#296901 Ads?
Posted by badger on 30 March 2011 - 01:17 PM in Site Feedback
It isn't exactly something that adware can block. I am using Trend Micro and it has blocked everything anyone could ever encounter and it can't stop this oddity. I am also running Chrome.
#296891 Ads?
Posted by badger on 30 March 2011 - 11:06 AM in Site Feedback
If you listen to some of the ads, some are TV commercials (Neutrogena and Listerine ad), some are broken into two parts (Goodyear ad that I heard this morning), and one is from either a popup or banner ad (Clear Internet Services) as it tells you to click to learn more.

I may need you to do a mod for me. I have not the time nor the patience to do one myself at this time.

I figured it would be loud, so that won;t be an issue for me. I probably would only pull that thing out for Apoc.

#291459 Stampede Shield In Wars
Posted by badger on 24 December 2010 - 05:56 PM in General Nerf
The Manta Ray counts as a shield and shooting it is not a blaster hit as it is the main purpose of the blaster and the shielding surface is a solid component of the Manta Ray. The shield that comes with the Stampede is an attachment. It is an accessory that comes with the blaster that can be removed. As such, it should fall prey to the same rules as any other N-Strike attachment. If it is hit, it counts as a hit against you. If someone is using the Longshot and the sight is hit or they have the tactical light attached, hits on them count. The same goes for the shield. Now personally I agree with what VACC said and that will always be my personal stance. It came with the Stampede, so it only applies to the Stampede.
#290180 New "sonic Series"
Posted by badger on 05 December 2010 - 07:11 PM in General Nerf
I do have to say that I saw the Sonic Maverick at a TRU this past week and I played with the cocking mechanism. It actually seemed to have some more strength in the spring. The AR will eliminate that extra force, but it was quite apparent, at least with the one I was holding, that they may have stronger springs in them.
#288872 Talking To The Press.
Posted by badger on 25 November 2010 - 02:32 AM in News
Speaking only for myself (though I think the other members of the NHQ M&A team will have the same sentiment), but NHQ fully supports this decision and as a forum in the NIC will act as needed to preserve our hobby.
Just this year a few of us got invited to an event by Hasbro. This situation may have hurt our standing with Hasbro from here on out. Let us hope that we are still in their good graces after this clusterfuck.

Happy belated birthday Talio and VACC. I shall get drunk, pillage, burn and destroy in your honor this weekend (wife permitting).
Hope to get drunk with you both soon!

#282264 Hybrid Hopper, Combines Hopper With Brisc
Posted by badger on 05 August 2010 - 10:38 PM in Darts and Barrels
Just to clarify Chops, you mean to sand out the ledge that is on the inside of the 45 degree angled fitting? You say to sand the wye, but it is the angled fitting in the image.Using a dremel, sand out the bottom of your wye. You want to get rid of the ledge that would otherwise impede the dart.
I want to make sure I get this right. I was about to build three hoppers, but when I saw this, I bought all new supplies just for your choppers.
Question...any clue on how well this works with a nested brass barrel?

Does anyone need for me to bring extra meals (MREs yet again) or water/drinks? I will have the wagon again for this year. I will also be bringing the COD for additional hilarity.

#281870 Stampede Official Nerf Demo Coverage
Posted by badger on 02 August 2010 - 04:18 PM in General Nerf
BINGO!!! I just did a little more research (sometimes I need to thin of things in a different context to do a search), but the Nerf Ball was released to the public on September 9th, 1969.I believe that September 9th is the anniversary of when the original Nerf material was created, last year was it's 40th anniversary, and this year is the 40th of when it was released as a toy ball. I'm not 100% sure on this, but it's the best i can think of.

