I registered my team for this "Newbie" tournament. Did anyone go to last years? Or have they been to the Rogue ProShop field? If so, How is it? Anyone else goin?

Long ways from NY there..

Rogue is one of the 2 feilds I play at most frequently. It is a very good feild. The owner is a great guy. The course at the shop is great, I played a tourney in it less than a month ago. I wasn't Newbie-enough to play last year, but everyone that played had a blast, as the year before.

If you havn't, which you probably have since you know about the tourney, go to www.mrpl.org

One more thing I think you forgot to add. Are you playing on Saturday or Sunday? Its split up into two days and two tournaments so to speak (due to the amount of teams entering).

Oh yeah, sorry about that. I'm playing on saturday. Is it really competitive? Or are there like a few really good teams and then a lot of only decent teams?

Keep in mind this is a tournament for players who have competed in 2 tournaments or less. For most of the players it will be their first tournament, so dont expect alot of tough competition.

It will most likely be a friendly tournament aimed on getting more teams started and into the tournament scene.

Im sure Rogue and the MRPL will do a great job making this tournament a successfull and worth while one for all the teams playing in it.

Hey Will and Sinnet,

HAH present... That welt is already gone somehow. Thanks for the oring by the way,(which was lost when my on/off shot out at me) even though my mag was extremely fun to shoot without it (didnt wanna mess the sear and bolt up). I rigged it up again and tried it with paint and a halo A this morning but it wouldn't feed it fast enough. I think i figured out Butterfingers secret to the 25bps sweetspotting...:D

Unfortunately neither Will or Sinnet were there like they said they would be though.:confused:

sinnet, unfortunately, was grounded friday night for the weekend. His mom wouldn't listen to reason, or give over the car keys at any cost. Sinnet is really, really pissed off right now... Sinnet isn't supposed to be on the computer, either, so he's going to go now.

Thats quick...maybe you're superhuman? No prob w/ the O-ring though

You really think we did good though? It was our first tourney but still...4th place is bad

You guys did do good for a first tournament. Look at some of the other teams you beat whos first tournament it was also... some of them had no idea what they were doing, which is to be expected.

And your not supposed to say you placed 4th overall. 2nd in your division sounds much better :D

Didn't see me..
I drove by, I shoulda stopped by If I knew it was the mellow yellow. I was wondering why so many people where there.

Well sounds like you had a good time, looks like it had a big turnout.

Yup, 43 teams between the two days of play (I think half of them had their parents with them). I think there was around 200 games played.
(The 200 games go by alot slower when your scoring them and not playing :()
