The 2005 NorCal vs. SoCal AO Day Details Thread

[Z-man]

oh man just got down in front of the machine finally. I have been unpacking, cleaning and in general unwinding from the excitement. In typical fashion I will wait and post a more complete post but I wanted to say:

Awsome event guys! I thank you all for making it happen by showing up.

Waffleman yes I did pick up some shades (but at the moment I have not dug them out)

Pictures will be available in ZIP files as soon as I can organize and separate them. We got almost 1Gig of images and 1gig downloaded 100x off my server=ZakVetter.com going down for using too much bandwidth. So I will break them up and put them on various places I can find to make it work.

Videos will be limited from me as I did not get to import anyone's footage.... Blennidae was kind enought to film using my camera for a about 40 min but I have NO footage of Saturday right now.

CableDawg- Steelrat found your cell phone eventually and entrusted it to me. I was going to make all those "special" calls on it but your rotton battery is dead. Do me a favor and PM me the model number of your charger so I can take care of that.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz............

EDIT: I actually just started organizing the images and I really think this needs to go up (I made it a bit nicer and cropped it a bit but this is one of the best images I saw off Blenn's photos!


and this one too is prety awsome

yo man glad you could make it out. You should came up and ask one of us norcal folks for some markers to use. We would of been happy to lend you one! anyway im glad your gf enjoyed herself although getting 7 on a bunker is a bit excessive.

I agree on the excessive carbon, but i think everyone was egar to try out their ramping boards with out being kicked noff the field, like in a normal situation. As for not asking you guys to borrow a gun, im a little shy in person. It was kind of my fault. didnt get to know to may people, but i still had a great time there. it was nice not to be at school or working. A little expencive though, to only play about 10 minitues for all that traviling and effort. ill try to get my photos up soon...

Oh man, I feel really bad for not getting that gun to work

Maybe next time, mandatory. What's your real name anyways? I don't think I managed to catch it in the excitement of the day.

You really should have asked, I brought 2 back ups with me and I did loan one out both days, the other sat in the case unused.

I'm surprised bubbles and crew didn't point you in my direction, they know I carry back ups.

[Target Practice]

I had 2 micromags and my Tippy/grenade launcher combo sitting on the back of my truck. All ya' gotta do is ask. Oh, and thanks to Aegis for letting me borrow the tank.

Well one of us tried to give him an ICD. but that failed. And near the end of saturday. I loaned mandatory my xmag for a few rounds. He was welcome to use it for a longer time but I guess he didn't want to.

Alright, about that bubbles thing... if you guys aren't going to let me live it down. I shall LIVE IT UP! you will have to wait and see how I do it though.

i had the worst weekend ever...i played a total of a game and a half...about 4 minutes...i had fun taking pic of everyone and my girlfriend though. will poast soon...bummer my guns didnt come/ didnt work. Zak, great job on a great event. thanks to everyone who made it possible. extra thanks to the guy trying to get is ICD working for me, and thanks to his friend for letting me borrow that e-mag for the only game i got to play. Hopefully my devilmag comes befor next years event so ill have something to shoot next year. at work right now and will post some pics when i get home.

Mandatory... Real sorry to hear that! I had a total of 8 guns (3 Angels, Y-mag, Z-mag, Classic, Bonebrake Bushy and a "The One") for two players. I would have gladly let you have your pick. Please next time don't be SHY. For that matter anyone else ever need one just ask man.... I always bring way to much stuff. I want to see EVERYONE have a good time.

F Y I - I was the "BIG" (and old (48)) guy at the White Ford Crewcab 4x4 with the unusual loading decive on the table and "Q-Loaders" on every gun. Blue jeans and a yellow DYE jersey.

PLEASE NEXT TIME JUST ASK!

B T W - I am down for either Baja or Las Vegas, it just depends when! Summer is too HOT in those places though.

Videos

I will try and get the videos shot by my nephew ASAP. I can't post them myself but when I have them I will send them to someone who can.

thnaks for the support, but dont feel bad. i had a wonderful trip. the drive was beautiful and it was nice to spend the while weekend with my girlfriend. I dont feel bad about not playing cause i played like 1-2 times a week befor i sent my gun to GAdevil, and my ankle has a torn ligament from that skateboarding injury last week, so not playing ws probably a good thing.

And near the end of saturday. I loaned mandatory my xmag for a few rounds.

thanks again for loaning me you x-mag. i was very greatfull. I think i gogged one person and popped 2 more from the snake, then took it in the chest...great game. definatly made my day. I also had a lot of fun taking photos. got lit up a few times especiallyon one photo of my girl crawling behind a grass bush in the other thread. I think that kid with a blue ramping timmy hit me in the top of the head with like 4-5 balls while i was taking a photo. my whole doorag was covered in paint. it was great.
