[Soothsayer]

To celebrate my birthday I'm going to be having my revival-ish war thing. I'm hoping for a sick turn out, but not expecting the world. Many of my old nerf colleagues have long since quit or fallen off the face of the earth (not that I have any room to talk).


Location: Mount Echo Park
https://plus.google....out?gl=us&hl=en
When: June 1st (saturday)
10am - 5pm ish

After the war, I'm having a sick party at my house. The party is for more of a "older crowd"
if you'd like to hit the party, I can provide a floor for you to crash on, so get at me.


What to Bring:
Water
Eye Protection (Anyone under 18 must be wearing some during rounds)
Lunch/Money
Some friends
Water<
Obstacles
A Good supply or darts
A mighty supply of extra blasters
Water<<<
Camera
GREAT MORALE!
Did I mention Water?

What not to bring:
Real weapons
Narcotics or Alcohol
Realistically painted blasters (if you do, you'll need to deck it out with some neon tape)
Singled Titans
Homemade Airguns
Plugged pump BBBB (I will be testing all, and I'm not a twit, so don't try me)
Most air blasters will be subject to being banned.


Game types will vary, we'll try to touch most bases as to get better practice. I'm mostly interested in deathmatch

and if any of you remember, I don't fuckin play zombies.



darts/stefans:
I go big or go the fuck home. I don't recommend showing up with stock darts, or modified stock darks cause me and my other nerf gurus will stomp your ass and I don't want that.

weight/design/specs:
No slingshot weights
no exposed metal/sharpness
no excessive bbs in one dart
nothing that's gonna take someone's eye down their throat
There's a lot of long range situations at mt echo, but there are 20-30ft away situations too

get the gist?



Attendees:
Soothsayer + friends (4-5 as of now)
BuffDaddy
Father Time
Coop
Xellah
Shrub
archangel24 +2
ck24 +3-4
Thaygor +1


Maybes:
Ezio Nerf
Darkdragon
Goldie
chop
Pointman9
blacklion +1
paze
Joe Espinoza


final notes: This is my first war in years, and I want it to be a casual yet competitive day.

no matter the attendance forecast, we will be showing up regardless.



As true to all of Soothsayer's/my wars, I will be giving out an MVP blaster modded by yours truly at the end of the day/when I leave.

It's marked on the calendar, at least!

[Ezio Nerf]

Add me a maybe. It's a long time from now so I don't know what's gonna be happening. And what are the rules for Stefans?

I'll add info on that, one sec

[Darkdragon]

If I can get a ride, (or have my car by then) I will come from Detroit,MI just to help you celebrate. Its about time I got active on this board as an actual nerfer. Add me as a maybe.

I don't know if you know me, but just an fyi, people who come from crazy distances, you're royalty around me. It's dedication to take a trip like that just for a war, and my crew respects that.

[Ezio Nerf]

You should probably Bump this when the time gets closer so some people don't forget. That would be nice. Thanks.

EDIT: Are plugged-pump Panthers allowed? And is there going to be like raffles, a War Trade Exchange, ect.? (I know you probably can't answer that because how far away the war is)

Never nerfed in the mid-west. Ill start looking at plane tickets.

I'm a maybe.

anything is subject to being banned. Raffles? uhhh, not really. We all usually exchange/trade during lunch, and at all of /my/ wars there is always an MVP award blaster that I mod myself.

[ck32]

Put me down as a maybe, I will have to wait till the war gets closer.

[father time]

You know I will be there. Have you posted this on the Cincinnati Nerfers FB page?
I will do my best to get everybody warmed up for you, as I plan on doing a war mid to late March.

[Pointman9]

Put me down as a maybe, I'm more than willing to make the drive from WV. It just depends on the work situation.

[chop]

As of right now put me down as a maybe, and there will also be a war the following week at rapid run

MY DUUUUUDE!
I was praying you'd still be around. I can't wait to see you and catch up man

[Langley]

Added to the 2016 Nerf War Schedule. In the future, please post in the schedule thread, and I ask that you put the city, state, and date in the title and/or subtitle of the thread. Thanks, have a good war!

[Coop]

I'm a maybe. I'd love to come down but I can't confirm until we get closer to the actual date.

Also, can I assume bows and arrows like these are acceptable under your dart rules? I usually use slingshot weights under felt pads and don't want to make new darts just for your war. So I was going to use these arrows and Elite darts out of a Stryfe just for the lawls. Also, I missed details regarding dart tip restrictions. Would you prohibit Streamline darts with hot glue tips?

I feel like a noob not using stefans, but I don't want to make darts for a single war, lol.

I'm perfectly okay with all of that. Hot glue tips are fine/what I've always used/always will.
Depending on the range of those bows, I may even give each hit from those a little more meaning. insta-kill or something.

[chop]

What about thrown melee? Have you seen the Nerf Thor hammer the fly brilliantly

[archangel24]

Put me up for a maybe +1 Depends on work scheduling.

[Soothsayer]

case by case, but I'm sure we can come up with a time and place for most foam weapons even though I'm strongly against them in blaster based modes of play.

[Paze]

Put me on maybes list for now

[Pointman9]

This is going to be on June 1st, right?

[blacklion]

I'll be in Cincinnati for the summer so add me to the list (+1 maybe). Never been on a nerf war so I'll be easy prey... hahaha Should be fun to meet some folks and hopefully hang out during the rest of the summer. Until then!

[Xellah]

I'm a strong maybe assuming Coop is going.

If it means anything, I'm against melee at wars with outdoor primaries. The hammer tossing at the CU wars was pretty funny though.

I personally think using melee weapons anywhere is a fucking joke for kids who need to stick to larping with their WoW buddies, but if they want to get lit up with 100ft shot primaries, be my guest.
