zombie power
Jul 7 2008, 8:31 PM EDT Although solar power is the easiest to come by and the most plentiful, to combat boredom one might consider constructing a means of obtaining power from the living dead. I'm not suggesting we wire them up like the matrix... although it would be cool.... I am suggesting as so many listed above that you construct a dynamo generator, with zombies as the source of power. If we don't feel bad killing them we can't really feel all that badly about putting them in a hamster wheel to power our TV and looted XBox. If you think about it, it's perfect, as long as you don't actually bring them into your fortress to do so, you have a endless or renewable energy source that will run/shamble all day and all night, it's much better than spending all day on a stationary bike, only to have zombies come after you now that you are too tired to run away. 4 out of 5 found this valuable.

Jul 7 2008, 11:50 PM EDT ¡BRAVO! And, after you run one to death, just toss another in after it and you’re set for life. If the skin job don’t wanna run, just whip him a few times and he’ll learn his place. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

Jul 14 2008, 5:07 PM EDT "Zombies are sloooow... I don't think you're gonna get much power."Hes talking about alot. The problem would be moving the zombies and putting them in the power wheel or whatever. Unless you can completely stop their mouth, legs, arms, and somehow carry them their. I mean you could carry them but its alot of work. Do you find this valuable? |

Jul 14 2008, 6:57 PM EDT Yeah, but you'd need a geared system, and a hell of a lot of zombies. I'll be staying in my wind-powered fortress, thanks. Do you find this valuable? |

Jul 14 2008, 9:41 PM EDT "Hes talking about alot."First of all, no, I'm not. Second, and more importantly, QUICKRACE, you know better than to make assumptions about skin jobs. Shame on you. For all we know, they can outrun a horse, going faster than them and for days on end without tiring in the least. Assuming, and I don't like to do that, that they actually ARE slower than the normie they (presubably) once were, they we can do something else with them. Do you find this valuable? |

RE: zombie power
Jul 14 2008, 10:07 PM EDT Don't tase me, bro. I came up with that username when I was 8 years old and wanted to sign up for a game. I asked my mom what my username should be, and she just randomly blurted that out. Ever since, it has stuck. Well, the Max Brookes zombies are slow, so if that happens then the zombie-turbine wheel goes in the shed. But if they're rage zombies, crazy sprinting zombies, or close to human strength zombies, then I'll buy one of your zombie excercise wheels, for sure. Do you find this valuable? |

Jul 14 2008, 10:30 PM EDT Heck, we could even do weight loss ads! "This is Andering. After joining the Solanum weight loss program, he lost 18 kilograms, most of his vital organs, and considerable amounts of flesh, as well as generating power for an entire fortress! Visit your local Solanum Centre today!" Do you find this valuable? |

(No, seriously, I do- That control rig, that's me in the pic.) Quick- I have no comment on your name (good, bad or indifrent), but you know better than to make assumptions- Or say Solanum near me. *Shoots quick with a taser* Do you find this valuable? |
