something I should say

ok... I say this on behalf of me (Michael Kramer, the guy who plays and makes obnoxious videos, not Mike the guy who sells stuff or represents anyone) [I speak only for myself right now]

I want to apologize for a few things. I've been acting unprofessional, rude and improper towards other players. I have not been doing my job well on the field, and I've failed many people.

one thing to understand for non-AJ people and people who are not in the military...
We have very little chance of standing against the AJ's for one very clear reason. They are military trained. Fighting armed battles is their living, and everything must be done perfectly. They have spent a very long time perfecting combat movements, commands, marksmanship, and physical conditioning. They are in a line of work where mistakes get people killed.
Other players (kids, non-military [civilian], and new players may only have paintball, video games, other times they played airsoft and stuff their friends tell them about it. That is why it seems so hard to beat the junkies. The junkies are also a PRO TEAM. they've been playing longer.

I am sorry for misusing my position and I'm willing to listen to input (in a civilized manner). Thanks for those of you who have helped me.

the key to victory is realizing one's advantage. though we (AJ) have superior tactics and training, it does not mean that we cannot be beaten. take a look at the statistics, during deathmatches the opposing players split themselves into small teams of maybe 1-3. this is easy for us to defeat due to our refined teamwork and training to handle small engagements (firepower helps too, but lets not focus on that). however, when the opposing force unifies its numbers (which are vastly supieror to ours), it makes it a lot more difficult for us to obtain our objective due to the fact that now our numbers are either stretched entirely too thin (in which case we have to work much harder to gain ground), or bunched up entirely too close (in which case we are easily flanked). so, to make my point clear, the key to victory lies within three things; teamwork, strategy, and balls. only if you have all three will you guys stand a chance.

fundy you forgot to mention combat rolls as a fundamental

well, it's easier on my part if I can find a way to train people in understanding what it means when I say "bound ahead" "flank" and other stuff. I forget so often people don't know what a flank is.

To be honest, I don't like the way it divides up. I also don't get that people once in a while they'll forget their objective! even I forgot at one point

primary objective= rescue captured blue shirt guy
Secondary objective= push away the enemy
if possible= eliminate that guy who's smiling at me

that turned into

objective= shoot ivy, he's smiling too much
query= what am I doing?
query= do I have any support?
query= who just shot me in the ear?
query= why does respawn have to be so far away
query= um... damn... why is he calling game?
discovery= oh great! I didn't complete some sort of objective!

then I blame myself.

but yeah... I think if we had the AJ's doing the escort they were planning the first time, I'd have made myself look all king like and tried taking the victory shot. only to have ivy and holle shoot me and laugh. then to have someone else take the shot while I'm trying to respawn.

but anyway... yeah... some tactics and better execution. yes, AJ's can be beat. yes, we can beat them. and one day, I can lead the victory. But first if I have to (or want to) lead something like that, I gotta learn to communicate.

haha, me and my friends beat them one sunday... but it didn't really count, and it wasn't really fair for them because it was only like five on five, and we all had ghillie suits on and were camping. That day wasn't really official. we were all just messin around.

wish I was there for that.

DJ took out 3/5 myself. I got hit by a gullie suit, Keep up the good work, I love challenges. We lost 2 times this sunday, I love playing games like that. (two team members)

I still have a open challenge that we will play anyone, with even numbers and Beat them.

yeah man, that homeless guy was creeepy. I only saw one though. I didn't know there was more.

I think it was right when i was leaving i heard someone shot in where he was (thinking it was OpFor) and he cussed them out. haha.

Also... last saturday was stupid. The first game was fun, but then it got stupid.

someone shot a drifter?
