    Like mine? :P

    I also aprove of the idea of the nerf battle room.

    Have it set up like a laser tag arena but with nerf shit.

    I was thinking of suggesting Laser Tag, but a Nerf War would totally rock too... Then again, Laser Tag does have the advantage of a built in scoring system, which would rock for like, a Laser Tag tournament...

    I also agree that the laser tag would be cooler than nerf. Especially in the case of nerf swords and such, because those can still hurt if someone gets way over excited and just wams someone in the face.

    arnt they renting out the entire Meydenbauer next year anyways? I think it would be well worth it to setup some Laser Tag in one of the rooms...

    Yeah, laser tag is fun, but only if it's at an actual laser tag place. And I bet Meydenbauer doesn't have one built in.

    Those cheap home laser tag toys always suck and don't work well at all.

    Besides, it's not like there are frickin' rules and a point scoring system to a Nerf battle. You just start shooting.

    No teams, no points, just go in to the designated Nerf room and have fun.
    Maybe have one or two security goons to escort out people who get a little over zealous.

    ....and then it is only fun and games for me.

    I kid, I kid 'cause I love. But hey, isn't that what the waivers were for?

    So would this be a Bring Your Own Nerf event, or would a nerf arsenal have to be provided?

    I think a road trip to the laser zone at illusionz next year would be a smart move. It's only about 20 minutes from Meydenbauer.

    they could cordon off the bottom floor of the parking garage. Plenty of room, ambient parking-garage lighting, room to build scenery and shit out of cardboard, should someone so desire...

    I would prefer co-ordinating something with the Bellevue chapter of Fight Club. But that's just me. No accounting for taste.

    And right outside the nerf room of course is the guy with a needle and a empty 12 pack of Bawls, asking other people if they've ever shot Bawls straight into their bloodstream, then proudly proclaiming he is a pioneer in the field.
