When the pics going online? I don't think I was in any of them, since I only played for like 20 minutes, but I can still oogle them as they are Airsoft related.
And suggestions:
pre-plan and mark all spawn points and roads.
Maybe a pre-mission briefing back at the house with a large overhead picture of the area (you can even guesstimate distances and size and draw the map with a marker on butcher paper)
and make sure everyone knows who is on which team, where the spawn points are (possibly mark those with neon engineer tape or bright colors),
maybe clear some of the brush out in some areas, so there are roads, or a more defined set of areas, instead of one large wooded area (which is difficult for command and control)
Even though it's not a full fledged OP, you can do prepay or more importantly, have people tell you what team they are on and put that on the main first page of the OP so you can sort of see who is coming and let people better plan to go on a set team and bring the correct camouflage, so the teams aren't uneven or stacked.
It was a hot day, and you guys did well with bringing out some water, but possibly keeping water at the spawn points for people. Even a few cheap water jugs that have the dirt-tasting water kept there if people run out of camelbak delicious water.
Possibly have a BBQ afterwards and sell some burgers to everyone at near cost and maybe some icy cold refreshing beverages (depending on age and who is driving).
