#50975 Sony Psp

Posted by Jakethesnake on 29 March 2005 - 01:12 AM in Off Topic

I don't understand how you guys can afford all this stuff, there's no way i can afford to spend that much money on just video games.



#68421 Wtf

Posted by Jakethesnake on 27 November 2005 - 12:08 PM in Off Topic

this is probably just a second account made by him to piss everyone off.


For sure, this is his first post, does he actually believe that we'll think some random guy with a random french username just decided to make his first post on this subject, that is another reason why you got banned, you're an idiot. But you can't help it, you're french.



#67849 Why

Posted by Jakethesnake on 16 November 2005 - 11:00 PM in Off Topic

I like nerf more than airsoft or paintball for almost every reason stated above, I don't know if anybody mentioned the spray and pray tactic involved with airsoft and paintball but that doesn't work when you are nerfing (in most cases). When you nerf you have to make every shot count, shelling out half a dozen rounds is common practice in paintball and airsoft, but in nerf if you don't have a decent aim, running around shooting round after round into oblivion doesn't generally cut it, which is what I see in every other shooting sport. I like nerf the most because you spend 1 minute planning 1 shot, in airsoft you most likely spend 5 seconds shooting 12+ rounds.
Also, mommy can buy you the most expensive airsoft gun and you can be ready to play the moment you open the package. If mommy buys you a NIB X-bow and you take it to a war, you will get owned, you have to take the time to modify it, which adds a sense of accomplishment and personalization, something you don't get from airsoft, and I know you can customize your airsoft gun but not for $10, which is what it will cost you to turn the crappiest gun into one badass piece of foam flinging doom.



#63152 'big Bad' Glory

Posted by Jakethesnake on 05 September 2005 - 09:16 PM in General Nerf

From the sounds of it, I think with a dremel, the restrictor should be no problem at all. Also, I'm liking the red arrows, very nice, yellow is too retro, red does the trick nicely.



#50129 Ipods

Posted by Jakethesnake on 20 March 2005 - 11:16 PM in Off Topic

Yeah, i haven't heard about the newer one, when does it come out, anybody have pics of it yet?



#60288 Far Revisited

Posted by Jakethesnake on 26 July 2005 - 09:57 PM in Homemades

If the crossbow in this thread will work I might be coaxed into donating it. It's just got square brass tubing on each side of the cocking handle, not sure if you can make that work.

#62723 Far Revisited

Posted by Jakethesnake on 29 August 2005 - 03:42 PM in Homemades

I toyed with the idea of putting blank shells in my stefans to kick back the bolt like in a real gun, but it might incinerate my darts.


That, and the far is made out of plastic.



#62743 Far Revisited

It's all in the spreadsheet he made up in excel.



#64079 Hurricane Rita

Posted by Jakethesnake on 21 September 2005 - 08:59 PM in Off Topic

Hey maybe I can take some video of the storm and post it.


You should, that would be neat. Piney, that's a good idea about keeping a container full of water around, sounds like you're pretty experienced there.



#53061 Whats So Special About The Titan?

Posted by Jakethesnake on 21 April 2005 - 12:13 AM in General Nerf

I'm sorry, I meant "power happy"



#53055 Whats So Special About The Titan?

Posted by Jakethesnake on 20 April 2005 - 11:40 PM in General Nerf

Talk about power hungry.



#56369 Lucky Finds

Posted by Jakethesnake on 02 June 2005 - 01:06 PM in General Nerf

Where did you get the cases of PC's I mean did you have to ask them to go to the back and get some for you?



#56344 Lucky Finds

Posted by Jakethesnake on 02 June 2005 - 12:48 AM in General Nerf

PC for 2.99
Wildfire 3.99
Eab 2.99
Secret Shot I or 1? i dunno the first secret shot-.99
SM 3000 yellow tank 3.99


All at goodwill or various thrift stores. Patience though, it took me 2 months for all that, and I'm still searching.

