We're Alive Where You Live!!!

[Witch_Doctor]

We're having so much fun with the REP-ivia! thread that I'd thought we could add another game to keep us sane. While walking with my dog I read the sign on a small building near my neighborhood and lo and behold, guess what I found.

A WATER PUMPING STATION!


Here's the game, find a Place, Object or Person (Character) near you or your travels that represents something from We're Alive and post a picture of it on this thread challenging others to do the same.
Rules:
1) No stock images from the internet, so place a sign saying "We're Alive" in front of the image.
2) Put a deadline time limit on the challenge. Such as, "You have 48 hours" or "You have 3 days"
3) Rep each person who accepts your challenge before the deadline.
4) After a week has passed since a challenge has expired, anyone else can issue the same challenge so newbies can play too.

*** Please give me feed back on the rules of the game as I made them up on the fly.

I challenge you to find.....
The Water Pumping Station

You have 5 days. GO!

[turbo]

So we need to post where it is in the studio? Or find something of the same thing in our town? This is a fun concept!

Find something in your own town. Tower, arena, reserve base, someone who looks like Burt, a Hummvee, swat van, chick with a katana...

[Osiris]

I've got to say . . . this. Is. A. Good fucking. Idea.

[Litmaster]

Water pumping station in my town. Got it!

Good idea, Witch Doctor!

[scbubba]

Woo HOO! Sounds awesome. I'm in!

[turbo]

Time to make a fold up We're Alive picture for the wallet!

[Witch_Doctor]

Times a' tickin'. Pegs needs to water those plants and Kelly needs to finish her shower.waterbottle:)

[Cabbage Patch]

I have a water pumping station for you!

[Witch_Doctor]

Awesome CP!! Good Job. That's more in line with how I imagined the one in the story looked.

[Cabbage Patch]

Since I found the last challenge item it's only fair for me to put out the next one.

I challenge you to find a Gun Store. The more like Locked and Loaded the better. You have 7 days. Rep for everyone who participates, whether you have a gun store or not.

[Witch_Doctor]

OK, so let me get this straight. In today's political climate in the USA, all I have to do is stand outside of a gun store with a sign that says, We're Alive?:squint:


Only in America

Sounds like fun. I'm in.:D

[scbubba]

Was planning to get by the local gun shop this evening. May be a perfect opportunity to snap a We're Alive real world pic....

Well, unless it's dark... Hmmm...

Both WA Points voided out. Cabbage Patch didn't know what they were...

[pinkstarmary]

Got it, Gun Shop. Should have plenty of those here in Houston.

Not getting by there tonight. But going to the gun show on Sat morning. Could get a good pic snapped there...

You can buy a gun here in Massachusetts, provided you sign a Letter of Intent that it will only be used against conservative Christians and Republicans... :D

Well, since those are generally the Evil people who commit crimes most often, it must be for the greater good to use guns against them... :rolleyes:

You forgot "deranged veterans"! I'm pretty sure they were part of the DHS profile of potential domestic terrorists too.

[LiamKerrington]

Great Lolitude. Looks like I am out of this competition, because here in Germany we have only small shops providing stuff for professional hunters and marksman-sportsters. Those shops are nothing compared with "Locked & Loaded" ... ;)

[pinkstarmary]

Ok, I have pic, but my phone won't let me post it. It will up on Monday. Oh! The excitement of it all!!!

[scbubba]

What? No RPGs or suppressed pistols in those shops? Probably can't get a decent Claymore mine either I bet... :)

There's something about a girl saying "I have a pic" that makes my mind.... well, nevermind. Probably better you don't know. :hsugh:

[SoularSun]

awww man! I wish I would have seen this yesterday. I was driving around for 6 hours with my best friend who is a gun enthusiast!!

And I'm positive we drove by at least 6-7 gun shops, and very close to U of H (where the neighborhoods are just a bunch of non legit gun shops)

[LiamKerrington]

It depends on the legal status of your "shop", I assume ...
I never cared to ask, 'cause I think it has something to do with rockets. But what exactly is an RPG, if it is not a Role Playing Game?
edit: Ok, I just found out: RPG is a shouldered rocket launcher - the WA Wiki told me a second ago ...

[YetAnotherBloodyCheek]

Wait, Liam, you do not have an RPG?

Does... Does that really say "Huntin' Supplies"?

Also, when people click the attachment it enlarges the image, no need to worry.

[pinkstarmary]

Yup, they have hunting supplies. I got my first gun there. But didn't get to keep it. My ex decided it was his, so I took it away and donated it to the police that arrested him...:D

So what's next?

Your turn to pick an example of something from the WA universe in your neighborhood and challenge the rest of us to find it.

[pinkstarmary]

Ok, let me go searching... Oh, the fun of it all!!

