AO-WI: PB Sam's BIG GAME 1 April 30 / May 1

[MicroMiniMe]

OK, so don't hold it against me, but I may be able to crash this event from Minnesota... I'm talking my wife into a "trip to see her grandmother" in Kenosha. Put me as a "maybe" until further notice.

Hey It'would be great even if you can just make the Saturday game. I think they boot us out at 4:30 so you'd still have the evening to visit or drive home. Field opens at 6am, starts at 9ish.

Minimagjim, one of the parking lots USED to be a campground, it is still chilly that time of year, the website has some local hotels or just bug AutomagRT1483 for actual camping grounds. I don't know if I could take the pain of sleeping on the ground after a full day.

Olive Garden sounds good to me on Friday night. I'll go there then I'll probably head over to McAuliffe's pub for one or two, depending on the time. When are you guys getting in? One problem with going there, Weekends equal no reservations. As far as camping goes, I shall look into it. I can point you in the direction of some good hotels too. I just have to do a little searching.

I think we would be driving down on Friday, I can see if I can get a pass for dinner at OG... I should be able to get away for the day for paintball, I would probably leave Kenosha around 6, get there around 7 and then have some time to setup...I don't know why but it always takes me longer to get ready, probably due to the amount of "stuff". The sticking point may be having to "borrow" an automobile...I will see if I can work out the logistics soon...

HHGTTG opens that Friday. There is always a good movie that weekend.

Most will get to Racine for check-in around 6pm if taking 1/2 day off or leaving at a leisurely pace/sleeping in. I might be in town by 3 or so if alone.
Olive Garden would sound very good after a 6 hour drive. Is it still too packed at 7/7:30 to get seated quickly if others were shooting for a 9 o'clock movie?

Hex, you'll have to translate for me, my geekspeak is down. HHGTTG?

/bows head in shame.

[Hexis]

You better bow that head in ultimate shame. I'll bet you don't even know where your towel is.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Durrrr!

so long and thanks for all the fish

/regain some geekdome just not current, heck, haven't even seen the SW III trailer

[MedicDVG]

He ain't no Frood...
Anyplace to get a good Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster??

This being my fisrt scenario type game, what should I budget in terms of paint use? Mind you I will be using my RT/Pro or the ION.. Would a case each day be realisitic, or should I plan for more? Also what about air fills? Do you have to buy an all day ticket for fills or is it by each time you fill? PB Sam's Website is a little vauge.

Is there a theme to the scenario (i.e ALien vs. preditor, Allies and Axis) or is it just a big Us/Them type of battle?

My plans would be to get there early friday eve, so Olive Garden and HHGTTG would be a great warmup.. that and a few PGGB's at the RATEOTU (Galaxy speak is going to get crazy that weekend)...

it is just an all out battle. attack their fort defend yours. pretty basic but hella fun

[MicroMiniMe]

Uh, 2 cases for the weekend should be good. If you go heavy day one, day two is sometimes slower, less people.

Its just 45 minute (or so) games of white vs. blue capture the flag. You have to capture opposing teams starting castle and keep controll of your own to end the game. Medic rules, two non torso wounds, anything else/more and your out, no more medic tape. Refs do encourage lieing about team color as long as the color armband is clearly visible, as well as touch (RAMBO) eliminations if you are super close rather than blasting someone in the back.

Air is now by a NPS delivered trailer, and like $10 for all weekend. There is grill food on location too, nicely priced. AutomagRT might bring a grill if we bribe him. No word yet on pie.

[sneakyhacker420]

pie? we need to revamp pie revolution... or atleast have another pie orgy like we did way back when


i will HOPEFULLY be coming if ym dad can take off of work to drive me up there (not that far, but poor me has no liscense or car yet


i'll probably bring my revenge LE or viking to it... most likely the revenge, its still plenty friggin' fast if you're seen the video of me shooting it, its efficent, and has never given me any crap (viking has small leak from the valve... damnit! - maybe AKA can tech it within 2 weeks)

Well some have met before and others have just been going year after year and would just recognize each other most likely. Everyone would probably know or at the least recognize Loud
Tim or any of the Pride/Butterscotch Yo guys. There's enough time to plan, get a big table if enough seem interested, otherwise just meet up in the bar area first?

[arsonpaintball06]

i havent really been to one b4 so only person who knows me is trevor

[arsonpaintball06]

Heres my new mag ill be bringin
