Well obvious, we'd form into a settler unit, move to a spot with plenty of grassland, hills and special resources, found our first city and build an empire to stand the test of time

In a typically British way, I'd sit around pretending to like everyone whilst trying to figure out the best moment to stab every last one of you in the back. I would then build myself a boat and set off in a randomly chosen direction, praying to a God I don't believe in that I don't end up back in Britain.

well, the problem arises when we realize there aren't that much females around.

we'd probably kill eachother in a quest for the few females that are, whom, when the survivors surway the battlefield will tell them that they would rather fall down dead then date anyone of them

Do we want all 17,000 Apolytoners? Do we include the lurkers? I think we should just take Off-Topic posters.

Personally, I think most of us would die of starvation and disease.

Obviously we'd have a communist society to start with. We'd have to democratically organize things if we hoped to survive.

Yes, but those of us who excercised our right to create a democraitc communist society would survive, while the rest of you starved to death doing your own thing. Though, being the charitable humanitarian types we are, we'd leave bits of food out for you to survive.

no I agree with Chegitz. It would start as a comune...we'd probably all do something and split up the food, shelter, etc. between us. Then after that it could either get better or worse depending on how we organized ourselves

It would end up communist, certainly. We'd be a big happy kibbutz!

Once again, I see it the other way around. Starting as a commune with a simple organization of who will work on what (food gathering, shelter building, hunting, etc.) and capitalism and factional differences would/could develop slowly or abruptly based on how we continued to organize ourselves.

It's not an ideological prediliction for communism that makes me say this. An organized group would be far more able to tackle the problems of creating shelter and gathering food than individuals would. Also, since few of us are inclined to take orders from others, almost certainly we would decide things democratically, together in a council. Distribution would be based on some combination of need plus effort.
