying attention to the deadline, sorry Guys. I'll have to make judgements on my own instead of waiting for Rayne (if that's OK with you, Hun).

V - So the anxiety here is that there aren't any rules around "dropping" stuff that you may not need.... I assume that you can drop stuff later?

_____V_____ 05-21-2011 08:39 PM

You can decide for yourself if you want a particular item or not, Chrono.

And yes, you can drop/barter/exchange stuff later, only when you have all 15 items with you for your journey.

ChronoGrl 05-22-2011 05:52 AM

Oh, Durr, well, I'll keep that in mind and not hesitate next time. :o

Thanks, V!

CHAPTER ONE - FIRST LANDING


Cheeba, all 3 of you are headed out of the city in Wickerfan's car which Bwind is driving. Your route consists of a sports club, a pawn shop, and a bar. Assuming that TWO of them have been overridden by zombies, which ONE place would you want to check out before you go out of the city?



MissMacabre, zombies are headed straight for you three and your car is smashed. There is no visible help coming from any direction.

Assuming that you were driving towards Return's house, do you make a dash for it? Do you prefer to stay and fight off the zombies? Or do you want to head into the nearest shelter (a building or a house) and bolt yourselves in?



Rayne, as soon as you approach Seri's home you notice that zombies roam freely all around it. Part of you wants to flee but you have to see if your family is still there. You have three choices for an entrance - the front door, the back door or climb in through the roof. Where would you want to go through?




Send your PMs to me. Your choices form the next part of your scenarios.

bwind22 05-23-2011 08:49 PM

What's a sports club?

_____V_____ 05-23-2011 08:58 PM

A place where you can play sports. Smaller and medium sized ones usually house a gymnasium, golf practice rinks, tennis courts, and indoor stuff like carrom, chess, etc. Larger ones have full blown golf courses, bigger gymnasiums, basketball courts, baseball practice rinks, etc.

cheebacheeba 05-24-2011 02:04 AM

If food/drink comes into this scenario, I'll vote the bar.
If food/drink is irrelevant, then it'll be the pawn shop for me.
I'm open to hear from my team though?

bwind22 05-24-2011 07:56 PM

I've never heard of a sports club and after reading the description, I don't think we have anything like that around here. I don't think we'd find much useful there though.

Bar might have some food and booze, but a pawn shop would usually have guns, ammo, generators, flashlights plus various things that could be used for weaponry (shovels, pruning shears, etc..) Once we are armed, we can just take food and drink from other groups of survivors that are less equipped.

I say pawn shop for sure.

ferretchucker 05-25-2011 02:50 AM

Sports clubs can be useful. Lots of sports equipment useful for fighting off hoards with - golf clubs, tennis rackets, hockey sticks etc. But you're right, the pawn shop with have the most in it...

roshiq 05-25-2011 02:52 AM

Where's Rayne??!!

Back door will be fine I guess.

ChronoGrl 05-25-2011 03:52 AM

Yeah, I just wouldn't want to go in through the roof - It's a good way for one of us to get hurt.

_____V_____ 05-25-2011 05:02 AM

On that note, the FOURTH item of interest -


http://www.smokersworld.info/wp-cont...4/tobacco1.jpg

Tobacco.

PROs - Smoke it, chew it, snuff it, (some) medicinal value.

CONs - Addictive, no utility, cause of diseases.



You know the drill.

cheebacheeba 05-25-2011 05:36 AM

I'll say yes, in the event there's a trade element in the game.

roshiq 05-25-2011 07:13 AM

Yes!
.................................. :D

bwind22 05-25-2011 07:36 AM

Oh yes, for sure. I ain't going through the apocalypse without any smokes.

Oops! Sorry dear! :o

horrorzack 05-25-2011 01:01 PM

no. I hate any type of nicotine.

cheebacheeba 05-25-2011 04:05 PM

We currently have no food and drink bwind, so my vote goes with the bar as does wickers - who also pointed it out that there may also be weapons there too. At very least, bottles for the molotovs which we may make down the road.

and sometimes bar owners have rifles behind the counter.

_____V_____ 05-25-2011 08:51 PM

And we hit 5!


UNLOCKER - According to "28 Days Later", if you actually did travel 27 miles North East of Manchester, where would you end up reaching?

neverending 05-25-2011 08:58 PM

...................................

Whoops- forgot to send it in PM... lol....
