My field and such(rant[I think])

[etjoyride]

charge like a 5 or 10 dollar admission to help cover the fee for more bunkers..The players that really want to play will pay this small amount for better bunkers.

good idea, id do 10 a person, and charge some more if they want a say in your desciscion in setting up the bunkers.

I am going to see what I can do about these guys changing their minds after they play the snake. I mean, most fields have one so I wanted one too.

cool

[master_alexander]

i like the snake.

i play at my friends house and we are building a hard bunker field. the thing that sucks is that its covered with trees. grr.

after playing airball i hate hard bunkers.

i <3 snakes.

looks pretty good...Only thing i would worry aobut would be chronying and hitting the houses around you. Other than that it looks like an awesome place to play.

Alex, you can always get a chainsaw and atleast cut the trees limbs of if not even the whole tree down to a stump.

We really don't have to worry about the houses. They are not in the shooting paths of any of the bunkers. Just the restaraunt and the cars of the people who work there We're still trying to get money to buy a chrony. Right now we pick the person with the slowest gun and, by eye, have everyone shoot that slow. I know its ghetto but its better than people shooting 400 all the time.

looks like you all tihnk it thorugh pretty well then. Also, a radarchron( think thats the name its the little handheld yellow one) are supposed to work ok and can be had for about 60-70 (less if bought used)...GOOD LUCK

[master_alexander]

have everybody throw in for a chroney, then a net (just because) and the more bunkers.

i like tire bunkers.

We found a place that if we order enough paint from them they will give us 5 airball bunker. We just have to find enough people to pitch in to buy it all. Its tourney quality stuff for like 25 a case after shipping. Of course thats wholesale.

I dont know how far you are from a city, or if you have acess to a truck... BUT...


Downtown Cleveland, tiredumping is always a big problem. It costs money to get tires disposed of, so sometimes at night, you get BIG piles of tires dumped in a parking lot, down a sidestreet.


If you asked, i'm sure the person who owned the lot would be MORE THAN HAPPY if you took a truckload of tires back home.

And then another truck

And another

And another

And then you'll have a BADASS feild.

Type Buxton NC into google maps. Yeah, nothing. Even the dump barely has any tires in it.

You did a pretty good job. Now if you can go to any local Amusement parks that might have Large plastic things, or concrete places because they sometimes have these plastic containers, Farming stores so you can put an ad to offer "recycling" for Old Tractor Tires and large plastic things they sometimes store feed in. Get all of the people who chipped in and Brainstorm of large objects that are easy and light to move and are really cheap or sometimes free. We built a speedball field out of stuff we got mostly for free. Things like large plastic containers, old blown transformers from the Electric company, and some bunkers we covered in an old tarp we made from pallets. We painted them and you couldn't tell that they were made for anything else. I'll try to take a picture of it.


EDIT: You know what, My Father-in-law lives out in NC and he's in Construction. I asked him if he would keep a heads up for free stuff to hide behind and maybe some netting etc. You should hear back in the form of a PM.

You are so lucky to have such a nice field like that. Those kids who are *****ing should just leave, because clearly they dont understand how lucky they are to have such a field.

Maybe in some places. Of course it varies state to state. I know that I am personally and corporately responsible for every tire that I take off a vehicle and must account for the "proper" disposal of it. Theres department of enviromental quality paperwork literally in triplicate to assure that I properly dispose of (or resell) the same amount of tires as I buy. Well they do give me some room (I don't have to account on a one to one ratio, I am allowed like a 9 to 10 or some such) I would be hard pressed to allow someone to just take a lot of tires. I actually ran into this problem when I was considering using some for bunkers myself.
