Official AO-MidAtl Meet After Thread

[Xyxyll]

What a day! Couldn't have started out better (being my 18th birthday and all), but this event went off great! The weather was perfect... I mean perfect. Great temperature, comfortable breeze, sunny sky. The field was superb! We had a great showing, 21 people registered, and we had a BLAST. Ron Stern stopped by the group and played a few games with us too. It was just an incredible day of paintball.

I'd like to give a big thanks to Splatbrothers for having us. Your field is great and the pricing for the event was unbelievable.

Thecavemankevin, it was great playing with you/against you. Thanks A LOT for letting me use your battery pack and yellow pin. Never would have known what version my emag is w/o it, lol (v1.35 for any of you that placed bets). You did a great job organizing the event. So when's AO-MidAtl 2?

Another big thanks out to all those that donated prizes for the mini-tourny.

And last but not least, a huge thank you to all of you that showed up and made this such an awesome AO-Day.

A few pictures to tie you down for a little while.

haha. keep the pics coming! It'll be funny to see all the pics of Empyreal Rogue....with a different marker in each one. I shouldn't laugh though, his day sucked. Bleh, more pics!

[BobTheCow]

Playing with a tractor, hahaha... and I PROMISE I won't miss the next one. 3rd time's a charm, right?

[Empyreal Rogue]

haha. keep the pics coming! It'll be funny to see all the pics of Empyreal Rogue....with a different marker in each one. I shouldn't laugh though, his day sucked. Bleh, more pics!

It sure did. But yeah, I really did have a different marker in every game I played. I was a true gun whore today. :X

I've got some pictures too (22, heehee) and I think Frag's going to post them all since he has Cable and a larger bandwidth on his server. I have some good ones too.

A couple more before the tourny.


Let the games begin!




Spool field was awesome!

[jwalker87]

w00t! But look on the bright side, Rogue; at least this finally gives you an excuse to get your DevilMag.

And Ho, I e-mailed the website I bought my Stiffi from about returning it, so I'll let you know if I want yours as soon as they get back to me. It shot well when I was playing with it.

[thecavemankevin]

guys, it was my pleasure to organize it and come the first part of 2k5 look out for the next one!

congrates to team sex monkeys for taking 1st in the 3 man mini tourney

I'll get the Shocker-Cam vids up tonight

[Major Ho]

ah HA HA HA HA... You cant see it the vids but a few balls whizzed by the camera literally inches from my head and the cam. If you listen carefully you can hear me squeel. And then the last part was a camera/barrel tag attempt

[phantomhitman]

this ao day was great. the people were all nice as well as the weather. my gun on the other hand..... paint wasnt too nice my cocker either, or my halo, but i lived. but it fixed itself and i ended up having fun. thanks goes out to kevin for organizing this event as well as the 3 man tourney. thank you python (noah) for jumping in with us on team sex monkeys to win the 3 man mini tourney
i appreciate all the planning and contacting you did kevin, i know it is a big task to set one of these up.

then there is the one they call ho. we had a blast saturday night, even though our detour down the one way street of a ghetto and almost getting shot and run over by cars wasnt what i had in mind. then there is the "movie theater" that never existed i do not think. but the drunken halo made up for that. we had a great time with you and your crew, as well as jwalker and rogue that stopped through that night.

overall we had a great time and we will def be out for the next event. if there is another 3 man tourney i am calling the 2 other devilmags for my team thanks again everyone!!!

[phantomhitman]

oh yeah, everyone tell ho happy birthday!!! he celebrated his 23 birthday i believe at the spanish restaurant We have to get the pic of him in the sombrero you had to be there to see this, more saturday night madness

[thecavemankevin]

wached the vid...pretty cool stuff. only thing is i don't remeber "ho Vision"

were you just running with the camera in your hands or was it taped to you gogs or something? My head hurts after watching that part.....but very cool non the less.

[phantomhitman]

ho vision was great, you have to love how he slams into the wall on the spool field.
what is the name of the guy who took pics of the 3 man tourney? im dying to see those. frag is also going to upload pics from rogues camera i think. i have to get ahold of pat to get his pics to upload.

[JimInVA]

I took the tourney pics. Xyxyll will be adding more of those later this evening.

My thanks to all! It was an outstanding day of play - awesome field, excellent hosts (Ron & Don) & superb weather. What really made this day shine was not the weather or the field... but was due to those in attendance. I, along with other members of our scenario team (my son Jim, Trapper Davis and John Clark), were all made to feel welcomed. THANKS AOVA!

And a special thanks to thecavemankevin for his efforts; without which, this event would never have happened.

And Major Ho... again, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You're okay in my book!

Jim

[DarkRipper]

I had a great time, it was a priviledge to meet so many honest and skilled paintballers. I'm looking forward to the next AOVA day.

Bring on the tourny photos, Jim!

If you need hosting, I'll host them for you or put them on jayloo.com
