Both colors. We even let it sit out open overnight and still the same. Evil dropped the ball IMO, I mean the other three events it shot amazing but Vegas was terrible.
Great venue, great setup, I really enjoyed it all. I look forward to next year.

Obviously not the real McGyver, he would of figured it out using some windex and an old coffee straw.
But in all seriousness, the Evil was like glass. Luckily, my marker managed it just fine.
On Sunday I saw one of the Dynasty guys take a pod of it and roll it out of the pod from about waist high and every single one of them shattered into 3+ pieces.

We shot gold and hellfire for the whole event without a problem. Dropped some evil from half way up my shin and it broke, not cracked but legit broke.

The event was great. Our only complaint was why did they shut down field 3 halfway through sunday. We could have been done around 4-5pm instead of 7:30pm on sunday. Other than that it was all good.

My complaint: Officiating on field 3 was suspect. A bad call was made by a ref and when later questioned about it. The ref denied making the call.
BTW thanks it cost us going into Sunday.
Peace-

People looooove making excuses... Bad calls happen in every other sport too. Refs are human and therefore not perfect. Over all the refs do a really good job but nobody ever gives them props for all of the good calls.
Btw I'm sure your team not making it to Sunday may have had something to do with your other losses in prelims too :-/
Just sayin

AWESOME EVENT! id really say dont change a thing but then again theres always lil things. Its the very first event in years Ive played (7 years) that I really enjoyed. Reffs were on point, purple people puller reminded of #43 Troy P all over the place! Vendors were polite and People were great. Asking questions that we felt proud to answer. Though Id ask that theyd be more tables, there was a small scuffle over a single table.. Really? and maybe a lil more attention to the rosters, I noticed 2 teams in one division with ineligible players and even a banned player.
The event ran very well, games were on time, at times even faster.. Hope to see HB run just as smooth, with those minor changes listed..
As for merger: I heard at the event that the merger would x out NPPL/PSP and the league would be called the super 7. 7man ramping 10bps, no coaching. HB WC and LV were all included.. can you confirm this?

I spoke to the owners and league officals at the event and I can tell you that we are a LONG way away from a merger. I would not expect anything to be worked out for next season.

I think they should put up another set of bleachers behind one or both of the starting gates. i love watching games from behind the starting gate in between my matches and i think it would be a good idea to allow the spectators a different view of the game. especially in 7 man since it is such a team based format. just my opinion

Problem would be safety, too. There was a lot of balls flying over the netting from bounce and I know a lady got nailed in the forehead as she was walking past me.

no one really seemed to voice much concern about balls over the nets and that kinda thing until spectators came into the conversation... not to high jack a thread but what difference does it make, when were not playing many of us are spectating and in that situation it doesnt seem to matter whether there are balls coming over or not..
