 		Alive
Braaaaaaains...
I was poking around Memory Alpha, the Star Trek wiki, and noticed a news posting about a new zombie apolcaypse-themed TV series called "Alive" (which will involve some Trek cast and crew). There's no airdate listed, but the series is set in 2009. The posting itself links to Falcon Rock Command, a faux Department of Defense-style website with a video broadcast by survivors (and another on the way a few days from now). There's also a link to Fighting The Dead, which appears to be an Emergency Broadcast System-like site, but has minimal content right now.

I really enjoyed Max Brooks's World War Z, which shares a similar premise, so this interested me. Sorry if this is old news or doesn't belong here. Embarassed

 		will this compete with another upcoming zombie-themed television show, called Babylon Fields, i wonder? (This is only listed as a pilot, so it might not have been picked up for a season yet)

 		Wired has a story about this - a viral campaign in lieu of a pilot for a TV series. And apparently there will be more...

 		Sheesh, that site creeped me out a bit. I loved World War Z, though, so I might like this!

We found out who's been hacking our signals.

He calls himself "The Pastor." We don't know his real name, or his
location.

So we need your help to find him.

I've uploaded a new video to www.falconrockcommand.com. Take a look at
what
happened when I tried to transmit my last update about Dr. Cole's work
to
develop a vaccine, even a cure.

If you see the Pastor, first of all, avoid him! Then get on the
G.R.I.D.
and let us know where and when. Once you see the video, you'll know
why
it's so important that Dr. Cole makes contact with him.

And remember, don't believe him.

Science will save us.

It has to.

We'll talk again.

CJ

So he wants us to find the pastor? I'm guessing that the clues are in the the video found in www.sciencecannotsaveyou.com (what? is that zombies in the background singing?) it's in the audio.
But im not sure..

Any new info on this? Thanks

 		I'm definitely helping, count me in guys.

I'll be reading up and doing some research and getting in contact, because I'm really interested in this one.

I just got an email from CJ:

I'm very interested in helping fight the outbreak. Is there anything I can do for you? I'm trying to find out where The Pastor is.

I'm not sure when I'll be able to get back on the G.R.I.D., so this is going to be short and not so sweet.


If you're anywhere near Falcon Rock, STAY PUT!


It's not safe here. It's almost as if they know this is where people
are heading, and they're setting up ambushes.


According to Dr. Cole's research, they're not smart enough for that.
So Colonel Manwary thinks it's possible that someone is directing them.


That might fit in with what we've all seen in those bizarre sermons
from the Pastor. Is he controlling the ones that are with him? Or
is there some other reason they're not attacking?


Seems like the more we try to find out how this all got started, how
these things can even exist, all we find are more questions.


But we will find the answers we need to fight back and win.


That's a promise from all of us at Falcon Rock.


I'll contact you when the Colonel's cleared a safe passage.


We'll talk again.


CJ


:O

I'm assuming it's zombies, yes. I'm not totally into this one, since Silverladder is back up, but if any help is needed please don't hesitate to contact me. I'll do what I can. :3

Here's a thought:

If anyone can mess with the flash controls or the source code for a while, maybe we can get something.
