OPERATION TAKE DOWN!!

FYI - a few of us from ACO would like to do a simple night mission this Saturday in Muskegon starting at 9pm. Please let us know if anybody would like to attend and I'll give directions. There is no cost involved.

Attn Hadoken - thank you for posting this reeenactment before all the details where given - I wanted to give everybody ample time to plan.

[shrapnel]

Any age limit for the night mission and the op? I would love to play the night mission

[Grunt22]

I believe ACO is 18+ for all their events.

[SPECter]

:-/Thats really a bummer if there is a age limit , i think that 16+ is more than mature , if we are mature enough to drive a car i think that we are more than mature enought to play at a simple operation, i think it would be great, and please please please, if a nother huge/awsome event is held, like a 2 dayer ( like the awsome operation wolverien fury!), dont have it be 18+, socom does hold awsome events, but they are cqb (which i am now starting to get better at sence the last socom operation) and i like out door jsut as much, and i had a riot at wolv. fury., thanks

Once again for the millionth time, it's not maturity. Please read all the other locked threads about age restrictions.

[xaos]

Mercenary...sounds tricksy. I'm in, assuming I can get my hands on a gun (shouldn't be a problem )

[Dutch]

Xaos-

For a few dollars, I can outfit you with a gun if you can't get one.

Well i used to be a member here (ssxmac) but i was gone awhile and you guys must'ave cleaned house. Anywho, i've got a quick question. The Lowell game and the night game are two seperate events right? maybe i read wrong. If they are seperate is the lowell one 18+ only? if they're one and the same, its pretty obvious.

You guys do realize that Nov. 1 is the MSU vs. UofM football game dont you! ive got tickets...decisions decisions!

[silentkilla]

ya, not the best timing, i wouldn't be able to come even if i was 18 (U of M RULES!!!)

[Dutch]

FACT: there are actually people out there that really don't care for watching sports and getting outside in the fresh air.

[famasforever]

WELL I DO!!! ;D

I'll be outside getting fresh air, since i have tickets and all...

Still nobody answered the real question. Is 18+ for both events or just the night one. Or are they one and the same?

If i didnt have tickets it would be a nobrainer, but i do, and im prolly going to the game.
