D-day 2003

[Tiberius]

D-day 2003 was my first time there and although it was very enjoyable I was shocked of the lack of control there. I have sympathy considering 2x the people showed up that they expected but some things were uncalled for. No offense to the germans at d-day but I saw a lot of cheating going unchecked. Im sure the allies were to but i heard the germans were worst. I hope they restrict entries this time because there were just to many people. Feel free to comment but reframe from the flaming plz.

Some of the things i noticed:
1. cranking up the fps after chronoing.
2. Putting paint of dry ice.
3. not going out after getting hit.
4. i even saw a ref wipe off a german who got hit.

When paint is blasting the bark off the trees something seems wrong.

Which D-Day scenario game are you talking about, the one in Oklahoma or at Skirmish in PA? I was at the one at Skirmish last year with a buddy, and we had a great time.

[Tiberius]

The one in Wyandotte, Oklahoma.

What's the turnout like in the OK game? At the PA game they draw about 2,000. All in all, I think the scenario runs pretty smoothly at Skirmish, with a good amount of smaller objectives and missions to keep things interesting. The paint could be cheaper, though.

My favorite part was the storming of beach at Normany: I was a German, hunkered down in my bunker, unloading hopper after hopper at the surging waves of Allied troops...

The germans won surprise surprise BTW they also had more than 2x the tanks and where were all the antitank weapons? Germans. Im not being biased when I say this there cheating was totally unacceptable.

Also I hope the Germans feel sorry for the kid whose lens they cracked open with theyre 300 fps dry iced paintballs.

[chasden]

Dry ice paintballs?

[Tiberius]

They put their paint and froze it in dry ice. Dont ask what it feels like to get hit by one

[Tiberius]

Heres a hint about what it feels like. Think about a 300 fps marble.

Those people should be arrested, and charged with assult. That could probably crack someone skull easily, damn scumbags. Learn to control yourself you worthless unless watched like chilren society (you know who you are ofcourse, meaning not all of you guyz hehe). This is something nobody should have to deal with, and after dwelling on what excatly that is I lose it.


Keep it up and all the fat mommies are gona gang up on paintball like they did everything else, while there manly sons come back from soccer, you know how it works political people in da house.

I guess they made good nazis.

they're restricting it to 3,000 people max this year, and after a certain date, registration will be jacked up to $100. This is to encourage preregistration so that they'll be prepared for the # of people there this year.


Also, from what I hear, the allies will have a special surprise for the Germans. The Allies (which is who I'll be playing for) do NOT intend to let the Germans even get CLOSE to a victory this year. Also, the Germans will find the base security in the Allied base to be as tight as their own during the night game. The French Resistance is tired of having their side lose, and is prepared to win at all (non-cheating) costs. The allies intend to win fair and square this year with no cheating .
