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)
-
Sitting Duck got a reaction from TacMaster in Forum Get-Together
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

what about this for a midland meetup if it ever gets off the ground
tuddenham - seems to have a bit of everything - anyone been there:
http://www.gunmanairsoft.co.uk/gunman_airsoft_sites_tuddenham.php
Or book out a cheap n cheerful Premier Inn - we take it over and just go nuts
then do a runner before real SWAT arrive
OK - soz really really stupid dumbar$e thing to say especially with hotel staff's health n safety
not to mention the bb mess in the morning & the hungarian/polish maid saying:
"I no clean this $hit up no more"
OK what about the tuddenham site then - anyone been there ???
The NAE - hmm might see about popping down for a day if possible but long weekender
might be ott for this old fart and the care home will be worried if I am gone too long

Sitting Duck got a reaction from Airsoft-Ed in New airsoft muzzle flash technology?
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

Sitting Duck reacted to b1n0gHo5t in Forum Get-Together
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
-
Sitting Duck reacted to jcheeseright in UKARA - how long does it take
Retailers will do UKARA checks for anyone, I phone up fire support to check the number of everyone I sell to, using the self check is hit and miss at best.
-
Sitting Duck got a reaction from b1n0gHo5t in Forum Get-Together
I might not get mine until then at the rate it is taking
but wtf you can borrow a spare 2-tone one
(will spray illuminous dayglow orange so you are easier to hit)
actually will bring my B500A1 for ya - you will be so fed up you will be throwing bb's further
FANTASTIC QUALITY GUN

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

Sitting Duck got a reaction from cavninja in "the punching video" how would you react?
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

Sitting Duck reacted to two_zero in How come you aren't allowed to spray a gun but allowed to own a RIF?
What??!!
You mean I went through all that hassle getting a firearms cert all for nothing?!

Sitting Duck got a reaction from Airsoft_Mr B in Cleaning the barrel - rubbing alcohol
Kitchen roll rarely breaks up

Kitchen roll is fine - Bounty - one sheet type of thing or cheap no frills Kitchen roll should not break up

Sitting Duck got a reaction from cavninja in How do you choose a loadout?
Go nuts and do the Darth Vader Loadout - crap at long range but lethal light-sabre kills
come to think of it - mayvbe they should do a Star Wars theme skirmish...
feckin awsome - rebels vs stormtroopers...
Actually bet the yanks already have this for jedi airsofters
Deffo seen lots of chubby 10-12yr olds that could easily pass as yoda I reckon

Sitting Duck reacted to Super64 in USAF Kit Stolen
Just been for a quick visit to Lakenheath, came away with two F-15's and a C130 if anyone's interested. Seems they're now guarding the sleeping bags, but not the aircraft ;-)
Where exactly was this posted? I would have expected Suffolk Constabulary to be doing any enquiries off base and the USAF doing all the internal stuff.

Sitting Duck got a reaction from Lozart in GUn range for £300-£400
You don't even know what your style of play is atm....
you might find yourself running as a spotter/sniper
or think wtf and go sprinting around with pistols all die hard like
or more like not got a bloomin' clue what I'm doing and so just bring up the rear
or become a diversion / decoy for the more experienced team players to rush from other side
You could end up buying all nice stuff but find your loadout & style doesn't suit your own playstyle
sure I'd love to run in all guns blazing but with my lame ar$e skill don't think I wanna sit in safezone for 9:30mins either
(8:00mins in safe zone and that is a good game for me - just kidding)
chill a sec - get playing and see how YOU take to it, your strengths weakness etc....
then a while later you buy the stuff that suits how YOU play
I'm sure loads of people think they wanna snipe and then find it is too boring or not for them
and vice versa I would imagine too
