Pump Pandemonum 4 change of date!

According to rumor from Pyrate Jim, this is official:

From EMRs current schedule of events:
Quote:
AUG 4/5 PUMPER’S PANDEMONIUM IV: Big Game Saturday based on Capture the Flag, Mini Games all day Sunday.
PUMP MARKERS ONLY! $40 if prepaid by 6/29/07. $60 at the event. Includes CA and CO2 fills, and 500 Paintballs.
Link

No explanation has yet been provided for the change of date from July 14/15 without consultation of anyone involved in promoting the game.

I have a prior commitment for August 5 which I may not be able to move around, so there will likely need to be a new general for the blue side.

That sucks about the conflict, Rath... it won't seem like a PP if you aren't there.


As for the date change, I will be you a case of paint that it has K2's behind it. We will see July become a K2 event or, maybe Blue just decided to spend July on the boat.

Personally, I love August at EMR. It is one of their best, least muddy months of most years. Here's hopin'.



I hope you can work out your conflict, Rath. If you need, I could whip up an official looking subpoena for you...

The problem is, if enough people don't make it, there may not be a next year.

We worked hard to get people to come and make this a regular event, it'd be a shame if it slipped back into being just another private event.

That's actually a benefit for me, I planned on spending alot of July on the road, and I think the Indiana Big game is July, which I want to consider revisiting this year.

Sorry for those the change outright screws though, that sucks..

I agree with Drum, August seems to be a bit less hot than June July lately, and less rain=less humid.

It should work out ok for me,I planned for it based on the August date as it was listed on their site like that for a little while now.I didn't even remember what the old date was or that it even changed until I looked at this post.

No one posted about this over at SCP when it occurred.

Brimstone had this information:
Quote:
the switch is official, i was told it was so that the date didnt fall on the same date as skirmishes ION.
The original date was July 14/15 which I put on my calendar back in September.
