what state,
hes planning a capture the flags game in houston in six flags which is where the team party at nats will be. if you leave your email he will email you the dilio (aka info).
i know his speech was bad, but come on you had to get at least one part of that.

Hmmm... I have a cool idea that is more of a scavanger hunt than a capture the flags at Six Flags (ironic).

I doubt 6 flags faculty & security would be openly supportive of this one..... but what do I know?

Is this opened to all teams?! 'Cuz if it is, sounds like fun!:D (Although I'm still a little confused...)

You better have some bizarre way for people to distinguish the following:
a.-Who's actually playing
b.- Who's on the two teams
I can just see some poor kid being tackled by a capture-the-flag fanatic

Hey, what if I'm the only one from my team who's up for this? Do I just register myself then?
(Yeah...my team officially thinks I'm insane...actually, it's probably been on their minds since September:D :D ....j/k!)
BEWARE: Long Post... (Sorry!:yikes: )
Okay, this is how I see it. (BEWARE: I <3 anything that remotely resembles laser tag or capture the flag...but I haven't tried paintball yet... )
This might cost the teams some money...but what about T-shirts? The two teams will have different colored t-shirts with something written on 'em...plus, they'd be a really cool keepsake from Nationals...
Such as: "I played Capture-The-Flag @ Six Flags @ Nationals!" or whatever...
If we get a bunch of teams to participate, I'm sure the order will be big enough to get them at a cheaper price. Then again...there's always flags (Ex: Flag Football...) but I think T-shirts would be a lot better...I know where to get these, I think...
As for division of teams, wait for the teams to send in registerations and the # of ppl on their team...then divide accordingly...probably at random...
But this really sounds like fun!!

Who said i would bring one down there? I work for "The Sports Authority" and i can just purchase one down there. Just give them my employee numbers, and than bam! I'm golden!!
But i'd have to sell it before we leave...:yikes:
doomsdaytank
20-01-2003, 16:20
ok that shirt thing is a good idea i will look into it but it will cost money from people probibly only a couple of dollers so i need everyone who is going to leave there email and how many people from there team are coming so i can get the right amount of shirts. and when all emails are recived this thurs i will put a chat and we can make rules and exactly where it will be
Just pick two t-shirt colors...black/white/green...whatever, and have everyone who wants to play bring one or both, depending on how you want to split up the teams. That way you don't have to worry about collecting money or anything.

you guys make me think about our sanity. capture the flag in the Park? a janitor would probally take our "flags" and pit them in the dumpster.
I'm all for it.
Melissa H.
20-01-2003, 19:58
There's a lot of online sites that allow you to create t-shirts and sell them online...such as Cafepress.com...
But there should be a chat to decided rules and stuff, just so that everyone can contribute.
Harrison
22-01-2003, 15:16
Well, everyone down there will have team t-shirts, so why not just make the 2 teams based on lightness/darkness of the team shirts?
Save some money buying one.
Just a thought.
Matt Attallah
22-01-2003, 21:34
I'm game for skins and shirts...:yikes:
I like that idea about dark/light colors....
Melissa H.
22-01-2003, 22:16
Well, the thing is, we need shirt colors that are different from all other shirt colors because common shirt colors among different teams, such as blues and whites will cause confusion. Some one on my team suggested bright colors to distinguish the teams.
But, I don't know many people who will wear bright greens and orange...;) :p

Running around in the Houston sun in a black shirt might not be too comfy, or dry for that matter.

(I'm very sorry if my previous post was offensive:) )
I didn't mean to say that bright orange and green were bad...but with the weather and amount of sunlight that Houston has...could be a little painful to the eyes...if you know what I mean...(Sorry if I offended anyone with the comment on bright greens and oranges...)

29-01-2003, 15:36
we might use buttons two dif colors all painted one color and remeber it does not have to be in the park we can have it like around the stadium or in the place between them and stuff
all this still to be decided
Melissa H.
29-01-2003, 15:43
Buttons could be cool but from a distance, it might be hard to see who's on what team...just a thought...

17-02-2003, 11:43
ok this dosnt seem to work very well to much things to plan. i dont think it is going to work. last year one was supposed to happen but do to mis comunications it didnt. so i guess i am going to end it unless someone else wants to try
i think we wait untill nats gets closer and try to make a plan then there have been many people who have want to do this i think the only problem(s) are where to meet and how to tell apart the teams both can be worked out some how if people aer still intrested email me at coalchamber2020@aol.com or IM me at coalchamber2020

I agree with the post above. It's too early to figure out all the details.

