Ok, please add my goofy butt to this growing list of misfits, but I did not see a category of "Turdey"?

I will not bring any mobsticles, however for the shirtless ban. Might I suggest to my local "exotic adult entertainers", they contribute to this dilemma by donating their used, nipple pasties the next time I see them?

I am sure they have plenty. See, a simple solution for any problem!

Haha Nipple Pasties would make for very interesting nerf footage I'm sure as all the youtube chumps wonder what is anatomically wrong about midwest nerfers.

Any chance your attendance can drag Ambience or some of the other FIF2 participants along?

[Ryan201821]

BRING SLUG DARTS! The U3 bucket is horribly depleted, and I'm not making another dart until I get the pink foam, which won't happen in time.

This is 4srs. We won't have a dart stash for everyone. You'll have to make your own darts. We won't get the pink foam in time, or won't have enough time to build up a proper stash.

So, yeah, boned. Zorn you should add this to the OP in big letters.

[cheerios]

Anyone spray painting the back of their darts orange or yellow? I want to know what colors have been taken. If orange hasn't been taken I call dibs.

I'm pressing on Ambience to become a "1" on the list, as for the others, I will spread the word... not to miss this one!

We're driving down with at least 3 (more likely 4) people, and need a place to crash the night before. Anyone have crash space available?

I should probably be able to host you guys. The east coast guys are probably bailing, and if they do decide to come, they can crash with Zeke or Kelvin, or just giant sausagefest. Any of the above are cool.

Beaver, who all is going? Message me here or on facebook or something. I think i'd be all for a road trip.

I'm now a Nipple.

I'm not going to attend. You all should know by now.

Awww, that's too bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

P.S. The Maximizer will not be making it back to this war. I guess it will have to wait until spring.

P.P.S. LOVIN' DA SIG, LOUIE, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

I might be attending. Because my status is so important to the rest of you, you can expect this post to be updated as more recent bulletins warrant.

[Demon Lord]

Less than one week out till the war and I just want to say that I will have stuff to sell. Some blasters but also for those in the melee business (mostly the WI and IN guys) I will have a TON of melee weapons that I have no need for and would like to get rid of.
This is what I have for sale melee-wise (note, these are NOT your standard PVC boffers, these are rattan core boffers that will hold up longer than PVC will):
- 2 6 foot staffs $25 each
- 2 Axes $25 each
- Several swords of various sizes - $15 to $25 each
- A Korean style Katana - $30

A blaster list and prices will be up in the next day or two.

[Buffdaddy]

Just got around to making lots of darts, so I'm officially set - but I probably won't have a guest, as some family issues came up on that end.

I think I have 2 NIB Big Salvos, if anyone is interested.

[Demon Lord]

Speaking of issues popping up at the last minute, my car suspension decided to rust out and fall apart on me so while I may show up Saturday (I'm going to do my best) it won't be until much later, if at all.

Just PARKOUR to the war...

[Ryan201821]

READ THIS SHIT MOTHERFUCKERS. EVEN IF YOU THINK YOU KNOW.

GAMETYPE RULES:

These will be explained in detail at the war, before each round. If you're unfamiliar with what games we play, you should read this. We're also going to be trying a few new gametypes/variants. So, if you're coming, read this. We will also try picking teams by a new method, to hopefully keep downtime to a minum.

Meatgrinder:

Teams: 2 or more

Setup: Each team needs a spawn point.

Respawn: Unlimited, 15 seconds after you've reached spawn.

Objectives: No explicit objectives, just have fun.

Variants: Same rules, except when you are "hit", you switch to the other team, and respawn at their designated spawn. One team will be tape, the other, no tape; everyone will be provided tape at the begining of the round. When you switch teams, either remove or add your flagging tape to your blaster, or a visible part of your body, to designate what team you're on. The game is over when the other team is eliminated.

Carpe Testiculum:

Teams: 2 or more.

Setup: Each team has one base, which is designated by a bucket. Each bucket has "x" number of balls in it. Each team will also have a spawn, 30-50 yards behind their bucket. "x" is dependent on the number of people playing, and the number of teams. "x" should also be > # of people playing.

Respawn: Touch only, respawn. I'm trying something slightly different. We've had problems with people yelling "IN", when they have clearly not counted to 15 seconds. Your respawn will be much further back from your base, causing you to either run or walk back to your spawn. All you need to do is touch the respawn to re-join play.