[Osiris]

Drives me nuts that I don't have time to devote to this thread. I'm going to have to make some time.

[The One With the Markings]

Now I know where you all live...

[pinkstarmary]

Good afternoon, W.A., Your mission, should you choose to accept it, involves another supply run. You may select any two team members. May I suggest Riley and Datu. She needs more arrows for her bow. You have 72 hours to find a sporting goods store. As always, should any member of your team be caught or killed, the disposal of them is left in your hands. Good luck. This message will self-destruct in five seconds.

Plenty of archery supplies and camping equipment. Very little ammunition. Might need to find some folks that have the ammo stock piled next....

We have a Weiner....oh wait, I mean winner :)

[scbubba]

We have a Weiner....oh wait, I mean winner :)

Or both.... :)

I already had planned to go by the sporting goods store yesterday in my weekly quest to find a store with some ammo on the shelves. Alas, this well was dry... again....

Let me think up the next one. I got a couple of ideas. Will try to post the net challenge this evening (East Coast US time).

[scbubba]

Alright everyone. We've got a good supply of water, some guns and ammo, and a lot of other survival supplies. That's good. But the situation is changing. We've found out about a group of people who were imprisoned at the federal penitentiary before all hell broke loose. The story is that they have taken over the local mall. We need someone to do some recon and get us some intel on this gang.

You have 72 hours to find the local mall. Get some good pics. We need to know as much as we possibly can.

Go!

[LiamKerrington]

You, I did some reconnaissance. I went directly to the mall in my city - the so-called City Carreé ... And what am I supposed to report ... ?

I was not able to get into the place and take pictures there. The Master-Maller ruled out that taking pictures from the inside was forbidden to prevent Little Ones and Smart Ones from learning too much. But I was able to get 5 pictures from the outside by walking around the Mall clockwise ...

Great work, Liam! Your new call sign will be RoadRunner for the speed with which you carried out the recon mission! :)

Now, it's up to you to carry the missions forward. We await the next objective.

Just coincidence - lucky me! I had to do some shopping today anyway, so things fell into place ... :D

Ok, this is the challenge for the community:

One major trouble with the zeeh-pocalypse is medical care. You need bandages and stuff to treat wounds and maybe even broken limbs; you need plenty of various medication for whatever reason. And where would you find 'enough stuff'? Right so!
DundunDUNNNNNNNN!

Find a general hospital! You have time until including 23rd Feb 2013 from now on! You know them rules mentioned by Witch_Doctor: Any posting withing this time of span will receive the rep; the first one offering a location will be the next one to setup a new challenge.
If you happen to offer a hopsital with its own helicopter, you'll get an extra rep for this one!

All the best!

Here are the pics of the hospital. As you can see, it has multiple towers, trauma center, cancer research and is a training hospital. Should have any medical supplies we would ever need. They also have a heliport and helicopter...but cant get to the 'copter for a pic. You will also see a satellite image of the grounds, towers, parking and heliport.

Awesome. Now we know where we be (actually: are, but I like 'be' here ...) able to find the ressources we need. Awesome. The second rep for the heli-extra you receive by the next best chance.

To all others: The 23rd has not passed yet; thus you still can earn rep if you add more hospital locations. This I state according to the rules being set by Witch_Doctor, which I absolutely like! This is just the picture-war-repivia ...

REZombie. The holy WA-olympic-flame-of-challenge-awesomeness now is with you. You are obliged to ask for the next challenge ... What shall we find and prove with pictures?

Wake Forest University Hospital!!!

You get an extra Rep for finding the .... er.... Devil's Workshop
2456 Only way for me to top that would be to drive all the way back to Durham to get a picture of Duke Hospital.2461

[REZombie]

Yeah, i live about 15mins from WFBH, so it worked out good for me when i saw we were looking for a hospital, lol.



Ok, we have water, guns, found the mall and have the hospital... Now we need some transportation! We need to send some scouts out to find any type of useful vehicle such as military or police. Humvee, SWAT van, military transport trucks etc. Bonus rep if you find a tanker truck while scouting! We must have this done within 4 days! our standard cars and trucks wont last much longer, and the generators need fuel!

sorry, pic blocked heavy by trees, but its military transport vehicles and humvee's.

Ok, I was able to make a recon run today. I think the rainfall and cooler temps ar keeping the Zeeh activity down in this area.

Anyway, I did a drive by on a diesel fuel filling point. Here's a couple of pics I was able to get. I laid eyes on at least 5 tankers at 2 different pumps so this could be a very good place for us. There are 2 tankers in these pics. They are little bit hard to see.

Are you close to the USMC Amphib base? I haven't looked lately but that was there when I lived up that way. Or you could make the looooong trip up to the peninsula and check the AFB.... :)

I'll check the Nat'l Guard facility nearby. We gotta get some rugged transportation and diesel is better given the fuel station I found....

