There are quite a few new people in League this season, and even some who have been there a couple of seasons, but don't know about Sniper. Currently, word of mouth is all that is keeping people in the know. Maybe we need to get Doc to put up a notice for Sniper or something. I don't know...and I'm not sure if I'll be there tonight either...

Although this enforces no standoffs and tagging, there have already been a few occasions where one player has tagged all others in the maze (due to particularly brilliant play!!!) and then had to go camp/hide in the corner until some significant other hits ocurred. This can take some time in a slow game like snipers. It also detracts from the "Where the hell did that come from" aspect. That is why "Last to Active" is not favoured by most of the regular sniper players. It would be good to get Doc to re-instate the old parameters, now that we have tried out the new ones. Hint Hint! Neil Pickford PS For those who do not know what "Last to Active" means. If you tag person A then you cannot tag person A again until someone else tags person A and they come back up.

I personally have other meetings every Monday evening so cannot attend league. If we get a few more people on the mail list then there is a better hope of rallying the numbers each week. (smaller percentage of the total required to turn up) Another idea would be to nominate a particular Friday a month when everyone is free to get a decent game in.

Anyways I am not thinking its worth my sleep getting stuffed up for so if we don't get good showings over the next 2 weeks its cancelled. Sorry to the guys who do show up but 3 - 6 players is not worth it at the moment - maybe after I get some decent rest I will feel differently.
