I know some people were interested in buying white foam because they realized how easy it is to find in the grass. If you did end up getting some, please DO NOT use black hot glue tips for your darts. I just got 4 lbs. in the mail and plan to make my darts with it. This is for identification, so if you have white foam and black tips, that would ruin the point of me being the only one with this color combo.

If you already have this color combo and I didn't see it at the last war or you didn't go to the last war, please send me a PM to alert me.

If you want darts, you will want to tell me soon... I *do* need heads up on this...

EDIT: Coop, I doubt that will be an issue since you were the only one with white foam at the last wars...

I know, but a few people were talking about buying white foam. I don't know if any were successful, but I don't want to come with a bunch of darts that look exactly like another person's darts. lol.

Coop i don't think it matters what color your hot glue is...you can never see your darts when we go out to do a sweep anyway. Where did you get your colored hot glue i was out looking for some yesterday and couldn't find any.

I can find them every once in a while, lol.

I got a total of 6 lbs (5 black, 1 glow in the dark) for a bit under $40 shipped at adhesive-solutions.net. Fast processing time and cheap 2-3 shipping. I'd recommend them. It's the same price as the clear stuff from Home Depot plus shipping.

This should be a good war... I wonder if NerfMonkey will actually show up to any C-bus wars.

I don't think so. Not with Pittsburgh only an hour away. Gas costs money.

Just in case anyone was dying to know, I probably will not be able to make this one. I'm off to college and have no car or modding supplies, and my BBBB's trigger is still broken from the last war. I was planning on making an Uber NF in the last couple weeks of summer, but that never happened.

Yall have fun though.

[Lynx]

NOOOO MINSC!

Oh well, Coop, I found my old and abused original 2k pump and will use that one. So we won't need a pistol duel over it (which I would win (Revolver/1st gen)).

So, no one wants stefans... Grrrrreaaaat... Only 5 cents a piece. A buck for 20. I will have them in 20 packs at the war. You know, 2 inch overweighted darts great for pistols and primaries...

Edit: Oh, I see how it is... now we MUST duel.

But I'm still in need of a 2K pump. Please send me a message if you have one that you can bring to the war.

I've got afew questions about the park we are using, considering I've never attended a war at this park or ever been to it. Are the pictures in the thread that lynx posted, that appear to be alot of wooden jungle gym stuff, the park? Also if it is not that park I just described what kind of cover is there? Also I understand you guys in the columbus area have a problem with people camping, so I have so ideas that I'll share at the war to help you guys fix that.

Looks like I'll have around a 3 hour drive. If any cinci guys are up for carpooling that would be awesome.

Le sigh. It's the one at the bottom of the page. Entitled Fall Whetstone War. Its a fall war at whetstone park.


However, I will be hosting a December 19th war at the wooden fort/castle place mentioned. It is called Wycliffe Progressive School and last December, we had a pretty awesome war there. Plenty of ice/snow, a smaller area and poor dart/barrel seals makes Nerfing hella more fun.

I don't think it's a camping problem, I think everyone was moving a good amount and I didn't see anyone who was holding a specific area for too long. It's just the average engagement range was like 80-100', so our movements are a bit more spread out.

I'm just happy to have multiple functioning primaries for once. Unfortunately my 2k is retired and eventually going in my xbow. Also DES and I are def's unless something comes up. Hopefully it doesn't turn into a pas and bbbb fight and we bring it closer.

[Coop]

Alright, we're one week away. Let's get some of these maybes set.

The weather forecast says "few showers" so hopefully that will change by Saturday... but game on rain or shine!

BLATANT ADVERTISEMENT: 1.75 to 2 inch high quality, dense(ish) darts for .05 a piece! ($1=20)


Ahem... Anyways...

I definitely have 2, maybe 3 guests. A loaner primary and pistol are necessary.

I wouldn't worry about the weather. If you don't like the weather in Columbus, wait 5 minutes, it'll change.


PV: Are you dissing pistol use? My babies and I will sue shoot your ass!

I am not dissing all pistols...just mine, but i wouldn't be dissing them if i knew what other springs i can put into my bbb other that the [k26].

I can loan a primary and a pistol. The pistol will suck, and the primary will be a PAS or a BBBB (depending on my mood). I cannot loan darts though.

I know it will be too late to actually use in the war, but I can bring a [k26] spring or two if you'd like to buy them for the next war. They're like 12" long, so you can use a single spring for two blasters (well, for your NFs).

[Lynx]

Thank you very much Coop. As long as the primary shoots farther than a pistol I'm loaning them, they should be happy. I have over 300 darts from last war (I over made darts).

That would be awesome and maybe if we get there early enough than i will throw them into the bbbs and be ready to go.

I'll be there with +2 for sure, maybe 1 or two more.

I'm looking for a few things to trade for or buy if anyone has them:

PAS pump grip (The two brown pieces that prime it)
Nightfinders of most sorts (Cruddy paint jobs, maybe minimized)
Springs (LS, Recon, BBB prefered, but I'll buy most longer primary springs)

I have a few things for sale/trade:
NIB Lanard Shot Gun (the one with 4 rotating barrels)
NIB Pistol Splat (Black/Silver)
Arctic Blast Super Soaker, it has a bladder, I think. Looking for $5. It was clearance at target, but I don't like pumping

I just returned your PM about the PAS grip, I have an extra for you. I also have a minimized first gen. NF with a sloppy 17/32 barrel I could pretty much give you (everything is sloppy, you will want to redo it all). I have two Longshot springs -one black on silver-, but I'm not sure if I'm going to use them in the blaster I'm working on. I'll let you know on Friday night.

I'm interested in your black/silver Pistol Splat. We can work something out in PMs or at the war, I don't care which.

Sorry guys won't be able to make it this weekend. I hope to see all you guys on halloween.

[Lynx]

I got to finish making about 40 stefans tonight, make a plunger tube transplant in my ttg's (thanks bpso86), and glue together a 2k.

I will have 2 guests nerfing and TT is also coming. I'm almost ready for this.
