Has this been shared here yet? I searched, but, well, you know how that is. [link](http://www.newsandentertainment.com/zFzombiequiz.html) I got a Z+ I think that means I’d run away, rather than help you, I’m afraid. Oh, well. ---

I got an “A”. It said I would probably survive. I don’t know that that says giood things about me, though. 🆒 ---

I got a Z+ I’ll survive, but you probably won’t survive with me 🙂 ---

Z+, apparently I need to forget you guys and your wounds and just look after myself. ---

Z+. My friends and I were planning our strategy for what to do when the zombies come, the other day. We’re prepared. ---

I got an A… mostly, I think, due to my emotional numbness. Gee, thanks. ---

Z+ [Teary Voice] I’d like to thank my brother **T. Slothrop** , who gave me my Kukri, kept at the top of the stairs for Zombie attacks. I’d also like to thank the makers of the many many many training films I’ve watched over the years. And I must give a special thank you to you, the members of the SDMB for your efforts in raising Zombie awareness over the years. [/Teary Voice] ---

Z+ baby. My physical endurance brought my score down, but I’m crafty and callous about fellow survivors. Spoiler in case people haven’t taken it yet: I’m also a planner, which is apparently good. I got an F on the emotional score, though: “Your motto is ‘Numbness is the path to survival.’” Ok, so I’ll probably be suicidal with guilt after the zombie war, but by god, I’ll survive it. ---

I got two Bs, a C and an F with a Total of Z+ Question 41 is tricky, it depends on what movie the questioner watched. ---

I got a “C” total. Holy Og, this means I need to take up my friend Derek on his shooting lessons… ---

[QUOTE=beanpod] Ok, so I’ll probably be suicidal with guilt after the zombie war, but by god, I’ll survive it. [/QUOTE] Another Z+ here, and I got the F in the emotional portion too, but I’d rather be alive and regretful than feeling good about my karma in the belly of a carnitrope. ---

Z+ How am I supposed to know if zombies can bring corpses back to life, or whether zombies are fast or slow? Depends on the movie or book. ---

Z+ overall. A for Physical, B for Mental, D for experience and F for Emotional. ---

I got an A even though I’m so not fit at all and would be zombie bait. 😃 ---

I got an A, but I am not strong, and emotionally numb, and I can’t run fast. Maybe I can play dead. Or maybe I am already a zombie. ---

I’m not sure I understand. I got a C for most of the categories. I got an F in emotional. And it added up to a Z+. Hmmmmm. ---

This quiz (I found it off of FARK) got me in a zombie mood. The discussion thread there recommended [World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War](http://www.amazon.com/World-War-Z-History-Zombie/dp/0307346617/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1217973131&sr=8-1). I picked it up today and like most good books ended up reading the whole thing in one sitting. Highly recommended! ---

[QUOTE=Cluricaun] \ Wanna rephrase that? Not the thing to say in a room full of Z+ types 😃 [/QUOTE] I have a feeling it’s much too late for that. At least I am locked in a mall, armed with a machete. [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/zombie-survival-quiz/458897.md?page=2)
