[cphilip]

hehe i was just busting your butt! you don't have to explain it to me, i think i can trust your judgement lol

I knew that.... but I figured in case anyone else had some issues I would nip it in the bud...

Its been called to my attention that I put Pubic instead of Public up there in the title... um... well... not certain it was Freudian or not!

If anyone is coming from Eastern VA(VA Beach, Norfolk, Newport News, Yorktown, etc), and wouldn't mind giving an AOer a ride....give me a PM. I'd love to go. Maybe Team Sex Monkeys can have a 1 month reunion.

Not gonna be able to make it, but I'm glad to hear that everything got worked out and the event's still going to happen. :) Rock on AO!!

Well, actually.... I'll be in Newport News on Saturday morning for a college visit, that's like 2 hours in the right direction. Wonder if I'd be able to make it all the way down for Sunday? I'm gonna mess around with that, see what I can work out!! :)

[Python14]

wait, bob, where will you be visiting?

[BobTheCow]

CNU, for an open house/tour thingy.

**edit** I'm an idiot, just remembered we talked about this last night.

[Kevmaster]

I hopes yall have fun....I'll be there in spirit

I hate that this was planned so late and "stapled" to an existing event....

Aside from my griping,

This is a worthy event (TFT specifically) and totally worth going to for both the charity and the field. Regulators Outpost is a great place. Many folks I run with regularly play there. It will be an awesome event.

Well actually TAG and I talked about this last fall at SEAO day II but there were already so many events around this time at Regulators it was concluded it would have to be "stapled" as you put it to happen there. And in the past regulators has come each and every time up here to Clemson. And even brought us a Airball field one year. So its was time for payback. So its all good I figure. We realized it would end up being stapled no matter what we wanted. And I don't really have any problem with that. I mean it increases exposure for AGD and AO to be noticed in a stapled event. And even had I had it in Clemson this year it was going to have to be stapled (or incorporated in some way) to something at the field I wanted. They also had a scenario planned around the dates I needed. So its an inevitability it will be sometimes. Maybe not every time if we can help it. But its also ALWAYS been a charity event here. For the Clemson Paintball club. So its not outside of our mission to also help some kids. However we are planning some seperate things for AO members. But in this area this time of the year sometimes it will just be the way it is. No ones trying to say its not. So I don't want to confuse anyone or mislead anyone. It is a marriage of things that worked out. Toms is going to be there and this gets our last meeting of the year a good place were he can kill two or three birds with one stone. Make sense. I didn't take what you said as griping. I do however want to speak to that slant on it. And I don't have any problem with anyone assuming that because its true in a way. And no ones trying to hide that nor do we have any reason to. Plain and simple we are tagging to a good event in a place we need to go and for good reasons. A logical thing to do.

Again I am seeing things like "canceled and such". There was never any event to cancel. No event was ever announced. People just assumed things. And if you want something done earlier... do it yourself! And trust me if you want to do it... I will gladdly and fully assist you. I mean that.

Glad you coming. Want to do some mini AO bike rally stuff around this? If I can I will drag my bike down.

Cphil,

I feel that was pretty well said. Given the history behind the situation it does make sense to do it at Regulators. It also make sense in a marketing and PR way to tie to a charity working towards such a great end. Helping kids is always wonderful. Can't hurt in the scenario market push to make a strong showing at such a big seasonal event either.

As far as the mini rally goes....

My Harley is down for the count for the moment. The last ride I went on , an unseen piece of metal in the road flipped up and cut my drive belt. Given the time of year , and the fact that I can use those repair funds towards the upcoming scenario season ( I only play woodsball/scenarios in cool weather), I am waiting until late winter to repair it.
