Mike, the 10 people are the holland JCI crew. I think 5 of them will be in one car, and theres a group of 3 that are riding together so it shouldnt be that bad. Most of the guys don't read the message board so I'm usually the one that relays the info to them.
Here's a list of people
Clint(myself) Scott John Mike Adam Craig Josh Joe Dustman (don't know his first name) Chris
I know for a fact that everyone is 20+ years old with the exception of Josh who I haven't met, but is atleast 18. Most of these guys have AEG's or are borrowing my spares. Everyone with the exception of Josh have played at several events (WTS sponsored.) 10 Aeg's, 9 GBB Pistols, and a couple springers.

sounds good, rain is supposed to stop tonight, so we should be all set (nicer for smoke too) if it is light drizzle, plan on still playing, cuz the woods eats up most of that. and if we have to sit it out for a while, thats ok too. Mike

Um...we are NOT the Holland Crew...we (Scott, Mike, Chris, John and Adam) are all from NUNICA. Just wanted to clarify that. Oh yeah, and Holland sucks.

Late night post! ;D I'm still planning on getting there around start (8 am). My buddy still needs a gun, so if anyone can hook us up with a rent/loaner, that would be sweet (got ammo, just no gun). I'm still looking for some nice goggles if anyone has some for sale - I've been so busy I haven't had time to look for some decent ones, I just grabbed a 20 buck mask/lens paintball thing from galyan's (rated, but hard to get my cheek on the stock of my gun to aim ). Gah, excited as hell - seeya all there

JUST TO LET EVERYONE KNOW!!!! The real skirmish doesnt start until 11 00 SHARP!!! There will be no field run through before the skirm just to make it intereesting and more realistic. ONLY the muskegon airsoft network is going to be there that early. We have to go over rules and get reaquainted with eachother since its been so long, and we need too set up the props and stuff. BUT we are not starting the real skirmish until 11!!! If you show up early, we wont let you see the field, you will have to simply sit there until it starts. later derick musk.air.net

Ok, for all you that didn't go.
You missed a SERIOUS good time. There had to be at least 40 people there, it was awesome.
I'm glad Draconis drove the 3 hours to get there, it was well worth it.
The playing field was great, the people we met were great, and for the most part there didn't seem to be too many problems with people taking shots.
It was a great time... We will definately be back out again.
-Vitalis, who is very tired, and very happy!!!
p.s. Mike, I can't wait to see the pictures!!!

I'd like to thank Derick, Mike, and Clatyon for all the work they put into running this event. This was an amazing event. The chaos of 40+ people blazing away with AEGs was as close as you can get to the real thing. BB's flying everywhere and the sound of full auto fire comming from all over. With no exceptions, this was the best time I have ever had playing. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that something like this happens again. Thanks guys!

Hey everyone!! this is derick and i am just confirming that we here all made it home ALIVE, barely, but still alive. We had soo much fun and it was a blast! I am glad i got to see everyone had a good time and really liked the field. We are really glad to see such a turnout. I was there until about 9 o clock cleaning up and stuff and recalling the chaos and confusion. We are all very tired and ready to take showers and fall asleep. I have to go to work tomorrow from 8am to 5 pm and im gonna be whooped. I am amazed by how well things went and how good of a time evryone had. The only problem was that the parking was an issue with the neighbor. After everyone left, i got a phone call from Jim, the new owner of the property. He was "upset with the organization of the vehicles", and he felt tha

hey everyone, this is derick here. I am soo soo happy that the skirm went so good!! We all made it out alive and not pissed off!!! I believe that we can speak for everyone by saying that was a legendary event! We did not expect that many people at all. I am aslo glad that everyone was good spirited and not complaining about "oh you werent calling youre hits" and none of that m40 BS!!! We are now going to put some money into sandbags and developing the field for more scenarios. We also are amazed by the attitudes of everyone and how they were all nice towards one another. We only have one problem, PARKING!!!!!!! IN ORDER FOR THERE TO BE A NEXT TIME, WE NEED to devise a plan to make the parking a little better. I was there until about 9 o clock cleaning and making sure no one forgot anything. Before I left, i recieved a phone call from the neighbor, my a-hole uncle JIM. He was "dissapointed by the parking situation" and the insane number of cars and stuff just laying around. He has just purchased the land from my grandma and he will allow us to pay as long as we keep it clean and "appropriate". MY SOLUTION TO ALL OF THIS, is to discuss this with my grandmother and we can park in there. We will almost eliminate the huge parking problem. But other than that it was the greatest skirm weve ever been to. We have wanted to see this for a long time and now it finally came true. well, i will love to see these pics and i will be watching this topic for all the responses. Thanks everyone for showing up , especially everyone from detroit who had to get up super early for the 3 to 4 hour drive just to play airsoft. !!!!!HUGE!!!!!! Thanks to mike and CLAYTON from wolverine tactical for EVERYTHING THEY DID. IF IT WERENT FOR THEM, IT MIGHT NOT HAVE HAPPENED. !!!thanks everyone for comign and hope to see you again!! later derick musk.air.net

Darn I really wanted to come to this game, however it would not of been wise. Friday night I had closed my store at 3am, this morning I had to attend a district meeting at 8am. If I had gone then I would have had to drive 3 hours out, airsoft all day, then drive 3 hours back just to get up at 6am to go to Mt. Pleasant for a district conference. Had my power not of gone out Hadoken would of prolly talked me into it anyway and I would of regretted it, but prolly not as badly as not going, sounds like you guys have had a blast. I haven’t been in a game with 40+ players sense I moved from AZ, their fun, sets a different feel to the game compared to these tiny skirmishes I’ve been hosting the last year.
