Checking in with the crew, they are checking to clear their schedules, if it all goes well then we're in....

Gonna try to get a bunch from Cali to come out to this one...

Oh hell, does this mean that we'll have fish?

Now we need Total Greif to show up to make the finals interesting. Dang. I just hope I can talk the roadtrip crew into doing it.

Actually, call ahead, and get more info from the field. They really want to know that people are interested in doing this. One of the reasons he's hosting this event is to see if pumps only tournaments are enough of a "Draw" for people to come in and play. I'm looking at it as a weekender. Play rec on Saturday, then the tournament on Sunday.

Oh, and rumormill here too. They've gotten calls from Texas, and I heard that the old members of Swarm are thinking about jumping in on it with thier old Annihilators....

Tyg,
Don't know about the Fish clan yet, there is a Pan Am event... But am putting together some of the other top crews from So Cal.

Hopefully we can get a group of teams out there. Would love to face Grief, in fact, the Fish have always wanted to face those guys....

So I am spreading the word and organizing a roadtrip. I hope to have at least two or more crews out....

We would love a chance to play Total Greif. Flipped Out is in.

well, it looks like the fish are in too then. this should be fun

would be nice to be able to get work off. (Like that ever happens)
You folks have fun out there. And take lots of pix.

wonder how much plane tix to my home-town cost now adays.

Ok, now we just need to get Greif involved. They're not comittted, mind you. No word from them. I'm just hoiping they get wind of this and show up.

-Tyger

I'm not sure what the status of Greif is right now. Last I had heard, and it has been maybe a year, there was some serious termoil. I tried to forward this on to their web page, but it doesn't appear to be operative. I dropped a line to someone I know over at Extreme to see if he can get word across.
I'd love to attend, but I'll be shooting birds in SD that weekend.

Shives

Oh Man milo, Flipped is in? OK.... Can I borrow a player since we only really have four....

Flipped in Chicago, that should be a hoot!


Now if we can get some others to go, it would be a blast...

Fish, Flipped, well, us too but that is no big deal, it'd be cool to see Special Ed make the trip too....

Gotta have lot's of media coverage on this one.....

For Special Ed

I will talk to the rest of the team to see if we can make it out to Chicago. Would love to play. Meeting this weekend for play and will let you guys know early next week.

Tim

Sweet, in talking to them they have some interest from Wi and other states...They also believe it is going to fly with a full 20 teams....

Registration Forms are going to be available soon

Anyone need an extra guy to play/help out at the tournament? I don't have a team that I can sign up with but I'd love to play. I shoot a VSC phantom and would be glad to practice & play with any team playing pump and/or planning on going.

We are currently seeing who we can muster to come on up.

Team Total Greif

Cool! We want to play you guys! You can only get worked by Blowfish so many times and then it gets boring : ) We want to see what it's like to get beat by Total Greif! Saaaawwweeeeeet!

Milo
Flipped Out

Aaaahhh. That's what we were looking for!! Thank you Eric for responding (and joining to do so!). We hope to see you there! If you guys get to where you can ink it please let us know so we can start hyping it up!!

We still haven't heard from Texas!

Ahhhhh now it's getting good! (rubbing my beedy little hands together) with all that talent showing up to play, WE CAN RULE THE WORLD!!!!


BWWWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAhAH...(enter sinister music here)

You know... When the guy at PB Shooters talked to me about this, I didn't think it would end up being what ammounts to the "Indoor pump championships".

Wow.

Let the competition commence...

-Tyger

Tyger You have no idea how many people we are trying to get in this. I really hope to see a few more cali teams show up....I know there are two for sure, already making arrangements. With about 5 or six weighing their options to get in....


Bottomline, this thing is going to rock!

I'm beginning to wonder if ther'es gonna be room for IL teams....

