Ouch
Chrono - Carnage Skirmish

I would like to comment on the [Bite The Bullet] issue about the can-made
chronograph. I'd
like to let everyone know that here in Spain we have developed the best home
made chronograph. I am also sorry to say that it is better even than the
real thing. Let me explain...
There is not that much softair action here so if on a day to day basis we
want to skirmish, a maximum of four of us go to the woods and play our famous
"carnage skirmish". Carnage skirmish consists of playing with goggles, a gas
gun or AEG and [usually] short sleeved T-shirts. Basically the difference is
that you [are] not dead when you say "hit", [but] you are dead
when you are in so much pain that your opponent
decides not to shoot you any more (which normally occurs when he has
emptied his clip). Being like this you can probably imagine that gun fights
take place at 3 or 4 meters the at most so it hurts...although after 15
shots or so you donīt feel the pain anymore. Anyways we have developed a system
to measure the Fps that BB's travel at as well as the traveled distance [by
using] a shot-to-cry mathematical ratio as well as a measure of the intensity
and length of the cry.
So if for example you shoot and 0.1 seconds
after you hear "aaaaaaaaaaaarrrrggggggggghhhhhh!" it means
that he is half a meter away, the BB traveled at 346 Fps and that if you hit
him directly on the skin - he is probably bleeding. Once [you understand the
logic behind this] system, please find as follows a brief explanation
of the named shots (you will understand when you read it) followed by a
Fps-cry chart.
Named shots is a trade mark of "The crying game" and any illegal
reproduction will be punished by entering the violator into the crying game
(carnage skirmish jam sessions).

Editor's Comment:
Here in Asia, some seasoned airsoft enthusiasts
enter into similar skirmish matches that are called "Power"
skirmishes. Typical weaponry include AEGs that are modified in excess
of 450fps and sometimes even 500fps. High capacity magazines are a
must and most undergo some home surgery whereby winding up of the magazine
is performed via a motorized mechanism or by way of a lever much like
reeling in a fish on a fishing rod. Needless to say, "Power"
skirmishes are not for the weak and rules dictate that participants only
wear a single layer of camouflage clothing. Tactical vests are not
allowed. You can often identify "Power" players by their
scarred skin, often most prominent on their forearms.
"Power" players aim to defy pain for as long as possible until it
becomes so unbearable that they raise their guns to declare themselves dead,
exactly as described above in Berserk Snoopy above.
We at RedWolf never
understood the appeal of "Power" plays but there remains a large
following in the airsoft world. As long as you play with friends, this
might be bearable. We've heard many horror stories of real violence as
opposing parties get a little too serious about it and end up exchanging
fists instead of BBs. Thanks to Berserk Snoopy though for submitting
this story as it illustrates a different way of skirmishing that some of you
may not have been exposed to!
