#260554 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 03 January 2010 - 02:07 AM in Nerf Wars

I slept the whole ride home.
Highlights:
-Couldn't feel my fingers early in the day
-Weather warming up
-Dart shrinkage messing on my dart/barrel bad
-My 1500 kicking ass even though my darts literally fell out of my barrels if I pointed the gun down and ran
-A good amount of my darts found
-None of my guns broke!
-Cold weather not messing with my air guns
-Getting a good amount of rounds in
-Calling chicken 200 different names except "flyingchicken"
-Nobody being a douche
-Not hitting anyone in the face!

I've already started making another 1500 turret, but this time 12 inches.



#260326 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 01 January 2010 - 01:03 AM in Nerf Wars

My dad told me a a different temp. than the real expected temp. that day. And sounds good.



#260261 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 31 December 2009 - 11:38 AM in Nerf Wars

Looks like it's going to be pretty cold that day. Make sure you dress appropriately.

EDIT- Does anyone have a +bow spring I could buy at the war?



#259750 Merry Christmas And Happy Holidays!

Posted by umpshaplapa on 25 December 2009 - 03:26 PM in Off Topic

It's not Christmas in Canada, ours is the 28th. But Merry Christmas anyways.

What the fuck I have never heard of that. Merry Christmas though.


I think it's because of the metric system.

Anyways, keep a close eye on your trees, you never know when they might be out for... TREEVENGE!

Merry Christmas to all, and a happy Festivus for the rest of us!

Last night we had the airing of the grievances.

Merry Christmas everyone!



#258818 Improving The Seal On Your Rear Loading 1500

Posted by umpshaplapa on 13 December 2009 - 01:09 AM in Modifications

Great idea. I have very little experience with epoxy, what kind do you recommend?



#258815 Popping Out The Air Restrictor? (longshot)

Posted by umpshaplapa on 13 December 2009 - 12:05 AM in General Nerf

Are there 3 pieces of plastic coming out of the center piece, connecting it to the outer ring? If you snip those pieces with pliers or anything else the restrictor should come out easy.



#258595 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 10 December 2009 - 07:54 PM in Nerf Wars

Speaking of pistols, I found your NF mixed in with my stuff from the war. Can I just give that back to you at SENO?
Sorry...



#258564 Splitfire Redux

Posted by umpshaplapa on 10 December 2009 - 02:44 AM in Modifications

What ranges are you getting?



#258452 Superlative Snap Plunger Head

Posted by umpshaplapa on 08 December 2009 - 09:18 PM in Homemades

Would the wing-nut slamming into the front of your plunger tube eventually become a problem?



#258296 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 07 December 2009 - 04:27 PM in Nerf Wars

We'll start at 10 and go until it's dark, allowing enough time for one last thorough dart sweep at the end. Are you/your associates likely to make it?

Yes, I'm pretty sure we'll be there.



#258213 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 06 December 2009 - 09:42 PM in Nerf Wars

Just to be sure, what time does this start and end?



#257500 Winter Seno '09

Posted by umpshaplapa on 29 November 2009 - 01:09 AM in Nerf Wars

Zax, check craigslist for "nerf guns". Some guy in Loganville has one.
I'll most likely make this war...+1. And I'll have pistols this time 'round.



#255939 Modern Warfare 2

Posted by umpshaplapa on 11 November 2009 - 12:22 AM in Off Topic

I agree with everyone else. This game pwns.



#255566 Hitting The Target

Posted by umpshaplapa on 07 November 2009 - 01:55 AM in General Nerf

Have you guys never seen a bad dart curve randomly?



#255117 Xbox Live Recreational Community House ---

Borderlands is the shit! If you want to co-op my GT is umpshaplapa.



#254576 When Do Nerf Blasters Become Too Powerful?

Posted by umpshaplapa on 26 October 2009 - 12:17 AM in Homemades

I agree with Bob. I haven't been to a war where someone has no fun all day.

I think the only time a blaster should be banned is if it's unsafe. Or if a large amount of people are complaining that the user is "too good" with it.



#254510 Bbb Breech

Posted by umpshaplapa on 25 October 2009 - 01:25 PM in Modifications

Is the piece of PVC what you use to open the breech?



#253767 Repair Question [max Shot Catching Mechanism]

Posted by umpshaplapa on 17 October 2009 - 05:34 PM in Modifications

Sounds like a problem I used to have. If it's like mine, your catch spring is out of place. Make sure it's as compressed as possible. I don't have my maxshot anymore to show you pics, but I would.



#253665 Airtech 3000 Overhaul

Posted by umpshaplapa on 16 October 2009 - 12:05 PM in Modifications

What paint is that? It looks AMAZING! That 3k is a beast dude, I need to go do that.



#253585 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 14 October 2009 - 10:50 PM in Nerf Wars

I do have video...

