#40405 George Dubya, And 9-11

Posted by Lemmypoo on 31 October 2004 - 05:59 PM in Off Topic

...You can tell because he has more reasoning paths...

Read something funny in my paper today! The paper asked people on the street, "What are you most afraid of?" One dead fucker said "John Kerry getting elected." Get the feeling he can't vote this year with either of his hands for some reason, and I should also pick up a new tire-iron while I'm out!

Anyway, why on God's/Siva's/Allah's green earth would you write "reasoning" in anything related to George Dub? I swear to [snip] he had a Frontal Lobotamy. And since when did the word "path" end in an "s" in relation to Bush? And since when could Shrub write?

Now John F'n Kerry, on the other hand, is a very diligent note taker! Frankenstein's mon- I mean Kerry was scribbling notes with a Bic pen (black, 1.0mm, minus the cap) all the while George Dub incoherently babbled.



#40269 Dual Pumping The Rf20

Posted by Lemmypoo on 30 October 2004 - 04:59 PM in Modifications

Lemmypoo hooked up 2 rf20 bladders up, but it exploded very often.

THIRST

Well at least somebody remembered! (It was 3 tanks, but that doesn't matter.)

My biggest problem, suprisingly, wasn't tanks blowing, it was the hoses blowing up. However, that was because I used crappy fishline hose, perhaps nylon-6 tubing would be a tad better. Hrm....



#40202 George Dubya, And 9-11

Posted by Lemmypoo on 29 October 2004 - 03:58 PM in Off Topic

Heheh...this is where the argument comes in. There are two lines of thought. Mine and yours. Either Bush is the flip flop or kerry is the flip flop. There's no way to argue that successfully because each person has his own opinion.

Interesting point! My philosophy, of how an argument happens, is that two opposing sides think they are right when they are not. So maybe I'm wrong, but seeing as me being wrong would be "0" and the quantity of my correctness being a value greater than zero corresponding to "X", and the "Y" value would be a number approaching "0" becoming very small as I become more correct, the equation of rightness and wrongness would look something like this:

1/X

You can see that it is mathematically impossible for me to be wrong as it would be an undefined value and bollocks to negative numbers because I say so!

Boy I've been off one one today. Maybe I actually should do my bonehead calculus homework. (Oh yeah CX is gonna bust out e, pi, phi, c, sigma, and a whole lot of his other buddies to come kick my ass for that.)

Now do you want a relevant asshol- I mean opinion?

Doesn't it seem funny that Dubya is against Kerry for deciding to support the war in Iraq? I mean Bush gives shit to Kerry for supporting one of his decisions, what the fuck did Bush want him to do? Say "fuck you Bush, my car runs on Catsup?" Lemmy tell you, supporting your opponents means you suck and are worthless shit-- oh wait! I got that backwards didn't I?



#40183 George Dubya, And 9-11

Posted by Lemmypoo on 29 October 2004 - 11:20 AM in Off Topic

Speaking of which, I remember Bush said that "God told him" to invade Iraq. What the fuck kind of reasoning is that? That is a type of defense psycho murderers use when they are on trial.

God tells him to do many things, possibly including what he eats for his National Sexurity brunch. (EDIT: You know, I made a typo in that sentence, but I kinda like it, I'm just gonna leave it there.) But yeah, he sees this as a holy war, no wonder the middle-east hates us (I assume Israel secretly hates us). And people say the Pope will rule John F'n Kerry!

Part of the reason Hillary doesn't run is she hasn't been nominated, polls show she would get fuckin' elected. People criticize the Clinton years, but the majority of people want the Clintons back in the White House. Even if Kerry does a good job, I think he should step down, let Hillary get the nomination, and then come back after her 8 years are up and have a batshit crazy surplus to sit on.

What I wanna know is, why the hell didn't Russia tell us "Afghanistan sucks ass you guys!" I mean they went there in the '80s and said, "fuck this," after 10 years. That's right folks, the Soviet Union waged a full-blown military campaign against Afghanistan for 10 years and now we're invading Afghanistan looking for one guy with a 10th of our active troops. I'm sure most of you knew that, I just kind of felt like venting.

Fuck my monitor is fuzzy, hold on, DEMAGNETIZE! Arg! Piece of CRT shit, an LCD screen by the name of Samsung is probably gonna replace your ass.



#40161 George Dubya, And 9-11

Posted by Lemmypoo on 29 October 2004 - 02:51 AM in Off Topic

Actually, I heard McCain may run for the Republicans in 2008, not Powell (unless they pass an amendment for immigrants to run, therefore letting Arnold run for office). Let's just hope Hillary doesn't get the Democratic nomination in the next election.

Reverend Loveless tells me the liberals are all devil-woshipping communist faggots.


