As I am now ambulatory and able to resume my existence as a biped, I must take this opportunity to express how goddamned PISSED OFF I am at myself for getting hurt and having to be in bed for this war. I missed a kickass time and I will forever rue the porcelain gods for making my weekend a living hell. (Don't ask, although you probably heard if you were there)

As for our guests from Hasbro, I second the notion that it's pretty cool that they decided to stop by, treat us to some second-rate pizza and tell us that they are interested in what it is we do. I wouldn't go all crazy about mainstream Nerf just yet, but it's definitely a positive that our efforts as modders, individuals, and clans are being noticed by the folks who make the guns. I wasn't there, so I don't know a great deal about the legalese that was present in the discussion, but the sentiments that I get from talking to Langley suggest that the Hasbro reps weren't exactly handing out cease-and-desists to everyone present (which is better than I would have previously thought, much much better).

Anyway, this is a chain of events that really psyches me up for the future. I'm just pissed off I wasn't there, you lucky bastards who were. Hope you enjoyed your pizza.

Anyone notice that we didn't have a clan war, even though though it would have been almost exactly even teams with talio and hersh?

Wow, I think we should definetly give them some invites to all upcoming wars to see exactly what we are doing to the guns and why (not that they cant see the mods section lol) so's that they can save us moding time on future guns ;-) *winkey* I still want to see pics of THEM, the SHIRTS they gave you and the GUNS they gave you, cuase I'm a skeptic, the only people here who I trust are Ryan Kevin and Vaccarina!

I wouldn't count on anyone's attendance at any wars. At least that is what were told, so I'm not going to point out on any forum that they should come. If they want to attend a war and their boss ok's it, then they will show up; don't count on that happening often.

Well, there's no harm in inviting them. We're not counting on much of anything. We're just going out of our way.

God damn. Tell them to come out to a YANO sometime if they want to see a REAL war, heh.

So ironic. They said they wanted to go out there instead but Hasbro wouldnt spring for an airline ticket. Instead they got to drive to Jersey.

I am so pissed right now. When I told my mom this happened she said "What time did the war end?" I said "The war ended around3-4" then the thing that pissed me off the most came "If I had known it would end at that time I would have taken you" 0XXXXXXXX|========>

joeyaglr444, Splitlip made a mistake, this gives you no rights to necro this topic. On second thought I shouldn't even be doing this.
