Sorry for the lateness of the posting…but I’ve been working nights since Monday. (The real world sux sometimes!) Anyways…DHS’s Thank you shout outs! Here we go!
There are Four things a game producer HAS to have in order to put on a successful game. Great refs, Players, a field, and Generals. Let’s start with the latter of these…
Reid, aka “Reiper69” (aka now forever known as “NomNom”! Hey…don’t blame me…that’s your buddies that named you!!)
You couldn’t tell it was your first game as a commander. You led your troops through thick and thin scrapping for every point you got. Your “never say die” attitude lent credibility to Eddie Haskell, and regardless of the situation, you always had a smile. You led with your heart and the troops followed. I would be proud to have you command for us again!
Melissa, aka “Bunny”. For a last minute commander…you certainly took the reigns and led these fellows on a hell of a run! You played it very smart, and very fair. You listened to those around you with experience, and it paid off. Every time I spoke to you during the event, you were cheerful and happy, even when reid blew up your first Tank even before it left the airport. Great skills, troop management, attitude and support staff! River needs to watch her butt, you’re going to be one hell of an opponent in December!
Flash, aka Arms Dealer. Thank you for all of your hard work, running all over the field, and back and forth between bases. You made the game turn out just the way we envisioned it. Hope you enjoyed your bribes!
Next: the field and owner. Tactical has come a Loooong way since the beginning. It boasts some great structures, great playability, and a great Owner. Thanks Jon for believing in us enough to trust your field in our hands and giving us the opportunity to come out there and put the players through their paces. We greatly appreciate the full comp donation to the prize package for the “We were Soldiers” in December and Animal, and myself look forward to playing in that event! And also thanks for helping us support the “Young Guns Scholarship Program. As for the book “Break Point”, I’ve got two words for everybody out there…BUY IT!!! It’s a fast moving and phenomenal read! (I didn’t know you had it in you!!!) Thanks to Devil for taking care of us and making sure we had everything else we needed. We look forward to coming back in ’10!
Players: You guys were the greatest! The sportsmanship was awesome, the reception to DHS was warm and friendly, and the game was always an intense nail biter! Judging from the smiles everyone was wearing at the end of the event..I’d say we all had a great time! Thanks for stepping into “Our World” for a day!
The Refs: Captain Mav and his crew provided OUTSTANDING reffing and blended seamlessly into the DHS staff of Seven, Animal, and Rainman. Coms were outstanding and not a single mission was missed! It was an honor and a privaledge to work with all of you! Your concern for not only the players, but the sport itself is a huge asset to anyone running a game. The event went as smoothly as it did directly because of your efforts! Thank you!
The Sponsors:
Liam and Nina from the “Pirates Cove” at the Renfair. Thank you, thank you, Thank you! Your generosity to the players is second only to the absolutely kewl stuff you give away at our events! No matter what we throw out there for a game…you always find something unique to put in that amps the storyline up another notch. We are very fortunate to have you folks supporting us, and we and the players appreciate it greatly!
Tank…you never cease to amaze me. Thank you for your support of DHS events and all the stuff you threw in for the players! Hope you had a blast guy!
Danny Powell of Designer Paintball. Danny…thank you so much for everything you do for us! Quality products from a quality person..for the players! Thanks for having our backs.
Charles from The Signs and Graphics Company. Thanks for the support you give us and for the banners you provide for the players! This event’s prize was donated to the “Alter Ego Young Guns Scholarship Program”. After privately polling several players and staff, the decision was made to donate it to this worthy cause. Thank you bro!
Glenn from PPS…well pops…what do I say except THANK YOU for supporting us from day 1! (Lifts that glass of Glen Fiddich in an appropriate toast!)
Tony from Smokin’ Products…thank you brother! You still got the best Paintball Pants on the market and I wouldn’t wear ANYTHING else! We appreciate your support and can’t wait for the new line to come out!
Paul from Hammerhead…dude you shoot what works for you and that’s why I shoot a Hammerhead. We appreciate the high quality barrels that you send to the players for each and every game. Thanks for your continued support!
John from Pro-Edge Paintball..Thanks John for being one of our local supporters The players and DHS appreciate the donations to the prize packages and we are proud to be supported by you. I’ll be in to see you this weekend!
TXR Paintball…While you guys may not be “Official Sponsors” we appreciate the donations to the prize package! It speaks worlds of you folks when you help push the game forward by taking the “It’s for the players” stance, and we at DHS greatly appreciate it! Thank you from all of us!
And Finally…The one person who supports me in all my endeavors and keeps me straight on the path, my loving wife Karey. Sweetie…without you and your support, I may have never had the opportunity to realize this dream. Thank you so much for believing in me and helping me out with everything you do to make this the success it is!
