Ontarioians for Fall Conquest!

Alright, since I've got loads of interest, let's see if we can't get together some organized convoys of Ontario players for Fall Conquest. For those that aren't familiar with Conquest, check this out: Fall Conquesst.

The drive from the Toronto area is about 5-6 hours by Googlemaps, so our best bet would be to leave early on Friday, September 26th, get there late afternoon/evening, and be ready for Saturday morning, then come back late Sunday. We'd be getting in late, likely though, so I'd recommend we have 2 seperate groups-one for those who can't afford to miss Monday, and those who can (IE, university students and everybody else. )

Lodging: 15-man bunkhouses need a $50 refundable deposit, and camping is free. So, staying isn't a problem. Just bring an air mattress, sleeping bag and whatever tents we need, if we don't go bunkhouse.

Transportation: We've got a few ways about it. Personally, I think the best idea is to congregate in Niagara Falls, picking up anybody who needs a ride on the way. Another idea would be to have one group coming from Toronto and passing through Niagara and another starting around London and coming down through Windsor, since getting up to Niagara is kind of out of the way for those of us in the lower tip. As for vehicles, we can beg, borrow, bring or rent. That all depends on what people can bring.

Cost: $35 for Saturday only, $50 for the whole weekend. So, not a big cost. Paint comes out to $85/case. Most people say you can get by on one case for the weekend, but budget accordingly for your playstyle.

Why should you come? 'Cause all the awesome people are going to be there! Castle seems to be the unofficial stomping grounds of the MCB crowd, and you get a hell of a turnout overall-usually around 2000 players in a fierce battle over Castle Aarrggh. Good times all around. And, for those of age, we have booze! (Responsibly, of course, drunk paintball isn't a good idea.)

So, if you're interested, post up. I know Fall Castle is still a ways off (Hell, Spring Conquest is next weekend), but since this'll be a major trip for a lot of us, it doesn't hurt to get all our metaphorical poop in a group this early.

I'll probably go, just depends on the work schedule. I can meet up in Niagara Falls no problem - just name the place.

I need to clear away a few things first before I can make the call about going, but would you have any objection to transporting a wayward Newfie if I can get to Ontario?

No! No Newfies allowed! Take off, hoser!

Yeah, if you find yourself on this side, we'll make sure you've got a seat. Hell, technically I'm not an Ontario resident either.

Assuming my schedule is clear (which I think it is), I'm so down, it's not even funny.
