What is the ZSDW Bar?
The ZSDW Bar is any of several discussion threads dedicated to off topic conversation. Talk in the bar is fun and lighthearted and there are occasional bouts of imaginative storytelling where everyone gets to add their part of the story. Think of it as a real bar, where you can come in, order a drink, and chat with the regulars about whatever you want. But this isn't any bar. You'll notice that epic gun battles, amazing stories, and strange events occur on a daily basis.

The ZSDW Bar traces its roots across cyberspace. In the beginning, there was no specific discussion thread for members to vent their woes and excitements of the day. A place where we could sit down and chat about anything was needed and so the first Bar was created.

A (Fictional) History of the Bar:

The first Bar was founded late one night by a group of friends that took up refuge in an old warehouse to swap stories and clean their guns. As it got more popular, it became apparent that the main enemy of Bar patrons were Scenster Tweens and Twilight Fans. (See: The Bar, P27, Starting at post 715) After the angsty tweens infested the restroom of the bar with their evil spawn and attempted to infect several of the Bar patrons, a battle broke out.


The interior of the Bar
Preliminary Sketch of the Bar interiorIt was a FIREFIGHT! Rack upon rack of weapons were passed around, vehicles of every kind were put into service, and the bar-goers took the attack to the tweens.

After the first epic battle with the tweens, a massive wall was constructed to ensure the security of the Bar against the nightly attacks. Watchtowers, a heli-pad, a hangar, and automatic machine gun turrets were all part of the Bar compound.

As the months went by, the Bar got more and more popular. Eventually its patronage grew too large for the establishment so the members of the Bar Security Force packed what they could into a convoy of military vehicles and headed out in search of a new place to call home. Demolition charges were rigged and the venerable Bar was brought down.

The second Bar was located on a small tropical island a short ways off the coast. There were no fortifications; the ocean was barrier enough against the emotional tweens and their angsty music. Palm fronds, beautiful hula girls, and fruity drinks abounded. However, with the original Bar destroyed, there was no force keeping the tween population in check on the mainland (and everybody knows that tween spawn hatches rapidly). One night a surprise attack decimated the now peaceful Bar.

In despiration, the regulars of the bar retreated to a converted missile silo located in Alaska and attempted to hold off against the tween attacks. The desolate location and frigid weather along with a strange biological infection and dark unexplored passageways of the missile silo almost lead to the demise of the bar for good. Thankfully, some of the original members decided to return to the original Bar Compound and re-open it.

The convoy arrived to find the old Compound in ruins. After setting up a defensive perimeter for a few nights until the walls could be rebuilt, the group headed inside and began digging through the wreckage and salvaging whatever was left.

The venerable old Bar was then recreated, reconstructed, and renovated and is now fully open for business,business. andLuckily enough, you are invited to come join in the fun!


What's In The Bar?

Well, new things get added every day, but mainly there are violent robots, power armor, automatic turrets, tons of weapons, and booze of every type. Including 9mm Glocks and White Zinfandel for you nancyboys.
