Anway, GT: MercenaryXero

I play a lot of stuff, but not very often.

And a bunch of stuff I can't be bothered to remember. Feel free to add me/ invite me to any games if I'm on.



#183789 Nerf Shotgun

Posted by MercenaryXero on 14 October 2008 - 08:06 PM in Homemades

Uh, I have a question. Why would you want a silencer for a shotty? I worked out how the shells would load into the chamber and stuff, I don't really know how the pump would work. I'll try and get a pic of how to do the cylinder mag on the bottom (or top, which ever you prefer). I intend to use 3 different types of ammo, and this is why I would use shells. My first type of ammo are slugs, straight up 5/8 stefans. These would go teh farthest (obviously). The second type of ammo is kind of difficult to explain. It consists of chopped up stefans and two 1/2 in. to 1 in. stefans (I mean length not thickness). In bewteen those would be chopped up stefans (small pieces). It would be a flurry (again, obviously) but have no distance, its really just for affect (and coolness factor, not really practical). I have tested this types with a blow gun, and it does actually work. And thirdly, a spread type. 6 1/2 in. (my shells are 3 in. long I may shorten though so that my magazine has a higher capacity) long 5/8 stefans. I also tested this and it works beautifully.

probably what he means by "silencer" is CPVC pipe across the whole barrel, if not, then that is a waste


Dude, that was in 2006. >_>

#174652 Greatest Game That You Have Ever Played In Your Life

Posted by MercenaryXero on 02 September 2008 - 10:06 PM in Off Topic

I'd have to say the Golden Sun games for GBA. Unparalleled story with great mechanics. Now if only they would make a sequel...



#192649 Greatest Game That You Have Ever Played In Your Life

I've gotten myself into EVE Online.

So cash my mind hurts



#185511 The Official Snapbow Writeup

Posted by MercenaryXero on 25 October 2008 - 02:44 PM in Homemades

Its a cpvc rod with a +bow spring. The charging handle is a threaded rod with washers and a nut on either side, currently wrapped in tape for padding.



#185840 The Official Snapbow Writeup

Posted by MercenaryXero on 27 October 2008 - 02:58 PM in Homemades

How can you guys get your cuts through PVC straight enough to make a cocking bar like that? Do you use a table saw or what? Whenever I drill through PVC it's never on the direct opposite side...


I used a bunch of tape to make a template, then dremeled out the slots. Takes patience and eye protection.



#185492 The Official Snapbow Writeup

Posted by MercenaryXero on 25 October 2008 - 11:51 AM in Homemades

Functionally finished. I've been thinking about putting airgun internals, sheathed in PVC, on the bottom as a grip/grenade launcher style thing. The airgun itself would have some tubing running up to the top, into a petg barrel inside 3/4" PVC. Anyway, the picture:

#185240 The Official Snapbow Writeup

Posted by MercenaryXero on 23 October 2008 - 11:37 PM in Homemades

I recently completed my SNAP, which is basically a rev. 3 Snapbow with a charging-rod-in-stock design. Right now the front coupler is a bit leaky and the plunger head needs adjustment, but its still shooting okay. I should have pics tomorrow.



#185245 The Official Snapbow Writeup

Posted by MercenaryXero on 24 October 2008 - 12:03 AM in Homemades

I didn't have any teflon tape, so I sealed it with hotglue. (But my gluestick was depleted mid-application, hence the leak. Shouldn't be a problem to finish.



#220249 3rd Annual Mnsbw

Posted by MercenaryXero on 28 March 2009 - 08:55 AM in Nerf Wars

God dammit why did I wake up this early?

I'll be there somewhere between 9:15 and 9:45, assuming everything goes as planned.



#219965 3rd Annual Mnsbw

Posted by MercenaryXero on 26 March 2009 - 05:24 PM in Nerf Wars

Whats the fast-food situation around Newell? Still planning on going 100%, btw. Just gotta patch up my snap's back pump-handle and resecure the tank.



