The normal whistle is already on the verge of causing hearing damage.... as to why I said cut it the fuck out, and if you pull out multiple whistles, Farmington won't be seeing a fucking dollar of my money. I thought that hunter let you in for free?

For a game because of all the time I spent making those CDs.

If people are really concerned about "hearing damage" from the whistle as one individual is, please, let us know because I'm dumbfounded, but shout out, or whisper rather if you feel we are putting your ears at risk when we try to get you guys your money's worth.

I tell you what, stapo. You can walk around the room and ask everybody to be quiet for me every time we need to brief before a game. If you do that, and if people stay quiet the whole way through, I'll put the whistle away during briefings. But I tell you this, I'm done shouting at the top of my lungs. I lose my voice every weekend we do these, and hurt like hell for the next couple of days.
I don't surprise people with the whistle. I don't come up behind people and blow it right next to their heads unsuspectingly. I stand up on a chair, look around, tap the people closest to me so they know to cover their ears, cover my own, and then blow. If you're paying attention at all, you've got plenty of time to put your fingers in your ears. And don't tell me that doesn't work. The whistle is closer to my ears than anybody else's and plugging my ears brings the whistle down to about the volume of a microwave alarm.

I'll go ahead and do that then. If people aren't going to listen, they shouldn't be there in the first place.

Yeah I don't want to sound like an ass, but the only people who are complaining about the whistle are the ones who are clearly not paying attention during briefings. If you guys would simply pay attention you'd know when to cover your ears. When Knief stands up on a chair and tries to get your attention, cover your ears. You'll be fine.
In the end we only have the whistle because people won't shut up during briefings, and then we get people running around mid-game saying "what game type are we playing? Wheres our respawn? What team am I on?" and shit like that.

I would like to complain about the whistle and the inappropriate 'cease fire' which as handle very poorly. I think this was my last hellfish game, I wasn't very impressed either at any of the games so far. Me and the group that said fuck it went downstairs and we had a great time until hellfish came downstair and started telling us how to run shit. We were all doing just fine until that happened. My 2 cents...

To be honest seven we received a ton of complaints specifically about you from a lot of guys (outside of our team) and our team was this close to banning you for your unsportsmanlike conduct and blatant violation of rules.
Anyways, thank you for not showing up to any more hellfish games. I have a feeling our gameplay will go much smoother without you. Anyone else agree?
Also if you guys can't handle a whistle then yeah you really shouldn't go to our games. Just keep in mind that the events sell out in less than a week with more jumping in on the waiting list.
Honestly though we have had nothing but good comments on how our games have run with little to no downtime. We have had great comments on how well we fixed the basement to make it playable and run competitions. We have had great comments on how we fixed the FF issue. All these good things and you doushebags complain about a damn whistle? Really? A whistle? Anyone else think that is ridiculous?
Those who have been to our games and had a good time please sound off. Don't let these whiners take center stage and bitch about a damn whistle.

The whistle is okay, but was it really necessary to take the biggest fucking breath then blow into it as hard as you possibly could? I have nothing else to say. I mean, I saw your face turn red a couple of times haha. With the downtime, people get fucking bored and decide to socialize. They aren't gonna fucking stare at knief the entire time. Maybe a soft blow of the whistle would get attention instead of a loudass screech that makes people complain and talk more about how loud the whistle was.
Just something to consider next time.

One suggestion, not to allow the full auto weapons. Like the Mac11's, TMP's, F.A. glocks ect. I had and saw a few occasions that they caused problems. As for the whistles blow them more and louder until people shut the fuck up. It didn't bother me because I listened and plugged my ears when Knief blew it. As far as certain people not coming back, oh well I'm sure you won't be missed.
On a positive note I had a good time, otherwise I wouldn't have driven 3 or so hours to get there. Hellfish are upstanding people and run some good games. I had some problems with some people and the Hellfish were there to help me out with them. Thanks guys and you know I'll be back.
Silent Death - I'm sure Knief got fucking sick of talking over people, and when I was there on Sunday he had to blow it multiple times in a row because nobody would shut up. I think blowing it as hard as he can is acceptable and if there is someone that just wont shut up on multiple occasions then he should just put it up to the persons fucking ear and blow directly into it. I'm sure that person would get the point or he should GTFO (this is def. not directed at you and not being an ass to you, just saying in general to stupid people)

It's like taking a brain surgeon and hitting him in the hand with a hammer multiple times a day once or twice a month. It's not the whistle I have a problem with, it's Knief blowing it as loud as he fucking can for as long as he can. It's completely ridiculous and completely not needed.

I am glad you decided to not come back, in every experience I had with you, YOU SUCKED! your arrogant and don't listen to anyone and I saw more then once you not calling your hits. About the whistle, it sucks but if that is what is needed then use it, but I think silent death is right, you dont have to blow it for 10 seconds strait, maybe a second or two.

I agree that the whistle is needed just not as loud as it is being blown. My hearing is already fucked up from the Marine Coprs and THe whistle is no fun but I understand the complete Need for it, just mabye not so loud all the time.

Me and the group that said fuck it went downstairs and we had a great time until hellfish came downstair and started telling us how to run shit. We were all doing just fine until that happened. My 2 cents... Seven, it would really be nice if this was indeed your last Hellfish game. We had a lot of complaints about you ranging from you manipulating the lights, ruining gametypes with "sit in the back" strategies, and being an immature player in general, as if "shooting everyone who walks by" wouldn't ruin your teammate's good time. As far as Hellfish "telling you how to run shit". It's our event, what do you expect? It's like taking a brain surgeon and hitting him in the hand with a hammer multiple times a day once or twice a month. Actually it's like listening to a whistle blown a few times a day, two days a month, IF you attend every game. About the whistle, it sucks but if that is what is needed then use it, but I think silent death is right, you dont have to blow it for 10 seconds strait, maybe a second or two. 10 seconds is a complete exaggeration.