And the reverend has some choir boy abuse allegations against him, so does that make him right?

Just kidding.

Since when were liberals devil worshippers? I am yet to hear of a satanist liberal. The ones I know of are christain to some extent, or non-religious. On top of that, the gay community only makes up a fraction of liberals. Gun control is a step towards communism, so I guess you may be slightly correct on that. The thing is that communists are completely athiest, so how can a communist be free to worship the Dark Lord Satan™?

Personally, although I agree with many liberal ideals, I see myself as more of a libertarian, but the one running for office has less of a chance at getting elected than Nader. This election, I am nore concerned with getting Bush out of office, so I can live with Kerry for 4 years. After this election, the libertarians have another 4 years until the next election to grow in support. The Dems and GOPers have gotten too large, and it is only a matter of time before they start to collapse.

Hahahahah! You know I was being facsticious, right? (facstici- fuck how do you spell that...) The Kerry-Edwards bumper sticker spread on my hood isn't there for pretty you know!

I agree with AlextheBeast on this one:

"FUCKERS!!!"

Gonna bring back FDR some day, gonna have him run for office, gonna go to Russia and piss all over Stalin's grave for fuckin' up socialism.

Those will be the days, pint in one hand, my best girlie in the other!
And I will sing! Sing! Sing!

Ohhh I'm with the CCC and I'm ok,
I build public schools and get a livable wage!
*Chorus*
I pay few fees, I eat my lunch,
I go to the lavotry!
On Wednesdays I live in a shanty town \
and have grits, oats, and wheat!
*chorus*
I pave interstates, I smooth the lumps,
I like to opress non-followers!
I put on Women's clothing
and accept the budget cuts!
*chorus*
I feed the poor, give them meals
FDR said it, it's the law!
I wish I'd not been born in the '20s,
like my dear grandpa!

I am so, so, so sorry for that. To the folks who proudly worked for the Civilian Conservation Corps and transvestite road workers.

#39679 Give Me Liberty Or...

Posted by Lemmypoo on 23 October 2004 - 10:49 PM in Off Topic

Cheney would fake a heart attack to make a diversion, and squeeze ketchup packets over his heart. Then, out of nowhere, Bush would grab some log and go captain Kirk on Kerry and tear his own clothes in a feral fashion. Then, in the end, he'd scream.

"KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNN!"

Hrm, well we do it this way, Arnie and Jesse Ventura would probably rule the world.

But my thoughts:

Bush: Piss his pants, after Kerry punches him in the face with his purple heart fists of fury, compensates for the pain with alcohol, gets arrested for being drunk and disorderly.

Edwards: Looked well initially, but damn that inexperience! He eventually loses all of his teeth to the winner.

Kerry: Looks like the winner, while Cheney secludes himeself from the rest... and then loses to...

Chenthulhu! The elder god of all evil, he sucks all of his opponents' souls out from their bodies and becomes the lord of all that he surveys!

BOW TO THE MIGHTY OVERLORD!

And then Kerry gets up, gets his fourth purple heart, and blows Cheney apart with his Swiftboat's Ma-Deuce and then has a hotdog with extra heinz catsup to celebrate!



#39631 Whats The Suckest Gun

Posted by Lemmypoo on 23 October 2004 - 01:38 PM in General Nerf

I don't know, all those guns suck pretty bad but what about the detonator. That gun has to be the biggest piece of shit I've ever seen nerf make. Its accuracy sucks, its rate of fire sucks, its firing system sucks, and so the only conclusion I can come to is that the gun sucks.

Well it's uhhh.... compact.

Shit, I don't have anything.

Oh! That reminds me, I misread the first post, he asked "suckest gun" not "suckest ball gun" and believe me, ball guns don't suck, particularly the MBZ, fucker shoots 40' and has the second highest capacity of any nerf gun. I loved the ones I had. But, I am sticking with my claim of how bad the blast-a-ball and slingshot were.



#39581 Whats The Suckest Gun

Posted by Lemmypoo on 22 October 2004 - 11:19 PM in General Nerf

But all those guns have actual modding potential to at least some degree. I still think the Gyrostrike is the biggest piece of ---- Hasbro ever came out with.

Hey... Indoors, the gyrostrike is pretty good. In the few wars I've been in, when my friend runs his gyrostrike up to speed, everyone on the other team ducks for cover. Sure, it's not as powerful as a X-bow, but it's got enough power to launch across the gym where I usually nerf.

Please don't try to argue the Gyrostrike's positive aspects, I tried upon it's initial release to justify spending 25 bucks on it :P (Still think it's acceptable indoors as a defense gun, fairly good ROF, the ammo is enormous making it excellent for bouncing as well as making it difficult to dodge) They could have improved it enormously by using vertically aligned wheels powered by motors. But then it would be an MBZ with less ammo.

