Sup-air (bassets pole) pictures

I could not move , I had 1 person on the left and right also one coming up the middle. I tried keep switching left to right but the person in the middle took me. Ow well i suppose i will learn from that mistake and do better next time.
Moments when you are surrounded and the last person in are good situations to give your meanest and most agressive war cry. At the same moment engage a suicide run from your bunker and go for the player who you consider the biggest threat to you, then take out as many of the remaining oponents as you can.

Most of the time you will get lit up like a Christmas tree, but there is always that one time when you can be a hero for 5 minutes.

Thanks

as ds said, why wait for the pain, if u are gonna die, then there is the smallest chance you could pull off the best move of your life, on the other hand you might just take one with ya, but thats the fun.

I suppose now i look at it i could of done some thing, But it was my first time and i just panicked really. There was not much communication going on as well, I did not realize that i was on my own till i seen all my players at the side line.

But next time i will try to do better, Because as they say you learn from your mistakes really ! People were very helpful tho given me a phew tips through the day how to do things. But i had fun i think that the main thing. I am just glad it was not a proper tournament, Because i don't think i would of been very popular lol !

I think i remember this game, and i think it was me who was the guy in the middle, and i remember hesitating before coming down because you were covering both sides quite well, but then you spent a little too long on your right hand side.
If you knew you had a guy coming up the middle, you know he#s the biggest threat because he's so blind, so you need to put one of the wide guys in then wrap on him, or move to a close bunker on the other side get the angle on him. E.g if you'd timed yourself running out the right hand side to a close bunker at the same time you expected me to be coming down the middle, I wouldn't be expecting it let alone watching for it.

when i've been in this situation, i've always done that, and usually at least traded with them.

It's all about timing, knowing when someone is likely to move up on you, and allocating just enough time to make them think twice.

In a normal situation you can stop yourself getting mugged by being aware of which bunkers are hot, which are more of a threat and who is covering your ass. So pay attention to your team, ask someone to watch one of your bad guys so you can focus on a zone or something else (e.g snake has a big angle on you but is far away, and tea bag is close but could mug you, I'd tend to post on the snake and get my back guy to watch the tea bag. Or you could try and mug the tea bag before he does you, it depends.)

btw, nice pics, none of me though :p

when i've been in this situation, i run and gunned out to a corner or the nearest bunker, picking a moment i thought the guy in the middle wasn't expecting, and at worst you traded with them.

Thanks for the tips m8, Also the mugging lol Yeah i wish i took more pictures through the day. At the next walk on sup-air ill bring my camera again and get a few more pictures and try and get every one in the frame.

Will you be at the next one ? What were you wearing any ways ? Also i hope to be bit better and try and progress my game. But i did think one end was easyer to play than the other ! Did any one else think that ?

yeah lol they had to replace one of the little pasties with a standup after someone broke it so it kinda messed up the field but NPF has plans to re-do the turf and field (or so i hear) so it should be more even sometime soon.

I was wearing grey angel 05' cus it was too wet for the ol' alex lundqvist Jersey :D umm also grey JT pants....oh yeah Red gloss A1 :D, ill seeya next time for sure, my team organizes and marshalls it :p

Also we usually do drills in the afternoon instead of carrying on with games, so people can do training as well as playing :)

NPF is owned by WDP, so it's kinda like NQ being owned by Planet, thats why theres so many angels ;)

if you speak to the marshalls after we've usually got some insight after watching the games so just ask, I always try and give tips and stuff when i can.
