AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.

the section on Shatnerball 2 doesn't mention air fills. I would guess they will use their standard fill policy. You can check emrpaintball.com for specifics (under prices).
No problem Iogamus. :)

The Armored Fist Tiger Tank will be there. All you AO rocket guys who didn't get a chance to shoot us at Spplat 1 due to our technical difficulties will have your chance this time. We're going to be arriving Friday late morning/early afternoon. O.K. I know that the Tiger is roughly the size of a small barn as far as paintball goes but I did see one guy actually miss it with his rocket launcher in Joliet (one of the few times we got on the field).
Words of caution the cannon works safely and reliably now also the stereo is even louder.
Although there will be no shuttle silliness this year I am working on some surprises for all those who oppose us, including one weapon in particular that may be so devastating that not only am I expecting some sort of UN sanctions because of it, I have my doubts if anyone other that a true fan of WS will even survive, heh heh heh.
All of you who saw us at Joliet would do well not to underestimate the Tiger based on Spplat 1, We've had it at EMR before and we will surprise anyone who equates our performance at CPX to what is going to happen at EMR
So Tom Kaye, we will be looking for you!
Pick a color for the rocket with your name on it, Green, Purple, Orange or if you want a Howler; Red or Blue, we've got plenty
I will be out of country until just before the game so I am looking for a home for the weekend but don't have time to find one...Anyone wishing to adopt a DARKSTORM in bunkhouse, campsite or other? I'll buy the steaks.
Getting down to the wire and things are moving swiftly.
Thanks to the folks at National Paintball Supply, ALL players will be receiving the commemorative event jersey! So, your 100 bucks includes the jersey whether you made the pre-registration deadline or have yet to sign up. Whoo-hoo!
Jersey designs will be made available on shatnerball.com once they are available.
Pre-registering by August 24 ensures you receive preferential parking and camping. Get registered!!!
At this time, Diablo will be offered as the event paint. More paint options for the players are being looked into.
The paint prices will remain the same throughout the three-day event; paint purchased on Friday or Saturday can be used on Sunday, as well.
This is not a full-fledged scenario, but will have some scenario aspects, with points allocated. There will be some missions, some objectives, some flag stations to control, some random objectives the players can attempt, and a few surprises for the commanders, too.
Insertions will be every 20 minutes.
There will be a game field map supplied for all the players at the event. Bases, auxiliary bases, flag stations and objectives will be iindicated on the game map. Not gonna tell ahead of time :)
I don't have the pre-reg. numbers, but have been informed the numbers have jumped considerably this week. Preparations are being made for 1,500 players.
Players have been able to allocate in order of which team they wish to play for when they filled out the online pre-registration form at www.spplat.com. Those who registered early got their first choice assignment. Now that the pre-registration deadline of Aug. 11 has come and gone, those who register afterward will be split evenly among their second and third choices should their first choice team be filled. It has been stressed for months now for players to register early in order to get their preferred team. We will do all we can to accommodate the first requests, but we also must ensure the teams are split evenly.
It's going to be a hoot! Keep checking back to www.shatnerball.com for all the latest information.
Me and my wife are gonna be there. I'm Looking forward to meeting a whole lot of AOers. I will have some kind of banner/sign up on my camper! Come by and say Hi!
The gun is 1/8" of a game that is a FOOT long!