Most crap ballgun ever... I'd have to say the Slingshot or Blast-a-ball. I only used a blast-a-ball in combat once. I was desperate and bought 4 as collector's pieces, found a method to shoot them one after another, but then I also managed to get a Master Blaster at the same time, negating any reason to use the blast-a-ball. I like the Master Blaster MUCH more than the ballzooka, by the way, better ROF and more reliable.

Anyway, he he! n00ds! Perhaps it'll replace the use of the word "nudes" on forums? I.E. the NSUBB (Nylon Stockings Ultimate Bulletin Board):

D00ds!  I just found these bitching stockings in n00d!  They are teh ub3r 1337 st0ckings!  Just thought I'd let you know, and uhhhh my grandma died.

Trader joes coffe is AWESOME.

I would give most anything to have a Trader Joe's in my town. Anything except my pot

Posted by Lemmypoo on 16 October 2004 - 06:41 PM in Off Topic

I've never had Red Bull. I think I'm going to fucking cry! :cry:  Is it any good?

In other news, Pirates Keg Root Beer is the best beverage on the face of the earth.
~Halfling

Sorry man, it's not for youngin's.

Plus, I hear you have to have a pilot's lisence to drink it ;). I guess if you drink it alot, you must have a frequent flier's card.

Red Bull- It gives you wings!

I didn't like it very much. Another British drink is called Iron Bru. It's one fucked up drink, but it's pretty good. My Scotish friend always drinks it... they are addicted to that stuff.

Wait a minute, I thought they were addicted to Stout Ale- damn stereotyping again. I need to stop doing that.

Well I support Gay marriage as well, but what about furries? I personally think we should restrict animal-costume ownership. Any group that makes up words like 'Yiff' shouldn't be allowed to make up words for one thing. Replace it with a more outward "two guys wearing a horse costume for reasons other than a lame costume, if you get my drift." It's only 18 words. But no, they compacted it to a confusing and infuriating single word.

Does that make me prejudice? Probably.

EDIT: Shit, forgot to make my post relevant. Well the Bush-Pepsi folks are starting to take a stand, so perhaps my theory will prove correct.



#39031 Politics 'n Food

Posted by Lemmypoo on 15 October 2004 - 07:19 PM in Off Topic

How about Nader and Gin and Tonic?

TF

Change that to a Bacardi and Coke and I would tend to agree.

(sorry to all the victims of stereotypes)

My deal with pepsi is that it's too sweet, I tend to like a bitter drink more than sweet, unless it is obnoxiously sweet like Rockstar. But for everyday drinking I'm one of the folk who likes their tea and coffee as black as the night.

But granted, Coke has one hell of an ad campaign and I tend to dislike what corporate monsters they and Pepsi are. Then again, I'm also a Micro-brew guy, so my opinion is freaky-biased.

(The score so far is:

Hyphens: 2
incorrect casing on certain letters: 3)

OFF TOPIC

Sorry if this bothers anyone, just thought Id share my drink recipe that I use for LAN parties, named after the creator of course. "Fuse"

1 can Mountain Dew (Livewire is best, but regular is ok. Havent tried any other flavors)
1 unfrozen freeze-pop
1 scoop sugar (scoop like the small scoops that you keep in the big sugar jar, dont know just how much that is)

This stuff has been described as:
Great for LANs
Liquid Gummy Bears
"God, I just know Im going to have diabetes in the morning."

Good god, that'd give you some serious pick-me-up. Have you tried Rockstar yet? Incredibly sugary and obscene levels of Caffiene, it is the OE 800 High Gravity of caffinated drinks. About a $1.50 a can, but still, very good.

Well the Bush-Pepsi are getting some more votes, perhaps my theory will hold strong!



#38965 Politics 'n Food

Posted by Lemmypoo on 14 October 2004 - 05:55 PM in Off Topic

Hahahah! Nice way to greet a few refugees!

Oddly enough the poll is suprising, I was of the impression that Pepsi was primarily a Bush Drink and Coke a Kerry Drink. Perhaps we could have Pepsi taps at the elections...

Though I don't drink much soda myself, if Jones were an option (even attatched to Ralph Nader) I'd certainly pick Jones.



#38863 Real Ppk Mod?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 12 October 2004 - 03:42 PM in Modifications

Hrm, chopping the plunger tube gives me an idea. The Nite Finder is so freak-ass simple, I don't see why we couldn't Perhaps I may try that if I have some poly-carbonate left from my current "bitchin' mod". Shorten the plunger, and there ya go, it works. But not very well. That's why we compensate by getting a better seal. But with a Nite Finder that's tricky, as it's plunger is utter shit compared to the cross bow. More durable, but useless. Perhaps I should try and implelement a more sophisticated washer and see what happens. Either way, we'll see, I plan on working my Nite Finder later this week now that I am finally getting my father's haggard-ass shop looking reasonably clean, thus giving me some potential work space and tools to finish my project.

