**Northwest AO Day, AFTERMATH**
Alright, I figured I'd start out the thread, I'll have video up in a bit.
First off, having to shove out 150 bucks because the field owner lied to us, kind of sucked. We were told the field would be ready by 10:30... we didn't get to play till 12:00. And I paid around 9:15, we showed up at 9:00 were told they they're a bunch of wankers who decided we couldn't set-up the field... None-the-less, the 4 hours we got to play were probably some of the best I've ever had playing. My favorite part was using Burphel's Sydarm... man that thing is FUN. Brandon felt the power of it too... haha, we both went to the 50 but I didn't know he was there, I come around to bunker JoeyJoe and Brandon's staring my Sydarm down the barrel, I miss the first shot and come around and we both light eachother up... I got one in the thumb... from about 12 inches away, surprisingly wasn't that bad. Then later on in a Woodsbally game I was just messing around with Burphel and Pullman yelling at them and stuff, Ended up 1-balling them (With the Sydarm) both times I wasn't even trying, just shooting balls their way for fun. ![]() |

yeah, today made me never want to go to STP again, or at least to play walkons just for the fact that they screwed us pretty bad on that who field issue. Other than that I had a lot of fun. Probably some of the most fun I've had playing paintball in a long while. Even though the field wasn't the best arrange field it was still fun to play. Lots of doubling up in the 50 cheese to make for some interesting moves. I had a good time meeting all the guys that showed up and can't wait to do this again.
P.S. Sorry again Ross for running into that bunker as you were coming into it from the other side. Didn't mean to knock ya over. P.P.S. Where's the pictures joe??? Oh yeah, Just for you getting this whole field thing straightened out it looks like I'm gonna owe ya many rides ![]() |

It wasn't the guy who arranged it's fault. But the poor communication between the two groups.
Justin is trying to get me (us) a refund, he wasn't there and wants to get this resolved, he's just as upset as we are that they pulled that on us. "Hey bro…sorry about that..i was not there, but you should call me so we can get this resolved…maybe I can get you a refund. Call me today or early tomorrow if I don’t answer, im gonna be at a picnic today..but I do agree with you that was ****ty of them to do…and I will try to you some type of refund. Take care Justin " |

Well, that's good at least that Justin is going to try and make things right. I'm not sure if I've actually met him or not since this was the first time I'd been there in almost a year. At least he's admitted that the ball got somewhat dropped and is going to fix it. Those other two guys, forget their names did sour my opinion on STP. I mean when the owner comes out and says that he doesn't care if about what the customer wants it's his field, blah blah that's just not good business and they most likely won't get my business ever again except for maybe the 3 man tournies, but that's just a maybe. Like I said earlier other than that everything went realy smoothe and was lots of fun.

ok I'm downloading the video now. Looks like I don't have the right codec so I'm doing the highres in hopes that it's an AVI file.
I must say that paintballing with fellow AOers is the only way to play. I dont think I've had that much fun paintballing ever. THAT WAS A BLAST!!!! Totally worth the 4 hour drive. Sorry I didn't hang with you guys afterwares at the dinner, but I had to jet home. I started falling asleep on the freeway so I had to pull over at a truck stop to take a nap cause you guys wore me out playing. Oh and Brandon no hard feelings for knocking me over at the 50. I'm just still sore from Dustins 4 shots to my head. The swellings gone down, but I still have a head-ache lol Also my belly welt from that first game where I got bunkered is still peeling. Man that was a blast. I just wish the guys there at STP would have been nicer to use and let us set up the field. I went out to give them a hand when I first got there and they just blow me off. I think we need to bring the next NW AO day a little more south like.... somewhere in mid Oregon so we can get more guys from Calie to come up. That way also you guys can show your dedication to the game and AO day by driving the 4 hours this time. lol Barrel-Break I wish you would have been there. I have an extra X-valved mag that no one was using. It's a lot better then that micromag I let you shot on your birthday... this one actually works. lol We missed all of you guys. Wish there were more there, but the group of guys we had was great. I don't think I would rather play with any other guys. Everyone's gun worked great and we had no problems other then the field being a pain in the butt to us. Oh and Blazestorm thanks for only lighting me up like 3 times with that Timmy. It was fun seeing a rope of paint flying at me. At least I didn't get tripped up by anyone like Pullman did. I still wish I would have seen that guy with the Tippmann trip you so I could have avenged you. lol We still need to market that sweet ducktape pack. We can all it the AO DuckPak We'll just cover it with Burphel stickers and make a holster for the Sydarms that we are all going to get for next years NW AO get together. That would be great to have a just Sydarms game. Thanks again Joe for setting it all up and for eating that field fee and the cases of paint. You let us know if you don't get a refund and we'll have a NW AO field raising fund raiser. I can't wait to see this video now. It's at like 40%. What did you use to edit it? What did you use to export it in the end cause the Low Quality one said I need a codec and I thought I was updated on all my MS Media Player codecs. let me know so I can download it again. Later.

If it's going to be in Oregon, tell me way in advance. I'll ask for days off and make a family vacation out of it. Couldn't do what I did AND drive four hours there and back. This day almost killed me. (I must be getting old...............) Blazestorm, I know others said it before, but thanks for standing up and paying the field set up fee along with organizing the event. It was blast. If all AOers play as honorably as this group did, I'll make trips to some of the farther away meetings. Blaze, if you don't get a refund, tell me and I'll send you some cash to help out..........