Every year, blasters have release dates in the 4th quarter of their fiscal year. They may have decided to make this one special for whatever reason.
#281445 Are The Clear Blasters Faulty?
Posted by badger on 28 July 2010 - 12:50 AM in General Nerf
You will probably not be able to return it. I personally would not take the return if your reason is it isn't shooting as far as a previous release. At most they may let you exchange it, but if you keep going back in the hopes of getting one that shoots as far as the colored ones, they may stop you for suspicious activity and refuse further exchanges or returns.
#281161 Nerf Stampede - Reviews & Internals Guide
Posted by badger on 24 July 2010 - 06:03 PM in General Nerf
With the LS, Recon, and all the others, you had to pull the priming handle back in order to be able to release the clip. Since the Stampede has no priming handle, they seemed to have designed it differently so that you are always able to release the clips, making recovery in a skirmish much easier.
I don't know what this will mean for anyone modifying the blaster.

I would not be surprised if Hasbro is really keeping an eye on this release. Just be patient. As we get more information about the Stampede, I'm sure Talio, myself, Litersize, and the others in the fold will let you know.

#280812 Stampede: Leaked
Posted by badger on 20 July 2010 - 11:57 AM in General Nerf
This is to everyone here that has failed to flame ricochet and has decided to instead just post a lame ass picture, except for durka durka and Mehku's images. Those images, like the one I have posted, fully describe the complete level of "What the Fuck" reaction I am having to this thread.
Talio, these people took to flaming Ricochet like they would to being invited to a gangbang. Instead of jumping right in, they would sit in the corner masturbating while seeing glimpses of the whore but getting full views of men's asses and their balls.
My soul has died a little bit after watching this debacle unfold.
#280513 Stampede Official Nerf Demo Coverage
Posted by badger on 17 July 2010 - 04:25 PM in General Nerf
They really aren't though. People seem to think that the Magstrike was inspired by how we modified the PC, but I asked about it and it wasn't the case. The Magstrike had removable clips as they were leaning towards a clip system. The designer I talked to knew about the PC mods, but the modders had no influence on them. They have test groups that contain their target audience. I also got the answer as to why all the blasters in recent years have all been springers. Their groups have said they want fast reloading (clips), more ammo capacity (drum clips and the new 18-shot clip) and faster priming (springs). They don't want to be reloading multiple chambers like with the Magstrike and pumping it like crazy every time they run out of air or darts.I'm glad they are taking some of their inspirations from the modding community.
When in combat, the Stampede would truly be superior as you don't even need to prime the blaster, simply pull the trigger. Reloading clips is faster as you don't have to chamber back the bolt to release and reinsert the clips. Now all you do is push the button, release the clip, insert a new one and start shooting. It is also cost efficient to do springers than it is for air bladders, both in material costs and engineering.
#280508 Stampede Official Nerf Demo Coverage
Posted by badger on 17 July 2010 - 03:25 PM in General Nerf
Eliminating the plastic behind the grip not required for the main housing and relocating the batteries as you suggest would actually make this blaster more unwieldy. Unlike the Vulcan, which was extremely rear heavy, the Stampede is well balanced. Moving the batteries anywhere else would alter the weight distribution of this blaster, which I was told they researched thoroughly. They learned a lot of lessons from the Vulcan. The battery pack doesn't seem to be a power sled like the Vulcan was either. The battery chambers are the back of the blaster behind the grip, and the travel range for the plunger system also goes back there, so I don't think you will be able to remove or relocate anything without negating the benefits of this blaster design.cut it off just forward of where the darts clear the clip/breach, eliminate all plastic behind the grip not required for the main housing, relocate the batteries (on gun/off gun your pref) and i forsee mad dual wield pistol possibilities.
I have *never* understood why anyone would create a long 'barrel' for nerf darts when the get their force from leaving the chamber.
As for removing the cosmetic barrel at the front, there isn't much you can remove without also cutting off tactical rails. If you lose the bottom one, you have nowhere to mount the combination bipod/grip. Cut back further and you lose the rail that the shield is mounted upon.
I don't think simple "hack and slash" modifications will benefit you on this one. If you want to modify it, it will take some more thought and precision, like the RFSG did to produce the Doomsayer.
Someone will figure it out, for sure.
#280476 Stampede Official Nerf Demo Coverage
Posted by badger on 17 July 2010 - 05:48 AM in General Nerf
The bipod collapses into the grip. There is a button on the top of the grip that ejects it. Contrary though to what the press release pictures show you, you can't sit the blaster down on the bipod with a 18-shot clip loaded. The clip is longer than the bipod.
Oddly, no one tried to mount the shield to any other blaster in the place, but it looks like you won't be able to mount it to any rail with a lot of bulk underneath it. If you look at the pictures on the site that Talio provided the link to, you can see what I mean. Now I'm just waiting to go to a war and see someone with the shield mounted to his NF. Once I get mine (whenever that happens) I will try to mount it to different blasters. The bipod/grip is also a rail-mounted accessory, so any blaster with a underside rail can accept it.
From what I observed, you may have a hard time installing a priming handle on this thing. I didn't examine it too much to see if it was possible, but from what I could tell, the internal design is set a bit different than the LS and other clip system blasters.
Talio, I didn't need to open that thing up to figure out what was on the inside. I just asked Brian from the Design Team.
Sadly kiddies, it is a reverse plunger.
#279738 Umd Dart Of War 3
Posted by badger on 08 July 2010 - 08:09 AM in Nerf Wars
I do have to ask though...will you guys allow my "Crowd Pleaser" again? It was allowed at the first Dart of War. For those that weren't at the first one I attended, it is simply a rechargeable confetti cannon loaded with stefans. It only fires out about 40-50 feet with a spread of about 30 degrees and took forever to reload (no way it could be reloaded in the midst of a round), but it did take out 3 members of a 6-man team in one shot. It's disadvantages clearly outweighed its advantage, plus it was unwieldy to carry.
#277785 Fuck It!
Posted by badger on 15 June 2010 - 08:03 AM in Nerf Wars
If I am going I can easily head down through New Brunswick. I'll know by the end of the week whether or not to count on me for a ride.Soooo, I'm going to be in Jersey the night before for a bachelor's party, New Brunswick to be exact. However, there are no trains that can bring me down there the following morning. Will any war-goers be heading through/near New Brunswick and be willing to give me a ride to the warsite?
#250909 A New Name For Nerf "wars"
Posted by badger on 19 September 2009 - 08:31 PM in General Nerf
The letter "O" in nearly every acronym (NCNO, DCNO, SFNO, NJNO, etc, etc, etc) stands for outing. Outing makes it sound like it is a peaceful gathering of those with common interests.
War should be a taboo word like blasters being called guns or the darts being called bullets. References to armor and shields should also be eliminated as these items are also related to war and combat.