Uh....yeah, that's definetally an ingredient for success. . .



#56836 Buxx Bee Toys

Posted by Jakethesnake on 07 June 2005 - 12:16 AM in General Nerf

Shell ejection is very cool, but range is horrible, but I would get one if I were you just for the novelty.



#56830 Buxx Bee Toys

Posted by Jakethesnake on 06 June 2005 - 10:51 PM in General Nerf

Yeah, they are cool to look at but they are much crap.



#50151 Cxwq Crosses Into The Realm Of Pop Culture

I'm sorry i'm not perfect, maybe that should be in the code of conduct.



#50134 Cxwq Crosses Into The Realm Of Pop Culture

Posted by Jakethesnake on 20 March 2005 - 11:50 PM in Off Topic

Can you do me a favor and tell me what i did wrong, because i'm not seeing it bud.



#50502 Cxwq Crosses Into The Realm Of Pop Culture

I wasn't being helped, i was being ripped on, but it's all good ;)



#61903 Nerf Arena

Posted by Jakethesnake on 14 August 2005 - 01:07 AM in Nerf Wars

I think after a while, and word got out, and it became mainstream, people would do it a lot and you could actually build a business around it. But getting it popular would be the hard part. I think people struggle with the word nerf, because they associate it with kids toys, but in reality, they really are just kids toys.



#70325 Announcing The First Annual Now (nerf Oregon War)

Posted by Jakethesnake on 02 January 2006 - 08:22 PM in Nerf Wars

It's not quite in albany, about 15-20 minutes outside of town. I live on the outskirts of a tiny town called Scio, not sure if you've heard of it. That would be great if you can come. It's looking like a pretty small war, but we don't need an extremely large amount of people to have an enjoyable afternoon of nerfing. If your prices are cheap I'd be interested in most of your guns. As for where we are nerfing at, here are a few pictures of my place.

#70347 Announcing The First Annual Now (nerf Oregon War)

Posted by Jakethesnake on 03 January 2006 - 01:58 AM in Nerf Wars

Yes, it is a christmas tree farm during december and a small tamed forest during the other months. I can probably muster up 1 or 2 people so at the least we'll have 6 people, I can probably round up a few more friends but 3 on 3 is at least playable. Playing "Attack and Defend" with the tree fort in the picture is extremely fun. I too use only micros so that shouldn't be much of a problem. As for dates, march is fine, I just need a couple weeks notice to take the day off from work.



#70260 Announcing The First Annual Now (nerf Oregon War)

Posted by Jakethesnake on 01 January 2006 - 11:50 PM in Nerf Wars

Alright I've been a member on the forums here for a bit and there's never (according to my nerf war knowledge) been an official nerf out in oregon so as of 2006 there is going to be a semi-annual Nerf Oregon War. Ogopogo and I are organizing the war and there are no official dates yet, but contact us or more prefferably post in this thread if you are able to attend. There is going to be one war around spring time and one during the fall. The wars will be held at my house which is located about 30 min. south of Salem. I know to about %99 of you this post doesn't apply but I wanted to announce this so I can get the word out. I will have pictures of the location up tommorrow.

I credit Ogopogo for taking the initiative to try and organize something I was too lazy to start by myself

You've never heard of the OC!!! i agree the show kinda sucks, but mischa barton is hella hot, so i watch it every once in a while.

Yeah, I've never even heard of it.



#57433 Nite Finder Better Stock?

#70073 When Titans Fall

Posted by Jakethesnake on 29 December 2005 - 02:31 AM in Modifications

Just try the 3 in 1 oil on it, what's the worst that can happen? If that doesn't work then report back.



#70112 When Titans Fall

Posted by Jakethesnake on 29 December 2005 - 07:32 PM in Modifications

That has got to be one of the stupidest ideas I've heard in a long time, among others, are "opening up the airtank" and simply "put some epoxy around the pin". If you guys have no experience with modding a titan, or from your answers, any gun at all, then just don't post.



