Alright, I just thought it'd be best to get a thread up. Location can still be changed. The weather may be bad so the (13th 20th maybe?) might also be what this war is moved to.

BAFF #5

Date: Febuary 6

Time:11 a.m. is when the first round will start, try to get to the field by 10:45... Not sure about where in the park as of right now.



ATTENDANCE: ...... Please confirm if you are in or not
DEFINITE:
Hippo+1
jakejagan+2
Blue
Dubcwill
Hoth
Jman210+1
Nerfman600+1
NOT COMING:
MAYBE:
Just Some Bob
William Cann Memorial Park, Union City, California 94587


Alright, so the general plan is to get something going once a month for everyone that attended FMNO 2 and all other bay area nerfers. This will turn into a war thread once a location is chosen, but there were many ideas about this at the war, so post them and we can all choose the best location.

General directions:(Thanks Aquinas)
This is assuming that you are coming from I-880:

1. Exit 23 for Alvarado Niles Road
2. EASTBOUND on Alvarado Niles Road (I-880 NORTHBOUND = RIGHT turn, I-880 SOUTHBOUND = LEFT turn; hope it make sense)
3. RIGHT turn onto Hop Ranch Road
4. Hop Ranch Road curves left and turns into Marsh Hawk Road; parking for the park will be all along the right side of Marsh Hawk.

Also,

[nerfman600]

I will be a maybe and will be selling again also, if you saw anything you liked last time, tell me and i will bring it.

[Blue]

Alright, this war will be locked on the 6th at the current location tomorrow, so please make any objections known if you have any.

[jakejagan]

Alright, im +2 for sure, but possibly +3

[Jman210]

ill be there, and possible +1.

[jakejagan]

ill be there, and possible +1.

Jman, will you still be selling stuff?

[Jman210]

Jman, will you still be selling stuff?

Yes and no. Most likely not bring all of it, but if you saw something you were interested in ill be happy to bring it. Also if anyone is interested i got a NIB longstrike, looking for 35. Also be bringing my deploy.

[HOTH]

According to this site, the 6th looks fine. 60% chance of precipitation isn't too bad, and the hourly says it will start up around 4:00 PM anyways. Nerfing might be even fun in a tad bit of drizzle here and there. Looks like we are good to go, unless the weather man sucks, which is a possibility.

[shadow archer]

I am a possibility, though if I can make it there would any one be bringing any at2k's or 3k's in box or out of box,I am very interested in owning one, even if its modded(maybe). Also since this could be my first war would bringing 200 Stefan darts be a average amount to bring. thank you in advance.

200 stefans is plenty...

would you advise less and how much.

-shadow archer

To be safe I bring about 250 to every war, and I pick up most of the darts I shoot. You could probably get by with 150-175, depending on the blaster you using and the type of player you tend to be. If you bring less than 200, I highly recommend doing a frequent dart pickup as to not run out before the day is up.

Sorry, accidental double-post. Whoops.

We will generally go later than that. We will probably call it quits when it begins to get dark. To make questions like this easier, join the mailing list for these discussions. The link is at the bottom of the original thread.

[flipoffacliff]

Can anyone sell me At3k barrel spacers? If so PM me.

[shadow archer]

currently there is an extremely high chance that I can not make it due to transportation issues.

[nerfman600]

Is there anyway someway can supply me with 50 darts? I might be bringing one friend too.
