do not leave anything in your vehicle at the match hotel.. 4 shooters vehicles got hit last night. 3 people lost ammo and i lost about $2000 worth of gear!
 
Crappy.

I ended up shooting 4 stages today (save me some time from having to do all of 'em tomorrow!) and it turns out that I have to reshoot one of 'em because my time didn't get written down on either the score card, nor my part of the ticket. Dangit.

Ah well, I'll be out again in the morning.

Slavex, was that you limping around by the "walk the plank" match around 5:30 or 6?

I was the gent in the slightly loud orange shirt.

Good match. One stage was removed. I shot ok today,..I had my first mike,..and my first penalty target. My penalty was just barely cutting into the D, but was (argh)...happened on the 50 yard poppers stage. Most production team shooters are done. Yeah some POS thieves stole some shooters belongings. I got lucky.
 
If someone gets the production results (top ten),...could you post them...(first names )
might be out be tomorrow evening I assume.
 
NavyShooter, yeah that was me. tore the #### out of my heel on my prep on range 5. I gotta give thanks to Carmine for all his help afterwards (if anyone can supply me with his mailing addy it would be appreciated), I'm still screwed, but he really went above and beyond helping me. I would also like to thank my squad for being so supportive and understanding after the injury. I could barely walk to shoot, so there was no patching or helping set steel or anything like that. My squad, including people that weren't shooting, really stepped up and helped out. you guys are all awesome, thanks thanks thanks. A big thanks to the RO's and CRO's for being understanding too. you guys have done an awesome job this week and I know today was already trying enough, having my limping ass too contend with couldn't have been easy. Also a big thanks to Rob Elliot, a better room mate I couldn't have. He stuck around after they were done shooting this morning and helped me out too. I owe a lot of people beers/shooters, or whatever you drink.
Now a bit of a negative. The actions displayed today by one particular shooter, stiring the pot, causing a massive ####storm was simply unacceptable. I seriously hope that our board of directors sees fit to have him at least DQ'd for unsportsmanlike conduct, and I think he should be sanctioned and not allowed to shoot IPSC for at least a year. If I was in charge it would be a lifetime ban. This particular shooter has caused #### and bad feelings at pretty much every match I've ever been too and is the single biggest negative influence I've ever seen in the shooting sports. Thanks to his selfishness and blatant stupidity we all suffered and lost a very cool stage as a result. Thanks ####### I hope people remember what you did vividly.
To Jim, Sean and everyone else involved with this match you have my thanks for a great match and my sympathies for what occured today.
 
Ah crap Man...what happened?? Sounds like you blew a tire!

Plus 1 on Rob and Carmine...

I've always had a tremendice amount of respect for Rob...and I think I answered a previous question about Carmine...

I wish we had 10 more just like them...

Were you able to finish the match?

See you tomorrow
Q
 
Word is he was already dq which brought on the unsportsmanlike behaviour.

Personally I think it was pretty nice of him to drag his pnematic stage from Ontario to here. Not so nice to drag it back before everyone shot, but that is life. I know that if I was DQ I would go home immediately and take my stuff with me. Like everyone else I am putting my responsibilities on hold so that I can play at the Canadian Nationals.

I fired an employee on Monday of this week. She flipped out as do most of the folks that I have had to fire over the years. To me this does not make her a bad person it just means that she does not have the coping skills to deal with getting canned.

The Dude that was DQed just does not have the coping skills necessary to deal with that. The guy that dqed with bowling ball. Did it with a lot of Class and ROed 12 hours a day for the rest of the shoot with a smile. That's clas s, but not everybody is capable of that and thats life.

Slavex,

You mean A. S. and not W. H., correct?
