I had a really fun day of slinging plastic with everyone today! Per usual thanks to Pagan and to everyone that reffed today. Definitely had a bunch of enjoyable moments.
Personally I did not experience any hit calling issues today and it seems for the most part, a really great crowd of players were there today. From what I saw, pretty much everyone played honestly and honorably. Great job everyone!
It was really nice getting to see some players attend today who I haven't seen in a very long time! Hope you guys can make it out more!
Oh and I said I would do this but to "Pandabear" I never thought I would get cut down by a light saber in an airsoft game! Good "light saber" kill on me during the first reverse 300 game of the day!
See everyone at the next one!

Overall it was a great day for airsoft.
Pagan and I were about the last to leave, and the amount of trash left behind was pretty disappointing. There were bottles and cans left on pretty much every table and on the ground. Also, the parking lot was pretty trashed.
95% of the players there today were all adults. As adults, you are all very capable of walking 20 or so feet to the trash can.
I would hate to see for the owners to get fed up with the place being trashed every time we play.
Please pick up after yourselves, heck, if you see something on the ground and it isn't yours, pick it up and toss it. Keep it clean and respectable looking before we all get the boot.
Thanks

Had a great time today. There was only one instance where I heard hit calling was an issue, but other than that it all seemed to be honest. I think I got friendly-fired one time, but it wasn't a big deal. It was great to get out and see some new faces as well as familiar (couldn't think of another way to word it...). I can't really pick a favorite game, there were lots of good ones. And props to the dude who perfectly ambushed us and killed the hostage during the hostage evac game.

I had an amazing time today. The only problem's I had were a few instances of friendly fire, even though I had my back to them and was shooting the other way . The only other thing is that people would keep shooting as you have your hands up and leaving, I can see how if I was coming out of the castle but when I call out hit and put my hands up you don't have to make sure I'm dead haha. But that didn't dampen my day at all. I thought it was a fun hostage game when I was on the stretcher, and major props to the guy who faked being one of us then turning on us! But thank you SK for hosting another great game!

The only other thing is that people would keep shooting as you have your hands up and leaving This happened to me a few times too. The first time I got a nice BB right along my chin line below my ear. I didn't realize how bad it was until I saw it for myself in the car on my way home. Seems like lots of people were getting shot in the face and goggles, not necessarily bad, but just another reason I like to wear my mesh lower ;D. After seeing all those guys with AKs makes me want an AK now... And to anyone who I didn't introduce myself to/ spent most of my time shooting AT them, I was the guy with the SIG in woodies.

Were you up in the tower in the castle when you got shot in the ear? If so, sorry about that, I smacked somebody in the ear up there and it looked a little painful.

No, that must have been someone else. Mine was right in front of castle. And since I haven't said this yet, thank you to Pagan, Yankee, and the other dudes who were reffing. You guys ran awesome games today.

Well I had an absolute blast, as I always do at the No Limits events hosted by SK, and I am really sore now. However it was totally worth it judging by the amount of fun I had today. It's very unfortunate though, to see that it's reported there was allot of trash in the pavilion and the parking lot. This is something I think we will definitely work on this issue next game and those in the future; right guys? I am happy to report that players not calling there hits was quite a rare occurrence.
I do apologize to those who played the 2 zombie games towards the end of the day, I believe there was a lack of effort on my part to make the game as fair as possible. The zombies were getting steam rolled due to nearly the same number of zombies as survivors. Its was unfair to the zombies, boring for the survivors, and it just isn't that much fun for anyone involved. Now I apologize to everyone involved as I should have correct this issue immediately. I am going to do some research in to different zombie game types to find the fairest and most enjoyable attributes to bring to any future games of this type. I promise you that next time this will not happen, and consider today's zombie game just a small anomaly in a truly awesome event. (sorry for putting this paragraph in, but I felt obligated to apologize to those mentioned above.)
Now I did take quite a few pictures and short video clips, including the civil war game, which I will be uploading as soon as I can. I will post a link to the album when I'm finished, and again thank you Pagan for an awesome day! ;D

Oh yah, somebody that rented a barrel condom left their driver's license there. Get a hold of Pagan for info about getting it back, he has the contact info for the lady.

Nice day + lots of airsoft action + decent sportsmanship = fun.
The SK crew were great hosts, and managed to start on time and keep things moving with over 80 players thanks to solid organization/preparation. It seems that time and commitment are required to host an event, and we appreciate your effort.

Did the hostages really get tied up with plastic cuffs?

Fun as always, had a great time slingin' plastic and shootin the breeze with everyone who came out. Only saw 1, maybe 2 instances where people were not calling their hits in which I addressed the issue with those players. I also had to tell someone to shut it when they started to yell out to the opposing team during the 2nd part of the hostage rescue that they hit them. Witnessed 1 person who somehow managed to make it onto the field with non-seal shooting glasses on. This was addressed immediately and everyone was informed of potential consequences. Other than that I believe it was a pretty solid day. As usual, I enjoyed bringing a little humor to the day when I solo rushed out of the north castle door those two times in a row (during the 2nd reverse 300 game) bringing a torrent of doom flying my way (as I'm pretty sure at least 20+ people were shooting at me each time). What can I say, I'm a sucker for pain and making sure others have a good time Pros: -Good sportsmanship (very few issues) -Seemed like everyone had a great time -Excellent weather -Added a few new scars to my body, huzzah! Cons: -Hearing about all the trash that was left behind - Seriously people, throw your garbage into a can before you leave. -Had to leave early (sadness)
