OcUK 2013 Gamers Camping meet?

Gimpymoo · 18 Apr 2013 at 13:10

Any campers in here? (Get it?.... moving on)

Would anyone be interested in meeting up for a weekend in the summer in a field to swap stories over a few beverages, a couple of BBQ's and a camp fire over a few nights?

I am certain we can fit in some Paint Balling inbetween or maybe go for a hike for those with such interests. Either way, would be fun.

Forum feuds can be settled over a KY Jelly match if needed ala Old School.

I would rather keep this to PCG/Console gaming if there are enough of us as to be honest, the GD crowd scare me.

Don't forget, camping's a legitimate strategy!

This sounds like it could be awesome

any idea where it'd be?

Just seeing how many would be interested and we can take it from there I guess.

*Wait for Rush vs Camp war to commence*

Sounds awesome! The paint balling might be a little slow, at least every corner will be watching by someone.

Im only coming over from the Netherlands if all the people in the GFX section come over. Ill sit on the side with my beer and watch them go at it IRL.

A man can dream right?

I always figured you were female from the name

If they're made to wear green and red t-shirts I imagine it'd be easier to keep track of casualties.

I'd be up for it work/RL/money/location depending, can I bring Woodhouse my butler?

Bit of balling sounds fun

Sounds like an excuse for an orgy

That does make a lot more sense! Was wondering where that A came from, or if it meant something else

Hi guys, saw this and thought I'd post in it. A couple of years ago a clan I was in had a meet up here: http://www.scammonden.org.uk/sacnew/modules/content/?id=1 we stayed for the weekend. Huddersfield is only 15 minutes away and I imagine with nicer weather you can get the water activity stuff out!

It's also massive and can sleep quite a lot of people

think together it came to about £15 each incl. meat for the BBQ and a couple of crates.

Sounds interesting im up for some noob camper pwnage.

Its been awhile since someone tried to do a OCUK camping meet, dont think ive ever seen a successful one. They normally break down due to choice of location or just agreeing on dates.

McGray · 18 Apr 2013 at 14:37

EDIT: Perhaps not appropriate!

Schizo · 18 Apr 2013 at 14:40

First person i see gets one between the eyes !

This is about kicking back and having a laugh and getting to know people "IRL" and iSeries is not everyones cup of tea.

All this....and we haven't even got to the main game yet!!

Sunday Main Game - Staargate v Crusaders

The Staargate main game last year was for many the best one yet. Really simple and clear respawn corridors with high vis netting allowed players to respawn in moment. The Planet Eclipse electronic safes and the Shoreline electronic flags worked really well and of course........you can always count on pyro!

This year there will be 6 factions. 3 Staargate Factions and 3 Crusader factions.

We always like to mix things up and include everyone. So there will be faction leaders from the tournament side of the game, inexperienced leaders, grizzled veterans and everything in between.
