#349319 [IL] Halloween Hangover - Chicago!

Posted by Gears on 26 October 2015 - 11:58 AM in Nerf Wars

@Pineapplepies - Stock ammo more refers to no stefans or things that can hurt, I'll check em out at the war.

So is that a yes or no to China darts?



#349320 [OH] Hell Before Halloween III

Posted by Gears on 26 October 2015 - 12:02 PM in Nerf Wars

Woo! What a good day I went to a bar and drank.

You missed a great war I got to see Coop772 and even though he wouldn't take a selfie with me and wouldn't pick me to be on his team it was presence was indeed a present.

Koree came over while I was home for Christmas and I wanted to make a supergun without putting in any effort. Below it is a Panther JLego made me for my bday a couple years ago.

#353220 Michigan Interest?

Posted by Gears on 03 May 2016 - 01:27 PM in Nerf Wars

I would be interested in attending a war with only modded nerf guns. I probably won't remember this later, though.

 

Same. I'd drive as far as Grand Rapids for a legit NIC war.




#353565 Nerf Wars Pictures/Footage Thread

Photographic proof that Season of Foam was once a thing:

And here is a group shot from the second war Ice hosted in Springfield, PA. It was the second of nearly 20+ wars hosted at that park before eventually relocating to Smedley.

And finally, here is an action shot from my second most favorite war of last year, Beaver's summer SPANO 2015. The field was excellent, and it was the first time I got to play with some faces I hadn't seen since Cataclysm a few years ago. An excellent war with excellent Nerfers.

What kind of war have you decided to host? NIC/DIY? Superstock? I think that's going to be the deciding factor for a lot of people.

I'm from Chicago.

And a quick project I threw together for a war this weekend. A Supermaxx 5000 (SM5K) with a BRISC.

Posted by Gears on 15 June 2016 - 09:51 AM in Nerf Wars

I'll probably come if Hoongfu does.




#354408 Indianerfolis 2016

Posted by Gears on 20 June 2016 - 09:27 PM in Nerf Wars

Dang! Then you can COUNT ME OUT.




#354439 Indianerfolis 2016

Posted by Gears on 21 June 2016 - 04:05 PM in Nerf Wars

Sorry I had a real rough time adulting today at work and now that Hoongfu isn't going I just can't even... 

At least there is NvZ! Effeminate HvZ FTW!!!!




#354467 Philadelphia Area Nerf War - July 31st - SuperStock only!

Posted by Gears on 22 June 2016 - 11:18 AM in Nerf Wars

Would you be interested in doing an NIC war at this location some time in the future?




#354643 Looking back at 14 years in the LGLF...

Posted by Gears on 28 June 2016 - 04:02 PM in Off Topic

I'm at work and I'm feeling emotional and this is my most favorite NerfHaven post in the entire world.

I love you guys so much. 

 

 

I love this clan, and the people who are in it.  It's been an incredible 14 year journey and I wouldn't trade it for anything.  I know we're scattered all over the country now, and I'm well past my nerf expiration date, but I'll keep going if you do.  Thanks guys. 

 

 

I'll try to keep up.

Tim isn't letting me come. 




#355123 Apocalypse 2016 - August 6th in Ocean Township, NJ

Posted by Gears on 21 July 2016 - 09:29 AM in Nerf Wars

 

Fuck, I hope so. I want to see what the lush fields of the Garden State have to offer me and my Pokedex. 

ALL the Grimer!




#355341 3D Printed Big Blast Triggers

Posted by Gears on 02 August 2016 - 09:07 PM in Homemades

Thank you so much for putting these together! I'll try and have a couple printed before Apoc this weekend!




#355431 Apocalypse 2016 - August 6th in Ocean Township, NJ

Posted by Gears on 08 August 2016 - 09:24 PM in Nerf Wars

Note: Writing this up on the plane home. Stand by for format hell.

Apoc2016 (AKA, Dicks Up, Beers Down) was undoubtedly one of the most enjoyable Apoc events of the last few years. The roster was well balanced with vets and fresh talent alike, and I couldn't be more happy. To everyone who raised their hands when Langley asked, "...if this is your first Apoc...": Keep Nerfing.

Apoc stands as the most competitive war in the entire world.

Pros:
- Reuniting with the LGLF and Sex Dwarves and Twins and Mag7 and Twinks and U3.
- The informal debut of the Sweet Juice Wizards.
- Conducting said wizardry with Zorn.
- (Big) Blasting fools with Ice9 for the first time in nearly four years.
- Frequent morale boosts from OMC.
- Chicken always being extra fabulous, and the silent shattering of my heart when he was always sniped from my early picks in 3-15.
- Mystic/Instinct dominating Team Valor during the unavoidable Pokemon Go speed round.
- Breaking Ice9's world record hit by landing a 282' shot on Groove while hidden in the foliage of the crescent and he in the woods with my breeched UMB (Unapologetically Milky Butt). I went back on Sunday and measured the exact distance by finding the exact dart I shot on the ground exactly where he was hit (thankfully it wasn't dart swept), bringing my overall confirmed kills throughout the day to 1, coming out to 476(1C, 475UC)/16/0 K/D/A.
- We Are...!
- The direct correlation between levels of getting wrecked and having a blast during Dom/Chickens Wingman rounds.
- Slug!
- Entering every round mentally prepared to get ruined by the Wonder Twins. (Status: Ruined.)
- Getting a chubby over Lucian's totally cool super-pump marshmallow cannon. Gimme that STL, yo!
- Continuing my legacy as the Queen of Hearts.
- Mead.
- Popcorn.
- Harley butt.
- Activating Jlego Mode and launching myself through the air during the final Pistols/Drac Rocket VIP round of the day, and not accidentally breaking someone's face in the process.

Cons
- Suicide Squad scenes that did not involve Harley butt.
- Elevator illustrations not involving Team Freight Elevator.

Thank you Langley and Ted for putting on the event and making the event possible. I love you guys so fucking much

At Apoc I ran a less exciting blaster for the majority of the day (pretty much only ran my 4B during choice rounds.) For the past five six years I have ran a UMB as my primary when not running my Crossbow. This year I ran a supa' long breech because fuck making darts. Naturally I would find magical LGLF tape the day I came home for a sub-optimal cheese speedloader.

#355753 The Dart Zone Magnum : Review and Internals Guide

Posted by Gears on 24 August 2016 - 08:21 AM in General Nerf

Well done, Van. It makes me happy knowing there are people who understand the philosophy of a great HvZ blaster. As Ice Nine mentioned, I gushed heavily about this blaster with the Apoc-afterparty attendees.

I have full intentions of running this during my Fall Invitational circuit (Ball State/Purdue/YSU), and I'm probably going to run it stock (with the exception of removing the wrist brace, you're correct, it's terrible.)

Superstock or NIC/DIY?
