52%

I feel disappointed. I have the zombie survival guide and everything.

Oh, and they should have weighted the machete question a little more. My cane cutter never needs to reload...

I have about 61%... Of course I, along with my friends, have made PLANS for what to do in case of a zombie apocalypse.

I am quite proud to say that they were made after I brought the subject up...

And anyone with 80% or up must be being dishonest XD

How dare you suggest that, sir! How... Dare... You. U_U I got that score for being rational and worrying only about myself. Which is nothing but the truth, I assure you.

I just took it again and got 71%... must have been too tired last night to make sound zombie apocalypse decisions XD

I do like how a lot of the questions were classic "extremely stupid things survivors do in zombie movies to advance plot" situations.

There always has to be one stupid person who opens a door... or waves a gun around... or goes after a cat... or something idiotic like that that causes the zombies to charge in and start eating everyone.

And there is nothing wrong about worrying about others, there is safety in numbers... especially when you have people around who cant run faster than you do, heh...

But a group is harder to hide, and requires more food and supplies. It's a lot better to dodge the zombie's radar than use up valuable ammunition fending them off, or getting close to them so you can take them down with short-range weapons. And then you'd have to relocate to a safer spot, perhaps to start it all over again, if you survive the skirmish.

Safety in numbers doesn't work so well when you're vastly outnumbered. The only way it could work well is if you know the people well and can depend on their independent actions. It'd give an amount of freedom to survive that a group of people that know next to nothing about each other can manage when they try to suppress each others' actions and/or try to dictate what they think is the right thing to do for everyone else.

Of course, the few things I didn't do perfect on, I can learn to be better at, such as gun accuracy and stamina for running. So my chances of survival could be better if I wanted. ;p

Well yeah... if it was a group of strangers I think I would rather be on my own. Because like in the movies... one person's idiotic action can make everyone else zombie chow.

But like I said before... me and my friends have plans ^_^

This test isn't very accurate....

It seems to think I have only a 57% chance of surviving a Zombie Apocalypse. They obviously can't account for a person having ADD and decent senses.
