Zombie Apocalypse OOC

[Wolfreign]

It is July 7th, 2015. The U.S. has been infected with a deadly plague that turns people into flesh devouring, mindless, incredibly hostile zombies. For lack of a unique name for the creatures, most people have started to call them Walkers, after the popular television show, The Walking Dead. Walkers populate most, if not all cities all over the United States. New York City, quite possibly the most populated city, has become a place where men, beast and undead compete for dominance. The City is now walled off by the government. Now, most of the Survivors are alone, while some have built paranoid tribes, not trusting outsiders. Survival is the number one priority, not much else is thought about.

Here's the CS rubric.

Is that ok?

[Wolfreign]

@John How is your character a 50 year old veteran of the Vietnam War? It's 2015 and the Vietnam War was in the 50s-70s.

[John Torque]

Yeah, so what? He could have entered as a grown man...

[Wolfreign]

I apologize, I just thought he would be older.

[chukklehed]

yes, and then it would be even more imposible. i failed arrhythmic and i can tell you you're counting the wrong way

- - - Updated - - -

at the very end of the war, you're character would be 10 years old. i'm pretty sure the conscription age was 18

[John Torque]

Wait...let me do the maths...you are right, but there are some people that entered the war being 18 years old...

[chukklehed]

although i'm more worried that a police officer gave a 20+ year old his gun. what was the situation?
"i'm bored."
"here kid, play with my gun, it's not loaded."
"thanks"
"keep it, i got three more."
that man would be fired on the spot, if not imprisoned.

yeah, but none of them passed for 18 when they were... *mumbled math* around 7 or 8