First off, let me post the scores for the NH entrants. We had a couple of last minute judge changes on account that HeretiCorp (NHQ) and NerfDude1138 (FU) seem to have dropped off the face of the planet. Blacksunshine (NHQ) and Duckslayer (FU) have taken their place and have been a great help.

The winner for NH is A Side of Nerf.
And now for Round Two....and the problem we had. The rules for scoring on Round Two were simple. The entrant's original score would be thrown out and a new score would be created by the 6 judges that didn't evaluate it. For example, A Side of Nerf's mod would be evaluated by the judges from NHQ and FU, making a totally new score.
The reason for the long delay in getting the results out was that we had a tie for First Place. To solve this problem, we asked for another jduge from the forum that didn't have an entrant tied for First Place to give us his scores to break the tie.
And now for the final scores in a similar format to what was used above.
A Side of Nerf - NH WINNER

Congratulations to all the winners!!! Keep a lookout next year for the return of the Mother of All Modification Contests with possibly some new judges, improved judging criteria and new entry rules. I thank everyone who participated in the competition for working with the judges. There were a few issues with the rules that we hope to rectify before next year.
All winners will be contacted.
Finally, a piece of advice that everyone should heed and take to heart. To increase your chances of winning for next year, maybe you should enter on a different forum besides Haven. NH had a total of 39 entries, NHQ had 10, and FU had only 7. Many of the users that entered here at NH have an account at the other forums as well. You do realize that your chances of winning would have been greater if you had entered on either NHQ or FU? You had only about a 2.5% chance of winning on NH, yet you had a 10% chance at NHQ and about a 15.6% chance of getting into the finals if you had entered at FU.
It is also nicer to the judges at NH not to overwhelm them.
