ah ok. I take it back.

I also found it mildly humorous, note sarcasm here, that the Black Bears attempted to host their own game on the 24th, posting several days after pulling out of Z4. There was sufficient time when they said they weren't coming but I still found it mildly humorous, note some more sarcasm again, that it was scheduled for the exact same day.

I did find it extremely funny that it got canceled with only one sign up aside from them.

yes thats right... it's illustrative of behavior that is tolerated , not about one incident or one circumstance.

well the lack of any seeming organization with respect to scheduled games is a seperate issue.

We are trying to deal with that as well but it is going to require greater co-operation between game hosts.

That is a different discussion.. does not have to happen here

+1
I think we should pre-pay before events, via PAYPAL OR EMT. That would solve the problem, I would have no problem doing this my self......

no. that won't likely work except at maybe private fields. ones at paintball fields could be messy with administrative duties that now gets dumped on the host.

it may work in certain circumstances

I've seen it work

you do it like this

$20 prepaid $30 at the field .. so you can still pay at the field but it cost you a premium.

not applicable at PB fields because it is not a deal between the host and the player .. it's a deal between the PB place and the player.. the host is just an agent.. a pimp so to speak for the PB place.

for those known flakers on the shit lists sure. +1 here as long as the host would be willing to deal with the additional logistical headache

and the story you gave me? that was a mistake as well?

What is done is done.. and people live with the legacy of their errors. Lets not make more of this than it is.

but it's a good lesson.

look at the date before you jump in ... or you put yourself in a tight spot.

Hey Brian you can kick me off that list of hosts and owners I have yet to earn it and most definitely made a big mistake thanks for lettin me in though.

I apologize to the community, about this misunderstanding, I am taking full accountability for my mistake I thought the Zombie game was open we didn't know we would make it in to the CQB game, the team was gonna go to the zombie game but because of conflicting schedules figured it would be a safer bet to hit the CQB.

Once again I apologize to Scarecrow, Z, Brian and all players I may have offended or pissed off.

If there is a Players Flakers blacklist Ill Volunteer to put myself on that list.

Do this from now on & you will see better results in the players mentality, over all enjoyment, money in the pocket.

Put a lot into the games/scenarios, and it will pay in dividends as time goes on.

re: Able1

I was less pissed off with you, and far more pissed off with with people who were a no-show with no reason and no warning.

As was pointed out earlier in the thread, I generally prefer to focus on those who did attend and enjoyed the game and hospitality, as those people are far more worthy of my attention and efforts. But, the flakers have been noted.

[Able1]

Scarecrow I met you that one time you met went down to defcon outdoor with Santo, I did not mean any disrespect by jumping out of your game, I really am sorry mate.
