Paintball

I came up from Florida last year for PP, and two friends are driving up this year for Pump Castle.

Dude, it'll only be Castle if we get the pre-regs.
And right now, the word is not getting around that I've seen.
At least on most of the message boards I hang around on.

It will rely on us, the players.
We need to distribute this, if we want it to happen we can't rely on advertising unless we're the ones advertising it.

Just like Pandemonium in the past, if we want patches it's up to one of US to have them made.
If we want the people to come, it's up to all of US to bring them.
and get them to pay up front...

Very much looking forward to this, my first EMR event.

MUST CONVINCE NINJA DAVE TO DEFEND!!!!

Pirate Jim is right. We need to get the word out. I won't pre reg till march 17th cause I have a big game on the 10th, but the 17th I'll be all over it. We need people. I don't want to start the proverbial Shiz storm but we need think about allowing pistol player's. I'm talking Semi auto pistols. If we allow that we could pull in a few more I'm sure. I know, I know. You can't please everyone and there are those who don't want pistols in pump only game's. Personally I don't give a flying poop. They have 7 or 8 shot's before a reload and maybe 5 or 6 clip's. My T2 is faster on A/T. I'll say no more as my opinion stands, I'm just thinking the Pump and Pistol guy's need to stick together.

And the first ditz who roll's up with a 3 oz tank and a 50 round hopper on a T8 or TipX, we let take a golf cart ride with MAr....

Registered for Defense. I may have to turn one of the random autocockers I have lying around into an autotriggered beast.

They didn't.
And they had better than 4:1, closer to 7:1 by the numbers.
What can I say say? Attacking a castle full of pump players is suicide unless you have overwhelming odds...

Yeah I remember that game, helped get people sign up and get that organized.

As far as I know, the 50 defenders spots are already filled up. That right there is 1/4 of the way to the 200 needed for castle.

I agree though, a lot of people still don't know about this. I posted on EMR's Facebook page about making an events page. We need to do little things like that to get a few here and there.

Defender spots are still available per an e-mail from Blue today.
