I wish I could make it up for this one, guys. They change the border laws on June 1st and I won't have my passport in time for this war (thought I might, but no such luck). I hope the turnout is good. I know I sure would love to try my hand at smaller outdoor war! Have fun!

[mystefansdontflystraight]

YAY!!!!! Venturer trip is EARLIEST the 25th. That means Im there!.
I don't have enough materials to make enough stefans, so if someone could sell me ~20 that fit nicely in PETG, that would be very much appreciated.

[Dude13]

Would anyone be willing to sell me around 5 or so feet of PETG at the war?

please put me down as a maybe

Dude: Plastic tarps strung between trees with bungees work very well. We used this at HbH2, with good results. Stringing them up on playstructures also works, but this kinda means that no kids can use it, which may anger some parents.
Massacre style foam barricades will not work, wind will blow them over easily.

Mitch: If you do come to this war, please refrain from asking me how much I want for my crossbow. It isn't for sale, and generally most guns aren't unless someone specifies that they are. And please wait until the end of rounds to ask these questions, if you feel you must.

Good call. I have an idea, since the trees are far apart I could get plastic ground steaks (not meat steaks) and make 90* angle triangles using tarps.

I thought this deserved a bump...
And, while I was out of town, my parents chucked my big bag of mile high blanks.
Therefore, I have the capability to make..... About 30 stefans. Im commissioning Dude13 to make me 30, but that only makes 60. Could someone make me another 40 stefans? I will pay them of course. I need ones that fit snugly in PETG.

I can fill the gap, 70 darts for $10 plus 5 feet of PETG sound good?

On Topic: Today I purchased 4 tarps all 4 feet by 6 feet, would this be enough judging by the pictures? Also, the weather network says that there could possibly be rain on the weekend of the 20th so be prepared if the weather turns sour, I am hoping there is only cloud cover to deter parents from bringing their kids to the park which will mean we can use the playground as cover.

Tomorrow I will be taking pictures of Dentonia Park, a (hopefully) suitable alternative to Prairie Drive Park. From a satellite image of the park from google earth I noticed there looks to be more trees clustered together. Once I post the pictures I would like to hear some opinions on if I should change the location or not.

http://maps.google.c...=h&z=17&iwloc=A

Some initial positives about this park are:

-from google earth it looks to be larger than prairie drive
-there looks to be more trees
-closer to the TTC station
-closer to fast food outlets

Some turn offs of the park:
-no parking lot (parking on street)
-further from teesedale place

I will have pictures tomorrow.

[mystefansdontflystraight]

Im sorry to post so much in this thread, but what are people bringing for sale/trade?
Im not really selling anything, but I am interested in aquiring:

One of the following:

PAS
RFSG (doomsayer stock gun)
LS. (NEEDS to be stock or close to it)

No where near me stocks these. If someone has one or lives near a BPS or TRU that has these, Ill pay whatever it costs+ a little bit to make it worth your time.
Pm me with what it costs.


Im pumped. Hopefully if some maybes firm up, we will have 10 people.
FOof: that sucks that you are not coming.

[Dude13]

Alright guys, today I went to dentonia park, it is way bigger and more wooded than Prairie Drive but heres the thing, there is a splash pad which is currently operational which means there will be lots of children playing there.

P.S. Sorry I do not have pictures at the moment my camera crapped out on me at the park.

I may be able to come, not sure yet.

[Dude13]

Foof: You are welcome to come if you wish, I think you would enjoy it.

Pictures of dentonia Park






This is the confirmed location

[mystefansdontflystraight]

That park looks amazing! Im down for the change. I don't care as long as I can get to nerf, but it looks great.

[Dude13]

Less than a week to go, can any of our maybes confirm? Dentonia Park is in the lead with 3 votes to 0, I will move the location if these numbers keep where they are.

Oh and would anyone be willing to sell me about $5 worth of foam that fits snug in PETG?

Ok guys. Weather network is saying 80% chance of light rain, 5-10mm. Im hoping this plays out like HbH2, where rain is forcasted, but none actually happens. I will be bringing an umbrellla just in case.
Dude13: I think we should PM all the maybes. Crooked is one I have heard from Dumpster.

I just said I want him to go. I miss him. I don't think he is though.

Tank is pretty much a definite though.

EDIT: I just spoke with Crooked, he's in Quebec. I can't believe he's hanging out with a bunch of Frenchmen!

I'm a maybe, but I only have to worry about getting out of the house... fricking exams. but we will see.

[Applefury]

As we draw closer, my chance for attendance becomes greater. Dirtstache however will not be coming. He has to go to his aunts house or some stupid family shit. It would seem he is avoiding outdoor wars.

Detonia park looks really cool. It looks like you could do some pretty sneaky stuff.

[Dude13]

The only one who hasn't replied is Mitch S95. I messaged him but I doubt I will get a response. I think it's fair to say dentonia park is our confirmed location.

On another note: would anyone be willing to buy a rapid fire 20 bladder, turret, or a set of BBBB internals minus the trigger?

[Foof]

As I am probably coming to this nerf war, me and my brother have some stuff to get rid of.

Heres the List:

2 Airtech Tek 4's (stock)
1 Buzz Bee RFS with 2 clips (stock)
1 SSPB (AR removed)
1 NF Spring
1 Firefly Spring
1 BBBB Shell (Poorly Spray Painted Black)
1 Modded Maverick (Shoots like a Stock Mav)
1 Oversized NF O-Ring (Can be used for a BBBB or something)

These things are for sale or for trade.

Looking specifically for PETG and foam that fits rather nicely in it.

Just for laughs im bringing a knock-off gun to give away to whoever is the MVP of the day.
