DayZ

Found some youtube videos of what may be the greatest game ever...
I have not played it, as far as I know it does not run on Mac.

From the wiki:

Day Z is a zombie apocalypse mod for the military simulator Arma 2 and its standalone expansion pack, ArmA 2: Operation Arrowhead. It assigns the player to the role of human survivor and drops them into a bleak wilderness dotted with villages and small cities.

Throughout the game, the survivors must scavenge for resources such as weapons, ammunition and medical supplies. Unlike other zombie games, food and drink are also needed to satiate hunger and thirst.

Zombies in the game are mostly an annoyance. They will move to the sound of gunfire. The real danger is other players. You can run around murdering people, and become a Bandit. Or you can run around helping people, and become a Hero.

Here are some daring heroics  (NSFW Language)

There are also live streams of the game. As I type they are holding a contest  of two man teams called
Survivor Gamez

Later on I will likely add several you tube channels to my sidebar.

I've just got one question... Can you jump a shark with it?

This was made for Comic Con to promote "The Walking Dead" Comic Book. If they worked it into the TV show it would be a lot more entertaining.

My Zombie Song

Lawyers and Zombies

Joe Barrett host of Trigger Time Sunday nights on 55KRC posted a very interesting observation on Facebook. He warns against carrying Hornady's Zombie Max ammo because it could be used against you in a court of law.

I had a listener tell me he carried this ammo in his self defense guns, but heard someone say perhaps he shouldn't due to the "Disclaimer" from Hornady. Having read it, I have to say I wouldn't own it either. It doesn't matter if it really isn't any more effective than something else, THIS ONE comes with the instructions by the manufacturer that it should never be used against a human being, and I am guessing an attorney could make good use of that in a civil trial if nothing else. I hope Greg, David, Bill and/or some of the more experienced trainers will give their two cents on this topic.

Disclaimer: Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is NOT a toy (IT IS LIVE AMMUNITION), but is intended only to be used on…ZOMBIES, also known as the living dead, undead, etc. No human being, plant, animal, vegetable or mineral should ever be shot with Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition. Again, we repeat, Hornady® Zombie Max™ ammunition is for use on ZOMBIES ONLY, and that's not a nickname, phrase or cute way of referring to anybody, place or thing. When we say Zombies, we mean…ZOMBIES!

UPDATE: The disclaimer is not on the box. I looked at one today.

If you want something done right...

Do it your own damn self.

I got an idea.
Googled around to see if it had be done before.
Found it had been, but I wasn't really happy with what I found.
So I took my own stab at it.

Lets call this a first draft. I'd like to get some feed back.

I'm not sure if everything works and have some changes in mind.

Also I am publishing this on my blog to prove it is mine.  I you want to use it please ask (if you use it I want to know about it).


2nd draft.

3rd draft. To add in DayZ.

Taken by a... Kukri. (Coo-Cree)
If the violence... breaks the silence,
We'll be over… taken.

If they see… they'll eat me… and eat my… family.
The undead, hoards of Zed, they are fighting,
Guard the flanks contact front,
With Cold Steel and warm guns.

Jacketed lead… Shoot the head...

Hey, hey, hey.
Two in the head… Kills the Zed…
