Armory Airsoft/Chaos Paintball REC 12-5-2010

[Guts and Glory]

Figured I'd start off.

First of all, I'd like to thank Canto and the armory airsoft/chaos paintball staff for everything today.

The weather tried to stop us, but we prevailed. The games were exciting every time. It was a blast to meet new people and see old comrades. I got a few kills for once, and had enough "wth" moments for a lifetime, . I have nothing else to say. . I'm sorry I didn't put out a more Russian persona for the day.

To the individual that let me use his smart charger and who I lent my mp5k to, anytime man, thanks.

Canto, let me know of anything that pops up. I'm considering the 19th game, but if not, just stop by. That aks74u of yours is beautiful.

Well, hopefully next time my batteries don't die so often, (Curse you Winter!) my guns don't freeze up, and that I have a more proper loadout.

Finally, I'd just like to thank everyone for making today the best time I've had in a long time. For a pre-birthday birthday present, this was the best gift ever.

Also, URRAH!!! For the Motherland!

P.S. Buy my stuff

Also, to the individual who was taking photos, I cannot wait to see them. ;D

Yup, i was taking photos. Unfortunatly the battery died just before the really i nteresting things got going. But i'll go through and edit them and probably hand them to Canto so they find their way onto a photobucket.

As for me, I had fun. Got way more kills than I normally do. Tried some alternative rules for the two fields we had access to, seemed to work out alright.

I'm happy that bringing the truck on this one turned out as well as it did, especially since this turned out to be the first big snow of the year! By the time everybody got home there were already dozens of accidents and emergency crews racing all over town!
But the Expedition is a GAS GUZZLER to be sure!

But anywho, I'll see ya'll again next weekend.

Side note:
We're going to have to restrict the passenger capacity of the truck to 4-5 in the future, just to have sufficient room for peoples gear, unless another vehicle is involved.
And folks are going to have to learn how to pack their gear right too!

Any update on the pictures?

Had a great time and really enjoyed seeing everyone. I thought the games were run well and appreciate Canto stepping up to balance the teams after the first couple games. My only concern is the downtime between games. I was watching the clock and it took 42 minutes between the first and second set of games. I understand a few folks were having battery issues, but it was pretty darn cold and most people were ready to go in 10-15 minutes. I'm not trying to be a whiner, I'm just really looking forward to the game on the 19th and hope something can be done to keep things moving. If this could be addressed at the briefing meeting on the 19th so everyone understands the issue, and maybe we could institute 5 and 2 minute warnings or something. Thanks for listening.

I'm still cleaning them up. Didn't have nearly as many as I otherwise would have with my battery dying. And shooting on the run spoils about 25% of them.

[Muffinman]

ok, really looking foward to seeing them

[Master_Oki_Akai]

Handed oe files to Canto, so will probably see them soon. Remember, there aren't that many or much variety with my battery dying (lesson to me!)

[Guts and Glory]

That day, whose battery wasn't dying? I have nothing else to say.

I think you had a pic of me fiddling with my type 89. Me being clad in Russian Gorka means that kind of photo is a Red Alliance fun pic. I.E. "Russian Soldier confused by complicated capitalist Japanese weapon system"

Pictures die?

Any updates?

I'd just like to say that I appreciated everyone's patience with me, I know I tend to be a little "energetic".

I gave the photos to Canto, you can see some of them used in the event page for the rec game on Jan 9th
