Currently ransacking the cop station & finding pistols, pistol clips, shotguns, shells, & a flak jacket. A crowd of zombies is gathering one block to the south. Maybe a dozen folks holed up w\ me, so things should be alright.

My zombie joined a hoarde invading a police station today. I had to log back on to make sure you weren't in the humans we're attacking.

I'm still sitting in Kinch Heights. Probably go a-zombie hunting tomorrow APs permitting. I still want more ammo.

I'm hanging out at the mall in Tollytown, scratching at the doors.

Made it into Bale Mall today. 127 survivors inside the square I'm in... wow.

Some zombies attacked my police station, but they are dead now.

Time to search the gun store!

Holy fuck... 6 searches, NOTHING found.

Bah.

You should read your own link about searches.

Also, the wiki has a link to a program that will show the rolls when you attack and search.

OK, splain it to me... cuz what I read said I should find things 33% of the time.

Right now I'm 0 for 10, which is 1.7% likely to happen.

Steady crowd of ten or so zombies outside the cop station. I could barely hit shit today & ran thru some shells & a couple clips. Managed to hit like three times. Gotta spend the rest of the fucking day ransacking the cop station & hoping the horde doesn't swell.

I read in there that searching an armory...or a gun store...doesn't seem to be any better than searching a police station. Although getting that 25% bonus on searches should help.

DL that die roller and see what's happening. Maybe you rolled 10 90s or something. I've heard of a 15 card charlie, so anything is possible.

Well, searching has been a lot better since that 16-turn no find anything streak.

Today I'm 6 for 18

I've got 8 shells ready and 25 pistol rounds... guess tomorrow's attacking day.

With so many people playing the game, an unlikely series of 16 fruitless searches that is only 1.7% likely to happen is likely to happen to at least a few people every day. :)

That makes me feel 0.0% better.

The building I'm in has been "very heavily barricaded." How the fuck do I leave?

2 loaded shotguns, 5 loaded pistols, & 4 clips. I'm John fuckin' Rambo. Also found out how to leave the damned barricaded cop station. Anyone close to Kinch Heights? I may head north for better hunting. Looks like my station got rushed o'er the weekend & we repulsed the bastards.

I could be wrong, but I think you have to break the barricades down enough to get around them - going in or out. At least, that's how I got out of a Police Station after someone overbarricaded it while I was logged out.

Edit: Ah, nevermind, I see you found a way out.

Apparently, you can leave via a window by clicking on an adjacent block. But then you can't get back in to whatever barricaded place you were leaving. Just as well, I guess. I need a change of venue.

Lots of zombies in the middle of the map.

There's still probably some sitting outside the cop station I'm in. I'll probably blast away at a few tomorrow, hole up somewhere relatively safe, & head to wherever the zombie tracker tells me to.

Tollyton is being over run. I had to retreat to Wray Heights, which also is swarming with zombies, after my police station was attacked and I was killed.

I'm getting ammo and I'll be headed back to Tollyton soon.
