I heard from another website that there is a special price for teams (60 bucks per team if I remember correctly) if you register before September 17th. Is there any truth to this, or is it 50 dollars per person, no matter when you register?

i highly doubt it. there is usally a charge per person, not per team.
but you can call the store 843-552-1115 and they can answer that question to be sure.
or post up on pbjunkie.com, im positive there are answers there. bunch of scenario teams there.

that cant be true because they wouldnt know if you were local or not

that cant be true because they wouldnt know if you were local or not
If they keep the sheets you fill out they can check those. And they can reconize. If the rule is true then they probably meant regulars when they said locals.

You have to get the medic card and the white medic arm tape from your General on Friday night or Saturday morning.Be sure to attend the player briefing on Saturday morning for all the game information.

ok thanks, I will call the store. Does anyone know from experience if being a medic is anyfun? My friend is deadset on being one, and he is really fast, quick, and he thinks it perfect for him, and so do I. BUt i was wondering if you guys think it is actually fun to do, or is it really stressful? Thanks

What is the last day people can sign up at $50 (before it raises to $60) for this event? I thought I read somewhere the price went up the week before the event. I know of at least 4 more going to register for our team.

I cant open up the Registration Packet how do i open it?
PBMainiac3
11-13-2008, 04:12 PM
download it, save file. It'll open in Adobe.
All I can say is I hope it doesn't rain
Not because I don't like the rain, but paint does not tend to go straight in the rain. Not good if you are shooting pump. Plus, I like shooting my impulse sometimes too. It does not like water.
Anyone know what paint they are going to sell?
I remember when we had a big board or something we had roles on that time for D day or something? Hell, I can't remember can anyone refresh my memory? (I believe this was a PBC sponsored scenario, not MPP Games) That was a good setup.

Uh...I plan on going that Friday night by myself but don't have a place to stay. I was gonna use my car but that's not fun for a scenario. Anyone got an extra spot at their camp site? (I'll bring tons of blankets XD)
I'm on Germans with GLK and Roadkill. (still gotta meet those guys)
The event forum also said right now as their update there expecting 800+.
That sounds like a great time on its way.

where are the bases for each team?
its on the map. I cant recall the website. Anyway, Restov (actually its spelled Rostov, sorry just being nit picky) is the German base and Stalingrad (which is now Volgograd...damn me and my PC!) is the Russian base. I took some time to actually read up a little about this battle. Did you know that the Battle of Stalingrad was the bloodiest battle of human history with an estimated 1.8 million casualities? Thats ridiculous! Sorry for the grim histroy lesson.

it wouldn't matter. whatever side needs players.

I'd say do it Friday. There'll be less people.
fat old guy
11-19-2008, 02:43 PM
At the last 24 hr game, they made us wait until Saturday morning. It would be great if we could sign in Friday. I suspect they won't sell paint until Saturday though, to keep people from knowing the shell and fill colors. It's a shame they would have to do that, to protect themselves. People should just buy their paint from PBC and not try to sneek in the cheap stuff. It will happen, just hope they are caught. It sucks to call yourself out for a hit, then realize you were hit with the wrong color paint. I'm still out, just wish I could ID the person that did it and report to refs.

11-19-2008, 02:48 PM

15 for all day air, 60 to enter unless you are a member, then it is 50, then 50 for crap paint, and 60 for good paint.

As cold as it is supposed to be ya'll better buy the "crap" paint unless you want hopper soup.
Ishiga
11-20-2008, 01:25 PM
I don't have money for the good paint anyway. Bringin $100 for paint. two cases of crap, which honestly is probably going to be better than the regular stuff i use. Anybody know if we'll be able to use leftover paint at regular games after the scenario is over? I'd rather not piss away $100 on paint when there's a chance I won't use it all if I can't use any of the leftovers.

You can use your leftover paint on regular rec and rec speedball dates.Although, with 800 players, you should not have any leftovers.
Ishiga
11-20-2008, 01:49 PM
Alright, good. Thanks. I'm hoping I won't have any leftovers but you never know. When I get down to my last 1000 I usually tend to get a little too conservative.

they also keep the paint in a temp controlled storage unit or truck, that way when it gets down in the 20's you dont have to worry about cold brittle paint in the morning
Logan04
11-20-2008, 04:21 PM
last scenario i went to i got 2 cases and came back with a bit over half a case left. it all depends on how much you shoot. either way you can still keep and use whats left over.

Aint that the truth. I was freezing my a$$ off in the morning when we had the safety briefing. The head guy was longwinded but was very passionate about the game and paintball, so i don't mind freezing my toes off for that.:laugh8kb: Well so far the Gremans are doing great. The last i know we finished every mission except 1, correct me if im wrong. So yeah we are owning! Hopefully the Russians cant catch up over night. I'll have to wait till tomorrow to see what the points are. But all in all this scenerio has been fun and everyone is playing hard on both sides.

Had an amazing time. Yes, during the nights in my car sleeping I did freeze my toes off but was well worth it the next playing.
Nice, ending ceremony as well =)

(sigh) it's not even woth correcting. DEEP you still around?
Ok, the long answer first.
Give them time to go through the pictures. When we take pictures of an event (Junkie, Chappy, Me, others) we often take MANY MANY pictures of an event. You folks just don’t know. I know myself and Junkie have had events where we've taken over 3k pics at about 5-10 megs a piece. :shocked7fl: That's about 30 gigs of photos. From a single event. By one person.
After we take a break (we run around as well), we begin the fun of post processing. In most cases every photo is looked at. Over half will be deleted immediately. Out of focus, no clear subject, Jokers junk is showing from under his kilt, pictures of the ground... So now were only down to 1500 photos, another round of checks. Hmm, duplicates, hot happy with color/exposure, Pshop work etc. Lets call it 800 photos for a big event make it past all the cuts. Now I have 800 photos around 10 megs each. I need to reduce them in size to the 700-1meg mark. that takes a few hours even automated. Then we need to put them on the server. That takes a bit. Ever try downloading a full length movie on a slower connection? Remember you don’t get total control of the server so the more people cruising through pbjunkie.com the slower it'll take. Now, photos are on the server Junkie is notified, and he has to start the Data basing on his machine. This usually takes a couple hours. Finally after all this, the Gallery is ready to be viewed. 5-800 photos strong, pictures of you and you friends having fun. Then you ask the question. yup. That one. Can I get a better copy of this random photo of me. :oo7dt: Aint going to happen kid. not unless junkie likes you and wants to waste an hour or three looking for that one specific photo...
Now the short answer.
Give them a few days kid, it takes time. Patience.
