One of my friends was over at my house and we were playing CTF. Then my friend, who we will call Zdawg, thought up this awesome game. We played it with 3 people but it will be fun with 5 or even more. This is mostly for when a couple friends are over.

First you think of an obstacle course indoors. An example: Touch this lamp, then touch the fridge, jump the coffee table, slide down the stairs, then touch the couch, etc. Then you will pick one person to do the course (the runner). The object, for the runner is go through and touch everything you chose beforehand, but it has to be in order. Then all of the other players are the Guards. Before the game starts you choose places where the guards stand. Ex: One stands in the corner, one stands by the piano, etc. Think creativly about where the guards are placed. The guards objective is to shoot the runner, but heres the catch: the guards can't move. They have to stay in the same spot until the runner makes it through the course or gets shot. Then all of the guards rotate to the next guard position and a new runner is chosen.

I had the guards use modded dart tag guns and stock longshots with double clips. If they shoot the runner, the runner loses. However, the runner gets a modded Maverick or modded Chainblazer or any other small hand gun of their choosing. If the runner shoots a guard the guard has to count to ten (one Mississippi, etc.), before he can start shooting again.

If the runner makes it to the end easliy, make it so that the guards only have to count to five or give the runner a stock strikefire or something. Just make it challanging. The when you get the hang of it you can make a bunch of different courses.

A lot of people have a Manta Ray sitting around somewhere. This is a simple mod that will improve its range and let you use taggers (and probably most Stefans) instead of Megas. And if you don't like this mod it is extremely simple to reverse.
The things you'll need are:
3 1/2 inch CPVC
An old mega dart
Duct tape or any other good tape
The Manta Ray (Duh)

So these are the internals of the unique Manta Ray, for this mod you don't need to open the gun but for those of you who are curious, use this picture as a referance if all of the pieces fall out of your gun.
(I hope these photos work)


First take the mega dart and cut off 2 inches from the end opposite the head. Then take the three and a half inch CPVC and tape it to the mega dart.


It should look like this...


All you have to do is jam it down the barrel...


Then either put tape on top to keep it in place better or use hot glue for a more permanent way to keep the barrel in. It should look something like this...


Just do this with all four barrels and thats it

Range test (All with stock taggers)

One side shot twice:
38 feet
41 feet
43 feet
47 feet

the other side shot twice
41 feet
41 feet
43 feet
44 feet

Average for all shots: 42.25 feet

Pretty good ranges because when it was unmodded it only went like 15 feet.
Any questions, comments, and hopefully not critisizms...