Objectives: Take balls from other opponent's buckets, and return them to your bucket. Team with the greatest number of balls in their bucket after the round is over, wins. Balls not in buckets, or in a players hands, will not count towards the final score.

Special Rules: Only one ball may be carried at a time. If a player is hit while carrying a ball, they must drop it where they were hit.

Variants: Carpe/powerball - The main difference here, is each team will get three buckets, assigned different point values. One bucket will be closer to your spawn, only worth 1 point, and the other two, which are further forward (20ish feet), are worth 3 point for every ball. You have a choice whether to store your balls in the closer bucket near your spawn (but take less points), or at the further buckets (more points, though easier for teams to steal). We will most likely do this at the war, with four teams. Another difference will be the # of balls. Each team will get 2-3 times as many balls as teammates. You will be able to carry more than one ball at once, as well. Balls will start in between your three buckets at the begining of the round, instead of in your buckets. If you're shot with ball(s), you must drop them. Balls that are not in buckets when time is called, will not count.

Defend the Core:

Teams: 2

Setup: Two cores, w/ one respawn for each team.

Respawn: Touch only, Unliminted spawn. Each respawn will be located 30-50 yards behind each core.

Objectives: Score as many darts/balls/missiles/arrows, etc. in the other team's core as possible. Team with most points after time is called, wins. Darts are worth 1 point each, followed by, 5 points for balls/missiles/arrows, and 10 points for Titan missiles or equivalent.

Special Rules: None

VIP:

Teams: 2

Setup: One large circuit, marked by cones, where the VIP will be escorted. The VIP will have body armor, a shield, and a sword (all provided). All of these will count as shields.

Respawn: Defending team will respawn (unlimited) at a designated locations, outside of the circuit, touch only. There will be four different spawns defenders can respawn at. Attacking team will respawn in the middle of the circuit (at a designated spawn, unlimited), but must count for 15 seconds AFTER he's reached the spawn, before entering back in the game. VIP will respawn for 20 seconds, and drop to one knee after he's been shot, wherever he is on the circuit.

Objectives: Shoot the VIP as many times as possible before he's completed "x" number of laps. After "x" number of laps have been completed, the VIP announces how many times he was hit, and the teams switch sides. The team who had less hits on their VIP (while defending), wins.

Special Rules: VIP cannot run, must walk. One foot must be on the ground at all times.

Variants: Deathmatch style - Each team has one VIP, and a respawn. After "x" amount of minutes, each VIP announces how many times they were hit. The team's VIP with less hits on him, wins.

================================

We may try others at the war, if we have extra time.

Other important news. We'll have a bunch of loaners available for the war, so don't worry if your blaster sucks dick or says "nerf" on the side. We'll also have hopper clips to loan out and sell, as well as wyes.

We also have new mobstacles. If you're feeling generous, we'll be at the location at 9:30 to start setting up mobstacles. If you'd like to help, it would be greatly appreciated.

Saturday's forecast looks decent. 30% chance of rain, but it will be cool, with a high of 59 degrees. Please make sure you dress appropriately. It's at least better than last year's Chanos.

I like the rules, especially the touch respawns. Are we using enormous cores for DTC, or tiny ones?

We have 4 x 4' mobstacles this time. So we could use those.

Since 10' segments - 4' - 4' = losta 2' segments, Kane said he might make smaller 2 x 2' cores on Friday. We could even do multiple cores per team, or multi-team DTC, or even multi-core mult-team DTC! Oh man!

Its not a matter of getting to the war, its a matter of Saturday is the only day I'll be able to fix my car. I'll do my damnest to make it to the war.

[Noodleownz]

I'm looking to a buy a stock triple shot SHELL for dirt cheap. If you have one, please pm me and bring it to the war.

[Buffdaddy]

Not the most significant update, but for anyone interested in showing up to Hell Before Halloween 4, I do have the official Canadian Nerfers business cards.

Have everything but the +bow fixed; so I'm overall good to go.

[debandgeek12]

I am going to a wedding this weekend, and because my mother doesn't tell me about things in advance, I cannot go.

[Range Eclipse]

If anyone has a Arrowstorm, Splitfire, or Powerclip they don't want i'll buy it at the war.

Also planning to sell/tradeing my Supermaxx 750 and Doomsayer, PM me if you are interested.

[Ambience 327]

Barring any last-minute, unforseen circumstances, I will be an eligible target for this war.


Is Lake Ellyn confirmed for the location yet? Still says "tentative" on the first page.
