[Mr BadWrench]

Im gonna try for this one and consider me a +? I think I might try to drag a few friends along.

Don

[NerfMonkey]

Can I be hard instead?

[Langley]

Added to the calendar thread (thanks for posting in there!). I have a remote chance of making it, I've got a conference to go to the day before.

[KaptainKrazy]

Put me down as a maybe.

[sublimedom777]

Fupa.

I can probably make this, disregarding car issues.

Darn alternators...

I'm excited and also attending.

One question, if the war is at Highland park will it be at the same grove?

[sublimedom777]

One question, if the war is at Highland park will it be at the same grove?

Almost definitely. It's easy to access, close to the super playground, and sufficient for play. So unless there's a distinctly better grove available, Memorial grove it is.

[jwasko]

Just realized we had to make a choice:

I vote Armstrong, and the day doesn't particularly matter but Sunday may be a bit better for me.

[sublimedom777]

Alright. It's going to be at Armstrong, It's going to be the 11th, now everyone who is going to attend, make sure you say so.

[sublimedom777]

Double Post BUMP.

War is next weekend, please update your attendance and such. This could be the best POW all year, don't miss it.

[Jlego]

Put me down as a DEFINITE.
Fuck yeah this is gonna be the bestest, look at that guest list!

Can I be hard instead?

I can't speak for everyone, but I know that at least grz and I are hard too.

[jwasko]

How could I not be there?

I may have a +1, and no that's not counting JM. My +1 may also have rare/old blasters to sell, if he doesn't decide to start nerfing/keep them for himself. So break open your piggy banks and dig deep into your couch cushions if you don't want them to go to ebay.

PS: My +1 may need to borrow a blaster, but I'll make extra darts for him.

Man... I would go if someone from Ohio would be able to take me. If there are any takers, I have a large supply of nerf guns and darts. Both of which I can give to pay for gas money, or use real cash. PM me if there are any takers, please.

I'm extremely unhappy with the fact that I'm a thousand miles away and will probably be covered in chicken blood while you fuckers laugh and chase each other.

[sublimedom777]

We really miss you and Wifey. Can't wait till you can make it back up this way.

[NerfMonkey]

I'm extremely unhappy with the fact that I'm a thousand miles away and will probably be covered in period blood while you fuckers laugh and chase each other.

Seconded.

[sublimedom777]

We really miss you [...].

Additionally, There's a pre-war party the night before at a secret Sex Dwarf Safe House.

[sublimedom777]

Fuck da bump police!

Attendance is as up to date as I know, please give us heads up if you plan on coming.

[jwasko]

My +1/coworker has the following for sale (unless he chooses to keep them). All have been sitting in a garage for a while so the shells don't look great, but most/all appear to be in good working order:

1. Ripsaw - handle broken off
2. Eagle Eye - honestly didn't pay attention to it
3. Manta Ray - I'm probably buying this, so back off
4. Secret Shot 2 - It will pump and fire but I didn't take the time to check for slow leaks
...
...
...
5. and a Crossbow - with bow arms, but not the little wheels or string that go on the bow arms

Note: He knows items 3-5 are worth more than $5.
Note 2: These are for sale only to war attendees. Do NOT PM me and try to buy them unless you are attending POW! March.

We all know which of them I want to put preliminary dibs on.

Review Time:

Dom's:

+++++++++++ Super sexy guests!
+ Pre war party
+ S&M1500 very well received
+ S&M1500 working flawlessly all day and being the bane of almost everyone all day.
+ Winning the wingman round (though it means I have to keep a slingshot, haha.)
+ JLego's amazing pistol draw speed, and lethal, lip killing precision.
+ Freeze tag with some cool dudes.
+ Classic Nerf round, though it got super ghetto
+ Dart return?
+ LEGIT MANTA SAVE (Thankfully against Inci's pistol splat)
+ Hopefully adding a new player, even though it means no new crossbow/SS2 for me.

- My crossbow
- Not having enough primaries
- Pegging Sam in her neck with the singled 4b

- JMWasko



Inci HATES Armstrong, and my blasters. She wants Gabe's blasters.

[Langley]

I feel like I've been hit by a truck. Thought it goes against everything I've said about war threads, I don't think I have it in my right now to construct proper paragraphs. Here is my stream of consciousness +/- bullshit, for your amusement.


+Pretty much everything about the 'mod party' including but not limited to
++FIRE
++BOOZE
++PEOPLE CRASHING INTO THINGS
++THINGS CRASHING INTO PEOPLE
++FOAM MANNEQUINS
++CAT
++Getting to hang out with all the SDs outside of the bizzaro universe that is Apoc.
+Also just about everything about the war itself including
++S&M1500
++Wendy's
++Sex Dwarves are really fun to nerf with
++People being super awesome about hand delivering my ammo between rounds
++Wendy's
++Pretty ideal amount of down time for the kind of war it was
++The weather
++The karmic justice of dismantling the other two teams during LGLF Captains round, knowing intuitively that the other foot had to drop, and then getting totally destroyed in wingman (sorry wasko)

--Having to leave at 5
--Actually leaving at 6:30 (but I was glad we got to spend a little more time with you guys)
--GPS taking us on back roads for 40 minutes between I-80 and 287
--Me listening to the GPS even though I know better
--Having to drag my ass into work Monday on 4.5 hours of sleep and having to clean up all the bullshit on NH for an hour before I can post here.
--The welt on my gut is the size of a silver dollar and my belt is digging into it. I'm not sure if 4Bs belong in a 'classic nerf' round.

Thanks a ton to you guys for hosting a great war, letting us crash with you, and just generally being awesome hosts.

[jwasko]

++++++++Actually having a +1, and it seems he will be joining us in the future
-Not having my usual (?) war companion
+Out-of-state visitors
++++++++Partying and nerfing with the LGLF on our turf

+Sweet cell phone photography of FIRE
? Finding out the extinguisher was empty just before the FIRE

+++Wrecking the first round (Or was it two?)
+/-Promising I would get worse
-Getting worse
++++++++But still having a great time

+Good number of attendees
+++++++Especially since it gave us quite a few increasingly fun rounds of freeze tag

+Gabe's awesome shot immediately after starting wingmam
-Getting hit half a second after giving the "go" to start wingman
+/- Team Wasko/Langley failing spectacularly at wingman

+Not getting hit by Dom's Xbow all day...or the S&M1500 for that matter? (pretty sure I'd still feel it)

-Not having time to come up with an on-the-spot silly gametype involving one or more Ultimators

-Having to lend away my Nerf Classic blaster
+++++++But that resulted in sweet Arrowstorm duels with Langley
+Actually being able to dodge darts again because they weren't shot out of something with homemade or big blast internals (though Jax's Arrowstorm still shoots FAR)
Langley and I missing one another until both our turrets were empty, just sort of stopping to stare at one another, then turning and walking away.
++++Gabe and I disrupting Nerf Classic with Ultimators

++++++++++++Sweet Ultimator posing

?????? My primary shoots far/hard ??????
