    Post  matt.chopper Tue Nov 15, 2011 10:54 am

    We'll hit the north-west suburbs again.

    When:
    •Date: Sunday 20th November
    •Time: 10:00am - 3:30pm

    Where:
    •Location: Greenvale Primary School, Greenvale
    •Street: Bradford Ave, just off Greenvale Dr
    •Meeting Place: Bradford St off street parking, just off Greenvale Dr

    What to Bring:
    •appropriate blasters and equipment (primaries, secondaries, shields etc.)
    •darts (suggested amount is 150+) and other munitions (eg. grenades)
    •money for trading and buying food/drink
    •safety eyewear - PLEASE PROVIDE YOUR OWN, NO PROTECTION NO PLAY!
    •appropriate clothing
    •food/drink if you're not buying anything

    Game Modes:
    •FFL
    •FFP
    •TDM
    •E-peen
    •Advance Wars with FFP classes (maybe)

    Rules:
    •No realistic looking blasters are to be used. Don't even think about rocking up with black blasters.
    •No snap caps or heavies (splitshot 0 or larger for the ill-informed); we're on school property and I'm not going to live with having windows break during the war.
    •No cheating, if the ref calls a hit just accept you were hit and go and respawn. Arguing the point with the ref will cost you an extra life.
    •No barrel tapping; go find yourself a foam bayonet if you feel compelled to go melee with your blaster.
    •Everyone is responsible for their own equipment. MARK YOUR CLIPS, BLASTERS AND DARTS and anything that is yours in general if you expect to get it back at the end of the day. Any unmarked stock darts found at the end of the day will be kept by me.
    •No bullying; it's rather self-explanatory. I have plenty of ways to solve bullying should I see any signs of it (don't tempt me)...
    •Everyone must dart sweep especially given that we're on school property; anyone found just standing around and not helping out will be banned from all Melbourne wars (the other organisers support this rule, so watch out).

    Schedule (roughly)
    •Meeting
    •Tour
    •FFL - light warm up elimination
    •FFP - school elimination
    •lunch and rest
    •E-peen - steal the package
    •E-peen - scenario defend the base (attackers vs. defenders)
    •E-peen - border patrol
    •Final wrap up, pack up, and political discussion

    Attendee List:

    Confirmed
    •Silent Scope
    •KingCam
    •matt.chopper + 1
    •whichgrep + Brunius
    •TooBz
    •chiiia

    The location has been chosen after ringing up the school, receiving all the info I need. This war is not in breech of the "Summary Offences Act 1966 - Section 9".

    Before the war is started, I will conduct a tour of our play areas. Be mindful as to where you shoot as we don't want darts shot in areas where it's fenced off otherwise the school may think twice about conducting investigations when they find left over darts.

    Most of the event's focus will revolve around simple elimination around the schools in a more war engage-frenzy environment. I'd advise that you pack blasters that will compliment both intermediate ranges (85>') and close quarter ranges (<50') as there will be moments where both those situations will arise. As you may have read, E-peen will make up the majority of the rounds as the field encourages a lot of more advanced playstyle and more modified goods. It is simply a guideline to denote that anything goes; not necessarily the need to have everyone use 160>' rape cannons.

    Regarding facilities: Available in the area are the Greenvale shops where everything from a Coles, charcoal chicken place, Subway, and toilets are available within the typical 15min walk (similar to the walking distance for fish 'n chips in Wattle Park). If anyone's up for it, I can arrange for doing a pizza run in Tullamarine.
    Please be mindful of your bladders as the toilets are a little way out of vicinity (go on, make sure you go to the toilet before warring). Apart from that, it's the same procedures as all the other wars. We do a run down, we tour, war, eat and rest, and war again before a final recap. I will have a lot to discuss regarding the political side of issues too so try to be as engaging as possible once those discussions take place.

    May I also mention of the numerous requests to have friends come along: YES BRING AS MANY FRIENDS AS YOU WISH, I DON'T REALLY MIND! Just be sure to disclose in this thread so that we can all try to cater for any additional people that may want to come; seriously though don't be hesitant.

    Stay tuned for more updates.

    I suggest you attend this one guys, otherwise it'll be the death of Melbourne nerfing as we speak.

    This is my "do-or-die" event where this war will decide whether the scene is worth salvaging from my absence. I cannot stress how kickass the location is, a friggin' school of all places.

    GET TO IT ALREADY! THIS IS A CALL TO ARMS EVENT!

    C'mon guys! I'm pretty sure there are way more Melbourne Nerfers on here. Recently, there's been alot of VIC / Melb people joining. Get off your chairs, and go have some fun!

    This is a mutherfukn' school man! You should take advantage of it because we're not allowed here in QLD to even go in and participate in any Nerf Wars.

    I would go to every war if I could but they're all just to far out west for me. It's like an hour drive.

    You fool, Greenvale is a north-west suburb. For you, are you telling me that a drive up the M80 freeway is too much because this is a far west any Melbourne war is going to get?

    I need more people, get your gear and acts together becuase these Melbourne wars don't happen often.

    What?! Point Cook is on the west-side. Seriously, I think you're making up poor excuses not to attend a war at this stage.

    No I don't, and quite frankly I have no patience to deal with people who don't show enough commitment. kthnxby

    I'm going to start PMing various members here to get the numbers rolling because I'm quite distressed how struggling the Melbourne community is at the moment. Perhaps you people forgot that we're in a school for a battleground.

    Hi,

    Just got Silent Scope's PM. Sorry can't make it. Family is building a house out in Ballarat (so they are all out there) and I'm still a few months off my P's so weekends are a no-go (unless it in reasonable public transport distance and then lugging Nerf guns on a train...).

    I hope that you get some more people, I mean maybe it's just me but an hour is nothing. It takes that long to get into the CBD on a bad day.

    Anyhow good luck for Sunday.

    Cheers,

    I was just thinking; you're only 10 mins away from me. How about I pick you up from your joint? Don't worry, I know Airport West very well (I used to live there).

    We had an okay day. The location is very suitable for scenario-based gametypes. The only gripe I have is the one problem I felt was going to occur: attendee numbers. So, I want to say thanks to those who took the initiative to drive as far as an hour and half to get to Greenvale. And to those who didn't answer my PMs especially those who lived within the vicinity, I have no motivation to take any wars to the westside anytime soon as it's plain and simply dead this side. A lack of commitment is definitely evident from the efforts I took to get this initiative rolling, considering.

    Eastside from now on, kthnxby...

    Sorry internet was down over the weekend (swapping ISP's the ISP I was leaving made it as hard as they possibly could to make the swap) so I didn't get you're reply until now. Next time it sounds like an option, thanks for the offer.

    Just read your latest reply as I was typing this. I'm not sure but maybe one reason that the numbers were down is because it is exam time (not just schools but TAFE's etc. too).

    Sorry again for the miss sounds like it was fun.