Stay alert and alive, cupcakes!

Finally! I've completed this mission. Not only did I find the heavy military vehicles but I also found the Army Reserve (National Guard) Base.2481248224832484


Would have completed this sooner but I was chased by a couple of HUGE Zs. A cool bloke named.... uh..... Reese's Pieces helped me hide from them in this Water Tower.

Here is a mission for y'all. Find a hiding place or a place to escape from the Zs that's been featured in We're Alive. Water Tower, the trunk of a hybrid, the roof of a flower shop, elementary school... 24862487


You have one week from February 27th.

Yep, Middle Fork Elementary (http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=9WL&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.43148975,d.eWU&biw=1288&bih=623&um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=middle+fork+elementary&fb=1&gl=us&hq=middle+fork+elementary&hnear=0x885300b62583be03:0x4ab713f1216cea05,Kerner sville,+NC&cid=0,0,2982592086679244722&sa=X&ei=1fczUdzQF47Y9ATjzIHoCA&ved=0CJMBEPwSMAA).. it does look like a church though...dunno why they built it like that.

If anyone is up for another supplies run?

We are in need of food, so the sooner you can head out the better!!! Be on the look out for any M.R.E.'s, canned peaches and/or a tuna sandwich! You have 3 days, be careful out there....I saw this really creepy zombie watching me from a roof top....he was different then the rest...never attacked, just watched...hard to see from that distance...but it looked like he was covered in tattoos.

[REZombie]

anyone else wanna post up a challenge?

[Witch_Doctor]

I can post another on Friday.

[LiamKerrington]

How about this:

Mobile power-generator? Like those used on bigger construction-sites. We need one ...

All the best!

[Witch_Doctor]

This Public Service Announcement is brought to you by D.W. Witch Doctor.

Folks, don't take pictures and drive. OK, bye.


OK, so I live several blocks from a Coast Guard Base and I used to see Chinook helicopters daily. Over the last few years, I've seen almost none. As I'm leaving downtown I see one flying. All of a sudden I turn into Victor and Saul, chasing a flying Chinook through the city. The chase ended, fortunately, when I notice that my most easily handy camera didn't have a memory card. I decided that it wouldn't be worth driving off a bridge because I was driving over the bridge and while looking for my other camera.

Moral of the story: Don't take chances taking pictures.

I can see the headlines now:


Local Witch Doctor Rescued from Elizabeth River Near Naval Shipyard
Demands SAR crew dress like zombie victims for photo-op for an online audio drama.


Hmmm, free publicity? :rolleyes:

[LiamKerrington]

Hi there,


Mobile power-generator? Like those used on bigger construction-sites. We need one ...

Then the power-generator it shall be:

Find one up until March 11th!

As per the rules: Anyone finding one and posting a picture of it here gets a rep!

All the best!
Liam

[pinkstarmary]

Sorry guys, kind of went awol, hope y'all are finding every y'all need. I'm just hoping I don't get jumped out here. Here's a good one to listen to while y'all are trying to stay alive.

If there will be none, I call it a day for this game as well ...

Well, I'm pretty much out. Broke my ankle yesterday afternoon so that puts my mobility down in the "zombiefood" levels.

And, unfortunately, I don't have a great story for this one. It involved racing my 4 yo son to the car and then hitting the hidden hole in the lawn. Big pop in my ankle. Big man laid out on the lawn. Day ruined.

Oh man, that sucks! I broke my foot about 8 years ago and was on crutches for a few weeks. I remember thinking then I was a kid that having a cast and being on crutches was cool and fun. Yeah, maybe when you're seven. At 33 years old, they are definitely NOT cool or fun; just a real pain in the ass to move around.

So I hope you fare better than I did... and that you don't have a job that requires climbing long flights of stairs or lifting heavy objects!

[scbubba]

We'll keep you covered. Take the sniper-rifle, we'll take chainsaws and smgs ...

Put a good scope on that thing and I can shoot a smiley face into a zombie's head from a few hundred yards. Just keep 'em at a distance and I'll lay 'em out...

I hear ya. I was on crutches when I blew my knee out in a soccer game back when I was 22yo. 6 weeks on crutches was nothing then....

2 days on them at the age of 42 and I'm ready to order a wheelchair...

Fortunately, all I have to have to work is a recliner, my laptop, and some wifi. We got young guys at work to move the heavy stuff... :)

I would say that the game has more of a zombie status than a dead one. More of a Romero zombie. Seems like fun but it turned out to be much harder to do in practice. The other games are easier to do while one is at one's computer. Taking pictures take more steps. Especially if travel is involved.

[REZombie]

I enjoy the game a lot, just can't seem to find a big ass genny :p

[LiamKerrington]

Ok. Since the power is not offline yet, we have some more time. I give you another three days (March 14th) to find a power-gen ...

