Bluo Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Hey guys! First time posting on this forum. Hopefully doing my third qualifying game this Sunday, and was wondering if there was anyone going to The Depot in Glasgow that'd be keen to team up? Cheers!

Supporters Rogerborg Posted August 28, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 28, 2019 Ahoy and welcome. Team up in the sense of stand in the same corner at the briefing, have some bantz, and nod as we pass each other on the way to respawn: sure (although I will friendly frag you). Team up in the sense of synchronised multiglam, team frequencies, and LARPing a human centipede while breaching: not so much. I'll be there on Sunday wearing solid tan, likely with a suppressed MP5K if you want to do a bit of the former. If the latter, there are some actual teams there that will doubtless give you a shake. Oh, there's a bring-and-buy on, if you want to get a head start on emptying your bank account. Nobody is going to be asking for a UKARA number, given that you're on site actually playing airsoft.

Bluo Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 I'll likely be wearing a green jumper and awkwardly sitting in the corner 😂 Be good to meet you and hear that friendly frag coming near me. Oh that's good, I've got a student overdraft that's just waiting to be maxed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted August 28, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 28, 2019 Well, I'll wear a rose in my lapel an... waaaait a second, have I stumbled into the dating thread again? I'm usually there with Workmate Eddy, but he said something about slinging coins rather than BBs this Sunday (I think there's an Old Firm game on). There's often a couple of other unsociable bastards from here at the Depot, let's see who else we can roust up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aengus Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 If you see a guy in tan with an mp5 holding a grenade shoot him regardless of team. He seems to think he's playing some kind of free for all? Something about 50 virgins or the likes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musica Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I might join. Got a free game day to cash in but no friends to join me with the old firm on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do wonder how many more drop-outs there'll be this Sunday once folk realise there's a footy-fight on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's telling that they had spaces left on a Wednesday before gameday but to be fair everyone probably got their fill at the charity weekend. (some might not be allowed back 😅) Probably just the football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted August 29, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 29, 2019 Huh, both own-kit and hires are still available for Sunday, that is unusual. Huh-squared: Their site has a banner at the top today saying "Please remember that all online bookings are non-refundable and non-transferrable as per our terms and conditions." True, but I think that banner is new, and I wonder if they've had a bunch of them this week. Pity, as it's in everyone's best interests to allow cancellations (and reselling the slot) or transfers so that players actually show up. Might be a bit more intimate than usual on Sunday then, with hopefully a bit less "GO! GO! GO!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression you could transfer a booking previously so it's news to me. I can see why they don't want to refund as the site is almost always fully booked so they probably want to discourage pre-booking to reserve spots and if they get a message saying someone wants a refund because they can't make it they CAN increase their quantity online and sell another ticket . I'm sure I've seen it be out of stock and then checked again and there are a few in stock and usually they write on FB something like "we found a few more spots". They raised the deposit price to discourage that type of behaviour / no shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea he seems switched on. Just don't forget he has all your personal data from your UKARA forms 😅 9 hours ago, Aengus said: As in for me to say or the depot to say?

For the depot to say as you can book multiple slots as an individual so it's clear you can book for others but can't transfer is a bit weird. Like I say probably just trying to stop people hogging slots. So back on topic We have 4 bodies this weekend? Me, Roger+Eddie and Bluo? Here's what I will be looking like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot seem to get any consistency out of a longer barrel. Top tip: whatever else you get, or "upgrade", buy one <£100 AEG as well and leave it alone.

My ukara took me weeks but the owner was on holiday and it's him who files all the paperwork for it. Others get it in a few days. Probably have it within a week but it's a bit like how long is a piece of string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted September 2, 2019 Supporters Share Posted September 2, 2019 Sorry that we didn't hook up more and bond and all that, I can't recognise people without their eyepro and guns. Good choice on the Glock, I reckon, decent workhorse pewers. And in the best colour scheme too. Mmm, tan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
