I don't know, I saw that acronym earlier in the posts... I'll change it. :P ~Knotch

Can't I do both? :P So... What would this last thing include? Just come up with a position an propose it and see what the general consensus is. :P

Fool, you could be the court jester. :P I'm kidding, but anyone with experience/passion for law/government could work with me and help create a system for our island. ~Knotch

Hahaha.... I have one of those "Keep Austin Weird" shirts. :D

We need to begin to concrete our plans... I think it unanimous that we need to be on a large-ish island. And the post w/ all the maps is a good looking isle. And I assume we'll pretty much be our own country, besides the fact of holding back a horde of zombies, how about forming a government/laws? I'll quite happily work in a our "nation"'s supreme (only) court. :D ~Knotch

Yea, I manually time it when I rune mine. :P I wish there was a calculator, that knew when an ore was mined, even if you didn't mine it :D Gratz on 80 Smithing :) ~Knotch PS I'm beating Atom Smash (xxxgod) but don't say anything :-$

Losing Texas would be fail... I live in Houston, the immense amount of oil that comes through here and other goods, it would be an extreme loss. Although, my local Fox station had a survey, 38% said Texas has the right to secede. And 18% would actually follow through with it. I honestly think that Texas won't secede, and it was just a bit of verbal fail by the moronic governor. :P ~Knotch

At least a few acres square. And remember, as long as zombies can't detect humans, they won't go wandering in intentionally. They could see a building with evidence of humans, but as long as they have no idea there are humans in there, they won't go searching. Seeing as to how I have absolutely no idea how big an acre is (my googling skills fail), could you talk in terms of feet or meters? Diagram would be best, though. Would be good info to know how far this island is from the shore, on all sides. Zombies have absolutely no deductive reasoning whatsoever. Chances are, if they just so happen to be walking towards the river, they'll continue to do so until either something catches their fancy that directs them away from it or they're swept away by the current. They might also be able to detect humans by means other than just sight as well. Sound and smell, for instance. Remember, with the exception of touch, ALL of a zombie's senses are hyper-advanced. Zombies senses aren't hyper advanced (I may have the meaning totally wrong, however, ignore me if that's the case). They just use them all equally. Humans are sight based, but for example, a blind person will usually have more attuned hearing. It's not better, they're brains just handle it in a different way. As for islands, a lake is better than a river. Rivers aren't a few acres wide, usually. Here's an example. Island. It's an island in the middle of a lake. 20 minutes from my house, give or take. It has a dock, lots of trees, and some wildlife. It already has a house which is a summer house, so it's rarely occupied. It's a quarter mile (1400 feet ish, in this case) from point to point. It's a mile away from the closest bit of land, 2 and a half from the biggest farm in the state (lots of seeds, livestock, if we could get there in time. Or once we retake it, it's good land for farming). And 3 miles away from the biggest city in the state (which has only 40,000 people in the direct area. Another 150,000 in the suburbs, but it's all really spread out). Zombies running into a lake to get after us wouldn't be too successful, they couldn't come in hordes, since the currents in the lake would separate them. If we made a basic wall with some of the many trees on the island, (or the rock from some of the shores on the mainland, there's some good stuff, if we got the materials to use it.) And had one or two sentries posted, we'd be set. During the winter, all the zombies would freeze, and so would the lake. That means we could walk to land much easier, and wouldn't need to worry about having enough boats for all of us. We could scavenge the city, and it's right near, as I said, one of the bigger agricultural areas in the state. Also, 4 miles away, we have this building. I would bet that this could be easily fortified, and be a stronghold. There are pens for livestock inside the building already, as well as tons of agriculture supplies. Building EDIT: some info about that building: from the view in the satellite, there are four sides. I'll say right is the side with the thinnish wall, for reference. The right side is a stone wall about 2 feet thick, and 5-6 feet tall. There's a big open area where the road comes in, but we could build another bit of wall there. At the top and bottom of this side of the building are two big, medieval looking towers. They're the green circular things. They all have windows in them, going all the way round the sides, if I remember right. Good for snipers. The upper side of the building is just a wall, with one metal door. maybe two, I forget. Pretty safe. The left side has like four giant gates, all closeable, and really thick, but also, with bridges going to them over a huge ditch, that's like 20 feet deep. If we took down the bridges, we could use them to barricade something on the weakest side. Also, in the center of it all there's a really tall tower, again windows on almost ever side, with a TON of storage space on the stairs going up to it. Great for snipers again. On the bottom side is just a wall, but there's a big (25 feet long) gateway that goes into the courtyard. We could put the bridges from the left side here, they would block it off easily if we put them on their sides. Here's two other pictures. [hide=] The last one is looking at it from the right side, facing the left.[/hide] [/hide] Wait, so thats a local island? Thats perfect in a way, as its within driving distance for an emergency. However, one major flaw is that it has roads on it, houses and, because of that, other people. We could get shot by someone panicing and mistaking us for a zombie army, or having a feud over which group gets this land, this building, these supplys. If not populated at all, its perfect. If not, we could work out a deal with said people, or just merge our groups. I doubt it's a populated island, it seems like the sort of island that would be used for isolated testing. ~Knotch

