By the time this gets read, the game will be over...so this could be considered a pre, post game, post.

Awakened at 3am by fever, aches, and flu symptoms...needless to say I will not be there.

Thanks ahead of time to my command team Tom, Phiz, Chris and Vaughn for picking up my slack.

I'm disappointed to miss the second round of RTL, and hope all goes/went well.

Excellent job MFA for holding your fort and kicking us square in the nuts. You definitely made things an absolute pain in the a$$ for your opposition today. As for the dudes that put the hostage in the guard tower - f**king brilliant. I just saw a shadow & barrel and shot and had no idea I had just shot our hostage. Well done.

To my teammates whom I lost my cool with - I apologize. I shouldn't have yelled like I did but I really got pushed to my breaking point. It's not fun getting our asses kicked like we were - even after admin made some changes in our favor. But when we start making progress and I keep getting shot by my teammates ... it's incredibly frustrating. It became a glorified nature hike. I personally was teamkilled five separate times. My uniform wasn't anything deceiving. I had a MARPAT uniform. I had two red pieces of tape on me signifying SF Team. That was explained in the briefing. Three of the times I was shot in the back by my own team.

A tip: If you aren't sure if the guy is on your team by his camo - look at what direction his barrel is pointed. One of the major failures was when the entire SF Team got wiped out by our own team - even after we were yelling FRIENDLY / SF TEAM / NATIONAL GUARD.

Bottom line - use some trigger discipline. I can recognize people want to be gung ho and light up the enemy, but take the time to look at your target. Not just the camo but how they're acting, where their barrel is, what squad are they rolling with. Take a look around during the briefing to get an idea of who your teammates are.

Admins - Thank you for working hard during the game and having great communication. You kept an open ear and recognized some of the gameplay downfalls and made adjustments on the fly to keep people entertained. Thank you!!

Special thanks to cheery for providing the hostages with guns.

I also want to say sorry. I cam up behind about 8 or so ng and I think I shot a couple people several times after they called hit. Couldn't see you the best.

<---human meat shield activated! Also... getting the safety off an M4 while your hands are gloved and cuffed behind your back is amazingly difficult!

thank you again everyone, i had a great first event and even got to come home with a nice welt on the face to show the wife.

A well earned victory for the MFA. Well done.

National Guard, SF Team and Squad Leaders: you carried out each and every mission to your absolute best! Never faltering in the face of obstacles. I couldn't be more thankful to command our team. I personally thank each and every one of for your vigilance and determination.

My thanks to Chesty_01, the Admins and the staff at registration. Great game and I look forward to more in the future.

RBeran: wishing you a speedy recovery! Get feeling better! You were missed.

Good game guys. It was my first time at the Farm - I like the field. It reminds me a lot of the oldschool "uncle bob's" field - some of you old timers know what I'm talking about. Big ravine, hills, mud, but some great buildings throughout and nice paths cut in. Keep it up. Looking forward to playing there again.

The game was decent, but wow - starting from the back of the field is rough. It's a real pain in the a$$ trying to assault that compound. If you flank it, you gotta fight uphill to get there. If you run strait up the middle, you are totally exposed. Anyway, at least it's a challenge.

The friendly fire today was RIDICULOUS! Seriously people need to calm down and pay attention instead of just shooting at the first sign of movement.

Sidenote: For those of you that saw the large amounts of search & rescue rigs - my guess was right. They're searching for Kyron up in the Skyline area.

It was good to see such a turnout of people on a day that was supposed to be filled with rain. I had a blast admining today and was happy to see our proactive approach helped enhance the game rather than make it a mess.

I will say the worst part of the day was watching a contingent of NG start taking out their SF team. Halfway through I even shouted a warning about target ID which seemed to be ignored as the remaining team members were taken out. I was glad I wasn't on the a$$ chewing side when Chief discovered the mistake that had been made.
Otherwise I hope everyone enjoyed themselves and for the most part I saw a lot of professionalism and self control, great game all!
Thanks Chesty and Billdo for letting me help out!

Well, just so you know, friendly fire wasn't restricted to the just one side. I got it from an mfa while standing in the middle of 5 other mfa's, in the middle of the camp.

Best part of the day was having our hostage's run from us, and "mysteriously" getting their guns and shooting at us.

Was a fun day, allot of mud. Not much more you can ask for on an otherwise rainy oregon day.