#215057 3rd Annual Mnsbw

Posted by MercenaryXero on 25 February 2009 - 11:55 PM in Nerf Wars

Will attend this as long as I don't have a vacation sprung on me at the last minute. Also Newell park is cash.



#179764 Fall Mnno

Posted by MercenaryXero on 26 September 2008 - 05:33 PM in Nerf Wars

So where's the staging area and closest parking lot? I see a few places on the map, just need confirmation.

The park has it's own parking lot pretty much. We meet in the pagoda off to the right. If you are facing the actually Frolf area, turn right. There is a circle part of the lot at the end, for dropping people off at the playground without having to stop the car. Head towards that and you should see the playground. The pagoda is just past the playground and has picnic tables in it.

My doomsayer will not be attending this war. It will just be too stressful to try and finish it now, and I'll probably fuck it up.


Hmm, I don't really see what you're saying. There's so many open spaces and buildings in that area. Cross-streets or a screencap (of the google map) would be highly appreciated.



#179776 Fall Mnno

Posted by MercenaryXero on 26 September 2008 - 06:01 PM in Nerf Wars

Thanks Venom, that map cleared it up considerably.



#179393 Fall Mnno

Posted by MercenaryXero on 24 September 2008 - 09:01 PM in Nerf Wars

Well, my BBB is currently eating dicks, so I was thinking of picking up a Big Blast or other airgun. Where are they most commonly stocked? Also, my dart supplies arrived today, so that shouldn't be a problem.

#178192 Fall Mnno

Posted by MercenaryXero on 18 September 2008 - 09:30 PM in Nerf Wars

Wow, I'm stupid. I thought the 27th was this weekend. Well, put me down as a maybe, all depending on whether I make stefans or not.

Also, If I do come, I might bring a friend. (Don't worry, certified non-douche)



#237038 Spano 09' The Phantom Menace

Posted by MercenaryXero on 17 June 2009 - 10:31 PM in Nerf Wars

Shit this war got real while I was gone

Unfortunately I couldn't get any cool new stuff done, I was in canada for the last week and before that I was working on lego shit (check out my lego shit). Add the fact of my lengthy departure the next day, and... no, i'm still coming, I'll just be a broken shell of a man.

So who wants to hide my body when I inevitably die of stress?



#232917 Spano 09' The Phantom Menace

Posted by MercenaryXero on 27 May 2009 - 08:06 PM in Nerf Wars

I'm leaving the state on the 21st, so I'll just pack beforehand. I'll be there, hopefully with some cool shit.



#237543 Spano 09' The Phantom Menace

Posted by MercenaryXero on 19 June 2009 - 10:57 PM in Nerf Wars

Due to space/packing issues (15 hour drives suuuck), I am only bringing a bare handful of guns (a pistol, 3 primaries). If possible, I'll need to borrow a couple of pistolas for the pistol rounds, or sit out. ~R

Unless your pistol sucks, it shouldn't be a problem. I've been using about the same numbers or guns for a while with no problems.

Although I'm certain there will be extra pistols that someone will let you use.

ALSO: If anyone has a spare inline clip, or one that they won't need during the ridiculous round, I'd appreciate being able to use it. My reactor hasn't gotten its fair share of use.



#248351 September Mnno 09'

Posted by MercenaryXero on 23 August 2009 - 09:42 PM in Nerf Wars

Strong maybe, I'm too lazy to check the calendar.



#250996 September Mnno 09'

Posted by MercenaryXero on 20 September 2009 - 02:47 PM in Nerf Wars

It sucks that I couldn't go to the indoor war, but I had stuff to do. One of these days I'll make it to one.