Almost as hott as I am. I'm about 50K under Atom Smash :P I'm def. going to win :P

Yea, I know we've cloned a sheep. But isn't each new clone a further "woot" for the human race and it's scientific endeavors?

Alright everyone, here is your space to lol. [lol space] [/lol space] Okay, this is a true news story. More reliable news sources: BBC Try googling it, I can't find any American news sources. :P Opinions/Comments?

Liking a prude religious girl. She set me up with her friend that I only saw twice. The 2nd time I saw her I got to 2nd base. I'm now dating the prude that I've liked the entire time. Hurrah for hormones. :XD:

Mosquito Spray. We were talking about this in the locker room after soccer practice this morning. The one thing that we need was a [cabbage] load of bug spray/zappers. Think about it, a mosquito bites a Zombie, doesn't become infected, but carries Zombie blood. Then it bites one of us, and then lays eggs... and they spawn mosquito zombies. And, are we the last of the population? Or are we a "tribe" of the last remnants of the human race? ~Knotch

Ah, but when will you know when I hit 87? When I update blog to say Sheer Knotch ::90/92 Mining:: 90 Mining? Or when I say ::88/90 Mining::? No one will know. And by the way, I'm quite capable of "accidentally" dropping my stapler on my left arrow key and spin around after I get 87, til I get 88; and you won't see my Hi-scores level up :P

2 ;)

Die, nao pl0x. :) Jealous, I am. :) ~Knotch

14, and I told everyone I was lying on that blog :) 86 Miningbtw.

Eww... Go To Fun Orb please. :) Further reason to destroy you in our epic mining battle. :) ~Knotch oh its on. i will drop all my crafting supplies and head straight to granite. its on. do you really want that? i reckon i could level to 88 in about a week and a half Nah stay craftin', my PC is going in to get upgraded courtesy of my step-dad. How I love him so. He buys my mom a laptop so she'll get all her junk of this, and he's upping the ram to 4gb, and it runs XP, oh I can taste the speed. :) And a new graphics/sound card. *whacks* ~Knotch

Getting a full load in an hour is easy. I can get a full load in about 30 minutes in the Light Temple (full being the 22 spaces I have free when I'm mining there). So, I would say that if you use the Light Temple, about 12 hours. Fill me in on the "Light Temple Method". Sorry to sound noob-ish, but I left a few years ago and came back on Feb 1 of this year, still in the dark to most updates. ~Knotch

O Hai Der. :) I thought I'd eventually find you/your Tif account :P ~Knotch

I see you've mined quite of rune ores. I was wondering how long you think it would take to mine 500 of them, using timers and such. ~Knotch
