Let's hear it, guys. How did this one run? Which games worked the best? Did you like the respawn points during the island/mortar games? How'd the sniper hunt go for you?

Wow that was quick. You must have just gotten home. My comments will follow as soon as I get my stuff together. Short end of it, it was another good rec game.

I had a good time today, I'm very glad it was less wet than last time. My favorite game was on the very first area. Spawns that were on the island game were off in my opinion, not sure how you can really change them though.
Sniper hunt was alright, but the issue was not the snipers. I don't like that last area, to thick and the number of vines on the ground makes it a bitch of a time to walk through. I'll be back for the next one.

I really enjoyed the gameplay today, there was really no downtime and everything ran very smoothly. I liked the field a lot, especially the Island one, which brought back some memories of the embassy for me at Futureball, except this time with a lot more diverse land.
The bugs weren't really as bad as I thought they were going to be, just needed some spray and I was good. Not really anything else, I would love to attend any upcoming games here.
Nice job guys!

The field looks great but I did not play that much. Today still was fun and I will attend to future games. Good job guys.

I didn't get the chance to play at all considering my gun was down the whole time. Met some cool people though. I heard it was great though. I'll definitely have to actually play there sometime.....

I definately give this game a 10/10. Little to no downtime, great guys, little to no mis-haps of people not calling their hits, and just an overall great game with great friends.
A+ Job guys, I hope that you do another one real soon.

I've been very surprised and very pleased with the complete lack of cheating complaints. I was only confronted with one today, and none last game. I'm really happy about the honesty of the crowd that comes out to these games, and I hope it keeps up.
Every player on the field today did more to keep the games good than M.S.-Arc or I could have.

Honestly.. I only had one, and it was a guy hiding behind the tree when it was attack & defend on the castle with one respawn and I had the M700. I mean, I watched it dent in his pants and he just sort of shrugged it off, but then I yelled across the field not to be that guy, and he accepted his out.
Other than that, it definately was a great day of trigger time and good people.
EDIT: Did anyone get pictures of it? I was going to take some video, but I forgot and then I got a little into the whole parts where we were doing the sniper vs all game (Which btw... The Snipers totally pwned that one). But yeah,
Pictures pl0x?

This game was a ton of fun. Semi-Auto only games are AWESOME (especially to a POR). The field was just the right size. No real cheating to speak of. Good time had by all =)

To answer mosin's question, yes my buddy did take a bunch of pictures. I will put them on my photobucket. Also this guy Danny i think took a bunch of pictures with his digicam, so his should be up soon as well. Also there should be some video up soon as well cuz my buddy used a gun cam for a bit of todays games.

Great rec game, good turn out, well organized. Loved the semi auto only games which required more skill less spray and pray. Only minor glitch was the respawns during the fight for the island were too close together to the point it was close to spawn camping. Was it my emagination or were there a lot more snipers than usual on this op because I never got tagged with more .25 amd .3 BB's in my life. I got taken out by I think livonia at least 5 times once while just talking with Knief who was observing . The terrain around the island is great for snipers with tall grass next to open area. Overall a great time and kudos to the guy who volunteered to go into the fetid swamp water around the island under the bridge ( that takes guts or a total disregard for personal hygiene )

Overall very good time. The attack/defend games in the island were a lil rough w/ the team trying to get back to the island. Our respawn was out in the open and couldn't seem to move much. Ehhh, not a biggy. The only issue I and a couple others had was in the sniper hunt. We took out a spotter, about 5 min. later the (dead)spotter and someone else were firing on us. When we returned fire, they just stood there and laughed about it. Not positive on this, but we think they may have been hiding their sniper. They were gone in a couple of minutes, not a huge deal, just not cool at all. I won't call anyone out, just c'mon, be more mature.
Overall, I had a really good time out here for my first time. I loved the mortar/C4 idea in the different games, that was really cool. Can't wait to see you guys again on the field!!!

merkava,
The funny thing about all of the snipers that were there is that most of them are close friends on and off the field. Livonia, Oakey, Mosin, and Embed with his sr-25 have all played together for quite a while, and I'm sure they showed up in force specifically because the others were showing up.
As for the respawns in the mortar/island game, I was surprised with how the green team played that. You all kept trying to move directly across the open field directly into the snipers. I never once saw you come around through the concrete field under cover and pull up behind the tan team. I was thinking that after first contact, people sort of forgot that all three fields were in play.
