How to unlock the Still Creek Savior achievement in DEAD RISING 2: CASE ZERO - Definitive Guide
1. Dick (Pawnbroker) you literally can't miss this guy. On the van immediately outside the safe house.
2 & 3. Gemini & Fausto. Located in the diner, the building just above the petrol station on the map. The guy will ask you for 2 drinks, just pick them up off the bar or floor and give them him. You will need to talk to them both to get them to follow.
4, 5 & 6. Sharon, Tia and Nikki. 2 of them are found in the bowling alley (north of pawn shop.) They will ask you to find Sharon who is in the quarantine area (North, where you found the first zombrex jab.) You will need to give her some zombrex to persuade her to come with you which you will need to buy from the shop for $25k. If you need cash, just smash all the fruit machines in the casino. When you've given her this, you will have to carry her back to the bowling alley and her mates will follow.
7 & 8: Jason and Archie. The 2 guys are located in the car park of the hardware store (North west-ish on the map) You need to meet these as part of the storyline anyway because one of them has the bike handlebars. They will follow you when you trade a sword for the handlebars. -To get the sword you need to open the 'Fish 'n' hunt' shop by climbing the rooftop via the hotel window and following it round.
9 & 10. Bob and his daughter Darcie. By now you would've already have spoken to Bob on the rooftop (opposite pawn shop.) These were the last 2 I got, and I rescued them after giving Katey her zombrex (7pm) so you do have time before the military arrive. Go speak to Bob and he will send you down to Fish 'n' hunt. Go in there, talk to the girl, she will send you back to Bob, after doing this a few times, they will follow.
----
Edit: Further info for survivors 9 & 10. You must beat Jedd reasonably quickly to get back to Bob in time.
If you are having difficulties with this, it may be worth saving in the safehouse at about half 6, then run to Bob and be next to him before the 7pm cutscene. Speak to him immediately after the scene and it should trigger the last survivors. You can still make quick dash back to the safehouse with very little time to spare to give Katey her Zombex but the achievement actually unlocks the moment you have Bob and his daughter through the door. So if you've already defeated Jed and completed the game you don’t have to do it again.

Achievement unlocked.This is the order I did them in, their locations, and instructions. Hope this helps :)

(2 survivors.)
2. (1PM to 4PM) The Bowling Alley. Enter the bowling alley. Talk to the girls, head to the Quarantine Zone. Standing look at the tents, if straight ahead is 12 o'clock, Sharon is in the tent at about 2 o'clock. Give the zombrex you have to Sharon or purchase another from the Pawn Shop ($25,000 - beat up the casino machines for a while). Carry Sharon back to the bowling alley. Take all the girls back to the junkyard.
(5 survivors.)
3. (3PM to 8PM) Behind the Department Store. Take a broadsword from the hunting store, trade for the handle bars, the two guys will then follow you back to the junkyard.

Achievement!
Gemini and Faustino is available about 10AM.
Tia, Nikki and Sharon is at 1PM
Jason and Archie by 3PM*
And of course, Bob and Darcie at 7PM
Hope this helps, and that no one else will have to panic like I did :-)
*Edit: xMAX UKx has corrected me on Jason and Archie, appearing at 3PM instead of 4PM. Thanks :-)
Thanks. Edited my post :-)
Afterwards you should save Gemini and Fasutino from the bar.
Everyone says that Bob triggers all survivors but in my case that was not true. Gemini and Faustino were gone after I first talked to Bob. I tried again and saved Dick from the Van and then I went directly to the Bar - Gemini and Faustino were there and I saved them.
Afterwards I talked to Bob the first time and then I saved all other survivors.
There are a total of 10 survivors you must save. Two of the notebook entries do not count towards the achievement, and are described in those specific entries. A good portion of the survivors can only be found at certain times. The information on their whereabouts (aka scoops) come from Bob, who yells at you once you first exit the pawnshop. He continues you give you scoop information on the various survivors needing help as you progress. If a survivor isn't where they are supposed to be at their scheduled times, go through the door to the safehouse to have the game reload the information. They should be there afterwards. Once you know about the survivors, you have a certain amount of time to rescue them. They must be escorted back to the safehouse after you meet their special conditions. They have a health bar, but you really don't have to defend them much. When you get to the safehouse door, enter it and that counts as you saving the survivors. Follow the schedule below:

Where: Scrapyard
Special Conditions: You must kill him. He is not a survivor that counts towards the achievement.
1. Dick - a guy standing on a white van (don't miss him, he'll be in the story)
2. Gemini & Fausto - In the bar, near the souvenir shop (swords, etc.). There won't be any problems with Gemini , but you'll have to give Fausto a drink twice (it's right on the bar).
3. Sharon, Tia and Nikki - Go to Bob standing on the roof and he will give you a quest to save 3 girls. First, you will come to the bowling club and there will be not 3, but only 2 girls, one of whom will ask you to save her friend, who is in a tent city. You will have to run after her. The girl will be wounded and you need to sacrifice one zombex to her, then pick her up (button ) and take her to the bowling club to the other two girls. Now that everyone is gathered, we take the wounded girl in our arms and call her for the both of us (button ) the other two and run to the shelter.
4. Jason and Archie - Now go to the crash site again to Bob. He will give you a second quest. You need to help two bikers. When you get to them, one biker will tell you that he needs a sword and then he will give you a motorcycle part. Run to the house where Bob is standing on the roof. Climb up to him and turn left, opposite there will be a building with an open hatch on the roof. Run to the stairs (this is the stairs that you went along in the story to find the key to the barn and take the part) and jump to another building (there is also a builder's helmet there) - now along the parapets and onto the roof through the hatch. Grab the sword and go to the bikers. Now the bikers are happy and agree to go with you to the shelter.
5. Bob and Darcie - These survivors can only be saved between 7:00 and 8:00 (This is when the cutscene with the clock in the video starts). Time it right and be on Bob's roof half an hour before seven o'clock. As soon as the cutscene is over, immediately take the quest from Bob and run to the souvenir shop (this is where you got the biker sword). There will be a girl there (Bob's daughter). She will be scared and you will have to run back to the roof to Bob and bring him to her. After a heart-to-heart talk, they will both agree to follow you to the shelter. Be careful - only 1 hour of in-game time is allotted for this quest, so do everything quickly.
Good luck!
