Ballzooka Turret Problem

11 February 2009 - 03:22 AM

My Ballzooka's barrels occasionally fail to rotate. It seems like the mechanism is slipping, but it looks fine internally. Is this a common issue for Ballzookas?

Apparently it's not.

Orange County (ca) Weekly Nerf Skirmishes

03 January 2009 - 02:04 PM

How: PM me with your email and I will keep you up to date.
What: Faux, foam combat with a group of about 10 or more players.
When: Almost every week.
Where: Cypress College, Oxford Academy, and other places around Orange County.
Why: We like fun.

You should come if:
  • You like fun (assaulting people with foam is fun)
  • You like to try out odd scenarios
  • You have lots of money and are generous
You shouldn't come if:
  • You don't like fun
  • You don't like melee weapons and cannot handle having your darts deflected back at you
  • A lack of schedule and structure would inhibit your enjoyment of nerfing
  • You need more than 3 hours notice.
Typical Scenarios:
  • Jenga-Strike (Team)
    Counter-Strike style bombing mission with Jenga blocks and a timer setup as the bomb. To diffuse the bomb you must disassemble the Jenga blocks by 5 pieces. It's surprisingly difficult while under fire.
  • Rubik's-Strike (Team)
    Counter-Strike style bombing mission with Jenga blocks and a timer setup as the bomb. To diffuse the bomb you must disassemble the Jenga blocks by 5 pieces. It's surprisingly difficult while under fire.
  • Deathmatch: Kill 'em All! (Individual or Team)
    The winner is the first person to tag every other player at least once. Infinite respawn.
  • King of the Hill/Kill (Individual or Team)
    The person at the top of the hill is the king; while you're the king, you get a point for every person you shoot. The first to X points wins. Infinite respawn.
  • Witch Doctor (Team)
    Just like the rules are from the official Dart Tag set, except:
    1. No player conversions.
    2. You have to say "Oo-ee, oo-ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla, bing-bang" to bring someone back.
  • Elimination: Timed (Individual or Team)
    If you don't get kills by regular intervals you're out.
  • Elimination: Vampires (Individual or Team)
    For every person you eliminate from the game, you gain an additional "life."
  • Elimination: Zombies* (Individual or Team)
    If you get eliminated, you become a zombie (we have over-sized foam hands for the zombies). When you're a zombie, you can't use a gun, you respawn infinitely, and must tag living players with your hands (foam in our case). If you manage to tag a player, you come back to life and the player you tagged becomes a zombie. The last living player wins.
*We also play with a variant rule that as a zombie, you cannot attack the last person to shoot you. This prevents pestering.

Past scenarios:
  • Battle Royale
  • Ragnarok
  • Pearl Harbor
  • Santa's Crusade Against the Holidays
