USPSA PB Jan16 - A Fresh Start, First Match of the Year
My first match of 2016 and it was a fun one. The stages were elaborate and fun to shoot, all except that blasted classifier. It's almost impossible to consciously shoot 100% in it. You have to be hosing like crazy and hope it hits. My run only yielded me a 63%, and 77% if I didn't get that one mike.
Apart from that, I'm lacking some dot discipline especially while moving. Oh and a note to self, don't snag fault line "ropes" with your holster anymore.
This was a charity match put up by a local club to support the U.S Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program. You can find out more about this foundation at http://www.toysfortots.org.
I shot a somewhat crappy match with lousy footwork and very sloppy hits. I should slow down a little and focus on getting more alphas / hits on steel. I think I came in 2nd place although the scores said I won the division, ChrisF is a much better shooter and he won almost all the stages but he didn't have any score in one of them. It must have been a scoring error as this was the first time they tried electronic scoring with Practiscore.

After a tough few weeks of testing, we finally got to a place where the build is stable enough to be released on Steam Early Access. We're looking forward to hearing from everyone what you think about the game. Please mind the bugs as there are bound to be many.
We'll be posting regular updates for the game and hope to bring new content every week or two.
Thank you all for your support!

My first match after coming back from the holidays. Rusty and I had issues with my dot. it was like 4" low. adjusted it mid match and everything went better after that. Not sure how that happened but, hey, it's best to find out these things now before a major match.

Week #26. Lots of updates this week, starting off with a Multiplayer only Shoot Off stage where players can compete to see who can shoot a plate rack, reload and shoot a popper the fastest. Wracked my brain on how to handle synchronized start and determine who the winner is taking into consideration network lag. Modeled a physics enabled popper, fixed death star from falling apart and some audio features for multiplayer.
Changelog v0.38
* Multiplayer Only Shoot Off Stage
* Gallery is multiplayer enabled
* Synchronized Start & Winner determination
* Physics Enabled Popper
* Fixed Death Star stability
* Audio effects when create / join room
* Enable and Disable Multiplayer Voice chat
Enjoy!

Lots the match by 6 match points, it all came down to the one mike in the last stage as I was transitioning off an easy target. Congrats to Nick to staying in it and beating me.

You know you're desperate when you'd brave the snowstorm and drive 90mins to a 5 stage local match. :)
I'm glad I did!
I wore the wrong shoes but it was the only waterproof boots I had. Oh well.

This was a fun short (109 rounds) match at the Marysville Rifle Club. I shot pretty decently except for stage five where we can only shoot four rounds per box, I took one extra shot and did not realize that I did it. We had to confirm whether I did it using the timer and as you can see from the video, I did take 5 shots in the first position, resulting in one procedural.
Anyway, I realize I shoot much better relaxed. Stress gets the better of me. Still need to do more work to be able to beat Nick and Tim, who are so much faster than I am.