The outdoor war was pretty fun, my guns performed well, even though most of them need some repair. (that's actually the reason that you were spared the wrath of my SNAP/titan, the stock had a fracture in the section where the plunger rod hits it)
I thought my 1v5 last stand (or was it 4?) was pretty good, as was team powerball.
DTC was alright, but we need to figure out a way to prevent the times when rushers fire at the core after getting hit. I did it once because I didn't feel anything hit me, and the atmosphere of chaos as multiple people rush tends to confuse everyone as far as hits are concerned. Also, the momentum of sprinting at a wall and then wildly attacking is really only stopped by the wall. I suggest that the core be not directly reachable, as in high up/ behind a perimeter of some sort. The time we played it at highland went really well, I attribute that to the core being out in the open. Anyone else have any suggestions on how to fix this?

Where on the magical scale do CS darts fall

Because that's all I got



#255539 Late Fall Minnesota Nerf Outing

Posted by MercenaryXero on 06 November 2009 - 08:13 PM in Nerf Wars

Well unless someone wants to provide me darts, (or sell them at a reasonable price) I'm most likely not attending.

Or I could try to implement my auto-sword idea for maximum badassery



#258051 Late Fall Minnesota Nerf Outing

Posted by MercenaryXero on 05 December 2009 - 02:31 AM in Nerf Wars

I'm going to try and run a minimal setup, so if people want to have some extra ridiculous guns, I'll need one for that round.

Also debating making a super ghetto sword, considering as my previous plans were sidetracked by a month of messing with linux and other stuff.

EDIT: So my parents just have to go and schedule a family gathering today. Really sorry about this, but I probably can't attend now ;_;



#201504 Minnesnowta War

Posted by MercenaryXero on 06 January 2009 - 07:16 PM in Nerf Wars

Also, if any of you could check the field for ice... ice realy sucks.


I lol'd

Anyway, I'm confirmed for brawl as not coming.



#179856 Other Projects

Posted by MercenaryXero on 26 September 2008 - 10:56 PM in Off Topic

Well, I'm way into lego, if that counts for anything... (specifically Bionicle/ Technic)

My latest creation



#189414 Minnesnowta War

Posted by MercenaryXero on 12 November 2008 - 11:45 PM in Nerf Wars

I might be able to come, depending on what I've got planned around then. But using my SNAP with anything but bare fingers is fucking hard. In any case, I'm a maybe.



#202136 Minnesnowta War

Posted by MercenaryXero on 09 January 2009 - 07:33 PM in Nerf Wars

WAAHT

1. No, I'm not coming because of video games. ("confirmed for brawl" is a meme (also brawl sucks IMO))
2. what's this about changing the date/ sacrificing people for me? My chances of coming were very slim when I was a maybe. I'd thought that I posted a more pessimistic reply earlier, but I'm not going to check the history.
3. If anyone wants me to come that badly, you'll have to go kill my extended family, that's why I can't attend.
4. Fuck, I am so dead the next war I come to.



#273350 Spano 2010

Posted by MercenaryXero on 25 April 2010 - 10:35 PM in Nerf Wars

Ooh, I hope I can go...

Dependent on a few things, like getting jobs and stuff, so I'm a maybe for now. Should be able to say for sure in a week or so.



#274037 Spano 2010

Posted by MercenaryXero on 04 May 2010 - 09:24 PM in Nerf Wars

I am now totally able to attend, but 9am wars are ugh.

Seriously its already a pain to get up for the 10am ones.


Also, Beaver, I saw your project at the design show thing today, didn't see you though.



#275360 Spano 2010

Posted by MercenaryXero on 19 May 2010 - 10:29 PM in Nerf Wars

Turns out I'll be in San Francisco that weekend.

I'm ragin yo



#252314 Minnesota Halloween Nerf-out '09

Posted by MercenaryXero on 01 October 2009 - 05:03 PM in Nerf Wars

I'll probably be able to attend, so put me on the definite list. Now I have at least a little motivation to work on my current project.



#254997 Minnesota Halloween Nerf-out '09

Posted by MercenaryXero on 31 October 2009 - 11:54 AM in Nerf Wars

Oh shit I just woke up and there's nobody to give me a ride. It sucks, but I guess I wasn't prepared at all anyway
