The game sounds great, I'm psyched we have some hands-on experience (Crystal -- hilarious), and yeah, what is it with the zombiesphere? It's huge!<br /><br />Is it that it's had less cooking time than vamps, werewolves etc? A more voracious expansion?Octopunkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14948127593611773731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-27004924371779054252012-11-08T12:33:32.395-08:002012-11-08T12:33:32.395-08:00I was probably the most unsympathetic teacher when...I was probably the most unsympathetic teacher when my high school students decided to play Humans vs. Zombies. You forgot to study for the chapter test because you were up all night making weapons? Boo-fuckin'-hoo. You want to use my classroom as a safe zone? Sorry, buster. You want to cut through my classroom to evade the zombies? Go run around the long way, you could use the exercise.<br /><br />The other side to the story is when the staff proposed the idea of an all-teacher Humans vs. Zombies game, I began to devise weapons and plans of my own and put off entering grades.Crystal Mathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05365160047783237193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-81692516286638534742012-11-08T04:43:30.442-08:002012-11-08T04:43:30.442-08:00I continue to be stunned by the shear number of zo...I continue to be stunned by the shear number of zombie movies out there these days. I kind of burnt out on the genre, which is why I haven’t embraced The Walking Dead (yet). That second photo is great! The plot sounds like fun and I like that it takes place on a college campus. Fun find!JPXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213973405902714780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-89204680443209046252012-11-07T17:59:27.286-08:002012-11-07T17:59:27.286-08:00You really need to watch this one Landshark.You really need to watch this one Landshark.Catfreeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06215307648862899154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-42668550322318743122012-11-07T16:37:05.790-08:002012-11-07T16:37:05.790-08:00The zombiesphere is totally overwhelming and that&...The zombiesphere is totally overwhelming and that's both a bad and good thing.

You can be arrested.<br />Do not climb in trees on campus. You can get a fine.<br />If you hear a whistle blown during play or missions, this is a time out. Stop immediately, and do as officers and moderators instruct.<br />If you are confronted by police, comply immediately. Keep your hands visible, tell them you are playing the 'Zombie Game,' and under no circumstances reach for your blaster.<br />No biting<br />http://www.bgundead.com/rules/Landsharkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05693011705112065424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-80433242694655635032012-11-07T16:30:30.745-08:002012-11-07T16:30:30.745-08:00Yeah, it gets pretty large participation too, and ...Yeah, it gets pretty large participation too, and there's a website where every player is listed, with their zombie or human status updated as they get killed off and join the ranks of the undead. I think they stage "missions" at night too, just because. <br /><br />Nerf rifles are always an obvious sign of humans, (zombies have to take a time out when struck) but they're all also supposed to wear Survivor type buffs to identify them as players and their current status.Landsharkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05693011705112065424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-55811230593110708402012-11-07T16:23:07.619-08:002012-11-07T16:23:07.619-08:00That is awesome Landshark!That is awesome Landshark!Catfreeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06215307648862899154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-11328534808324715432012-11-07T16:02:21.777-08:002012-11-07T16:02:21.777-08:00Huh, I'll have to check with some of my studen...Huh, I'll have to check with some of my students if they've seen this one. We have a huge week long version of that game every semester--kind of funny to be walking to class when a kid comes screaming past you with an emptied out nerf gun being chased by 15 "zombies." Certain areas are safe zones, too, so you often see packs of students hanging out on the steps in front of the Education Building, getting ready to make a break for it.<br />Landsharkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05693011705112065424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17244873.post-81203534614371076462012-11-07T14:13:47.110-08:002012-11-07T14:13:47.110-08:00I think that sounds like a perfect task for you an...I think that sounds like a perfect task for you and/or JSP, Cat.
