2 wars are good for me! The 1 week in between is relieving, I need time to make more darts and what not.

I think that two wars would be a good idea, one on the 3rd, and one on the 17th. I have a higher chance of going if one is on the 3rd.

What about the 10th?

Maybe we should have a warm-up war on the 10th or the 3rd, and let Chano be the 17th.

My vote is to go with the 3rd for a warmup.

I would prefer the 10th, because there's a higher chance of grabbing the MN guys. Ideally, this pre-war gets everyone that can't go to the main event.

The only bad thing would be if all my guns broke at this war and I don't get enough time in between to fix :|

17th is a better date for me, unless I can hitch a ride with someone else, as I will not have car-age on the other dates.

I am fairly sure I am set for the 17th, its all pending on if I have a place to stay with relatives.

The date is set to the 17th.

If we want to do a warm-up war the 3rd or the 10th, I can start a separate thread when the date gets closer.

My Mazda gets almost 30 MPG but only carries 4 comfortably- any date is fine for me, if I ask off in advance. Whenever other MN Nerfers would be free, I can run a carpool down to the Windy City.

P.S. if you Chicagoans want to meet up for tea and crumpets, on any given day of the week, that's well and fine- hopefully we ALL can find a date that would allow for the biggest, baddest, Nerf war possible.

Hey Ryan, how are the lights out there? I haven't been to that place in a long while and forget how it gets when dark. Also just in case I need to strap a flashlight to anything I'm packing or *gasp* using photoelectric darts or a firefly.


All-firefly night round, anyone?

Should we have a vote on which day to have the pre war then?

And I don't know about the firefly round. I would rather not have to buy a gun just for this...

If we go by the previous poll it would be the 10th.

Okay.

Then let's have a warm-up war the 10th. I'll post a separate thread in when the date gets a little closer.

Crap, I'm running in the Urbanathlon in the Loop on the 17th. When I'm done I'll try and make it back post-haste, but it's highly unlikely. I'm still on for the 10th though.

Since it looks like attendance will be over 20 people, with a possibility of having close to 40, would anyone object to paying <$5 per person so we could reserve a pavilion? FDPCC's website states that renting a "grove" is $35.00 plus a $20.00 application fee and $5 for some other bullshit.

So basically it's like $2 a nerfer if we get 30. I think it's well worth the money so we don't have any problems playing there and we get to reserve a space to put our shit.

I'll contact them in the next week and see if it's cool. If not, we have several other locations.

Does renting this pavilion also grant us access to a BBQ? If so, why not make it 5 bucks a person, and use the additional cash to buy charcoal, burgers, hot dogs and gallon jugs of water. It would be cheaper then bouncing for lunch and keep the group together. Yeah, a little extra work, but no real time would be lost considering commute time to and from a fast food place.

You know what? Let's just turn this into Gankfest 4/GNOMfest. Nah, I'll let you guys run it. Doesn't bother me either way though. Already paying ~$100 gas/person for this trip.

I'd be happy to pay the money for a pavilion, and a barbeque.

By the way, this war is going to debut the three-person wrecking crew that is the Three Musketeers. That is, unless Zorn makes it out to the warm-up war beforehand.

Or he doesn't make this war.

That's cool with me Chops. I can arrange that.

I think they have BBQ's on site that we could use. If not I have a portable grill. I'll look into it and let everyone know what they owe me.