Now the Nite Finder is a tad on the large side for any walther pistol, but it most closely matches the P99 http://world.guns.ru...guns/hg14-e.htm . Not my favorite handgun, but hey, no use discussing real-steel here. Anyway, the point of posting that is take a look at the grip, looks more similar to the Nite Finder. Conclusion: Socrates will die. I mean uh, conclusion: make the Nite Finder look like a P99 and not like a PPK. (Any of you that have been in the presence of a PPK know it is inconceivably tiny. Wiley Germans.)



#38536 Titan, Hornet, Or Scout?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 07 October 2004 - 04:09 PM in General Nerf

The titan is remarkably bad ass, but I still like the hornet. 6 Shots in a semi-auto blaster, essentially my dream gun. I still need to mod it, and have a few ideas, but I am still poking at my "bitchin' blaster" which has made little progress. Still looking for a way to seal the barrel to my hand-made piston. Probably use PVC as a filler and loctite epoxy to hold it together. Good news is, it's the strongest fuckin' piston I've ever seen. Doesn't bend, nothing.

Anyway, that's for another post, what I am concerned about is, has anybody done any significant mods to the hornet? particularly with respect to long barrels?



#38086 Future Video Game Poll

Posted by Lemmypoo on 01 October 2004 - 01:32 AM in Off Topic

I know you said not to do this, but...

Your options suck. According to Electronic Gaming Monthly's official polls, Halo 2 is actually 3rd for the "Most Anticipated Game". Number one is the new Legend of Zelda, and the second is Metroid Prime 2, both of which you forgot to add to your list.

Why on eart would they pick those two to top off the list for "most anticipated game"? Good games, but they are both sequels to an already exploited genre.

Just rented SH4: the Room, impressed with it, nice graphics, but the fact that there is an alternate dimension in the shitter makes me want to make a retarded home-movie parody. Unfortunately my camera is somewhere in New Jersey getting repaired. Should a member of the Lawn Chair Mafia start pillaging, look for the out-of-date DV camcorder with "I like Bukkake" laser engraved on the side and mail it to the below address:

Wow, that was irrelevant.



#38036 Future Video Game Poll

Posted by Lemmypoo on 30 September 2004 - 03:49 PM in Off Topic

I have a few games lined up, the one I am most excited about is probably MGS3: Snake Eater, I liked vietcong, but hated some aspects of it, particularly Jungle Warfare was pretty much green-urban warfare seeing as survival was a distant second to shooting VC or Americans. Don't get me started on Battlefield Vietnam. Jungle Warfare and Solid Snake... guy sounds like an awesome combo.

SPlinter Cell 3 looks like it will take over the Stealth Action Franchise however. Snake eater looks as though it will abandon some of the conventions of Metal Gear Solid and opt for a more realistic Outdoorsy scenario (wise move Konami), but Sam Fisher picked up where Solid Snake left off. New Gadgets, COOP multiplayer, and hopefully the same rock-solid plot found in Pandora Tomorrow. SC3: Chaos Theory looks like it will be another game I call in sick to play :rolleyes:

Resident Evil 4 looks quite nice, less like a zombie game, though. Resident Evil 0 was essentially the exact balance I wanted in a Zombie Game, this looks more like Dino Crisis, but it looks like <i>bad ass</i> Dino Crisis.

But for computer games, a decent version of Counter-Strike is what I look forward to. I am tired of playing Dust and a couple of shit third party maps in CS:S. The game dynamics are close to perfect, including weapon balance (which I pray they don't fuck up, everything is where it should be). Perhaps 2 more weapons for variety, the same way the Galil and Famas were thrown in, to fill the gap between Submachine gun and Assault rifle. Perhaps a pistol, shotgun, or MG is slated, but I do have some doubts that Valve would do this.

Half-Life 2 looks good assuming it will come out... ever. The physics are better than Doom 3, and it looks like a flexible engine that will prove to be superior in terms of mods which is very good. I also dig the way single-player looks, running around in eastern europe chucking spider-grenades at marines gives me goosebumps. Multiplayer is iffy unless mods or Coop shows up.

Doom 3 is possibly the prettiest game I have ever seen. Also the smoothest running considering the graphics. I love the single-player and can't wait for their Team Fortress clone to come out. I hope Quake 4 will come out soon to take back multiplayer from HL2 (assuming HL2 comes out before this :P) and from UT2004.

