Something I want to say:
I saw people on all sides who were calling hits for other people. This was addressed during the lunchtime briefing, yet I saw it even more during the second half. I was accused no less than 6 times for not calling my hits. I have no reason to NOT call my hits. No one does. 99.9% of the time, if you think you are hitting them, and they aren't calling it, then you aren't really hitting them. You might be hitting 10 feet in front of them, or zinging them right past their ear, but you aren't hitting them. If you are hitting them (and it is blatantly obvious like the 5 people I shot center mass from less then 20 feet with my sidearm today), and they aren't calling their hits, you have 2 options: shoot them till they call it, or find an admin. Telling someone to "f***ing TAKE YOUR HIT!" goes against the code of honor that we all try to follow during the course of an airsoft game. If I am hit, I will call it. If I am not hit, I will not call it. Please learn to see better, aim better, or be sneakier. I never once had to question if someone I shot was hit. They new it ever single time. By engaging at closer then your maximum range and using your sights, your percentages of actually hitting your target increase dramatically.[/rant]
Also, I would like to push for a 16+ age limit on games from now on. The can be a provision for sponsored persons under 16, but most of the issues I saw today came from the under 16 crowd. But this is a conversation for another time.
Mehmeh, Jester I was watching that exchange and clearly those kids for just having a paddy. It always happens in airsoft and I find it best to shrugs it off. They did not hit you, the acted dishonourably but it did not affect the course or outcome of the game and everyone at all times was aware it was just poor sportsmanship. Also, thanks for your help. That was great, You beat me to that objective by a couple of minutes.
