Some tips on survival

[TBDWFE1]

Hello all,
The purpose of this thread is to give players advice on how to get out alive in more rounds.
Tip no.1
If you want to hide in a hole underground, don't just dig a couple of blocks down and stay there. If the map won't allow you to go any further, don't risk staying there. If you are only a couple of blocks down, zombies will easily see your name through the floor, and you will be easily killed, so make sure you dig down quite a bit. (Also remember to make sure your hole is at least 2x2x2, or you may be kicked)
Tip no.2
Don't reveal your position. If you want to tell a fellow surviver where you are, remember to use human chat (@@h) so only humans can see the text. That way you won't easily get found simply because you told them.
Tip no.3
If you are being chased and the zombie is quite close, don't go up a watervater. If you do, the zombie will just jump up and bite your feet off. Try to loose them using your head, (not literally) for example, cut corners to get further away, use your dodging skills, and if you are a good jumper, try to use a hard jump course to get rid of them.
Tip no.4
If the zombies are doing well, and there are quite a few of them, if you are camping somewhere in the open, try not to chat to much. A few times i have been killed whilst typing. Keep up your guard, and make sure you look behind you!
Tip no.5
Don't go to obvious places. If you are in a map with a main section, or a busy area, try to avoid it. The zombies will go for the place with the most humans, so try to get out of the way a bit.
Tip no.6
When you first spawn, don't stay in that spot. If you want to stay in the spawn, make sure it is big enough so you can hide in the back corner. Zombies don't normally turn around in spawn, however it is a big risk. If you stay in the spawning spot, the next zombie that will spawn will get a nice welcoming snack. And no, it isn't a burger. (This tip is quite obvious, but just in case)
Tip no.7
Don't day dream. Keep active and alert, just in case a zombie comes for dinner. Be prepared, and expect an attack. If you are in a little den or hole, try to make an escape route. Not too obvious that zombies can get to you through it, but a seret one. For example, if you are in a hole underground, you could make some stairs leading to the surface. Just make sure you cover up the top.
I hope these tips help, if you want to post anymore, feel free. Have fun, obey the /rules, and good luck! Thanks for reading :)

Nice Guide, although I find if the map is really deep, and you hide about 3 blocks above adminium, they usually won't find you

By the way all, i meant secret not seret in tip no.7

excellent guide, and I love that you included the watervater part. I've seen that happen way to many times.

Btw, For tip.. Uhm.. No.3, It says not to jump into water vaters, Yet you can if they are a certain distance away.. Also, Don't run into a Water vater and do NOT jump into it when your too close, If you jump just before you go in, You will go up higher and faster at the start so you have a higher chance of not being caught when being chased.. But it's 100% risk and most of the time you WILL die.

Also, If you're a good hider than you'll know where to hide.. For example, Hide UNDER the spawn, Most of the time zombies don't check there.. Nor do they check inside the spawn.. If you are being chased by a zombie, Do a very fast turn to the opposite direction if they are coming in from the side because that means they are trying to flank you (Walk in front of you) and if you turn round it will ruin their attempt at doing it.. And in maps like nobuild, DO NOT run along the top as it's easy to not see a zombie running towards you if a zombie is coming at you..

Same goes for Nobuild128, Don't run in a group, Go by yourself and I can garauntee you will survive longer and zombies usually go for groups as it is "Easier" to catch more people.
