Lords of War: Blood Diamonds (my comments in main post)

[Nomad]

Awesome game, I loved the way that the spawns were layed out. It made it easy to find someone to go exchange plastic with. Thanks to Rick and all of the admins for putting this on. If there's a part two ill be there for sure.

[Bigfoot]

Good game. The first round was definitely the highlight of the year for me.

[Wombat Six]

Good game. No shortage of opportunities to exchange plastic. Weather was just right, gun behaved all day, looking forward to part two. Anybody who missed out because of the threat of rain: joke's on you.

Never did get a chance to engage any of the game mechanics outside of a single control point turnover at the end of round two, but that's not why I came out, so no loss there. Spent most of the day just running toward the sound of gunfire.

Was sort of entertaining to get an artillery strike called on me and the other gentleman in the village on the second floor. Thinking it's time to give into the dark side and go bolt-action.

Damn I'm sore. Flat fields cause you to run more, thus tiring you out more. Time to go cut the 20+ notches into my bolt stock. Damn I love that rifle.

Side note: Death rags death rags death rags. If you don't have one, don't stand around on the field after you're shot. It just means you'll get shot again.

[Strikerz]

And to everyone on Mehdi who got the Hamas headbands from me, thank you. It made the game a lot more immersive seeing arabic on your foreheads. :P (I show up to games to play dress up)

Anything to fulfill your weird fetishes Darius :P.

All the EDG that rushed the flag at the end of round 1, that was cool. I was just like "oh...****" and opened up, but I don't even think I managed one kill before like 5 people had opened up on me. That was pretty sick to watch. I am jealous I didn't get to take part in any awesome rushes like that...all the ones I tried to start got bogged down when everyone else decided to wimp out on me.

Believe i was in that

On that note as well, please yell or say something if your hit. I must have shot 5 people today that were hit, but didn't say anything and just stood up with their gun in the air. I personally don't like getting hit after I'm already out which is why I yell "HIT HIT HIT" so its clear that I'm out.

Also, if your dead, please don't stand around in a live fire area and BS with your buddies. Its a good way to get shot for no reason.


Other than that, good times today. Could have been better, but hopefully the feedback given to Rick will improve the next one.

[Ivan Daylovich™]

Cool.

When you're hit, don't just turn around, yell it. Yell it like your balls are exploding.

[KA-BAR]

mmmmm i got more saftey kills then headshots today.

ash is off my 2010 hit list and that is a good thing.

[Voodoo Man]

Great game.

I ran into quite a few people attempting to hack in the first round and it totally sucked the fun out of it. Guys, its a game. I know everyone by name that I saw do it as well, and thats just disappointing to me. But its not surprising, it happens every game.

Thanks EDG for putting up a hard fight though.

[Seagreen]

T'was fun. It was good to hang out with those that I have not in a long time.

Interesting field.

. Anybody who missed out because of the threat of rain: joke's on you.

Amen to that!

[Ivan Daylovich™]

I saw relatively low cheating, but I heard lots of people complaining about it. To be fair though I was using a shotgun and got very close so in those situations there was no question.

Mehdi, Thanks for putting up an excellent fight. I underestimated you, and overestimated EDG.

[CalvinB]

Great game.

SOTA was a real thorn in our balls for the second half. Made for really exciting game play. Sadly the only hacking I saw first hand was a few people on our team who I've never seen before. Had a blast and really had to earn every inch of ground, sometimes twice.

P.S. Terry I have your propane and adapter, I'll bring it next weekend.

[Zeta Crossfire]

Good game overall, a few more admins next game would be great. I underestimated Mehdi good job guys.

[Pharaoh 6]

Great game Riddick! Was worth the drive down. We had some great moments that will be talked about for months to come. It's great to meet new people everytime (Riddick, Braddock, Pacman (thanks for taking a beating with all the Navy Jokes. You're still a brother-in-arms.), mini-marine, and any others I missed.

Feedback:
1. Everyone should have a red death rag. If you don't you're wrong.
2. The field would have been more interesting if it had been split north side and south side and we spent the day fighting up and down the paved street of the town.

We look forward to more events to come.