Video! Now!



#253269 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 11 October 2009 - 04:40 PM in Nerf Wars

Pros:
Said crossbow guy picking up a nerf gun for the first time ever and kicking ass with it.
Quill using my singled 3k and somehow kicking ass with it.
It never rained
A minimal amount of people with dogs
good turnout
Crossbow guy randomly showing up in the middle of the war, wanting to play.

Cons:
Rork's bigblasts
dogs
half my guns breaking, and losing a ton of my pretty darts

I learned that airsoft must translate into nerf skillz somehow.



#253001 Dremel 4000 Drops This Month

Posted by umpshaplapa on 08 October 2009 - 11:44 PM in General Nerf

The vents are placed in retarded spots! Win!



#252974 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 08 October 2009 - 07:13 PM in Nerf Wars

I'll be bringing a small red video camera to tape to my gun... try to film it all.

Fuck yes.



#252943 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 08 October 2009 - 04:32 PM in Nerf Wars

Quitting for "scattered" anything? Fuck that. Some of us have jobs and shit we've taken off from for this. As long as Zax and crew are gonna show up, this war WILL happen. Also, add another guest under my name. Ben is gonna be there...

The amount of rain expected to happen has dropped. As well as the thunder storm percentage chance. War is on. MAKE DARTS.



#252883 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 07 October 2009 - 08:27 PM in Nerf Wars

I hate the weather. Forecast calls for scattered thunderstorms. I wouldn't want this war canceled, but it looks like we may need to reschedule again. What do you guys think?

How about next week
EDIT- looks like it might be raining then as well.



#252707 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 05 October 2009 - 08:16 PM in Nerf Wars

50% chance of rain...so far. Too far off to be very accurate, but if it doesn't change, what ch'all wanna do?


Thunderstorms? If it's a light drizzle or something like that, it shouldn't stop us from playing.

I didn't hear specifics. Just heard about rain.

#251852 Fall Seno 2009

Posted by umpshaplapa on 27 September 2009 - 05:17 PM in Nerf Wars

I couldn't attend on the 10th, I'm having a war that day. I'll have to check if any other days don't work for me.



#251286 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 22 September 2009 - 03:23 PM in Nerf Wars

Also, I have two guests under maybe now. The 10th is a great choice.

Ya, I was worried about this Saturday because the rain was still going strong. But after today, it looks like I won't have to build an arc after all.

EDIT- just to be sure, you mean you have one coming for sure and 2 are maybes?

Made it to round 24 on Nazi Zombies the other night and got some sick strategies for lasting a long time. We need to have an all NerfHaven night of zombie fun soon, I'm tired of people backing out halfway through, our 4th left at round 11 and we still made it to 24.


I'm in.

Same. Ally way and window FTW. When is this happening?



#250799 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 18 September 2009 - 07:58 PM in Nerf Wars

It's supposed to rain all day tomorrow. I'm thinking about moving the war 2 weeks ahead.


Why not the next Saturday? I can't make it on the 3rd.

Alright, so is the war officially being rescheduled? I need to know very very soon.

Yup. Maybe we'll do next Saturday, if I don't have anything going on.

#250699 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 17 September 2009 - 03:08 PM in Nerf Wars

When are you thinking?

Probably a few weeks. 2-4.



#250696 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 17 September 2009 - 02:48 PM in Nerf Wars

Hey guys, if it rains as hard as it has been for the past few days tomorrow, I think were gonna have to postpone. The park would just turn into a mud pit.



#250377 Longshot Question

Posted by umpshaplapa on 13 September 2009 - 09:47 PM in Modifications

You might need to add a catch spring.



#250360 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 13 September 2009 - 08:21 PM in Nerf Wars

This is less than two hours from me. I might be able to attend if I do not have to work.

~Zax

Awesome.



#250301 A Nice Add On For Your Nerf

Posted by umpshaplapa on 13 September 2009 - 09:15 AM in Modifications

Wow your video had great quality. That mod is sick for recording a battle, but when I'm nerfing I wouldn't want to risk breaking my I-pod.









Well, you can always improve the design and mount it more secured. But there will always be a risk.

I would be more afraid of a dart hitting it rather than dropping it.



#250198 Ss2 Backpressure System Integration

Posted by umpshaplapa on 12 September 2009 - 10:52 AM in Modifications

Why such a short barrel?



#249979 Nerf Pains

Posted by umpshaplapa on 08 September 2009 - 10:10 PM in General Nerf

I think it's all about posture. I sit modding for hours, but I try to sit up straight.
so...listen to Bob.



#249941 Fano

Posted by umpshaplapa on 08 September 2009 - 03:14 PM in Nerf Wars

Forgot to say, Doomsayers are not banned, but if they seem to unbalance things I will ask you to stop using it. This goes for any blaster.