I'm game (no pun intended) if Big Mike's cool with our team (25) joinin the fun.

24-02-2003, 15:02
If it's alright with everyone, I can set up a quick site with a electronic form so that everyone can sign in themselves and/or their teams and submit suggestions on the whole capture the flag game and any additional information. Then all this information will be sent to whoever is in charge of this whole thing. It's a whole lot easier and all the information will be sent in email format. ^_^ What does everyone think?:confused:
Capture the flag sounds sooo fun. It's closer now since we only have one more month. I don't know what team is representing us. I only have to question the knowing teams apart. Perhaps we should spread this out? aka..make a bunch of little teams and have a torament. Sorry if this is a repeat of someone elses post.
Email me or im me at Brm789@aol.com
wwhy don't we make duct tape X's or O's (or something like that) on the backs of our shirts?
Count me in either way
origanal2@aol.com]origanal2@aol.com
Melissa H.
05-03-2003, 21:06
Yeah! Duct tape X's and O's would work...especially colored duct tape...
Kiwi_queen
05-03-2003, 21:15
I like duct tape very much. sounds like a good idea to me! ;o)
If we qualify...I'm in...along with about 5 of my teammates.
email is on the bottom
LOL. It's a shame we don't have extra moe shirts. Those would stand out! LOL
LOL. It's a shame we don't have extra moe shirts. Those would stand out! LOL

This could work! Kind of like having a bunch of smaller teams and smaller games and one big tournament :D
Melissa H.
25-03-2003, 15:58
Okay, Nationals is about 2 weeks from now...so, I set up something to register teams for the event...not sure about how we're going to do this, but might as well start somewhere.
Register! <--The site looks really bad...sorry...didn't have time to lay it out :( (http://www10.brinkster.com/schsrobotics/register.html)
I'll compile the info and send it to whoever wants it...if you want the info, email me and I'll get it to you ASAP...or I could Forward all the info as it comes, which ever works. :)

getting a paintball gun down to nats wouldn't be that hard really...you just put it with your bags that go under the plane and lock it up and tell them that theres a paintball marker(fancy word for gun)in that... people fly places with real guns. btw anybody actually play paintball or have a marker???
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 16:49
Okay. I've recieved a few forms...
The majority want to use duct tape to identify teams (someone is going to have to bring a lot of duct tape... :p) ...have one big game through out the park...exclude restrooms, rides, resturants, etc., from playing grounds...and meet at a ride near the entrance before the game...
What does everyone think?
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 18:52
im game and im sure my team is too.
email me at darkreddragon@email.toast.net
I would sugesst bandannas, and it could get real interesting if we allow spies, they simply switch colors and sneak in for recon or for a coveret strike. This will be good, might i suggest bubble wrap if we do tackle?
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 18:56
Wow...that is a really awesome idea! Spies would be really cool...and bandanas?! Awesome! (haha...almost typed bananas...:p ) <---eek....quick! Find some bandanas!:eek:
As for the bubble wrap...I might as well buy some...although I wonder if tackling is a good idea;) :p ...but no jobs too big for a little bubble wrap and duct tape...
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 19:00
hmmmm... what other ways can this made fun....
I know, nerf guns!
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 19:18
Oh my goodness...don't get me started on Nerf Guns :p ...lol...I'm waiting for my school to get a Nerf Tournamnet (sp?) going...
Is anyone else thinking water guns?
*goes through closet to find a super soaker*:D
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 19:21
lol, lets play ctf in a wave pool! that could get really interesting and fast
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 19:24
Interesting idea :)
But, do you mean interesting as in when a huge wave crashes over everyone and we're all swept out back to the shallow end, or interesting as in when I discover the inflatable raft and win the game? lol ;) :p
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 19:29
i was thinking that we might drown each other
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 19:39
haha :)
...or drown each other?...interesting:rolleyes:
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 19:41
yeah, i think it has happened before
i think we will stick to land
also, the spies could go no team, it would mean that u would need to know ure team
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 19:48
Good idea:)
*me peers over pool's edge...ends up leaning too far over...and...falls right in*:p
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 19:51
oh no not the asterick actionated chat thingy
*jumps in after, but misses pool at hits a.... ummmm.... ruber duckie? ah yes, a rubber duckie made of ducktape!
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 19:57
LOL!:D
DarkRedDragon
31-03-2003, 20:01
anyone want to have a ducktape olympics? different events in which ducktape has to be applied? that could get a bit sticky, we would probably tape ourselves together!
Melissa H.
31-03-2003, 20:03
Cool idea...start a new thread on that!:)