-Tyger

It looks like Flipped Out wants is in for sure (mostly), but then again a lot things can happen between now and October. I wonder if there is a way to post teams that are officially paid for, registered and set to play.

holy crap, i thought stock class play was dead in the mid west...i had 2 phantoms bout 5 months ago, but got rid of them becasue there was no one to play with...but NOW...im defiantly gettin me another phantom :) i live right in oswego, PBS is like 10 minutes from me.

this is crazy. im glad i found this!!

Looks like Special Ed is most likely going to be there. Looking at airfares right now.

Tim

Would you like the "YUMA RATTLERS" to show up??????????

Heck yeah, the rats have to be there too... if yall can make it!

Rattlers should definitely show up. Looks like a bunch of folks are looking forward to this event on our end. What about the local Chicago, midwest and east coast players? I'd like to think that we're not coming all this way only to play each other, because we can do that for a lot cheaper at home.

Ya, it looks like it is going to be OSC #8. We're just going to pay hundreds to play it!! I don't care, we will be there. If the east coast/midwest/Texas don't show, then I guess we will have an idea of who has the true hotbed of sc, eh???

East coast, mid west teams better step up. I don't want to travel so far and just play the west coast teams.

COME ONE EAST COAST, MIDWEST, TEXAS TEAMS.

Stock-class Shinobi Squad :ph43r: from Michigan will gladly attend.

I just need to know when I can pre-reg and what salty dog I have to pay off to make it happen.




Rob

Pump Savants from West Virginia should be there.

Hey Tyger my fellow X-Greifer, was it Greif Purple or Gold? I cant remember wich was wich. I talked to the other boys and girl from the glory days and we'll be there.Still gotta get Shane-O, but you know he's game.We can't play as Greif anymore for obvious reasons but we always wanted to play the seafood boys from the goofy coast. Maybe you could fly down and hich a ride with the so called "road trip crew".Imagine the photo ops and related article for that one! Marc says he thinks Greif is going so all eyes will be on them....but be mindfull of the creepy two handed no-namers from the Lou we'll be there somewhere.

Supa "99"

We'll see where we are at after NPPL. We're not the Blowfish but we'd like the opportunity to play Greif as well.

Like Grayarea stated:
The old Greif players that were doing the tournaments include Dave White, Marc Bragg, Glenn Patterson, Shano mac, and myself. We no longer play for Greif, but you can bet if the fish come up we will play. I will get with Sal and see if the Greif kids can come too. Since we left the team Greif for the most part are younger guys, they are still pretty good.
I have a lot of respect for the fish (even know they are some cocky kids) hahahaha
I also have much respect for all the Cali. stock teams.
It would be cool to have a good challenge stock vs. stock.
I am getting married in October, but I will for sure make the trip even if it's my bachelor party trip! hahahaha
Keep us posted!
I have my frying pan ready, I love fish! :D

Sage

sage, this is joe vu from the blowfish......if you show up that would be sweet and by that i mean totally sweet. and congrats to you and your fiancee. even though the rest of the fish might not make the tourny....i'll come out anyway. we'll see what will happen.

Joe vu,
If you come out by yourself it would be awesome to play with you. You guys are always welcome to play with us!
Of course, we are going to have to play against each other sometime!!!
You know that!!!!! :P
This year is messed up, but may be next I can get the guys to save up some cash and we can fly out to a Pan am event.
We have to hook up before I get to old to keep up! hahahaha

So far we are in for this event so at least one team is in no matter what. I think the rest are interested in NPPL SD or LV more than this event, but who knows.

Maybe the rattlers could attend as well, but we do know for sure at least One cali team will be there....

and Special Ed doesn't play NPPL so you'll still have at least 2.

and it is all about Hawaii 2005 fellas. Save you money for that.

What's the info on the 2005 Hawaii tournament? -_-

Awwwwww Man, Special Ed is in..... Better just put amy chair in the dead box now.....It is air conditioned? Does it have a wetbar...do you know???

How bout Total Fish wins NPPL......with tubes and twelve grams!!!!
