I’m going to use my action to spread them around so we don’t starve.” He had also been given a sharpened stick, which he planned to use in the way anyone used a sharpened stick. “It’s interesting we now know who the zombie is,” Ian said. “But, in order for the game to be balanced, there would have to be more to it. Maybe there is a sort of “elim-kill” but it’s a public conversion, made in order to keep us distracted so we don’t catch the real perps. “Or maybe each zombie has a certain ‘countdown’ of cycles before they’re revealed, or they have conditions that if met will turn them into zombies. “Either way,” Ian said. “I suggest trying to communicate with the zombie, maybe that can provide us with useful info. Wait,” Ian turned to look at the GM, shattering the fourth wall. “Can we still PM Zombies?” 1

I think I am here. he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 (edited) Ian was a bit of a fool for forgetting the original post as soon as he’d read it, but through some way or another, he’d realised that private communications between zombies and humans were just not possible. “Alright, well, I feel there is a lot of information to be gathered from the Zombie. As in, how does their role look like, how did thy become one, etc. and since currently it does not seem we will understand what they’re saying, I will use my actions to do so. My actions will be the following: “1. Spread berries and fruits among everyone here. “2. Try to learn how to communicate with the zombie “3. If #2 is successful, ask the zombie what it’s GM PM looks like and how it became a zombie. “It seems we have a lot of people finding food, water and shelter,” Ian said. “So I think using two of my actions to try and get info from the zombie will be a worthwhile investment. Especially if we want to understand that,” He gestured to the carving in the wood. WE CRAVE PEACE, NOT SUBJUGATION. Edited June 22, 2019 by I think I am here. 2
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Bill sniffed as he realized that there were no trees around to climb. "Well," he began, "seems like... Tanky Fella got zombified because he didn't climb a tree. Which I did. By the way, I saw the zombie get him, but I don't know who it was." "Also, I made my own sharpened sticks too." ------ I'll escort the group going to the cows. Can I get a count of everyone planning to do that (not you, Lum)?
Coop772 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 "Not again" I start to lead Tanky away from the group, keeping my new sharpened stick in hand "While I'm gone you need to discuss what the message on the bark means"

I’m going there to get some cow brains to feed Lum. 1 hour ago, Butt Ad Venture said: I agree with you Snip and feel bad for Lum, there's just one problem. Zombies are not enough of mind to empathize with humans, rationalize their decisions, or ignore their impulses. I would love to keep him but there is no feasible method of doing it. False. The zombie mentioned in the beginning is clearly rational. He asks to be able to eat Lums brain, and when Lum doesn’t respond he takes it as an acceptance of his proposition. He clearly understands emotion, and therefore is able to emphasize, and I think it’s safe to assume Lum does as well. 2
+Ed Venture Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 You can feel better about yourself Itiah, I forgot the OG post too. Well Snip! In that case I'll help you with your brain gathering mission. "Here Zambie, Here Boi!" He walks backwards motioning with his hands for Lum to follow. "You want brains, don't cha? Well follow us and we'll give you some yummy yummy cow brains!"
Coop772 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I glare at Butt "I've got this, go get the brains and come back. Or better yet, Figure Out What The Message Means!"
Lumgol she/her Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Tanky ZomBoi shuffled towards... the nameless combat medic? and tried to push his stick out of his way. He was still working on his coordination, so instead of grabbing Nameless Combat Medic's head in pursuit of brrraaaaaaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnsssssssssssssssssssssss, Tanky ZomBoi grabbed ahold of the combat medic's arm and started voraciously chewing on it. nomNomnoMnOmNoMnOmNOMnomBRAINSSSSSSSSSSnoMnOmNoMnOmn0mn0mNOM 1

Right now my actions are to go kill a cow and use its brains to feed Lum. If anyone would like to take advantage of the already dead cow for food, go ahead.
I think I am here. he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Ian approved of the mission to gather cow brains for the zombie. He knew that success lied with not immediately assuming danger from the zombies. If they could understand, understand what the message meant, understand what the zombie was going through, together, they could catch the cause of this.
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 If you take the meat, make sure you cook it too.
Coop772 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Steven jabs at the zombie "Darn it! Another wound to treat." He looks at HH "No, I'm going to keep this one occupied. The group going for cow brains needs to kill, skin (for leather), and get the brains and meat from the cows." To the group at large "Does anyone have any medical equipment or experience?"
+Ed Venture Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I got the cow stuff. Can someone take the action to find the Zombie cure buried in the ground. That would be helpful. And can someone cook the cow?
Coop772 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 "Take someone with you, we don't know how many zeds there are. Plus Getting the leather, meat, and brains, not to mention killing it, may take more time (actions) than you think"
StrikerEZ he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I got some sticks, I was thinking I could use those to make a fire, and then I could use my second action to cook the cow meat.
Straw he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 7 hours ago, Devotary of Spontaneity said: I'm surprised the river had enough fish to feed us all. Potential food sources for this round appear to be cows, milk, and honey. Perhaps we could take the cows with us. Exactly one Zombification today, and it targeted someone who planned to stand watch. @Straw, anyone else, did you happen to see where the Zombie that bit Lum came from? This almost seems like an elim kill. Since I believe Lum had the same item Rath claimed that makes the holder not need to eat, I doubt her Zombification was due to hunger. Perhaps this item will prevent her from trying to eat us. I'm assuming from Fifth's post and my current item status that everyone received a sharpened stick. Not the most effective weapon, but it should keep hostiles at a distance. I just saw the zombie bite Lum, but I didn't get any more information.
Hemalurgic Headshot he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Regarding the cow, I will kill and skin it. Others will have to carve and cook the meat.
Ookla-son-son-Ventyl Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 I can also send in an action to kill the cow. —————————— Sean McSean was not okay with the brute becoming a zombie. He was also not okay with making peace or keeping it as a pet. Though, he was okay with getting meat from the cows.
+Ark1002 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Murder Hobo was hungry. His mouth drooled at the mention of a cow. "Food..." 1
+Ed Venture Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 So our cow based actions are going to be: Kill cow- Snip, Ventyl, Headshot Skin cow- Headshot gather brains from cow- Snip, Butt get meat from cow- Butt give brains to zombie- Snip give meat to cookers- Butt cook meat- Striker Everyone can only do three actions so we need to divide and conquer. Who wants to do what?
Rathmaskal he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 So, I used the action Watch for Hostiles last night...and apparently all that did for me was to see Lum attacked. I'm actually mildly worried that we'll end up with someone else getting bitten by lynching Lum if we don't have enough people involved. I'm sure Alv has all kinds of weird rules ready for this. I'm also curious what Lum did that may have resulted in getting attacked, or if that was just RNG?
Sart he/him Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Yeah, we'll need all the help we can get to lynch Lumgol. We don't want any more casualties.
+Ark1002 Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 Murder Hobo cackled. "Bye bye zombie Tanky Boi." 1
