NorCal AO Day#4 T.A.G.

ZAust you can use one of my guns. You have a preference? Sadly the X-Mag is many moons away but you can use either the warped Classic RT (for a lefty) or my light weight RTPro will all the aluminum stuff.

Holy crap, SPS16 is totally out of it! Playing at SCP? We've got a pledge to fulfill, and Z-man has a reputation to live up to. If we get anything less than personal guppy caddies, theres gonna be hell to pay.

So is saturday good? I need to firm it up with those-who-claim-to-want-to-play-but-never-actually-show-up.

jeez chris, and besides, if we didnt play at tag we would play at extrreme. god. anyone heard from carbon?

But there is no sense in making plan to go somewhere else when we are planning to go to T.A.G. One event at a time. I have a hard enough time convincing you guys that T.A.G. is worthy of your presence and now that I have a few advocate (WMUAHAHAHAAHhhahha...) I don't plan on losing the momentum.

Now on a side note I had forgot about this little loophole. T.A.G. has a canned food drive that they have been running for sometime now. If you bring in 10 cans of food, you get $20 off admission. Now the catch is, you have to buy their paint if you do the cans thing. They are selling the Blaze for $60 a case (that with tax and all that).

So that is another option. I called Breakout to ask what kind of paint they had but sadly they did not have white fill currently. So I will just keep my eyes open here.

could we just buy our own paint, bring in cans and pay admission? what is admission anyways if you get 20 bucks off?

Sorry.

His excuse for the higher cost in general is that you do get more games.

The format is setup like this. The ref takes you out to a field, splits the teams and plays 1 game. Then teams switch sides and you play again (so save enough from the first game to play the second.). Then we go back for a few minutes and as soon as we are ready we go out to another field for 2 games.

AT MINIMUM you end up with about 20 games total from 9am-4pm and usually more like 22-24 so Roland likes to say you are paying less per games overall then at say, SCP or Bear Creek.

So currently i looks like (barring some deal elsewhere) you have 2 options.

1). Pay $45 for all day admission with the all day airpass (and free hotdogs) and BYOP (White fill ONLY).

2). Pay $25 all day admission and airpass and pay $60 per case of paint.

3). (probably not even an option) we get enough people for a private group and get a groups discount (probably like $5-10 per person) we would need AT LEAST 13 people and I would have too call ahead and reserve it. There are fees for not showing up in that case too

[LittlePaintballBoy]

indeed. i held it last night. very light, very nice.

[Z-man]

PICTS!! PICTS!!!

[Steelrat]

So is is Saturday? I needs to know :)

Im looking forward to seeing that new mech marker. I must say I was impressed my Mike's sweet mag that I used this past Saturday. There were only a few times that I missed the ability to fire off a rapid string of shots. And it felt very solid and smooth. Its so difficult to choose a backup marker! Decisions, decisions...

[Z-man]

As far as I am concerend it is Saturday the 27th of September.

What say you we just say, "that's what the date is" and see if there is any public outcry? If so, we laugh evil laughs of pure evil and go anyway.
