Well, say your local school has either been overrun by the undead, or there are other humans who don't want to play ball and say go away, are there any nearby locations which are easily defendable? If you live in a city and you don't plan on leaving, are there any other souped up schools/places where you can keep yourself alive? If you are in the countryside, or in the city and planning to get out, are there good places to lay low for a couple of days? Maybe get a local map of your surrounding area?

Your Dad sounds like a beast, so he maybe able to construct a small shelter if you decide to go the woodland route. Your Mum would definitely be a person of value with her medicinal knowledge. You might have to have to teach your sister a new skill set or something.

My preliminerary basics for my plans are:
1) Can you make it there?
2) Is it defendable?
3) Is it self-sustainable?

Cheers, TandC

I would probably head over to my local storage unit. we have tons of melee weapons there and some gas masks.

at this point, I have 3 options: go home, go to my bishop's house(who we can name bob), or go to the house of one of my friends, who we'll call Roy.

House:

pros: familiar, lots of weapons and ammo.

cons: lots of windows, surrounded by other houses.

bishop's house:

pros: really nice guy, I know him and his family well, they have lots of guns and have all gone shooting multiple times, he has a garden, he has many hidden weapons throughout his house, he's killed a bear in self defence, has an electric fence, and lives about a mile outside of town.

cons: really big family, lots of windows, and way too many religious movies for a sane person to handle.

Roy's house:

Pros: he lives several miles from other people, already expecting z-day, owns a large farm and lots of land, has a forge and workshop which him and his son craft weapons, traps, and gadgets in, has a son who is very skilled with two halves of a hedge trimmer, both very good at shooting and own lots of weapons, I know him very well.

cons: several miles away and is about as sane as me.

=D yay, we have begun to formulate a back up plan!

I personally would place my bets on your mate Roy's house as he seems to be in the same mindset as you. He has multiple skills for you to utilise and to use to your advantage. The travel distance might be a bit of a turnoff, but I think that the pros outweigh the cons on this one.

'Too many religious movies for a sane person to handle.' To be honest, I wouldn't really want to re-watch the Passion of the Christ again and again until the dvd player decides to up itself...

Roy was going through a hard time in his life, when he knelt down in prayer, and said he saw a vision of many major cities burning, and people running out of them in terror. A sign, perhaps?

my bishop doesn't have passion of the Christ. Mormons and Jews love each other too much for that.(we're bro's for life, man!)

Im not a believing person myself, but hey, if he sees SHTF and he is damn sure that everything will go bang, at least he's more prepared then me =)

My bad about Passion of the Christ, thought you were Christian. I assume (correct me if I am wrong) that you are in Utah then?

No, not in Utah, I'm actually on the Colorado/Wyoming border. Also, we're totally Christians... just saying. Another thing, you don't have to worry about me trying to alienate you. I'm not like that.

And about Roy, what weird is that he said he got a feeling that world war 3 is likely to lead to our downfall, and he said he also got the feeling that the government has already built several super weapons, one, when he started explaining to me, was exactly like my version of z-day, and I said "Roy, do the victims also have to watch as their bodies go off on a rampage?" and he said yes! There's no way either of us could have known about the others version, and yet they were completely identical.

coincidence? I think not.

"so yesterday, I posted my primary plan(which no one other than major afro payed any attention to) ...."
I didn't post in your thread because I didn't want to hurt your feelings.

But since you insist, here were my thoughts:

In order for your plan to get any better, [it is my opinion that] you need to change the way you think about certain things, and stop placing importance on the wrong things.

An example would be that you rated your Dad 5 out of 5 stars in Melee Combat (literally a perfect, unbeatable score) simply because he is a "Big" guy. This is irrelevant, and your little rating system tells me alot about you:

- You idolize your Dad, and there is nothing wrong with that.
- You get along with your sister probably about as well as anyone would expect siblings to at your age.
- You don't know much about grading criteria
- likewise for the categories upon which you placed grades

The school idea is not without merit (and understandable given it is the place you probably know best). And while I would not have done it that way, it could work -- provided you get your priorities straight. You attach too much importance to shooting skill.

Holy Crap! I have always wanted to go to Wyoming!=D

Well, damn, I suppose that there are somethings that you just can't explain. As I said earlier, if I was you, I would haul a$s when the time comes to Roy's house. He seems to have prepared rather thoroughly.

A couple of questions about Roy and the surrounding area. Are there actually that mainly people around you/Roy?

What kind of preparations has he made for SHTF?

Is the weather nice?

Im based out of Cheyenne Wy. Just wondering how close you were as far as being on the Wy/Co border. Also your friends place seems good, location, weapons, ability to survive, closest area of major population (Denver, Ft Collins)???

Just read your post about Wy and just wanted to say hi from the "cowboy state." you are right about going to Roy's also.