UT 2004 impressed me for about a week, then I just set it down and never went back to it. Perhaps a negative association I built while watching the "Dirty Harry" collection whilst playing, or maybe the bloody feces, but I'm not sure. It is a solid game however. Just... not my solid game.

EDIT:

What.... the fuck?

#37984 Porn?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 29 September 2004 - 05:00 PM in Off Topic

He he! I saw that a while back and it still makes me giggle. It's office space taken badly overboard, but I still find the thought of somebody annihilating their computer everytime they see porno. I would go through soooooo many computers if I were to practice this.

Hrm, one thing I have yet to see anyone point out is that they have produced other videos, one of which I am watching now, but not entirely certain that it shares the same quality. So far, it's a nay. However, it <i>does</i> make me want to break a few commandments.

This one should have ended with a Goatse at the end of the hall, but that would kinda be counter-productive to their message, perhaps I could throw one in!

Ooh! This one is actually kinda funny:

#37876 Can You Do Anything To A Pulsator?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 27 September 2004 - 05:45 PM in Modifications

Not that I have tried this, but it looks like you could rip the orange ends off of the barrels and yank the black tubes out, replace the black tubes with the lightest plastic tubes available that are slightly longer than the ones before, then put the orange caps back onto your new tubes.

The point? If they are slightly longer, this means a larger ammo capacity, but get them too long, and it may kill the range.

I would also recommend cutting off the handles and replacing them with more sturdy PVC pipe to make it easier to pump.

Outside of neither of those ideas I never got around to, I'm spent.

I went to go see an African prince once... he won't call me anymore, I sit by the phone waiting for him to call back. I think he said it was too "weird" for him-- we're talking about the same kind of prince, right?

I wonder if anybody has actually gotten conned into this.

I shouldn't be up this late, perhaps I should stop watching Street Fighter the Movie and go to bed. God this movie is terrible. Almost as bad as Zardoz *Shudder*.

#35422 Problems With The Hornet

Posted by Lemmypoo on 27 August 2004 - 12:30 AM in Modifications

The form of valve used in the Hornet (and the Blastfire, Triple-strike, and Secret Strike Pocket Blaster) seems really prone to errors... Sum up all the problems with the aforementioned guns, and you have the many failure modes of this valve (if the link doesn't work properly, my apologies; I can't view my site from Canada anymore. Blasted Web1000). Really exact builds required. My prototype facsimiles experience the same problems. Very annoying.

My suggestion? Oil, pressurize, pray. Sorry to hear another casualty of chance; best of luck with the Hornets.

Welcome to the forum Joselyn. Good sig reference.

Hrm... so that's how a ss2's tank works on the inside. I always figured it used levers and a tank ressembling the 5k's. Perhaps I should have opened one from the stack I was sitting on a while back.*

Ooh! Airsoft knowledge applied to nerf! Don't want to revolutionize the nerf biz, but we should REALLY be using silicone petroleum free lubricant. Seeing as petroleum based products wear down rubber and latex parts something awful, they may temporarily seal a gap, but will eventually deform or make it crack. My Crossbow's plunger was a prime example, god that thing looked nasty until I finally had to replace it.

Where do you get silicone lubricant? Go to a rc hobby store and pick up a little bottle of lubricant. Remember, the higher the weight the thicker it is.

Why not use aqua-lube, KY, or some other more readily available lubricantt? Well besides admitting to yourself the intended purpose of said lubricants, they are a bit too thin compared to the high weight silicone lubricants. Plus, do you really want your air tank to "sensually heat up"?

As for my Hornet, no problems yet, but seeing as the outbreak of trouble, I wouldn't be suprised if mine ended up broken.



#35421 Toning Down The Titan

Posted by Lemmypoo on 27 August 2004 - 12:17 AM in Modifications

You know, this thing is sounding more and more like the old Triple Strike.

The whole missile concept, and then discussion of shotgunning it with multiple micro's in the barrel.

I quite obviously don't own any N-Strike gun, but brian's concept of leaving one air restrictor in is rather simple and seems effective. But i'm only guessing here.

I miss my Triple Strike :(

I'm thinking that micros are certainly too powerful for this (of course I will build a barrel for micros though, I wanna see if it can break the 200' barrier ;) ), but some of our heavier projectile concepts may work with this gun, I mean damn, look at the size of the rocket. It's like a foam crocodile with orange fins!

What do I mean by 'heavier projectile concepts'? All the crazy ass ideas about building fragmented rockets that would blow apart on impact were usually quite large and unwieldly. Well the Titan has no trouble throwing huge unwieldly things. I have a bit of an idea seeing as the titan has one of those air-filled nose cones that compress when they impact something. Perhaps an arrangement of flexible tubes to hold micros around the cone could use the deflating nose cone to blow micros back out the opposite direction and act as flak. Flexible tubes would be needed to make sure nobody get's knocked the hell out from the titan.

