Massive Attack - Special Cases

Is a Dawkins fan. Oh, skip me by the way - this thread is just a huge, perpetual circle jerk. There's a joke in there about a gherkin. hahahaha

Astrix - Artcore

Gee, I wonder where you got that. Last three: Velvet Acid Christ - Lust Velvet Acid Christ - For Velvet Acid Christ - Blood Neato.

The first one is set up with a very small spring-feed magazine in the grip (and most of what you see is really just a rifle-ish body built around a Tac-8 pistol) but it can also accept an angled direct feed.

Some fields I've played at implement a rule for new/recreational players who don't want to be shot at slapping distance - if you can run up and touch the front of another player's bunker without getting shot on the way, the occupant of that bunker is eliminated. The minimum firing range/surrender rules don't work when you have a guy turtled in the corner of a three sided box. I've played airsoft, once. Used am M3 pump shotgun, and held my own. I still own an old, beat-up AEG. It was entertaining, and I see the appeal. I always wanted a few of the more accurate re-creations of firearms I like just to play with them. But in general, I prefer paintball. The psychological motivation associated with the threat of .68 caliber, potentially painful objects was just that much more visceral than the idea of 6mm plastic pellets. (They can hurt too, I know). The pellets are way cheaper, I realise this as well. But recently, paintball companies have begun to build an increasing number of 'tactical' styled paintball markers for the mil-sim enthusiast. They're not nearly as 'true to life' as the airsoft rifels, of course, but some mimic AR-series rifles and MP5 sub machine guns fairly convincingly. The hopper tends to ruin the effect, but some people are willing to opt for small-capacity spring magazines to keep the look.

First time I played, entry fees included a 500 bag. I shot through almost all of it in two or three short games. Adrenaline and beat up, ridiculously inaccurate paintguns. I typically shoot 500-1000 in a day of play, if I'm using one of my semis. Maybe 200 for my stock-class pump, and 500 for my bulk pump.

Automatics are banned almost everywhere for insurance reasons. That's not to say alot of places won't overlook it. Anyway, a semi-automatic electropneumatic with a trigger that cycles when the wind blows can pump out 18+ bps as easily as any automatic. 300fps is the maximum legal limit anywhere, and I've never seen a field that allowed anything over 280 - unregulated CO2 can spike if it gets hot or you get liquid into the valve. Close range fire can hurt like hell, yeah. Tournament rules where bunkering is in effect can be brutal. I prefer to play with the 'touch the front of the bunker and the occupant is out' rule.

Good, good. The body armour isn't neccessary for most people, the women folk included. Worst hits I've seen have been throat, bald head, and behind the ear anyway. Worst I've taken have been inside elbow, head, palm of hand, back of knee...and of course the jewels. Oh, and when I shot myself in the thigh because I was accosted by an enormous hornet.

Not so much, even if I had a bike. And hell, I haven't played much in a few years.

About time. Washed and waxed the car by hand, despite the knowledge that it's a futile fight against the dust and pollen that will encrust the vehicle within two hours.

Che was a little more photogenic than Ghandi.

According to some guy I know and his girlfriend, neither of whom are morons, it's decent.

Apocalypto. Better than expected.

Pitchshifter - Kerosene

BOC is weird stuff. Never suspected anyone but me knew of them on here. Pitchshifter - Voted Least Likely To Succeed (technically post-pitchshifter)

yes please (yes please), come see (you'll see) we're the ones voted least likely to succeed with no silver spoons, no silver spoons we're the ones that you never knew (sing that shit)

Iron lung? Oooh, IV drip.

If you do, there will be consequences.

Most of them don't really know who Che was anyway.

Heh. Reminds me of Saturday night. Good times...

Stay back, you vultures.

Grendel - Pax Psychosis (Tactical Sekt mix)

Clearly he was assassinated by a Norwegian hitman, hired through handlers by a coalition of Fruit of the Loom and Haynes in a sinister plot to create a pop culture t-shirt empire. Just like Jesus and those plastic bobble heads, or Dale Earnhardt and die-cast replica NASCARs.

Hahahaha! Kidney booooomb!
