Well ain't that the darndest thing!

I'm just surprised the person I lent it to was willing to stick it in their barrel in the first place. I know it had to have scratched the hell out of their inner barrel.

That reminds me of the time I found one of my old TM M93R magazines in the village at TT a full six months after I lost it. I just happened to see it in the dirt, cleaned it up and it was good to go.

BTW I did not get any of the lost and found stuff that people are reporting from this game.

One of my CO2 canisters that was on my table in direct sunlight exploded, it is pretty awesome looking. A guy near my van heard it and was nice enough to move them all into the shade for me. Saved a several bucks worth of likely to explode shells lol. Another protip to add: 12g CO2 will explode if left in direct sunlight long enough.

We heard it go off to, I was over there with the fellow looking around for what exploded. We couldn't find anything, but your stuff was out in the sun just baking, so we moved it to the shade. We guessed that something in the case or in your van had exploded due to the heat.

[Dominum]

Yeah, he told me about it when I got back and we looked around, the 12g CO2 shell is split in half, it looks awesome. I'll show you next time I see you.

The game started off badly for me. When I got to the closest Bravo base at game start, I went to put my mag in my FNC and noticed both highcaps had somehow fallen out my pocket. I brought my FNC because it is good at long range, and I was expecting to be involved in long range firefights on the open areas. This turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I switched to my lower powered Type 89 which is has only a zero MED. It turned out that the majority of my kills were at close range in the woods and would have been inside the MED of my FNC.

I had a fun day overall until about 4:30 because most Bravo had left, and I kept getting killed before I could link up with the few Bravo still there.

Once years ago at a Red Fox game (don't remember if it was SCAA or AOSC), the reps put up measured markers indicating the MED's of 20, 50, and 100 feet. I am wondering if we need to do that periodically at games to reinforce depth perception. I noticed not once, but SEVERAL times, different people would get hit abd ask the shooters what their MED was. The shooters would respond twenty feet, and the victims would start arguing the shooters were inside twenty feet, but I witnessed the shootings were at or outside twenty feet. People need to realize that twenty feet is only about 3 1/2 adult males lying down end to end.

I agree, one of the Bravo snipers was shooting very close with a BASR, and it wasn't one of those situations where it was iffy if he was past 100 feet, he was less than 50 walking around popping people. If you're going walk around using a BASR like an assault rifle then you need to consider changing roles or switching springs..

Awesome Dom, I look forward to seeing it.

As for MEDs, I know of at least 1 case where a sniper rifle got a 50ft MED instead of a 100ft MED. And it wasn't like it was close to the mark either. However, I believe the player was an alpha player, and not a bravo player.

It's funny though, having run the chrono that morning, how many guns I DIDN'T see at the chrono station, but saw on the field...

[RPK95]

I really liked this field, as this was the first time I ever played there. I now know why everyone says it's a great field. One of the most frightening things at this game was when the guy who was Bravo's CO ran right in front of my team near the end of the first battle. You really gave us all heart attacks.

At one point, when alpha was hanging around Lincoln's Hold waiting for us Bravo players to respawn, there was an alpha player with an LMG pointed right at me 8 feet away, and when I didn't see any tag on his gun, I asked him if he had chronoed, and his response was no. I then asked if he knew what his FPS was, and he didn't know that either. He was about to light me up from within 10' with an LMG he didn't know the FPS of. Needless to say, I was a little concerned.

[Dominum]

Sounds like I need to whip out one of my old ideas...

Random in game inspections of tags/randomly selected persons to be re chronographed in game.

Marauder, could you describe what he looked like? Tan shirt with a black vest?

Dom, this was my friend's father who did this. He was telling us about it, glad he did that though, always nice to help someone. Btw poat up a photo of that C02

did he look like this

[marpat96]

It wasn't him, there is a green tag on that LMG in the picture, I have others to prove it also. How about this: Was he black? Did he have an RPK? Those were the only other support gunners out there. The guy in the picuture did chrono his gun, I at first thought he didn't but he did :p

[Avenger]

So, I missed this one. I can't wait to get my drivers licence and not have to rely on my dad. We both wanted to go, but but Dad realized just in time that saturday was his and mom's anniversary. So, hopefully I'll see you all at the next one!

If this every happens to anyone find a mod/rep immediately and we will remove this person from the game. No one should be using a gun they haven't chrono'd and have no idea what it is shooting.
