Looking forward to this upcoming Challenge op - planning on two platoons!

Jomo · 2012-07-03, 10:49 AM

The challenge Op should be great. We've been fielding almost a full platoon or sometimes more the past few nights.

Good times, good times.

We'll be out there all week, if any of you out there have interest in joining in the fun, hit us up!

As an incentive to join, our very own JimSolo has said this in response to if we can get 6 full galaxies for our Challenge Op:

If we field 6 I will Carry the BWC flag down field wearing only my boxers (and a cup) and a mask.

Take it to the Bank

He is referring to a paintball field.

Because in addition to our Planetside and MWO divisions, we also have a scenario woodball team. A team that has received Most Valuable Team at the West Point Combat Classic two years running, if I'm not mistaken. The principles we apply in-game are transferable to other things like paintball or actual combat (because they're straight applications of military small-unit tactics).

If you'd bother to show up you'd know it's our fourth award in four years of playing exactly one game a year. Not bad for a bunch of gamers who get together once a year IRL.

No other outfit can match what we accomplish ZOMG AFK IRL WTFBBQ. And I'll back that shit up. Take the "Motherfucking Firefly Challenge". Bring your boys to the field, I'll bring my warriors. We'll take home another trophy.

If I didn't live a thousand miles away and I didn't work two jobs on top of school, you can bet I'd be there.

SniperSteve · 2012-07-04, 01:43 PM

Yeah, few other large gaming outfits can boast an In Real Life 24 hour operation..

I'd like to attend the paintball but it's difficult to get to the east coast when you live in CA

Hell, it's hard to get to the East Coast when you live in MO.

But I swear, one year, I'll be there and you'll all be saying "So that's what you look like..."

If they ever build a high speed train connection to the US that I can take from Europe I'll come and join for a few games

Not as hard as you think. Skwishy flew in and was picked up by one of us East coasters. he had his gear mailed to another BWC member and then brought to WP.

Dov · 2012-07-07, 12:31 PM

How many members do you expect will carry over to PS2?

I remember that. I also remember you two not swinging by for a beer when you were a half hour south of me.

Jerks.
