X-ball at World Cup & me...

**manike** · 10-30-2003, 04:55 PM

Who's a pretty boy then?

I was playing with Ignition which has quite a few guys from AO, Brad DeWees and Rob 'Kilaueakid'. Had a blast even though we didn't do so well at this event. Great bunch of guys and as ever it was a pleasure to meet, hang out, and play with them.

Lots and lots of love to Dawn Mills for the pictures!!!

**Top Secret** · 10-30-2003, 05:37 PM

Looking good Manike!

**automan39** · 10-30-2003, 05:48 PM

Fast!

I love it. I had a line of people asking to borrow and try it out.

You can see I'm just a little bit 'Empired Out'

New Profiler's rock!

where you rockin a Empire Halo as well? A kid came into my local store last night with one. Very Fast and consistent. I must have one for new my Shockers. My other halos dont perform worth a darn on the shocker. Alot of skipped shots for unknown reasons. And the sound/vibration activation is just to slick.

I was using a prototype of the Empire Halo, not one of the fancy new glitter shelled with aluminium labelled ones, but it is sound activated with clear catch cup etc.

Manike timmy won't be done by SC by a long way, but you are welcome to try any of the guns I have there.

LOL, that's actually part of how the name 'manike' came about. The other half is for Ann. The two names came togther to make 'Manike' which is the name of the yacht my parents (Mike and Ann) bought to retire onto. There are also other reasons it's my nick but that's why I spell it that way.

**Mango** · 10-30-2003, 08:31 PM

Hey Simon, looking good!

**McSweedish** · 10-30-2003, 10:07 PM

lol, are you raking that timmy?

**RenagadeOfFunk** · 10-30-2003, 10:16 PM

I like the first pic...makes you look scary...with those "Evil" eyes....I mean "Empire" eyes...

**nicad** · 10-30-2003, 10:41 PM

..and ofcourse we cant forget about:

Cheers!

**Top Secret** · 10-30-2003, 10:51 PM

Are the Empire HALOs out yet? I'm a HUGE Reloader fan(got 4 of 'em) :-D

**Doobie** · 10-31-2003, 08:42 AM

BUSTED!

I am quite jelous of your Profiler. The rest of us "lower" folk have to wait until mid to late November. Also, mister "hook-up" here was able to schmooze his way onto the VIP deck for the NXL games. He did come down "from on high" to cheer/coach Bobby's boys in the finals.

See you at AO SC

**MicroMiniMe** · 10-31-2003, 09:01 AM

So whats Rob shooting now that he sold the SFL?
Maybe the question should be what has he done to your designed X-Mag by now.

**Thordic** · 10-31-2003, 09:16 AM

Why does that girl look like she wants to go home, Simon?

And no, not to your home

Did everyone catch that? Also one of the reasons that I had National get involved with AO SE meet.

They look like they're both pondering something after that dramatic "soap opera" moment... Like Manike told her- "I dont want to play paintball any more... I WANNA DANCE!!!" *big sighhh*...."I coulda' been a dancer..."

**manike** · 10-31-2003, 09:54 AM

Does she still look that way now?

Anyway we were just talking, she had been working the Empire stand, so I knew her to chat to. Funny the amount of attention I got after starting to talk to her... including being slapped silly by 'Big Pete' and having some random girl from paintball.com claiming to have had a child with her... (confused the hell out of me until I realised she meant with me...

)

Thanks guys. Remind me not to talk to any women next time there are paintballers in the area.

It was after a big soap opera moment... when Big Pete came and slapped me around the face...

Now this is the way to hold your beer... Kila has sooo many good ideas...

**manike** · 10-31-2003, 10:08 AM

As for dancing... Well it was my Birthday (strange how I have a Birthday at every event with Ignition?

)

Oh and this is what happens to PeeGee (from Evolve) when he tries to keep up on my Birthday... Note no spillage, but the use of a knee AND a hand to keep upright.

Another World Cup, another convertible...

**JEDI** · 10-31-2003, 10:31 AM

Haha! Awesome pics! Wounded soldier pics are always good!

**Dayspring** · 10-31-2003, 10:36 AM

Yup. I caught that.
