The Return of the Old School Last Saturday at 1:30, a squadron of Dark Forest demigods emerged from winter hibernation to battle the fourth generation of paintball players. These veteran players, under the banner “The Eleven” used their woodcraft of yore to defeat the new generation of players who had rallied under the name Cthulhu. It seems that the aged skills of the seasoned players gave them the edge to trounce Cthulhu, who were equip with state-of-the-art guns and had yet to loose their baby bird feathers. Those in attendance included Christopher Rice and Chad Correl. Nelson Fonseca, Barry Schippang, Travis Graham would have come, but were terrified of the rain which fell during the wee hours of morning. Hopefully these craven players will be courageous enough to brave the elements and arrive for the game scheduled for this Friday, May 24, 2002. Welcome New Players! This past Saturday, three new players arrived not yet ready to play paintball. These three also knew of a fourth player who was ready to join the fray. Collectively these “four horsemen” own a Tippmann Model 98, NPS Rebel, Brass Eagle Talon, and Viewloader Genesis. This quad of newbies will, with and luck, soon become veterans of the Dark Forest. Trains & Lanes Excellent news for those who like good news! Trains and Lanes, located on Northwood Avenue in Easton, now sells a variety of paintball products. This includes CO2, for which their prices are $3 for a 9 oz, $4 for a 12 oz, and $5 for a 20 oz, that’s $1 less for a 20oz than Army Navy! Development News Update During the past weeks, there has been a lot of new construction around the Forest Behind Nacac. Now the field on the right side of GPT has been leveled and made ready for construction. It seems that homes will be put up right next to GPT and within 100 feet of Mid-World Trail. With houses this close, we’ll be hard pressed to continue to use the forest without drawing unwanted attention from these intruders. Glossary Mid-World Trail- The trail which cuts the Forest Behind Nacac in half. On one side of the trail is GPT, the other is the Dark Forest. Main Trail- The main trail that runs through the Dark Forest and also GPT Left Trail- The lesser used trail which runs up the bottom left side of The Dark Forest (When viewed from Mid-World Trail) Ho Chi Minh Trail- A secret trail rumored to be located near the Tire Castle |
