Just bumping, and I also have some updates. I might have my sister (the same one that was at the March war) and her boyfriend come with me. Also, the member of my clan that actual lives practically in our battlefield, Cashew, but I haven't asked him yet, as is with Steve-O, the flaming hilt equivalent of my clan. So put me down for a possible 1-4 extra people. I know this is unrelated, but I don't know whether to bring a gun, it's purple, yellowish green, from the mid/early nineties, and usually sells for a lot, I am of course talking about the Ultimator. Does anybody want to try one out, like really bad? Otherwise, I probably won't bring it.

Hilt, clean out your inbox!

I would love to try out the ultimator. Also, I will not be bringing anyone since I haven't contacted them yet.

I'll have this for sale at the war.



It works perfectly fine. It's had two owners other than me to my knowledge. This was originally made by Falcon, sold to General Cole, and then sold to me. It was rebarreled by General Cole with OMC's PETG. The turrets are a little crooked but that can be easily fixed. I have no use for this gun so that's why I'm selling it. I'm asking $60 for this. Keep in mind, and new SF goes for $35-40. So this is basically a steal I think. If anyone is interested, please pm me.

I will also be selling a stock Defender T3 and a SM500 tank and pump. I might also sell the Crossbow, but it will cost you a lot of money. PM me with questions.

I'm for sure not coming. *sigh*

The very limited nature of time and money is coming at me…I’ve got a small business venture starting up, and it’s been eating my weekends, weeknights, and spare cash.

Ah well, it’ll give me more time for getting the SNAP-4mk2 built. Yes, that’s me looking for some small scrap of consolation. And it’s a very slight consolation, let me tell you. I’ll be up to shoot y’all another time.

Crap! I was hoping I'd see you again so I could get my screwdriver back...

[venom213]

Wait, so your coming for sure Bullet? What about Kanashimi?

If my sister and her boyfriend do come, it will be a very fitting war, because they are off to their first year of college at the end of August.

Are they nerfing? or if I remember correctly, she took pictures at MNNO? For atleast a little.

Either way, next weekend guys. Gonna be fun, and a great way to kick off my summer as I end school this thursday.

I'm coming 100% for sure, as are my two friends that came last time. We're still not sure about Kanashimi.

Busta, I might need to call off the deal we have, I'm not entirely sure yet. I'll let you know the friday.

[Ryan201821]

I'm still coming. I won't be traveling with my girlfriend unfortunately. She has an audition she has to go to which hinders her attendance. So I'll just be by myself.

[Carrtoon]

Well, damn guys. I was getting ready for the war and this morning I found out I'm going to California for 2 1/2 weeks. I was going to unveil my beauty there, but I guess it'll have to wait for the next war. Have a good one all...

By "Crossbow" you didn't possibly mean "Plusbow" did you?

No, a Crossbow. +bow's are disposable. Crossbows aren't.

Carrtoon, sorry you can't make it. That sucks. Hopefully I'll see you at the next one.

I will be coming but not with much. I will be tired no matter when I arrive since there is a 7 hour time difference. I also have a very large cut in my foot so I won't be running as much so my dad might let me take his video camera.

Preliminary Weather Report:
95, no wind, and humid.

Analysis:
High heat will induce thermal stress in participants and impede gun performance.

Solution:
Consumption of large quantities of chilled liquid and storage of pump-type guns and darts in a cool location with low humidity. Use of light colored clothing is recommended.

Notes:
Attendance is not guaranteed. I'll be packing along the cooler again with a 24-pak of coke and a case of Ice Mountain water (24 bottles I think) if I do come though. Might bring my vid-cam, not sure yet though. The battery on it doesn't work anymore, so I'd have to power it via the AC converter and it's VHS, not digital.

Status Report:
Longshot CS-7: Ready
Nitefinder AS-1: Ready
Maverick Rev-6: Ready

Secret Shot AS-2: Abnormality
Reason: Excessive plunger pressure damages/destroys darts. Looking for a solution.

Recon CS-7: Ready
Bow 'n Arrow AS-1: Ready
Titan AS-1: Ready
Magstrike CS-10: Ready

Business Deals:
BustaNinja: Canceled
Reason: Funding was impeded by lack of rain
Solution: PM for further details

EDIT: Sorry about the weird post, I felt like being a little creative.
EDIT2: Weather updated and notes section edited.

Damn, sucks that you can't make it Carrtoon.

I'll be there, but my latest won't be done by then, at least I think it won't.

Also, does anyone have a spare LS spring?

Loose LS spring right here, chief. PM for details.

Don't be a pussy, not coming just because it's a little too hot is a terrible excuse.

Update: My sister is 99% sure she is coming with, her boyfriend is about 89% sure. Cashew can't come, a shame because he lives in St. Paul. Haven't talked to Steve-O yet.

Seriously, you'll be ridiculed for the rest of your life, by me at least.

Last summer it was 95-100 degrees the entire day. Not to mention that I left that day at 4:00 AM, and left after the war.

Just bring plenty of water but, NO POP. It's pointless. It will just dehydrate you even more and then you will fall over and die.

EDIT: I didn't know it was going to be this hot. That's alright, I'll just nerf in the nude.

[BustaNinja]

I got no problem getting a bit hot and sweaty. I mean, as long as its doing something that is pleasurable right?

Ok, guns check, other stuff check, gonna be an awesome war.

Sadly, for VIP, we wont have my friend to play the part of team bitch (he plays that part well doesn't he?).

Anyway, whatever, its gonna be awesome.

Nerfing in the nude? COUNT ME IN.... as long as no one shoots my junk.

Don't worry, my sister is literally the team bitch. She was the VIP at the March war, and I think she will be reprising the roll again on Saturday. Ironically, all she did then was complain about how cold it was, this time probably how hot.

[Flaming Hilt]

The weather is not an excuse for absence.

It is a reason for attendance, as others -- namely mothers who would normally allow their children occupation of the playground -- will use it as an excuse for absence.

Opportunity awaits us.

I will be coming with Elf and few (few) others, and only one new gun if a new gun at all. But I will still be offering a challenge and taking in all the fun.
See you guys Saturday.

[Bullshit Dragon]

Okay, first off, my ride would be the one that backs out for weather.

Secondly, I'm a career welder, I'm used to temps of 250*+ The weather will not stop me. I have to say, you guys are as hardcore in the face of heat as us welders. I'll be there if I can talk my ride into it.

[Ryan201821]

Your ride can always just drop you off without leaving his air-conditioned car.

So what does the head count look like right now?

[Flaming Hilt]

Official:
Myself + 1
Venom
Ryan
Bustaninja
Sam
Elf
NerfCrazy

Potential:
Bullet Dragon + 1

Small but awesome.

[venom213]

Hilt, you make a very good point. Maybe we'll get to play more than the 3 or so tower rounds that we did last time, definitely more than the 1.5 we had at spring MNNO.

My sister's boyfriend bailed, so she is also unsure about going herself. Still haven't gotten a hold of Steve-O. Either way it will be an awesome war, but I don't think we'll have enough noobs to do noobs vs vets.

Also, what do you guys think of a close quarters rounds? Like all guns that shoot 50 feet or less, not just pistols. Also, I always thought that an infection/Zombies round would be cool.

Edited by venom213, 31 July 2008 - 01:14 PM.

[Ryan201821]

I thought up of a really cool game last night we have never done.

Neutral assault. Each team has one base and in the middle of the two bases there will be a "bomb". The opposing team must take the bomb from the middle to the other teams base. Respawn point will be somewhere off the field of play.

Human vs. Zombies, I have never been a fan of. So my vote is no on that.
