Bump, as this, while maybe not as prolonged, is 1 week earlier than Valhalla. /me shakes fist at Twitch

Also, if the maybes could start confirming Y/N, that would be very convenient for us.

Sorry for not doing so sooner, but I will be coming for sure. And I may have a few goodies to bring with me too.

Missed your target there it seems, Boba.

This shit is going to be great. I'm improving my Frankenfucker v3.4 to be completely ready for the war.

Damn, bad-luck has rained upon me..Once again. My PAS Cocking rod snapped, so I guess it will be left behind this war. I guess I will only have one primary to use, seeing as I ran fresh out of PETG to mod my SM1.5K and my BBB. If my only primary, At2K, breaks, I will need a loner, or throw darts. Either way, I'm psyched for this war!

I'm in the same boat you are, Merzlin. I'm going in with a pump-action longshot (if I ever finish it) and that is my only primary.

I have an AT2K that's PETG'd along an AT3K done the same way. I will also be running to Cabela's soon so if anyone wants a PAS let me know.

I'll gladly work with anyone to make sure they have something so they don't have to resort to throwing darts. Just pm me and we'll figure something out.

The weather is going to be beautiful on the 11th! 50 degrees, 0% chance of precipitation, sunny..its going to be awesome! ...However the wind is going to be about 10 mph.. The low for that day is about 38 degrees, but that is at night.

I've noticed that wind predictions are highly variable, especially around this area. Hopefully we'll get lucky.

If any participant (or potential participant) anticipates any problems regarding the war on the day of, PM me and i'll provide contact information.

If anyone would like to purchase packs of my RED stefans, you are welcome too. They will be in packs of 30 and have Zinc coated bb's for weights/Steel Splitshot weighting. Colored hot glue is in assorted packs .


Posted Image

They fit CPVC and 17/32" brass wonderfully, and PETG for airguns perfectly. I'll only be selling a couple, because I'm saving some for myself and for a friend.


I will be buying some of these.

PS: I'll bring my new paintball/nerf thing along with me for shits and giggles if anyone would like to try it out. :D


No. No no no. No.

No.

Don't bring it. The last thing we need is to get in trouble for having a paintball ground at a public park.

Finn, I'd just leave it behind for this war just because there is way too many risks of bad things happening. This is down-town Chicago, being able to fire projectiles is a privilege. So nice accomplishment man, but I think you should just let it take a raincheck.

Good point, and thanks for calling me Finn, not BR1, more people need to do that (hehe).

Would a stock pistol splat be allowed in the pistol round?

Stock, as in firing those chalk darts or the paintballs? I would like not to be hit with either of those. What's wrong with a Nite Finder?

We will arbitrarily declare what is a pistol and what isn't. However, a good rule of thumb is that anything hitting that is a "pistol" because it looks like one will NOT be allowed.

Some examples:
- LotR crossbow
- Pistol splat
- Air gun* mounted on a LSFG handle

The pistol round ideally is lots of people running around and jumping/dodging/shooting within 40' of each other. It is not supposed to be a bunch of primary-worth weapons cut down or refitted.

*SMDTG will be allowed, since they suck, and you can maybe squeeze poorly modded NF ranges out of it at an absurd number of pumps.

Edit:

Also, thanks to rork and BustaNinja's work in Split's +pistol thread, ChANO is now renamed to "Cornhub Area Nerf Out"

The only "pistols" I have are a stock pistol splat (shoots NERF DARTS between 50-60 ft), and a modded LnL (shoots between 50-65 ft). I don't have any NFs. My friend needs to borrow one of my pistols, unless he can borrow a night finder or what ever.

EDIT: I found a maverick he can use.