Hatchlings, this is Nest. Chickenhawk has located a large military helicopter. We've dispatched a team to get it back in flying order so we can use it for the move to Fort Irwin. It's a CH-3E Jolly Green Giant.

Datu is on the way to the helicopter with his tools. But he is short of some key maintenance supplies. We need all teams to drop their other activities and locate the following items for Datu:

1. Large roll of Duct Tape. Extra points if you can find something in a subdued or tactical color.

2. Wire clothes hangers.

3. Chewing gum, preferably "Big League Chew".

4. Ball Peen Hammer.

Post your discovery reports here!

Once Datu has his supplies it's just a matter of time before we have this bird in the air!

Please advise. Over.

[Cabbage Patch]

Nest, this is Nestling Gonzo: What is a "wire clothes hanger"?

Nestling Gonzo, a wire clothes hanger is one of the most versatile tools known to mankind. It is approximately ½ meter of 12 gauge wire, twisted into a triangular shape, with a hook at the apex so that it can be used to hang a garment on a hook or rack. The complete hanger can be used to fashion tools, including expedient TV or radio antennae, or a probe that can be used to unlock the doors on any 70's era Ford or Chevy. It can be fashioned into a wicked weapon, both for swatting and for stabbing. You can also use pieces of the wire to secure, reinforce or repair damaged mechanical parts. It is an excellent expedient electrical conductor, though you must take care to properly insulate the wire between the contacts.

Sadly, due to the introduction of plastics, the wire clothes hanger is an endangered species. Which makes the few (billion) that remain precious.



Nest. Wild Turkey.

I was sure I heard someone on this channel proclaiming "No wire hangers, EVER!"

Please advise. Over.

Wild Turkey, we attribute that quote to Carson Kressley, from the TV show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy". We suspect that he was talking about the mundane, clothes hanging function of the wire hanger. It is unlikely that he ever locked his keys in a Chevy Vega, and used a wire hanger to pop the lock, or repaired a helicopter by reinforcing a strut with scavanged hanger wire. Kressley was last seen fleeing from a crowd of biters along Sunset Boulevard.

Joan Crawford also said "No wire hangers, EVER!", but she seemed quite proficient at their expedient uses so we assume she was just kidding.

Roger Nest. Wire hangers for field expedient uses will be inbound to your position within 24 hours.

Also Nest, our team has had visual of a group of 4 biters in the Rodeo Dr area. They appear to be incredibly well dressed and, get this, strutting down the street. One was heard to growl "Oh no you didn't..." before pursuing us. Their pursuit ceased after roughly 5 steps. I swear I heard "Not in these shoes" as they broke off.

Wild Turkey out.

We're having so much fun with the REP-ivia! thread that I'd thought we could add another game to keep us sane. While walking with my dog I read the sign on a small building near my neighborhood and lo and behold, guess what I found.

A WATER PUMPING STATION!

Here's the game, find a Place, Object or Person (Character) near you or your travels that represents something from We're Alive and post a picture of it on this thread challenging others to do the same.
Rules:
1) No stock images from the internet, so place a sign saying "We're Alive" in front of the image.
2) Put a deadline time limit on the challenge. Such as, "You have 48 hours" or "You have 3 days"
3) Rep each person who accepts your challenge before the deadline.
4) After a week has passed since a challenge has expired, anyone else can issue the same challenge so newbies can play too.

*** Please give me feed back on the rules of the game as I made them up on the fly.

I challenge you to find.....

I know that it has been asked in the past. But, what would it take to get We're Alive to do Live shows across the U.S. Or even go International? Yes, I know money is a big factor. However, I see the likes of Nightvale going around doing live shows and I wonder what the difference is? I admit that I do not know the first thing about this issue. And I do understand that there are more sound effects in We're Alive shows.
It is just obvious to me that KC's work far exceeds the quality of Welcome to Nightvale, or other shows like it. I want nothing more than continued success, ....... And more content.... Lots more content. :D

For an analogy. Think of taking a band on tour, especially a band whose band members went their separate ways and are now going to do a greatest hits tour. The members are doing their solo thing or are with new bands, so just coordinating their schedules would be a gigantic hurdle and headache. Then there's the stage guys, sound and lighting tech crew, let alone the backstage production people that need to be transported from place to place and housed and fed. Locating and booking the right sized venues, as well as the cost of promoting the gigs. The CD and T-shirt sales are sometimes the difference of making money or not on a tour. The only people guaranteed to make money are the venues.

Yes an audio drama likely doesn't have to truck around drum kits and stacks of Marshall amps, but the planning, coordination and associated costs would not be much different from a band.

Good points.

Now there are times where it could work by sharing a lot of the inherent costs by joining another tour band or production. Like being an opening act for a band or being the headliner. In this case, audio dramas or podcasts on tour.
