Braille

Keep in mind that you will more than likely be tagging on gritty or uneven surfaces. Or surfaces that are exposed to the elements. A letter written in braille can easily look completely different if smeared a little or part is rubbed off. If this happens, you partner may very well be heading to an are filled with zombies instead of the safehouse because a little rain smeared the paint.

The biggest problem with navigating by braille is that you need to be able to FIND it in the first place. If you're so blind that you can only read with your fingers, even finding it will be difficult and dangerous when there are hoards of zombies running around and you can only use rough locational estimates based on their moans and growls to avoid them.And yes, braille is a raised dot of metal or plastic. Have you even SEEN braille? Do you find this valuable? |

Sorry man, but the average blind dude is just straight up f*cked, because if you can't see, you can't aim your shots/strikes as well.

My favorite part is everyone assumes it has to be etched into the wall, and we're all supposed to fiddle around the apocalypse feeling for the right bumps and debits... Spray paint seems to be a pretty good medium. The thugs in my neighborhood swear by it. And the only way the city seems to be able to deal with it is with more paint... Third, painting over a code for 'safe house' and replacing it with the symbol for ‘danger’ is nice and easy. Lastly, the new economy of Beans and Bullets should make paint just about the cheapest stuff you can find. As for Braille itself as 'the code', even slightly smeared or dirty, Braille is a 26 symbol code from a pool of 46,656 possible. As luck would have it, they chose the 26 that looked the least like each other... to prevent misunderstandings. Or we can all learn Elvish... Doesn't really matter to me. lol Do you find this valuable? |
