It's the morning of the second day and you are starting to come to the conclusion that this whole zombie thing is for real after all & not some elaborate hoax or super big flashmoby thing. The carnage looks different than it does in the movies. It's less spectacular & almost seems fake, but there's something about it all that kinda disturbs you on a primal level & you're starting to freak out a little bit.
While you're burning discs & surfing the forums for what the admins have to say about the server, more pragmatic people are beginning to worry about water & food. They head to the supermarkets & buy the places out.
There are waiting lines at the gas stations that stretch around the block & prices rise by the hour. Traffic on the way out of town is gridlocked.
You spend the evening watching media coverage of political officials on one hand, reassuring the public that everything is fine and that everyone should go on with their lives as normal, lest the terrorists win...while, on the other, comes back after a short commercial break, showing reports of the first stage of the total evacuation of Dallas; where they believe the outbreak originated almost a week ago.
They cut to a live shot of one of the the suburban gas riots, and the reporter gets hit by a ricochet bullet in mid-sentence, right there on camera.
It's at that moment you truly accept that you live at the end of the world.
At least disco will be safe though.
After watching your neighbor eat his wife on your driveway through the blinds in the living room, you officially freak the f*** out and start packing a survival kit.
The next morning, you drive to a drugstore to stock up on some over the counter medical supplies (cause hey, you're no dummy) and are accidentally shot in the lung over the last bottle of aspirin by a hysterical soccer mom who had no idea how to properly use a gun.
You bleed out & die there in isle seven, missing the rest of the apocalypse.
Eventually, the zombie spread stops simply due to the total extinction of the human race.
The zombies, starving like they do, acquire a taste for all living flesh. Not just human.
After a few years, the zombies run out of food again...completely this time, and as a result soon enough after, rot away entirely.
By the time cockroaches discover how to make fire, and eventually, technology enough to decode binary, it wouldn't matter because by then, the discs you had the foresight to save disco on would have long since turned to dust anyway.

that's the kind of answer i wanted XD that could happen ...
you know what? im just goint to take this away before someone feels aluded... XDDDDDD
GTFO to where? there wont be anywhere that is safe. except maybe an oil rig. or my house.
I am putting a shit ton of treadmills on full speed around my house. with chainsaws on the far ends.
10 ft of concertina wire in front of that.
damn, i hope i can provide power to all that...
on the other note. the last thing i would do is log FL if there was a zombipocalypse.
i would be to busy figuring out how im gonna get 42 Treadmills to my house.
and remember... theres always Skype to get in touch with you guys.

Well, to answer your question about where I'd be gtfo'ing to?
Away from major population centers. (I live closeish to some decently populated areas)
I'd probably try to scurry through smaller towns in the area for any basics I don't already have.
A decent 'first in' bag (medical bag), canned foods, extra fuel for a vehicle, that sort of thing.
I'd have already grabbed some changes of clothes (Yes, I'd still be concerned about that..), as well as both my rifles, my handgun and all my ammo. (Ideally I'd be within a group of people I know and trust, that's how I'd disperse the weight of the guns and such.)

that was the fact of survival that the people of my book had to "Make it" trough the disaster... they runned from a high populated area and took a ... tactically apt mall and turned it into a nearly self suficient fortress it required a LOT of teamwork it is about a group of friends of like 17 youth people and the strong members of their families... who less or more knew each other... that was a very lucky fact and a determinant one alone you can't survive unless you are very very isolated.. like the kings of the hills of WWZ

What my plan entails is getting my family/college dorm mates and head to the nearest class 3 Weapons store (Which I have a googlemaps to with alternate route in my GTFO bag) and get some firepower. Then, hightale it up north into the Adirondack Mountains. Get a boat, colonize one of the islands in the larger lakes.
Also, we where throwing around ideas for using chainmail for anti-bite tactics. I still believe its to heavy to be effective.
Power does not corrupt. Fear corrupts... perhaps the fear of a loss of power.

you sound like you know a little bit of weapons and that would ensure it what would be your last post on disco? the last time you login while checking the disaster's videos on youtube and your local president is talking about they having the "control" of the situation on the tv?

The plot of most zombies is that 99% of the whole damn world is somehow infected all at once, making 'stocking up at the drugstore' and 'gridlock trying to get out of town' a non-issue. If you take a more logical approach, like the virus outbreak originating in one city, it would seem likely that the military would be able to get on top of the situation before it grew to nation- or worldwide-apocalyptic proportions.
Your theory of worldwide extinction of all non-human life is also implausible given that now not only is most wildlife faster, stronger, and more perceptive than the typical human, but they would now be smarter than the typical human. So I doubt very much that all the deer, bears, wolves, birds, fish, etc of the world would be consumed before the zombies all keeled over from malnutrition.
that's true but we know how all the countryes would be infected
rumours of cures
corruption for taking infected out of frontiers
religious fanatics
ignorance
and so on seriously the ZAPOC hasnt been because no one hasn't tried it we just need a mutated rabies that makes the subject more agressive and doesn't kill it... and tadaaa we got a "i am legend" like ZAPOC
