Let's Survive Zafehouse: Diaries!

But I was totally planning to hit on all the zombies I couldn't kill. Oh well. Make him a carpenter, then, if that isn't too underpowered.

I just made him as a carpenter, and he's really good at breaching and amazing at barricading, but not too useful otherwise. Does that sound all right to you?

Alright... mods are awesome! So is Classic mode! I wasn't sure if I should have bolded that, but.... my tablet doesn't like bolding and my wifi is crappy right now, so I didn't want to mess around and lose the post before I posted it.

I am here!

Big town that's challenging, please.

... Well, somehow I ended up doing a custom thing after all.

(Sssssooooooo adorable....)
What is a ro-

I simply do not understand why-
(-Javvie, I be gushing, you be hushing. Leave it at that.)

I'm still here.
I'd prefer to do Road Kill but I don't mind too much either way, anyway I'll give you the character details soon.

I have been summoned!

I'm okay with either Road Kill or Classic, really. We're probably doomed either way! :>

It's too bad there is no option for Orientation: Cosmic Creepy.

(Personally I resized Javert down to the goddamn pixel, but I can get a bit particular about these things. I suppose you could just use his terrifying mug as an avatar until it starts, though?)

Hmm. I'll let you pick since you know the stats better than I do. I'd like him to be useful to the group.

It doesn't HAVE to be exactly 270x270, but it would make things muuuuch easier for me if you did that. :)

He will be very useful during breaching, which is practically half the game, so I don't think you need to worry about that. :>

In my extremely limited experience the carpenters didn't die first. They got clobbered last, but that may have been their rampant middle-class loathing and not their profession.

I like the Euro coin mod.

I put up a picture of the wonderful principal :D

Handsome.

This will be such a beautiful train wreck, you guys ;_;

And we'll be here to see it
To stand and breathe it on the day
Stoop and feel it
Stop and hear it
Zombiiiiieeeeesssss I saaaaaaay

Oh hey Snark. I just remembered that I can send only five survivors to build a new city, so I won't be able to make a Snark with uber leet stats for you. Sorry! I'll make the first scientist I get you though, don't worry.

Also, so far for the Rebuild 2 mini-LP votes:

The town name will be Montreilsurmer by default, since DK was the only person to submit a name. I can't use dashes, unfortunately. If anybody has any alternatives, speak up now or forever hold your peace.
The town size is equally divided between small, typical, and big. If nobody votes further I'll just go with whatever I feel like. :>
The difficulty level will be challenging.

Let me know if this works for you, Jacquelle, Davian Korran, Kaneda, Flonne, soundlyParanoid, Snark.

Also, just as a suggestion, would you like to make this a gimmick run where we don't recruit any additional survivors apart from our core team? This will make the zombie invasion incredibly hard to fend off - almost impossible, in fact - in which case you might want to lower the difficulty to "pretty easy".

If we go with a regular run, should I bring back survivors from previous runs? Or should I recruit from the spectators of this LP? Or both? Let me know what sounds more interesting to you. :3

*Yes, I am always here, provided I am awake*

Let's not make it impossible, but if we do recruit people, I think previous survivors should take priority. I know Snark really wanted to be in this, so maybe do recruiting and keep the difficulty?

Oh, Snark will be in it for sure. I was just wondering about the OTHER previous survivors. :D

EDIT: Would it be a good idea to summon them, you think?

Let's lower the difficulty by 1 and only use past survivors. And summon them but still use them if they don't respond?

I do wonder... might you mean Little Miss... actually, let me just get the libretto.

MARY:
Your school is a filthy rat hole full of nasty girls with dirty beds! And all anybody ever really does is scrub the floors! I hope you get run over by a train on your way home, and your ugly head rolls into a ditch and gets eaten by maggots! I hate you! I HATE you! I HATE YOU! And if I’m sent off with you, I’m going to bite your arm, and you’re going to die! Now get out here! Go away, GO AWAY!

Thanks again, Ozzo. Secret Garden never was the same again. (Incidently, the line immediately after that is "What you have there, Doctor, is a psychiatric problem.")

*ahem*

If people want to go, it should be open, I guess is what I am trying to say.

Mary...

I will be running a Rebuild 2 mini-LP alongside your regularly scheduled Zafehouse: Diaries updates. I'm having the survivors of the previous round be our opening team, but we will recruit other survivors along the way. Would you like to be those survivors? You can also indicate what class you want your character to be: Soldier, Scavenger, Scientist, Builder, or Leader.

Sure, make me a scientist. I will be USELESS

I might join into that one too if that's okay.
Need to look into the game first though.

EDIT:
You did mean other people in the thread could join along the way, yeah? If I misread it then oops.

I'm terrified not doing it blind. I had no effing idea what I was doing when taking votes in the Roadkill run, and, well...

But you'll be busy fighting zombies in another city at the same time! Maybe if you manage to get to the chopper in time, they'll bring you to the city that the others have reclaimed... :D

Ayumu can be a scavenger~

Where Mary has murdered everyone save a barking mad Javert who's trying to arrest a car with the license plate JV-24601.

Maybe the chopper does a L4D and crash lands in the second city.
I can get behind this.

Totally agree on this.

Does anybody else have any thoughts on the size of the city? We're going with Montreilsurmer, a city [of indeterminate size] that's kind of tough to reclaim.

I completely missed being summoned but hey I keep checking this anyways.

Sure, stick Vide in there. Or Knock Out. Or both. Vide would be a builder (closest to mechanic) and Knock Out a scientist.

I vote for a small city.

Why not big small?

We will end up with a shitton of scientists it seems. Are they useful enough to justify having so many of them instead of... you know... soldiers?

I love how everyone's okay with naming it for the town Valjean was mayor of. I feel like I'm accomplishing things.

DING DING DING DING

The tie has been broken, the vote is closed, Montreilsurmer has turned out to be a small city.

Never mind, it's currently tied between small and big. Personally, I think small works fine since this is just an LP-within-an-LP, so we don't need something that's on too big of a scale, haha.

I'll probably get the main LP update out first, since we need to give the other past survivors more time to respond anyway, so just hang tight for now. :3

I got a lot of scientists and it was SO HELPFUL because scientists can research ways to kill zombies more effectively. And also food.

Population in 2006: 2.498, according to Wikipedia.

Yes, it's a real place. Hugo kept everything but the names of his goddamn characters within the bounds of reality. It took me WEEKS to be able to spell Courfeyrac right,
