[ARCHIVED THREAD] - COLA WARRIOR TEXAS V (Page 2 of 17)
|
I need to clarify a couple of things even though I know no one will read this. No steel cased ammo, M855 etc. If it a magnet sticks to it, leave it at home. If you are a noob from Texas, put it in your post. While we appreciate the offers for help with the event, this is not a spectator sport. If you are not on the run list you will not be allowed to stay on site |

Quoted: Final question: do you have to be there all 3 days? Or can you attend on the day of your run? People have showed up, run, and left a few minutes after running due to them having other commitments. You're missing out on a big part of Cola Warrior if you don't hang out though. |
|
Quoted: To old to run the course, but not to old to help. You can put me down as support staff / logistics / dishwasher or whatever. Been a bucket list item to attend a CW event so ??  Bigger_Hammer  This ain't no spectator sport. Sorry you're afraid of being beat by old fat guys and pregnant women. |

Quoted: Awesome, you get to handle the award for last place.  https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/140663/1000006439-3592157.jpg  |

Quoted: Put me down for night combat please if there's still night slots left. Quoted: In for combat. Quoted: 100% in. No outage scheduled for that week currently. J. Clarkson - “yaaasssssssssssssss” After further review, Mr electric man, will you put me down for combat? |
|
Quoted: Put me down for texas noob. Whatever that means. I have little understanding of this nonsense, but I'm down. Just stopped drinking caffeine too. Texas Noob means you're from Texas and you've never run a cola warrior anywhere before. He's reserving spots for the "speshul" texas kids.

Quoted: What's the difference from combat and noob or whatever? Ive seen a little on t.v. From past events (someone who's not chronically online might chime in w other info): Combat class requirements: Level 3+ special threat hard plates, front and rear 2 rifle mags with ammo 2 pistol mags with ammo At least 1 quart of water Medkit that consists of at least a tourniquet and combat bandage |

Quoted: What's the difference from combat and noob or whatever? Ive seen a little on t.v. Combat Class for Cola Warrior you wear rifle rated plates (level 3+ special threat or higher), your mags with ammo, first aid kit (minimum combat gauze and a TQ), 1 qt/liter of water and it remains on your body for the entirety of your run until you finish the chug. noobs as I said are someone that has never run a cola warrior anywhere. Texas noobs are "speshul" Cola Veteran is someone that has run a cola warrior before, some of us are also kinda "speshul"  Night Combat is combat class but at night.

Quoted: I highly recommend Root Beer in a 2 liter for your first chug. Good to eat like 3 cheeseburgers or spaghetti too right before your run to help soak up that 2 liter. Don't forget to keep your plate carrier cummerbund closed and tight, it helps keep the soda in your stomach |

Quoted: What's the difference from combat and noob or whatever? Ive seen a little on t.v. Simple answers: Noob= new person. These events often fill up quick. The word gets out in the back channels when an event opens up for signups. Having spots for noobs allows for new blood. Everyone runs the exact same course. The different classes are mostly are to challenge yourself further and bragging rights. I do my run in the self proclaimed and nonexistent “Geriatric class”. The only advantage I receive is it’s easier to earn penalties.

ITS HAPENING. I'm bringing a sacrifice/+1 Looking forward to seeing those old and new, not you @brasscrossedrifles . This is not a spectator sport, so there will be no "I'm coming to watch", get fucked. Your wife/kids can come watch you suffer, but are also encouraged to run. For those that know me coming from the east or really wherever, my home will be open for a pool party/bbq saturday after the event. I'm about 2 hours SE of event in 77429. Take a dip, eat some food, then gtfo sunday and go home. Noobs welcome on a don't be a douche basis. Let's have a nice fun weekend. John you game to cook breakfast again? @fortydelta is in for night combat, cuz fuck em. |
