same damn thing I said last night... I'd be sleeping in trees and shyt...
it's been like a year plus right?? come on now... the black dude from the first ep built a 5 block fortress in this time... the govnaaaah built a city fortress in the same amount of time
you telling me 5-10 people couldn't board up a house by now?? break into a mall?? high right apt building with that would require walkers to take 30 flights of stairs, after getting pass the fortified doors?? nothing.. a motherfukking tree house... a boat house to dock on and only leave when you want to hunt....
SOMETHING besides sleeping in the darkest and deepest of woods with FULL LIT FIRE keeping you warm (and visually standing out) every night
The fire really bugs me. They were even doing that in season 1, just on the outskirts of Atlanta.
I would do everything that I could to be as dark, quiet, and unnoticeable as possible.
Why in this world would you essentially light a beacon in the middle of darkness? If you're in a field, they're spotting you for miles. If you're in the woods, they're going to go straight for you. And that's just the zombies.
After dealing with multiple dirt bags up to this point, you'd think that everyone would be weary of humans as well. What if an organized group of ten people sees your fire, flanks you on all sides, and takes you?
Fires, overrated.
Also, I agree, I would have to have some sort of barrier between me and the wilderness. Have you ever camped out, or just hung out in the woods before? There's all sorts of cracks and pops in the woods already without having to worry about old DeadSusan about to feast on you.
I guess that they were taking breaks on watch for the night, and the fire is something to keep them awake, but I think that's the riskiest move to pull.