I am mostly interested in getting arrows in this thing, though, I have a large supply of them and think it could be usable with arrows seeing as arrows are not quite the best in terms of range.*

Lastly, has anybody considetred using the titan's missile for ammo? That is assuming nerf releases spare missiles, which I pray like hell happens soon, I guarandamntee I will lose this thing inside a week.

*I loved my Triple Strike, but the ammo was so rediculously phallic, nobody could use it without feeling like they were violating people with their gun...



#35168 Nerfcenter

Posted by Lemmypoo on 25 August 2004 - 04:32 PM in General Nerf

While the old format and color scheme WOULD bring back memories, I'm not sure that nostalgia is Andy's intent by making the NCforums archives available. He was probably just thinking things like mods, advice, etc, would be useful when you're doing research for a new mod or something similar. To tell you the truth, I miss the old NO layout...

I'm pretty sure that since the archived NCForums will be hosted on NerfHaven, they will share the NerfHaven color scheme.

I still have to get off my lazy ass and ftp them to cxwq, to begin with. <_<

Ah, good to see you're back Andy :)

I really like the new interface, is it flash? [Perhaps I missed it as I skimmed], but if it is, will there be a mobile site? Sure there is no real reason, but I want my toys to display reviews of toys :P

Mixed feelings on the NC forums, frankly I only post a couple of piss poor replies every now and then, but have fond memories of the NC forums.

Any other features like a gallery or just the same rock solid reviews?



#31240 Nerf Illegal?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 15 July 2004 - 02:11 AM in General Nerf

I can see why citizens would be concerned of paintball and certainly my decreasingly primary pasttime of airsoft as dangerous. But nerf? No real idea how most of our creations could be confused with any real-steel piece with exception to the Beretta CX-4... it looks like a Vortex Tornado, not even kidding.*

Paranoid soccer moms? Viciously territorial rednecks? I don't know. Alls I know is Nerf is the sport you take to the park and have a good time with the neighbor kids.

#17325 Xxl Bazooka?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 27 January 2004 - 06:15 PM in General Nerf

Yeah, it's pretty neat. Hah, although at the war i had with my friends, we stole all the rockets and hid them =). I opened it up, it's pretty simple. You power it up with a ratchet, and theres a spring attatched to the end of the barrel. You could make it shoot darts, but i don't think that it's really worth it.

No, not really. A spring that long causes an increasingly large expansion. The dart would leave the barrel before the spring completes it's decompression. (long barrel could help this, but you would need a healthy chunk of PVC to support that long of a barrel, increasing the front-weight)

I don't think you could mod it to increase power, it's already maxed out there. But the ammo seems flawed. The fins are much more difficult to bend than the ultimators, but as a result have less range. They still fly farther than a damaged ultimator missile, though.

I have found one way to increase range, the hole at the base of the nose cone is the exhaust point for the nose cone to deflate on impact. However the nose cone will colapse slightly in the air because of how flexible the tip is. Plugging the hole (I used a thin piece of duct tape) makes it fly a little farther and hit a LOT harder. I shot myself point blank in the jaw and it actually hurt, kind of like a brotherly tap.

As for pictures, maybe later, I can't find anything on google and my computer is still shitting itself over uploading pictures off of my camera. My Clie will come this week and I should be able to upload off of that no problem.



#17305 Xxl Bazooka?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 27 January 2004 - 03:57 PM in General Nerf

I have finally found the coolest nerf gun ever. Well to me anyway. Ever since buying this gigantic piece I have lost tremendous interest in my biggest fund eater, Airsoft.* It was only 30 bucks and has held my interest for days.

It's one of those new XXL Bazookas. I searched on here but couldn't find any info on this blaster so I created a topic to see if anybody else has any input.

It is simply the most comfortable nerf gun I have ever held, feels as sturdy as any airsoft piece I have, is light weight, and FUN AS HELL! The missiles are at the wind's mercy but the wildly out of control ammo excites me, the absolute power this thing has is great. Not to mention how intimidating a foot long chunk of foam flying through the air is in a nerf game ;)

Again, does anybody have any input on this blaster? I am having trouble finding any info on it-- let alone mods.

*I planned on buying a Classic Army AK, converting it into an Arsenal SAM-7--around 700 bucks for upgrades and stock sets. Now my list consists of a Famas upgraded to 400 FPS... about 400 bucks of price difference excluding the enormous shipping of AK parts for my item of interest. I would buy more Bazookas but I just dumped 500 bucks into a Sony Clie peg-UX50, geuss I can listen to MP3s while bazooka-ing! Perhaps I will use the intergrated camera to take some freaking pictures that will load on my freaking PC :/



#17101 Electronics In Nerf?

