PSU: Mobilization Bravo - Page 3

FreeTrialBoy · 2004-08-25, 12:29 PM

if you guys do intend to have some sort of empire vs empire paintball game how would those among us with our own guns be able to get them there? last time my friend tried to bring a gun aboard they wouldnt let him on. wouldnt even let him put the gun in baggage i think. well as you start figuring things out and if paintball does become part of the plan please let me know.

Thanks Infernus, saved me the trouble of repeating myself

Its an ok idea really... sure I wanted to bring my new Imp but it doesn't really matter... if the field we go to rents an A5 I'll be fine... thats what I've been using for the longest time =/

firecrackerNC · 2004-08-25, 12:43 PM

OMG OMG OMG You got an Imp? What kind/ color? Impys rules, Ive had mine for about a year and a half and man it rocks. Never breaks down, always reliable, always kicks the other persons ass. Mines the Rat Impy, color green with tapeworm and vision.

Infernus · 2004-08-25, 12:45 PM

I don't have it yet... I'm ordering it in a few weeks...

I'm getting a Game Face, Black, with Halo B.

Triggar · 2004-08-25, 12:46 PM

again, cap is at 40 people.

Guess that thwarts any chances of me going.

ViperGTS · 2004-08-25, 01:02 PM

If there is an open spot I am so fucking there.

Triggar · 2004-08-25, 01:18 PM

PSU people will have a very great chance of coming. I doubt all 30 people who came this year will come next year, and a bunch of the outfit people who would take up the next tier of spots would already be included in the original 30. If I thought you guys had anything to worry about - if I thought that PSU people didn't stand a chance - we would not have the system.

Again, John and I haven't finalised _anything_, so all this speculation can be for nothing.

also true.

for example, if we gained anything besides headaches and ulcers from organizing this event, we'd raise the cap by a lot... but we don't and won't. sorry.

Infernus · 2004-08-25, 01:24 PM

you must remember that a small group of the 30 that came to MA are already inculded elsewhere...

Like I can be considered the PSUMA tier or the CDL tier... plus not all 30 will be going... geogrpahical location plays a big factor you must remember... plus my dad is "cutting me loose" of sorts cause it was proven that you're all not a bunch of internet rapists and/or murderers...

martyr · 2004-08-25, 01:25 PM

^obviously reducing the number of parent chaperones (we had three at alpha)

So is that who kept calling you?

martyr · 2004-08-25, 01:37 PM

don't listen to her, i have plenty of friends

TheRealCyber · 2004-08-25, 02:00 PM

I was wondering if the tips from PSUMA were helpful, were they?

If you are going to hold Delta (I'd skip C, Cappa, sounds ghey) in Florida again, then I'll join you. I was kinda in the middle of a storm right before PSUMA, but I was going to go with you guys those few days, if I remembered it

TRC out

1)cappa is actually kappa
2)The third letter in the Greek alphabet is gamma
3)As martyr pointed out they're using the phonetic alphabet and not the Greek (they just both happen to start with alpha

)

Infernus · 2004-08-25, 02:59 PM

K = Kappa

There is no stand alone greek C...

Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Theta, Iota, Kappa, Lambda, Mu, Nu, Xi, Omicron (Omikron), Pi, Rho, Sigma, Tau, Upsilon, Phi, Chi, Psi, Omega.

In English: A, B, G, D, E, Z, E (pronounced like the -ey in hey), TH, I, K, L, M, N, X, O, P, R, S, T, U, F, CH, PS, O (pronounced like the -ow in grow)

Lartnev · 2004-08-25, 03:02 PM

take you 10 minutes to look that up inf?

Infernus · 2004-08-25, 03:06 PM

Meh nope... I know the greek alphabet... I too used to call it mobilization Beta... It just took me ten minutes to care + write the post...

Indecisive · 2004-08-25, 03:50 PM

I still think we should skip PSU:MH and go to a cooler name

PSU: Mobilzation Hotel!

...

We better be going to like some 8 star hotel heh.

Triggar · 2004-08-25, 03:59 PM

Martyr and I were laughing at the possibility of holding PSU: Mobilization Quebec in Quebec... but that isn't for a looooooooong time.

biodemon · 2004-08-25, 04:53 PM

Hey triggar i wouldnt recomend holding a PSU:M event in europe , cause it would cost every one 2500$ or more for the air fair plus hotel , then you need a translator and a bunch of other stuff.

Indecisive · 2004-08-25, 04:54 PM

Quebec? That place scares the hell out of me. I think I might pass

If we ever did, it wouldn't be for years still. The group cap would be at around 10 people who told me in advance they'd pay the high cost and the red tape would be astronomical... but PSU: Euro Tour would be r33t and I'd love to do it in a few year's time, when I myself could better afford it!

Oh, so it's alright for us lot to pay it is it?

Nah seriously this is why I mentioned earlier that a Euro/Brit PSUM wouldn't work too well. I've just bought a massive piggy bank to save up

Triggar · 2004-08-25, 05:32 PM

biodemon · 2004-08-25, 05:45 PM

I know this because im in the school band an every other year we go to europe and the cost is usually 2500 for 7 days.

Triggar · 2004-08-25, 05:49 PM

Yeah, it would be really expensive - no way in hell could I organize an event in Europe for any less than $2000. Like I said, I'll have to be approached by 10 or so people who are willing to pay upfront for the weekend before I'll do it. Frankly, I would love to do it - but not for a few years.

Squeeky · 2004-08-25, 05:51 PM

$2,000

Infernus · 2004-08-25, 05:51 PM

My mom can't decide if she'll send me to San Diego let alone Europe... =/

Indecisive · 2004-08-25, 05:55 PM

By the time operation limey rolls around you will probubly be 18 dude, I know im gonna be 18 for SD

Triggar · 2004-08-25, 06:05 PM

I highly doubt that there would be any under 18's if we did a PSU: Euro Tour. I'd expect a handful of the older (i.e. "richer") members of the community.
