Due to unforseen circumstances I will not be hosting Spring SENO. I have relinquished my duties to ASON. Also...


SENO IS NOW ON APRIL 10

Looks like I can't come. Have a good time.

[rork]

Damn. Also, new location, in Nantahala. Should be a bit closer for our FL/GA guests. But pack a lunch. I will be stopping for 15 minutes or so, and there are no fast food places within a half-hour. It's waaay on back in the woods. For any parents who don't want to sit around all afternoon, or any outdoorsy nerfers who might want to make a weekend of it, the area offers excellent trout fishing, hiking, and rafting opportunities.

[Cmdrmack]

I haven't been to a proper war in forever. Mark me down as a maybe. We'll see how scheduling develops.

For some reason, the theme from "Deliverance" keeps running through my mind...
But Chicken and I are looking forward to it.

[rork]

Well, you will get to shoot some dudes. But we'll try to keep the unnatural acts to an absolute minimum.

[soccerbeast003]

What time does it start?

[rork]

We'll be starting at 11. Be there a few minutes early if possible, or if you don't know the basic rules.

[rork]

A'ight, bitches. Time to get this ball rolling. Be there by 11. BRING A LUNCH. There are no nearby places to eat. A sandwich will be necessary. There will be water fountains, to the best of my knowledge, but bring agua, just in case. The schedule is gonna be pretty tight on this thing, and I will have a tentative round schedule up soon. Anybody who is gonna drop out, let me know now. Same for those of you who are coming for sure.

Due to a sudden money-draining event, I am unhappy to say my WINCO roadtrip will not get to happen. I am sorry rork, I WILL be at the next one....fuck this economy! Have fun all, and I will see you guys this summer for sure.--Rogue.

[rork]

Poverty sucks. I may come down there in June though. So I WILL be shooting you soon

[umpshaplapa]

Yeah, looks like my ride isn't working out either. Unless I can find something I can't go.

[zipx]

Hey, I finalized my ride up there so im set! On an unrelated note,
I have had a week from HELL, and have not had time to make darts, soooo is there anyway I could maybe rent 100-150 darts from somebody for the day? sorry.

[rork]

Umpa: have you talked to Chicken and Co.?

Poptart: I will be renting access to our Big-Ass Dart Cask for 10 bucks.

Come on! This sucks!

Although, I am still greatly looking forward to this. I haven't Nerfed since January and I'm itchin' to get out there again. My dad's armed with his new longshot and I finally have a good pistol holster and several batches of slug darts.

Bring it ON!

Umpa: My dad messaged you; we can give you a ride.

[soccerbeast003]

So you want us to tell you for sure if we are coming? I'm definitely coming, my dad's not coming now, but my friend is 99% sure he's coming. I can't wait!

[The Old Guy]

Rork, if you get a chance, email me your cell #, just in case. I'll be bringing Chicken, Poptart and Umpa with me.
Thanks.

[umpshaplapa]

Woot! Thanks Old Guy. Time to make darts in record time since I now am going to be using BBs. Hopefully these won't be like "little metal bees" haha.
I also made a bootleg SNAP in the past week.

I'll be bring a few extra guns if anyone want's to use them.

[rork]

Looks nice, Umpa! If some of the vets could bring a couple of extra guns, that'd be super, as there will be a few newbies on the field, and I only have so many "beginner friendly" guns

[umpshaplapa]

Once again I'm going to have to ask this. Does anyone have a pistol I could use? Just today, mine stopped catching.

[rork]

I have not had ANY time to mod, and I too find myself low on pistols, what with the newbies in attendance. I suggest we simply forego any pistol rounds. That being the case, bring a good primary and a solid backup.

ALSO: In the past 2 days, my crew has produced nearly 1500 slug darts. Procrastination ftw!

Haha, I didn't want to be the first to recap.

Pros:
-Met a lot of people and made friends
-Getting a lot of kills
-Winning FFA
-Got some new ideas on things
-Trying to name Poptart Toaster Strudel

Cons:
-Almost every gun broke on me
-It raining

-Ending early

Overall, this was a great war experience for me. Thanks to Rork for hosting it.

Edit: Adding Pictures, my mom took them, so I'm in them, but I picked the ones that have multiple people in it.

Edited by soccerbeast003, 15 May 2010 - 09:47 PM.

[umpshaplapa]

Pros:
SoccerBeast and his guest.
Soccer's guns, minus the breaking parts.
None of my guns breaking.
Warm enough for 1500s!
The rounds we got to play.
Getting a new project from Soccer. I'm gonna fix that thing up like new.
Nerfin'
ANOTHER PRO-The slaughter house. You better keep that name.
Cons:
Rain...duh.
Having to leave early.
Soccer's guns breaking on him.
Getting simultaneously point-blanked by a BBBB and a Snap, both leaving welts within 1/2" of each other.
That's 'bout it.

I had fun.

[flyingchicken]

I was so bummed out because of the rain and leaving early, but in the short time we played, we had loads o' fun.

Highlights
-Soccerbeast is one of those kinds of people who prepare for wars forever, show up, and kick ass. It was great meeting him and his friend Josh.
-Getting some good rounds in
-Soccerbeast and my dad facing off as the final two of FFA
-Poptart's extremely ghetto guns. I am inspired.
-My BBB acting up... it's weird. Sometimes it has this problem where everything functions normally, but the dart won't leave the barrel. UGH
-Rork generously offering me darts and a big blast to use. I was eccentric. I was finally able to use the gun that I loathed so much! But to me, it was too unwieldy.
-Then, Ben let me use his snap. It was amazing. With the 4-round hopper clip, I was playing so well. The gun itself is extremely comfortable, and however much I dislike the hopper clip (because it's kind of unfair), I need to order one. Thanks so much guys!
-Nick's guns. They never break. Seriously. Have fun with that Big blast.
-Leslie owning with her big blast
-Poptart and I making a break for it, running between two teams on either side.
-All the newbies that were there. They were so... entertaining.
-Deciding that my holstered NF just got in the way. It did.
-My dad breaking his back up, which he preferred to his main primary. ~Your fault, not mine~
-Pheylan showing up. 1. He's freakin tall. 2. Once I get my SNAP, we'll own.
-Great conversations and attitude. Even with the rain, there was still a good vibe going around.
-Grinning creepily at people until they smiled.
-Only one with long socks.
-I feel kinda sorry for those kids that came from Tennessee. I know they must be disappointed that their first war got rained out.
-I vote Rork/Ben as permanent team captains

Imageshack is being weird, so the few photos we have won't show up.
