Re: Another milestone in HBWW's insane(ly stupid) ideas

This sounds like an awesome idea! How about using some cheap (and I mean cheap, you can get them free with magazines sometimes) flash drives and some USB to Micro USB adapters. You would attach the drives to a flag (or something else noticeable) loaded with coordinates of the teams target (target ca...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Thanks for the links =)

The fight has been postponed for 2 weeks or so, as my friend needs to study, and I'm going away for a while. Ah well, eventually I'll get to soak people =p

Re: Help For A Noob???

Yea, didn't think so. The way they ran the 2 R's and the i together makes "Warrior" look like "Wamor" lol And does anyone know why Ebay has loads of Sphinxes, and little else? Why is everyone selling them, and little else? http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=wate...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Thanks for the ideas, I think I'll go with the backpack and water bottle mod, but pass on the strap (I threw out the packaging -_-) And btw, is this legit? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Water-warriors-water-gun-Perfect-for-childrens-party-gifts-3-/251062176821?pt=UK_Home_Garden_Celebrations_Occasions_ET...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Hmm... According to their descriptions, the Shark holds nearly a liter of water, and the Bandit holds well over 2 and a half liters. Seems legit.

Re: Help For A Noob???

I suppose £15 wouldn't be too much more XD I'll try to get a backpack that will dry easily and I will consider doing the bottle mod and adding a strap.

I don't actually know when it is, as my friend hasn't even got a blaster yet =/ we might have to do it on a weekday.

Re: Help For A Noob???

I think the Renegade will do, and you're right, I don't want to buy lots of blasters right now...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Yea, £15 worth of everything, shipping and any accessories included. You're right though, a Bandit underneath would be a good addition to my armory (of 1 XD). BTW, do Toys R Us have any other Water Warriors in disguise? Or just the Steady Stream? (Since I only started to realize Super Soaker weren't...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Yea, but the cheapest option is the Bandit, and unless it is £3 or less, it would mean I break the £15 rule... This is a test of finding a good deal on good blasters as much as it is a water fight.

Maybe an annoying friend?

I don't see any non-fakes... except the Steady Stream, which I don't think is in the image... Which are real?

This is really odd, Toys R Us are selling the original Steady Stream under their Sizzlin' Cool brand o_0 Why? It just makes it harder to find the blaster you want, and hard to pick out the good stuff from the... Well, this: Edit: Broken link =/ tinyurl won't fix either... When the only review says t...

Argos are weird :oo: This reminds of the time I went to Comet and they a Packard Bell liberty tab labeled as an Asus transformer TF101 :lol: I told 2 members of staff and they both told me if the label said it was an Asus it was an Asus, even though it actually said "Packard Bell" on the back -__- A...

Yes, I did get it from Argos XP I wonder why it's a different colour scheme though... And I did take the sticker off, it was annoying me lol. I will try to test how many pumps work best tomorrow, as I can't fire anywhere today with out hitting a "Big Lunch" :P (Street parties held today for the diam...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Thanks for the reply marauder4! Every response so far has been very helpful, so thank you all =D. By the way, the box recommends pumping 10-12 times before filling, not 3-4. Which is correct? (Or have I misunderstood?). One last thing, in every picture of the Ultimate Renegade I've seen, it has had ...

Re: Help For A Noob???

Thanks a lot Andrew, that was extremely helpful! I will be sure to read those articles. I now have an idea of strategy and how to use my Blaster properly, so I guess the rest is up to me :) (although if anyone wants to add something feel free :D ) . Again, thank you all for your help, hopefully I mi...
