ya im on para, no by that comment i meant instead of a solid top i wish I could just wear my TDU multicam shirt
No no, the problem at hand is that multicam is in current use by the US military, and thus is a Military-faction reserved pattern. Looking at the rules though, what we intended and what we wrote are two wholly different things... the intention was that military would be able to use any current US military pattern (ACU, ABU, DCU, AOR1/2, MARPAT/DESPAT, Multicam), and para would get solid color jumpsuits, one-color uniforms (black pants/black shirt and such), or obsolete US military (tigerstripe and woodland, etc) or non-US military camo pattern pants (DPM, flecktarn, etc) with a solid-color top. Looking at the rules we wrote though, that's not what we said at all. I'll have to see if this was widely misunderstood, as I suspect it may be. If it was, we'll just go with the rules we wrote.
soooooooooo....i can wear multicam pants? lol im sorry that was confusing.
I dunno, we're going to have to see how many people were planning on wearing current US camo patterns as bottoms on Para. I asked the question in the thread for OP:ZH, but no responses yet. If it's only one or two people, you might want to look into alternate pants, but if it's a bunch we'll let it slide. I guess we didn't think over how ambiguous what we wrote in the rules was.
I perceived it to be a solid color or noncurrent military camo for TOPS and any camo for pants. But I could be wrong.
Yeah, looking back on it now, that's what we wrote, but it's not what we meant to write.

lol oh ok. Well that would probably be why there is confusion then.

I will be wearing multicam pants if it will be allowed.

Ok so looking through the field gave me an idea. What if we could get everyone to get a corresponding costume for the certain area they are in? For example, there is a Marine Corps bus that could have several people in military uniforms. Another place has a southern style layout(redneck) and a rocking chair out back that another zombie could dress up in overalls and sit there. A incinerator-type place that you have to crawl through could have some "burnt-flesh" zombies. A school house having teacher zombie look. Just a few thoughts I have out of many. Some of the other ideas are to remain a secret in case they were intentionally made to be a surprise to us. Ill just have to keep communicating with PSC about it and see how everything goes.


(My phone is down until Monday just an FYI for those that it applies to)

Here are some ideas for those of you who have yet to think of a costume


US marines
SLENDERMAN
scarecrows
Civilians(think touristy looking)
Old grandma
Venders
Chemical workers(painters overalls with gas mask)
Scientists
Police

All of these ideas I got from seeing the field. They all relate to different areas of the field.

I'd like to get all the zombies together through phone or Skype or something else to discuss what Each ones plans are. Let me know either through PM or response to the topic of your up for that Idea.

I've been thinking about going as Slenderman, but lately it seems like every other person wants to be Slenderman this Halloween.

Well first off you gotta be tall. He is also "passive" in the sense that you don't shoot SLENDERMAN, he watches from afar. Plus, I got some stilts that go great with a SLENDERMAN costume. Makes you 2 1/2 feet taller.


The reasoning behind all the ideas was the areas I saw on the field. IE a US Marine Corps bus.

Shit that's good. I'm willing to make the claws and accessories for t if someone wants to go as it.
