OK currently we have ten players. It could get pretty confusing with everyone posting like crazy. So, in your first action post, give the following information:
Where do you want to start (east side, west side, near the park, or near the landfill)
What you want to do, where you want to go.
What your goal is (looting, finding other survivors, just moving, hunting zombies)
How you're going to approach your goal (stealthy/no risks, as quickly as possible while being quiet, or full on LETS DO THIS)
At the end of the day, once everyone has posted their actions (that is, by midnight of that day), I'll put up a single results post under spoilers. Both for sparing everyone the Giant Wall of Text but also so you can avoid learning what everyone else was doing if roleplaying strikes your fancy.
One turn represents a few hours. This way we kind of keep everyone together temporally.
I'll give you a typical scene when you look out your window at midnight:
"The snow is falling steadily. You can't see farther than a block or two. Streetlights glow in the distance, and you see people shuffling around stiffly. They leave long tracks in the snow, but new snow falls in quickly. They seem scattered, and they walk with their heads down, arms at their sides. You make a quick count - there are at least three, probably ten or so in view if you're looking from an intersection."
"Across the street you see a snow-covered sedan. Inside, someone is moving around and pounding on the windows. He's been doing that for the past two days."
"The sky is a dark grey, seen through falling white snow and the amber glow of the streetlights. The electricity flickers again, for a few moments, and you hear your fridge come back on with a quiet hum."
"You've collected all your supplies in your living room in case you need to leave quickly. You heard the news a few minutes ago - a rescue! Can you recall exactly what street the Garrison was on? You don't live in that part of town, but they said it was downtown. Why didn't they just say what street it was on? And why don't they just drive a bunch of tanks through town and pick people up?!"
"You hear moaning outside. You quietly back away from the window, even though you're on a second floor. Are you going to leave now, or wait for the morning? You do have four days ..."