Posted by Lemmypoo on 25 January 2004 - 06:32 PM in Homemades

While doing some sketches on a soon-to-be nerf gun, I was thinking why noone has ever considered using electronics in Nerf. Battery size really isn't a problem: most things I was going to use can be fixed with 12V (8 x 1.5V AA) which in it's turn can easily be worked into the gun.

I was thinking something around the size of an SMG (two-handed). In case you've ever had the chance of holding one of them, a HK MP5-A2 is pretty much what I'm aiming for in size.

The reason that this is superiour is that you have MUCH smaller valves. All you need is a momentary switch, some simple electronics, and a solenoid. I have some electronics worked out that can switch between semi-auto and full-auto firing. I'm not going to post it here (yet) because I fear a) someone will run off with the idea and B) most of you probably haven't seen a boolean schematic :P

Just some design questions:

1) Why the shells? I can imagine that something like caulker rod bends when shot in the barrel and that PVC can hold it. But, shell ejection is pretty darn hard. The only system I can think of would be having an ejection port that is activated in my electronics (actually, it's worked-in atm) and have the spring (or, with a gravity-fed magazine, gravity) push the shell out. I just fear that this will jam a lot.

2) Can't think of any more atm ;)

Sounds simple enough. But your weapon is fundamentally flawed. Nobody is going to play against a home-made that is practically airsoft. Perhaps it will fire as gently as a nerf gun, but the rate of fire and controllability basically makes it an AEG.

One other thing, the MP5A2 is a little bit small for this. You could make a bull-pup with the air tank forward of the action. But if it were a bull-pup you would be forced into a low capacity magazine (~15-20).



#16571 Nerf Rad Teams

Posted by Lemmypoo on 17 January 2004 - 04:17 PM in General Nerf

You know, I never thought about it. But yeah, civil war tactics would work really well. The South first started using concealed sharp shooters in the civil war. From that came the modern American losers.What can I say? I'm a proud rebel. And remember kiddies, it's heritage, not hate. ;)

Yeah, hate wasn't a one sided thing, people in the north didn't particularly like black people either, Quakers excluded.

Not just the sharpshooting, but Lee's habit of flanking damn near won him the war. Not to say that flanking is the only way you can win, but it works very well in Nerf. (Last two sentences were built on the same structure for tax purposes)



#16558 Nerf Rad Teams

Posted by Lemmypoo on 17 January 2004 - 12:12 PM in General Nerf

What does RAD stand for? But the poeple I Nerf with, combined, don't have alot of automatic guns, so our wars are pretty much insanely huge guns. Like Super Soakers, long PVC barrels and what not.

Dammit, I wanted this topic to die!

Something spoon came up with, Rapid Attack and Deployment... somehow I think the early '90s styling of coming up with a word then turning it into an acronym after finding 3 loosely connected words inspired this.

Concept is basically a philosophy based on hit first, hit fast, and hit hard. Spoon could explain it better.

If you want a good playbook, pick up any book on General Lee's or Grant's maneuvers during the Civil War. Or the Mexican-American war when Lee was a little pup. 19th century tactics work great for nerf. Flanking was in big style back then and has proved itself in nerf time and again. Get the enemy squished between one of their flanks and your front line and you pretty much have that squad dead. The open-field combat style of nerf also works with the countryside fighting done in the Civil War.

Reading modern military history/strategy books is not the best for nerf. While it works for airsoft, assault rifles and mechanized warfare have obviously not hit nerf yet. Submachine guns are not even completely in nerf, the Powerclip and RF20 are about the only submachine gun like things in nerf, so stick to litterature from BEFORE Teddy Roosevelt was in office.



#16450 Tracer Dart

Posted by Lemmypoo on 15 January 2004 - 07:23 PM in Modifications

Not a bad idea. The lighter weight BBs I don't know about, but .25 would work great. <looks at drawer of various weight bbs>

Maybe I will have to try that ;)

Now glowsticks are possible. I saw some glowsticks for sale inside of a "prize machine" inside of a walmart. Very small and lasted about 10 hours. Glowed pretty bright too.

I don't think I would use a pump rifle or a cocking gun with them, but automatics with "glow-darts" would be awfully nice.



