    Sitting Duck reacted to Del Monty in Forum Get-Together   
    It might not be a bad idea organising 3 separate get together's for the North/Midlands/South.
     
    Maybe delegate 3 people from those areas to organise something local(ish) to them and see about a larger event in the summer next year .. perhaps a 3 way war to see which division is the best ( It's south by the way)

    Well if it falls through then lets do a North, South & maybe Midlands outing in between....
     
    2 or 3 AF branches so to speak and then if goes well we can can make a comitted effort to go Midway
    The branches could vary some skirmish sites for example:
     
    Sandpit - Dartford
    Epsom Bunker
    maybe the barracks Kent & Portsmouth way
     
    Not too fussed about Woolwich bunker 51 or whatever is called but 3 or 4 sites I'd like to try down south soon
    if we are serious about it and try not to drop out at last minute then I'm sure we can help out with a lift
    or pick-up if not too far out of the way
     
    We can start off all casual & friendly - easy on touchy feely crap though
    then who knows we could end up having a North Vs South match - maybe even get a small team for next year Annual event
     
    But just a laugh n joke, make a change to play somwhere new, get my ar$e kicked by some different players etc...
    swap hints tips have a go with some different weapons - vote on best loadout, top sniper/marksman
    bit of banter:
     
    Oooh yeah I used to have one of those guns.....
    And then I went and bought a proper gun instead
     
    Should be good I think - except for me
     
    Oh yeah Sitting Duck, yeah I met him.....
    Jeez wot a to$$er you probably say afterwards
     
    Well deffo gonna look at them south sites soon I said but if we do get to grips with a mid meet up
    maybe September might not be too hot for running round in hot weather all in full loadout gear
     
    well anyway I'm sure we sort something out eventually

    Rotate AEG 180 degrees so it upside down
    pull out old mag - insert new mag
    return gun to upright position - no bb's on floor
     
    unless you are JambWow - then BB's are EVERYWHERE but in mag as you fill it - FANTASTIC
     
    ahh wtf - I'm so good those 4 or 5 bb's are the only ones that fail to hit the target - YEAH RIGHT !!!!!
    They way I shoot so crap I ain't bothered about a few bb's and if they they hit my boot am I hit ???
     
    Now make the sound effect like breaking wind and then suppose I could buy it for a laugh to $hit on the enemy

    I'm so up for a weekender for sure though think manchester is as far north as i'm going..any further north and i'll need a tetanus shot <3

    Haha i guess Renting from another player is against the Law (i know i know i should learn Vcra off by heart) well if i don't have my Ukara anyhow
    if i do i'm rocking up with a Desert eagle and a tan ak47

    if you happen to pick a First&only site i'll check it out (signing up as a member to sort Ukara out) so can make it one of my stops to getting my membership

    I'm looking on ebay for a Donald Duck loadout already
     
     
    search in the retailers thread it will become clear - my wounds are starting to heal
    doctors reckon I might make a fully recovery if I take 2 x FireHawks From ProAirsoft Supplies
     
    Back to subject:
     
    But has ANYBODY been there - anyone around that way been there or maybe pop along in next week or so
    Didn't check prices or availability or if they mainly play Saturday or Sunday etc.....
     
    But I don't know how many we can get together - but I dunno say 20 or 30 perhaps ????
     
    Right say 25 or 2 dozen (one of them a bakers)
    So we crash perhaps on a normal skirmish day so we could make up one team or spread about 50/50
     
    I mean what would walk-on be £20-ish, usual type of thing easy n simple for first meet up
    this forum might even get some new members from the "other" players that day
     
    if all goes well and numbers are good we can build on this either private hire or field if numbers are there
    but that site seems to have everything at first glance:
     
    in the midlands - wood/cqb etc....
    gotta be better than any bit of field I would of thought but need somebody who has been or local to check it out
    I am not gonna be the one to shoot if it is crap and I am not gonna be the ABTA booking agent crap either
     
    we all book our own stuff - skirmish site, camp site or hotel/premier inn blah blah blah keep it all seperate n simple
    we do one day skirmish - maybe stay over - maybe not & grab a curry/chinese afterwards if you like
     
    I would be travelling from Surrey and "may" have room for one perhaps two in the motor
    provided we don't bring every weapon in our barracks, me & I'm sure my 14yr old will come
     
    say end July onwards but that will soon be here so best kick some dates in case peeps away & also NAE
     
    Not written in stone yet where n when - if anybody knows something similar lets hear about it
    I just banged midland cqb into google so don't blame me if its $hit
     
    Somebody take it further ring and/or check it out some more
     
    looks like maybe £25 walk-on one day but the do £40 2-day walk on
    so we could go nuts n stay over - perhaps look at it as a NAE warm-up

    Physical violence needs to be dealt with properly and fairly but also without making a rush decision
    Both suspended/chucked off for the day, check and not rushed decision if going down a lengthy or perm ban
     
    Just pointing out - yes it takes 2 to to make an argument but sometimes one party is more the agressor than the other
    so any severe or extreme long term ban needs to be implemented with a bit of care
     
    Marshals or the site also needs to ensure everybody plays fair and respects rules and other players
    if the site fails to do this - then the site itself can suffer if members say forget this and go elsewhere
    (regular non-hit takers, abusive players, or site/marshals failing in their duties - these can ruin a site's rep/business)
     
    Or the site could implement a parental approach to physical violence eg the classic Parent to Child scenario:
     
    "Don't" - WHACK
    "hit" - WHACK
    "your"- WHACK
    "little"- WHACK
    "brother"- WHACK
     
    "That"- WHACK
    "is"- WHACK
    "spiteful"- WHACK WHACK
     
    You soon learnt NOT to answer back or question anything that provoked a further response = more slaps
     
    Just gotta love the ironic way we was told by parents violence solves nothing as I was told:
    "because I said so" - WHACK WHACK WHACK WHACK
     
    Ahh well, think the situation was dealt with - certainly better than the parental technique