#67252 New Google Group:nerf Guns

Posted by Jakethesnake on 06 November 2005 - 09:40 PM in General Nerf

I just think it would change the meaning of nerf if it became less "underground".



#67185 New Google Group:nerf Guns

Posted by Jakethesnake on 06 November 2005 - 12:56 AM in General Nerf

With all due respect to viper, I don't think I want nerf getting much more exposure than it already does. I mean, nerf isn't nerf unless it's underground you know? I just think it would change nerf if all of a sudden this site grows by 1,000 members overnight. It just wouldn't be the same.



#67273 New Google Group:nerf Guns

Posted by Jakethesnake on 07 November 2005 - 01:51 AM in General Nerf

Nerf is underground because %99.9 of the world does not know what a quad cpvc'd at2k is.

Edit Viper beat me and I'm sorry if I started a discussion that went off topic in your thread vipe.



#56044 Nba

Posted by Jakethesnake on 30 May 2005 - 02:21 PM in Off Topic

Spurs will take it all the way, they are way too solid of a team with tim to lose.



#56345 Nba

Posted by Jakethesnake on 02 June 2005 - 01:15 AM in Off Topic

A couple years ago they changed the format of the playoffs and decided to stretch the games out, particularly at this point in the playoffs where there's only, well, 3 teams as of tonight :lol: (go spurs!!!!) But I think their new format sucks horribly, the finals used to be over by this time but now they're not even started, granted sometimes things go longer because the series are taken to 7 games, but they also changed the first round from best out of 5 to best out of 7, that also didn't help shorten things.



#65908 Pick An MP3 Player

Posted by Jakethesnake on 16 October 2005 - 03:01 AM in Off Topic

Go for a nano, I don't know who above said that some other mp3 player had a better gui, but I don't care how much you hate ipods, the gui on ipod's are amazing. I personally have a nano, and have had no problems with it, just buy a protective case for it, the screen scratches pretty easily.



#63292 The Loud Nf

Posted by Jakethesnake on 07 September 2005 - 09:43 PM in General Nerf

but your gun will be so quiet you can basically sneak up and barrel tap your opponents instead of shooting them anyways.

Now, not that that isn't a good Idea or anything, but If you were going to tap them with the barrel, why not just leave the range as is? the gun doesn't make noise when you're not loading or shooting.

Because if you leave the gun "as is" then it will be loud and you wouldn't be able to be so quiet. Didn't you read my post in this thread?



#64129 Gun Porn!

Posted by Jakethesnake on 22 September 2005 - 08:11 PM in Off Topic

Jeez, I didn't realize how expensive those things were.



#63224 The Loud Nf

Posted by Jakethesnake on 06 September 2005 - 07:38 PM in General Nerf

I found that taking the spring out completely greatly decreases the amount of noise the NF makes. Of course, you're going to sacrifice a little bit of range but your gun will be so quiet you can basically sneak up and barrel tap your opponents instead of shooting them anyways.



#53309 Stefan Making Tip

Posted by Jakethesnake on 24 April 2005 - 12:52 AM in General Nerf

About the flat tip dart/pain theory, think of it like this, the dome tipped darts are like doing a cannon ball in the water, it doesn't hurt to jump in, but a flat tipped dart is like a belly flop, it hurts like a mother, so, I think flat tips would hurt more, but again, that's just my theory.



#62759 Punisher Skull On My Ar

Posted by Jakethesnake on 30 August 2005 - 01:47 AM in Off Topic

I'm not saying the skull looks bad, but I just think it looks better without it.



#62757 Punisher Skull On My Ar

Posted by Jakethesnake on 30 August 2005 - 01:11 AM in Off Topic

Adding a punisher skull on something that merely shoots foam is pretty ridiculous in my opinion. Leave the far alone, I think it looks better just flat black all around.
