Was looking forward to a recap of the day’s events, what a day!

 

Armageddon XVIII (2017) Recap Highlights:

• Seeing Groove for the first time since my first official Nerf Out, *Armageddon 2003*. Glad to see you still rocking the masterkey/guru setup, even if it’s a tornadobow now!
• Shout out to Ice9 for doing a great job hosting and lending me a bunch of darts as well, thanks man.
• Meeting a bunch of you guys for the first time: JLego, Kane, Langley, Zax, Zorn, Ryan, Daniel, and others!
• Baghead nailing countless people with the Zing Bow, including a particular Nad Shot during Carpe. Ouch.
• Freeze Tag; shooting a teammate back in who was behind three opponents who ended up tagging them out.
• The trees in the center and the amount of shade this location provided.
• Ending the day with a classic round of 3-15.
• Special thanks to Korn3d for keeping maintenance of my Crossbow and driving us out this time!

Personal highlight of the day:  Shooting Groove’s left arsecheek for old time’s sake!

 

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful time out, you guys did an awesome job hosting and everyone was super cool. Glad to see all the familiar faces as well as all the new ones, hope this hobby keeps going strong. The meta has definitely changed with all the fly-wheel blasters running around, could barely grab any balls during Carpe Testiculum haha. The cards for choosing teams saved a lot of time, and allowed for quick scrambling between rounds, thumbs up. Looking forward to future Nerf Outs!

 

• I don't anticipate there being a problem with the war site, but if there is, this is the address of the place we will be going as a back-up:
  Ole Hammer Park
  362 N Live Oak Ave
  Glendora, CA 91741
  There is also a school next door named Cullen Elementary we might try as well if we are over in the area.

I'm glad you posted this! Not that I would have remembered the address/name of Cullen Elementary School, but I do remember what it looks like pulling into the lot and I would probably start panicking thinking I was at the wrong location. I thought we were going to be having the Nerf Out there but I do remember the last Armageddon I did attend(2013), we got moved to the park after some complications with a pedestrian or something.

Oh man, I'm thinking about coming out to this one, but I'll put myself down as a maybe for now. Just read the dart restrictions and all I have right now are the FVJ-tipped darts I've been using the last few YANOs. Is there still a community bucket that I can rummage through for leftovers? Don't think I have the time to make darts sadly.

Sadly won't be able to attend this one. Hope you guys have a blast, maybe next year or "YANO" in the future!

Well, definitely won't be making it out to this one due to a cousin's wedding tomorrow and some other life-related stuff coming up. Wish you all a great day, have fun, stay hydrated, and Nerf-On or Fuck-off.
