Like I said, I would want to play, but I have a bad knee injury that prohibits me from doing anything physical. Attached to this injury is a pending lawsuit against my former employer, where the injury took place. It's a major drag, especially since it's sumemrtime. On a positive note, though, my friends and I always get to the fronts of all of the lines at Six Flags because of my knee.

Thanks for the offer, but I will only be able to go to Apoc as a spectator, if you people will have me. Lawyers orders.

I've met badger before. It's cool with me. Sometime this week I will start a new APOC thread, just to have something on the frontpage and to get a headcount.

What are the other airports in the area?

I'm trying to find the cheapest flights for Aug. 5th - 7th. and Newark does seem to be the cheapest thus far. OMC, does the transportation and housing offer still stand? Let me check my funds and I'll be either a certain or certainly not coming by the end of the week.

The only three that are close to the Apoc/LCM location are Philly(dont know the letters for it), Newark(EWR) and Atlantic city(ACY). where ever you fly into, we should definately be able to pick you up, so just find the cheapest. I know my flight to Cali was cheaper out of philly, but i dont know about richmond/norfolk/whatever you're going out of.

If your short on cash why don't you take a bus? Buses are way more fun than planes and a lot cheaper.

This thread seems fine to me. The silly west coasters took 19 pages to organize their war; I want to see if we can do it in less.

I am fine with badger attending.

He means a new thread because the frontpage only shows the newest threads, not the most recently updated threads. That way, people can find it easily.

Follow the park's main path until you reach the circular parking lot. If we aren't there then we're in a pavilion right next to the bathroom facility that the parking lot faces.

UNCERTAIN

Sheeit, I just got back from vacation and finally had time to check the actual driving time, it looks like it's going to be over 7 hours. I really doubt I can make it; though my status is still uncertain there's probably little chance I can get there.

I was looking forward to it too.

I definitely cannot make it.

After Armageddon this year I am DRAINED financially. If I did come, I wouldn't have enough funds for supplies and textbooks this semester. So...perhaps next year! (And we're ordering our plane tickets 4 months in advance next time around, Hersh).

No problem Groover. Can't say I blame you really. And I'm all for ordering early. I'm ABSOLUTELY going next year, and I will out perform like you won't believe next time. West Coast has no idea what this One Man Clan will be bringing next year.

Yea Groove, thats blamed on me more than anyone(parents love to be pains in the ass). Hopefully, next year, my crossbow will last more than 1/2 a round.

On the grounds of Apoc CERTAIN->UNCERTAIN

I am now being required to head to a yearly family gathering in the outer banks, if things work out with my sister's softball tournament that saturday, I can get a ride back with my dad and sister so I will be home in time for apoc.

NOT COMING



I won't be able to make it. We (My family, not the entire {SF3G}) have been invited up to the Thacher's lake house on Racquet lake, in the Adirondaks for the week of the 7th. They're having a big party on the 7th, and I really don't want to miss it. That means that after a big Scenario in Mass, we'll have to get back to Nolan's, dump our shit (Paintball-related stuff), pack up our Nerf guns, change, drive to NJ. That means we should get there about 8:00 am on the 5th, which will leave us time (26 hours) to eat and sleep. However, since we're lazy and slow after a long scenario, we're more likley to:

Go to an after-party after the scenario for a couple hours. Then go to Nolans, dump our shit, sleep for probably 14 hours, which would bring us to about 10:00 pm on the 5th. Then we'd be groggy and sleepy for a couple more hours. Then we'd remember we've got to leave, pack our Nerf stuff, and drive to NJ, which'd bring us there at around 7 am on the 5th. Then we'd be able to sleep and eat more for about 3 hours.


But then we'd have to war from about 10 to 5, which means we'd get back to Nolan's at about 10:30 PM on the 6th, and then we'd have to dump our Nerf shit, and drive the ~4 hours (I think) to Raquet lake, and try to make it to Devon's party, which is late on the 7th. After and ordeal like that, I think I'd probably sleep for about 18 hours on the 8th, and then eat ~ $300 worth of food.


So, I'm not a dedicated enough Nerfer to do all that. So... Since I'm not going, nobody else from the {SF3G} will probably go, since the deal was that they'd go if I drive and they get to sleep on the way down. That leaves just the Muppets. Andrew might be able to go, since his parents will let him. But he's got to raise some money, since he can't drive yet (15 yrs.).


So, you're not going to see much of the CT/RI crew this year. And by 'not much of us', I mean there's a small chance you'll meet one of our neighbors. Look for us next year: we'll make sure (Or I'll try to convince the other guys) not to schedule any games or practices on APOC.


Have a good time, guys. I'm probably gonna be sleeping, eating, being mad at myself that I don't have the balls to go through that much sleep deprivation in 5 days, and being jealous of all you. But then I'll get to go to Devon's party, so it's all good.

See y'all next year if all goes well.




Sincereley,
Pat

Just dropping by to say I will NOT be attending. I've been pretty out of the nerf scene lately, and I really don't think I'd be able to get a ride(it's a good 6+ hour drive). Maybe next time....but if not, I'll at least try to get to the next DCNO.

I haven't seen Langley (Phil) online in a while or at the Rocky Horror Picture Show. That's where I met him and found out about NH. Anyways, I have no way of contacting him anymore. Even the site for the LGLF is gone.

Not to change the topic, but yes. Langley at RHPS. Some girl that he was dating last year liked the show, so he came with her. She then flaked out, he came a few more times by himself, but due to some personal issues that are not my place to say concerning a former cast member and him, he stopped coming to the show.

So, should I bring anything with me for the war? I already established that I will be shooting the event, not shooting any of you, though I wish I could. This will be my first war, so I have no idea what to expect or what I could bring. Maybe I'll bring some pieces from my collection.

Seems that we will have perfect weather for this event - cooler temperature, no rain, lower humidity from the front that will be passing through later in the week.

I haven't had much success mobilizing a clan that is 3/4 away on trips, so it looks like I'll be alone. And despite having a homemade, I'm probably still going to need to borrow a good modded gun, preferably one compatable with micro stefans.
