I had a blast as usual. I want to compliment the SFOD team on their work building the city up, they are doing a very nice job on that and it looks great to boot. The added buildings and bunkers that were put in place from previous games made entering the city a lot easier compared to other games. Now don't take that the wrong way, it's still a pain in the ass to get it , but it's not impossible anymore. All the usual complaints have been covered multiple times so I guess I won't repeat them. Keep up to good work SFOD.

I actually had a lot of fun yesterday. The very first game we played was probably the best because we all had energy to actually move around, and the city changed hands a few different times. Especially when BigC, Lactard, GBiscuit, and myself, flanked around and took over the city by ourselves.. The 300 game was fun as well, although I was totally shocked that the attacking team beat us so quickly. The last time I played the 300 game we tore you guys up....I have nothing else to say. But good job attackers! Downed pilot game was fun as well, we got Corey pretty quickly and then eliminating the green team was incredibly fun when Connors, the Hellfish, and I, went around the back again and cleaned the greenies out. No need to apologize for the lackluster scenario Connors, its no biggie. I am still a firm believer that no matter what elaborate scenario everyone has planned, they never, ever work out the way that they are supposed to and the best games always end up being the simple Red -vs- Blue style with one objective to obtain (Say...the City) Suggestions for next time:SFOD, maybe have a bulletin board (Or something simliar) with what games you have scheduled for the day and more importantly, what OBJECTIVES there are for each game. That way, anyone who either shows up late, or people that are out of communication with someone who knows the objectives, can be brought up to speed without having to bother you guys.I know you usually have two chrono's but if people are BS'ing when they first get there, as opposed to getting to the chrono first, once the scheduled start time comes along, and they don't have their gun chronoed....that's their tough luck. It's not really fun waiting for random carloads of people to screw around and then finally realize 40 minutes after they arrive that they actually have to test their guns' velocity. If they get confused about the gameplay....then the previously mentioned bulletin board should be able to answer their questions. Those are just a couple suggestions that may work out and make things flow smoother and quicker. PICTURES ARE UPLOADING AS I TYPE Great game, I had a really good time. 2) sometimes refs looked a bit hostile. This only happened a few times, but especially in the 300 game I would look into a building, see someone crouched with a gun, popping up now and then, with no red rag or vest, so I would shoot and they would yell back "I'm a ref, I'm a ref, stop shooting!". I don't have a problem with armed refs; heck, if I was a ref I'd want a weapon on me too, but sometimes it just confuses the situation when there is no way to tell they are refs without simply remembering faces. Thats why you are supposed to identify your target before you shoot at it.

I'm sure you all noticed, so I'll explain this 'lil quirk in the city for ya'll. The newest building, the one with the catwalk from the embassy, was supposed to have a few windows both up stairs and down, BUT alas, our saw-zaw blade broke on us about 1 am Saturday night-hence the one peice of plywood on the front facing wall that has a cut about halfway across along the top, so we kinda got screwed one that one. we'll also be adding a ladder in the lower level of that building so you don't have to go through the Embassy to get up there. I liked the fact that it had no windows, it was extremely safe up there I have an idea. There should be a building on the far right side of the city (by the police station) where those log piles are. Something far enough away from the city for an attacking force to easily take and use to safely take out snipers inside of the city. Then the rest of the team can move in through there. Right now there are just log piles and it's really hard to get in through there.

Right now there are just log piles and it's really hard to get in through there. Thats the whole point of the city. It's supposed to be hard to obtain which is why it's used as a main objective in all the games. If you put a building near the woodpiles near the swamp, all you'll have is a bunch of noobs stacking up in that building and getting lit up once they come out of the door...I have nothing else to say

I had fun, as well as my comrades, and if there was anything my conscripts did wrong aside from being new I'd gladly accept a PM so I can issue advice/punishment/executions.
CQBR, your bulletin board idea is a great idea.
I really don't have anything new to complain about, I always get shot by a hot gun within the engagement limit for it and I don't blame the person who shoots me for the most part and the hit calling was much better than normal.

I agree strongly with that bulletin board idea, it always sounds best for those who forget what's going on. And my squad usually get there pretty early so if you need someone to help with Chrono or something I'm usually ready to go pretty early.

Knief, I am speechless, great pic!
As for the 300 game goes, I was so pissed when I was hit in the brush! I had just started to creep up so I could kill everryone rambo style when I got tagged. Oh well, it was a very fun game.
