Mark, Charlene, Maggie and I went to play at FlagRaiders (yes again ;)) and boy was it wet! So much for Charlene’s magic rain dance, it didn’t work and I want my million. π Anyway we were initially invited to play a private game by DragonHawk, we’re considered “honest players” (which is quite an honour) but because of sagging attendance it was opened up to the public.
Overall Maggie and I had a great time, my M14 mechbox didn’t suffer a failure (first time the gun lasted a whole game woo :)) however it did have a feeding problem which affects all highly upgraded M14’s. π It got very frustrating as only every second or third shot would fire, I don’t think I can fix this thing myself and I’ll probably have to get Bartek to take care of the issue as he’s a pro. Maggie ran into some bad luck as well and broke the tappet plate inside the P90, she finished up the day with the MP5K.
Oh well it does happen, it was the stock part and an upgraded tappet plate should be more durable.
Since it was Remembrance Day, at 11AM we paid respects to fallen soldiers of the various wars. To those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and veterans, thank you for fighting for our way of life.
I got plenty of kills yesterday but still felt I played rather poorly… Maggie and Charlene were a lot of fun to watch and they played great. It was a blast to watch Maggie and Charlene rush a hill with three people defending it and overall they played very well!. π I didn’t take pictures because it was raining pretty much the whole day but Norrie snapped some great pictures and videos. π
Heh you can see a video of Charlene and Maggie at the front line here, Charlene got hit but Maggie was able to stay low. Team GHOSTS usually wears Multicam but my teammates weren’t there so I wore North American Woodland. It’s a bit too dark for a fall game but it’s not a milsim and we’re just having fun. π
Perhaps it was the cold weather but I heard a lot of whining especially from experienced players yesterday. Every airsoft’er I’ve played with does not goes head hunting (if that’s the only shot though, take it) but shots to the face do happen especially in confined spaces. If you’re so worried and get upset when you get hit in the face, wear a full face mask instead of goggles. Sorry for this mini rant but it’s ruins the fun to hear all the bitching and complaining.
Thanks again Derrick and I look forward to the next game! π
