MILSIM: OP Blind Fury 8, 08/27/11, Springfield, OH

[Avenir]

I'm there!

[blade]

Gunny, here is what I had in mind last January; www.airsoftevents.com/medias/images/airfield_2011_layout.jpg
and www.airsoftohio.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=754&pictureid=14443
I would say 60% of it is done by now. The remaining will hopefully be all done in July and August, all depends if I keep priority on the airbase or if I switch gear toward the firebase and goldcity. The latter was a huge problem last year (250 players in a 5 acres village can be somewhat difficult to handle).

I will keep you guys posted. I say by August 1st, I should be able to have a picture similar to what we will have for the event.

Gentlemen,

As previously announced, today is the day I must clean the roster. Unfortunately, some of you did not make your payment which left your spot unsecured. For that reason, I regretfully assume that you no longer want to be part of this event. If it is not the case, I apologize and am I glad to tell you it is not too late to register.

Until August 1st, you still have the chance to register and send your payment. Simply follow the link below; www.airsoftevents.com/events_register.php?event_id=2

Obviously, the sooner you register and pay, the more chances you will have to be part of the coolest and more challenging missions. I am not sure but I believe the Commanders decided those registering at the last second would be on sandbags duties =D

Just kidding but on a more serious note, your quick registration will definitely help the commanders, the leaders and most importantly me.

Hoping to see you all registering again. If you have any comments or questions, please feel free to reply back or email me directly at [e-mail]

More updates to come later this week.

[Rooster]

On average, how many people camp the day before the event?. I am considering camping, but I dont want to be the only peoson out their!.

[blade]

We usually get about 40 players and more. While it is $5.00 extra for each camper, it is still cheaper than an hotel and much more convenient than driving early in the morning.

[Rooster]

yes, because I don't want to spend an extra $50 for a hotel just so I can sleep, and I DO NOT want to wake up at 3AM and make the 4 hr drive to Ohio, so I just might camp. Thanks for the info!

[Rooster]

Are these smoke grenades allowed?

[Viper]

Those, probably not. They have to be cold burning.

[Rooster]

Ok, Thanks for the info Viper!

[blade]

When we deal with grenades, we want them to have no external flame. So even those called "cold burn" actually get VERY HOT when touched without gloves

So if the grenades above have no open flame, I say go ahead with them.

UPDATE:
Gentlemen, the player pack just got released, head over AEV forums to get your copy.

I have a question for the host/event representative, I have some grenades very safe although banned in Michigan tournaments because they use real pyrotechnics(small fire cracker) they are the TLSFx ball grenades and the thermobaric grenades. I know this is a stretch and just wanted to throw the suggestion out there.

[blade]

Sorry Alko, same for Ohio; We don't allow any pyrotechnics grenades. I am sure many players would be mature and safe enough to be allowed to use them but as a general rule of thumb, we can't risk any accidents in the field.

[Knief]

Blade,

Is registration for both teams still open? A friend and I are looking at signing up, and there are a couple of other guys on Green Team, but they already out number Tan pretty severely. Could we still sign up for Green to play with the guys we know?

[blade]

Knief, the registration is still open for all but I would obviously prefer to get more TANs