#16449 KB Toys Files Chapter 11

Posted by Lemmypoo on 15 January 2004 - 07:15 PM in Off Topic

Bah serves them right. When ever I go into a KB in a Mall looking for guns I've never found anything good. The only success I've had was at one of their toy liquidation stores like cxwq, and that was last easter. Obviously they aren't doing enough market research or advertising. The fundamental problem with toy stores is that over all they do not have a big enough share of the market to bargin with the power of convienience stores like Wal-Mart, Target and the like. Besides when was the last time you saw a KB toys commercial? I haven't seen one that I can remember in a very long time. People forget you exist if you don't pimp yourself constantly. Case in point: Wal-Mart, I see advertisments all the freaking time. TRU, I see add often enough to know they offer good deals on toys. KB, not so much, not even during the holidays which is when they should be all over the TV screen. IF they want to get buisness, when stores like Wal-Mart drop their prices so should KB in responce. Attention to detail. I went to look at toys in a KB and Wal-Marts a week after Christmass. I looked at the regular prices Wal-Mart was offering, not the clearance isle, but the regular section. When I went to KB I saw they were offering 25% off everything in the store. Wanna know something? Their regular pricese were such that, with the 25% discount, the cost to buy the same toy I saw at Wal-Marts regualr price was just about the same. Which means they had to mark up the prices before they put them on sale. No wonder their sales sucked, like I said before, serves them right.

Edit: I know Wal-Mart gets a better price wholesale for the toys they sell, (It's an evil corperation if I ever saw one. I'm pretty sure Sam Walton made deal with satan to allow him to sell to us consumers at prices lower than anyone else.) because they have greater bargining power but I still think KB should try to keep competitive prices if they want to attract buisness.

Awwwww...

A friend of mine works at KB Toys, hope they don't close his store ;)

Geez... That screenshot that all of the sudden started yelling scared the (thinking).... Stuff outa me. But with further reading it makes me want to make a UT map with extremely odd stuff happening, it alos makes me want to start WW3 :D ... :D .


Im too stealthy for your eyes :ph34r: .

No, seriously, am I the only one starting a cult over this? Because I got the punch bowl and the rat poison ready, get me some blue jump suits and I can write "Polybius" on the backs with a magic marker.

:D hehe ninja!

And no, the horrible face is not the point of the page, read the article and post your thoughts, the picture was inserted by the web-master, it is not the title screen.

Worth a looksie. I think it could have possibly existed, theatres flashed the word "Popcorn" in certain frames of movies and popcorn sales leaped due to subliminal suggestion. They have since removed that feature (FCC I believe).

The story seems like a hoax, but I believe the game is very real. I want to own it anyway :D



#8083 Rad 4.0 Foam Firing Robot Thingy

Posted by Lemmypoo on 11 August 2003 - 08:29 PM in General Nerf

ok heres my first post YA (nhq and streetbeyblade have way too strict moderators)!!!! Well im telling you right now DONT BUY RAD 4.0!!!!! If you want a RAD toy that is capable of performing unmanned missions, get RAD 2.0. RAD 2.0 can actually bend over and pick things up unlike 4.0 and also has 2 speed treads. Because it can bend over, it can aim the 3 missiles precisely. It can carry drinks and nerf guns too. Also, dont get the original RAD 1.0. 2.0 IS the best! Mine needs some tweaking, but if you modify one to have supirior radio range and mount a wireless camera from www.plantraco.com onto it, it can be the ultimate unmanned scouting machine. Its loud though remember that.

Rad 1.0: 4/10
Rad 2.0: 10/10
Rad 4.0: 1/10

I bought the 4.0 for 20 bucks (had to buy a battery... cost 40 dollars...) and let me say this. It is fun for a while, but the only thing you can do in combat is use it as a distraction or as a battering ram to piss of the enemy. I ended up molesting it and throwing it into my closet, pretty much useless.



#6578 Atk3 Modifacations

Posted by Lemmypoo on 05 July 2003 - 12:45 AM in Modifications

Thanks alot, but i was also wondering if the orange part of the barrels on the PETG mod that make the barrels straight fit over the brass. And did you use a hack saw or a mechanized saw?

One more thing... is it possible to completely remove the liquatron thing... i want to take out the blue thing in back, the liquatron, and pull a hacksaw on the handle to make it smaller....could do all that? thanks again.

Go for it.

The liquitron guage can be removed with a little trick. Unscrew the air hoses from the guage and connect them (adapter, or connect one hose directly between the pump and the tank).

#6329 Spiders

Posted by Lemmypoo on 01 July 2003 - 01:45 AM in Off Topic

Lemmy - Possibly the spider was living in your ass. There are worms that live in your ass... so why not spiders?

I am quite sure there are no spiders in my ass, I told the worms "no pets allowed."

About shooting bugs, it works quite well! I keep a few rounds loaded into my Spring mk.23 (don't want to give a "plastic texture" to the walls, I will keep my AEG shelved thank-you-very-much) and shoot any flies larger than about a centimeter. I'm a pretty good shot :(

And the chickens. Yes, the chickens. Chickens don't work buddy, ever see a moth eat a chicken? It's not pleasant. Plus chickens can't be kept anywhere near the house, they have like shit cannons built into their ass.

Also, apparently the moths have a CULT NOW!
