[Muzikman]

Hey all, got just a few pictures from last night. I need to roundup more cameras and dump the pics, but here is what I have so far. I'll post more later today and tonight.

And remember, check out www.forceofnature.com for the latest news and pictures of the event.

Nice pics... One question... In the 9th pic labeled Jon.jpg, the guy with the AGD design on his shirt, is that a personal design or is there someplace we can order one like it?

Thanx,

The guy with the green pants and green shirt isn't blond he's got red hair. Oh before I forget that's Xzion (http://www.automags.org/forums/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=520).

[Dayspring]

There are two captions on the AGD Kids' pic page. 1) AGD Sucks and 2) Emags, one of the many guns I wouldn't want near me.

Nice huh?

I had to inform them that the Emag is one of the fastest guns available... NOOBS.

[TNS2k2]

well i got back 3 hours ago. It was a long trip home (10 hours) and it was a pleasure meeting Muzikman, Creative_Mayhem, Kaiser_Bob, Temo_Vryce, AGD_Jon, Kayle_AGD, Crazy|, Capo, Potatoboy, WonderPug and Bea. I dont think i got alot of pictures of them, maybe Jon macking some chicks ;) and Creative, but i didnt see them too much and i had to leave the Hard Rock early to walk the fields. It was nice meeting you, and i hope to meet you again some time. when i get the film developed i will post some pics.

[Potatoboy]

Well, here are the pictures I have.. I didn't take any of them myself....

Forgot I had my camera with me pretty much :(

Much thanks to Xzion for taking the pictures of the booth setup.


I resized them down from the camera's resolution, but I still left them at 1024x768.

If there is much desire for it, I will do a Lower Res version as well.

[wyn1370]

hmm, who wants to tell me what's wrong with this pic?
which one of these guns is not like the other? (http://www.synreal.net/users/tato/skyball/IMG_3278_resized.jpg)

[Load SM5]

Yea, I already commented on that last night in chat. Who let that pile of poo sit up in the AGD booth? ;)

[wyn1370]

I have no idea what type of irresponsible fool would do something like that

[Creative Mayhem]

Thanks Tater.

It was great to finally put faces and personalities to the SN here on AO. It was great meeting everyone who came to the AO party and hung around the booth. Thanks for coming to my little corner of the world, Jon, Kayle, Brad, Riotz, Clare, Curtis, Bea, Tater, Muzik, Wyn, Kaiser, TNS, Omni, Strider, Xzion, Archangel, Paintcheck/JLove, Pug, Dragoon, Spaceman, AGD Pride & Kids, and anyone else I forgot. A great time was had by everyone, I'll see everyone at IAO next. :D

YAY! Now it's famous!! it just raised the value of it. Although it doesn't matter how much CDN it would be, it would still only be "a buck fiddy":D

[Havoc_online]

I had a blast at this event! It was my first time to Canada and my first time seeing real snow:o! It was nice meeting a new bunch of AO'ers(along with seeing some old AO faces again:D) and helping out our fellow mag/warp owners from the north:) Thanks to all who helped at the booth! It really made things run a lot smoother. The booth got a lot of great comments, we probably would of sold 20+ Xmags(if had them).

Finally home! My first time in Canada, as well. As always, it was great meeting new AOer's and seeing familiar ones. I want to thank AGD pride for allowing me to play with them, you all are awesome.

The Kids played great! AGD RULES!

that picture of CM pretty much sums him all up. now all you have to do is think of him sounding like one of the McKenzie brothers

[Strider]

Hehe, I think they have you down CM. :D

BTW, why is there a * beside my name there in your post eh CM?

[Clare]

the glass floor at the CN tower

[Clare]

Havoc who was constantly fixing multiple guns at one time :D

[Clare]

the staging area

[RoadDawg]

Wow I think I'd be scared to death in that tower. Stratosphere I'm ok with, especially on the big shot but when I'm on glass I think I'd draw the line.

HI

I don't know that 'fixing' is the correct term to use in Havoc's case. :p Looks to me that he's just taking the grips off before handing the gun off to Kayle or Brad...the REAL techs. :D :p

The ONLY time I did that was with an Emag from hell that seemed like it needed a new sear assembly, I replaced it(with a new one from my parts) which did nothing. After talking it over with Brad - he recommended another "new" sear assembly - as it turned out, my "new" one was bent aswell.

Another Mini-mag seemed like either not enough air was getting to the valve or the velocity wasnt turned up high enough, I did and checked everything needed, nothing. Talked with Kayle - he pointed out the screwed up gauge that read 300 when the airline was disconnected. Simple oversight when your trying to hurry and keep the line of people waiting low AND trying to sell stuff too.

Two problems in over 50 markers worked on. Doesnt seem to bad to me. Especially when your trouble shooting manuals are in your head instead of in front of your face like the factory techs;) :eek: :o :p

so dont give me your sas mrs. piggy....:p I'll karate chop you to the moon! :p

[kevdupuis]

Deb and I had a great time and were happy to meet everyone there, and hope to see you again in the near future.

[Muzikman]

50? You worked on that many mags?? I didn't think there where that many there;)

Oh wait, you mean you worked on that one mag 45 times, I got ya;)

LOL... Just the emag from hell... it was just NASTY!! I wouldn't wish that thing on my worst enemy... but a friend like Havoc... hehe jk He did have fun with that thing though.

CM

[Havoc_online]

lol, no I worked on other guns while I worked on that kids Emag.(and I dont count markers that came back because they didnt have air at the time or something)

second day was by far the busy day.

I like tough problems, but it's different when your trying to rush through them.

[Archangel Damien]

did you get that kids emag running

[Havoc_online]

after installing a second "new" sear assy. it shot like a dream.

[Archangel Damien]

so all you needed was that break to get it fixed

[crazyray]

i wish i could have made it to it :(

[Riotz]

How come the X-Kitty breaks down all the time? Eh eh? :p

OOOOHHH Havoc, you gonna take that? Thems are fightin' werds. :D


CM

[Havoc_online]

:rolleyes: 90% of that markers issues is because of the detents. I barely got my hands on rebuildable detents at skyball.

[Clare]

Yep, I had lots of problems with my previous ball detent..hopefully the rebuildable ball detent will solve the issues that I had.

[Load SM5]

What was the issue with the detent. I had problems with my HALO pushing really small bore sized paint past the one I had, and causing breaks. I switched to a slightly larger paint and it was fine.

[Clare]

With a revvy, it would double feed and occasionally had some breaks.

[Load SM5]

What did you replace them with with? I guess I need a stiffer detent.

[Clare]

I had the wdp bullet style detent and now switched it out with a cobra rebuildable. There still may be a need for fine tuning on the spring, since we haven't been able to test it out since skyball, but this should end up solving the problem.

[Load SM5]

Cool, I ordered some from Cobra a few days ago. Thanks for the help.
