  1. Ask a marshal to escalate it. I know, nobody likes doing it. I don't, we're there to play, not tattle. But more of us should. OK, I hereby personally pledge that every time I catch myself thinking "I wish someone would do something about that bellend" that I'll be the someone. Snitches get moral riches.
  2. Er, why weren't they hoofed off site for arguing the toss with a marshal? And why leave the site rather than having a word with the Grand High Wizard about what was going on?
  3. Good plan, it's great to see a site running so regularly. I hope they blow the roof off the place, metaphorically speaking.
  4. Sounds ace. That floor, so pristine, no puddles, decomposing pigeons or piles of BBs in every corner! Any news on what sort of hours and events they're going to be able to sustain? I mean, if Lockdown 2: Exponential Boogaloo doesn't get them.
  5. Sites that run entirely on Facebook, and only post their events to a "players" subgroup that you have to find, then apply to join.

     

    Are they trying to fail?

      Given that they're still advertising places for next Sunday when every other site I've looked at is solidly booked out into October, they'd be better off taking God-Moders' money, then kicking them off site in the first game.

  6. Oh my God, they killed the Depot.

     

     

  7. [STAGE WHISPERS] It sold pretty much immediately.
  8. Praise where it's due, this is a pretty honest advert.
  9. Today was a good day to pew hard. My first day at Biohazard airsoft, an Old Abandoned Chemical Factory CQB site A late start and somewhat vague brief in a rather echoey safe zone weren't great, but then the actual play was really fun. I've been rather spoiled by the big indoors area of the Depot, but Biohazard know their site well, and tailored the games to make the best of it. There was actually more opportunities for stand-off firefights up the length of the site than at the Depot, or you could Billy in up the room maze in the middle with pistol and grenades. Short walks to spawn, quick turn-arounds, good marshalling, good value: yes, very happy with that.
  10. Is another word for tribe, and tribalism usually ends badly. Have you considered trying to change the way airsoft is played in Italy? It sounds like a recipe for gamesmanship and acrimony.
  11. I suspect his father was killed with a plastic 1911.
  12. Looks like I'm actually going to be able to play indoors on Sunday before Greet Leader Nicola shuts Scotchland down again.

     

    I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl on her third Roofie Colada!

      I wouldn't touch her with yours.

       

      Honestly, it's going to be hard, and hard to not just empty tracers into everything for the lulz of it.

  13. Bonum commune communitatis. No clarifications yet, other than to re-iterate "organised team sport", but no mention of numbers or distinction between indoors and outdoors.
  14. Northern California is surprisingly clement. Universal Life Church, by any chance? I haven't seen you at the meetings. But then we all wear those hoods and cloaks.
  15. I found it notable (in the sense of not noting it) that there's none listed in that document. And right at the start we have a bunch of "air sports" that appear to be just chaps larking around in planes (or jumping out of them). Also: competitive caving? But they do have an association. We do have UKAPU, but they don't appear to have made the argument, and nor does paintball. But that list is 4 years old. Can anyone turn up a newer one?
  16. Hilariously, they do seem to recognise darts as a "sport", Maybe we could lob the BBs by hand?
  17. I have a message in my inbox. I hope it's challenging me to a duel... [UPDATE] Huh, more reasonable points. Look, just ban him, we don't need this sort of adult behaviour breaking out around here.
  18. Where are you seeing that? Al Beeb are saying "organised team sports". I know it's likely to change nine times before next Monday, plus the regional mayors will be coming up with their own spin on it.
  19. It's nothing personal, really. It's just that sight and sound unseen, for all we know your friend is a ham-handed gibbon who's made it worse, it's the £95 plus postage gopping model with the M4 buffer which is going to have a limited market, the mid caps are handy but the blue bits just reduce the value further while not actually making it even close to being an IF. Used plastic CYMAs are bargain guns, I'm afraid. You're free to ask whatever you want, but I think you're more likely to be offered half of that, if you can find anyone who wants that model.
  20. Mmm, we'll need to see the details on that one. Nippy Sturgeon will doubtless double down and ban us Scotch folk from even looking at ourselves in a mirror.
  21. Airsoft, I remember that... 😢 I honestly don't know how you handle that level of bad temper and gamesmanship. It seems orthogonal if not diametrically opposed to the ethos of airsoft.
  22. Sounds absolutely bang on though. It's why I'd always suggesting buying a sub-£100 VSR-a-like just to see if you enjoy it. Throw in a £20 spring and piston and you'll be up to 500fps, some cheap tuning and you're much of the way there. Nobritsch is selling a dream - his videos are basically marketing for how effective sniping is. And like all marketing, well, if you believe that, I have a bridge unskirmished fully upgraded SSG to sell you.
