Miami Vice was a Success

Miami Vice was definitely not a regular scenario Sunday. More Hawaiian shirts at KPG than you would see in Hawaii, sleazy moustaches, nerf swords, and "gold chains" were in abundance. I think there were approximately 70 players which was good as we were expecting 60-80.

We played a variation of CTF with contraband bags, a hostage game with bases to defend and hostages to rescue with a covert squad, a collect the evidence game with props on the field (only 3 of 5 were found) and cards in headbands for lives/evidence, a traitor game where a young player took out 6-8 of his teammates (he was suppose to go after the leader) before he got taken out, and of course "mayhem" where you could shoot an opponent or barrel tag a teammate to take their raffle ticket(s) that they were carrying (everyone went out with one card, some came back with 10!).

There were some minor glitches which had to be expected for a series of games never played before. However, from player's feedback: everyone was happy with the variation of games, quality of play, sportsmanship, and all around good times.

Thanks to all the sponsors who donated goods to the raffle: Kamloops Paintball Games, KMS Tools, Gary's Deli, Taboo Cycles, Spitfire Grill, The Pig Rig, BuyPbl, and Monster Garage.

Thanks also to all the regular players, the "out of towners", renters, Fighting Hobos, and to all the Oddballs who played with great honour and sportsmanship to make the event a big success. Way to represent everyone!

Now, who is going to plan "Vice 2" for next year?
