My P* was never tournament locked, some people got actually hit in the eye from taking their goggles off. Safety was pretty Bad the whole, lack of netting no enforcement on making players use red rags was pretty bad leading to BAD confusion.
I was chrono'ed for the Zombie game shooting 410 with .3's so I know I wached my distance but many other people didnt even chrono so what does that mean safety wise.
Sunday we got to Dead Blood at about 10:15 and were forced to become zombies because we were *late* were told to shut up for being late (I had a paper in my hand that said it started at 11).
Thank you for being candid report of safety issues. We can't have eyes following everybody, so we rely on each player to remind each other to keep their goggles on or use their red rags, just like it's up to each of us to call their hits. If anybody sees a safety violation please bring it up to a orange shirt (field staff) who are tasked with enforcing safety. Or notify your EMBED who will act on it and get me on the horn immediately.
I have to apologize again for losing it and yelling to everybody to shut up when the group you were started complaining about being zombies, but you were all yelling at the same time that I could not get a word in. Sunday's start time had to change due to scheduling conflicts with staff. Be assured this will be addressed before next year.
I don't know who chrono'd you but there's no way you should have been allowed to play with a gun firing 410 with .30's at any event other than a sniper competition. I appreciate you watching your distance. I've spoken to the field and next time we will have a specialized table for gas guns with PB tournament players who know how to spot and lock regulators.
