20 years ago...

[Layman]

I just realized, if I'm not mistaken, that Carter's Commando was born in 2003. I got to play with a few of you old heads in 2004 at EMR as a part of the SVS. Good memory. Hope all are well, just wanted to pop in and say hi.

[I-tech]

Has it been that long. Time flies.

[Chappy]

I didn’t start playing at EMR regularly until ‘07 but I’d say I remember y’all’s screen names written on bunks in the cold ass barn in Sharpie…

I wasn't playing with CC until 2013, but this ancient artifact indicates the founding was in 2004

Which means there's time to prepare for the big 20 year bash

We're gonna need more Polident and Geritol

[COB]

Break out the Camo wheelchairs, the celebration is coming. Thanks for the ample notice. It will take some of us sometime to get moving.

Was 2003 the first year?

This was Dec. '03 and Prekel, Wyke, and Jincay have their CC patches on.

[Axel]

So you're saying we're too old to remember our birthday. Sounds about right.

[Nish]

I wonder where we put hacker?

netsurferdude2 that was BOTB at OA in Dec. '04 ...it was mine, yours and yellow5's first game, dawning the official "MCB Jersey". I didn't move to that area until Nov. '04. 😉
That is my only "Hawaiian" shirt, bought specifically for that gathering. I've used it for MCB gatherings ever since. My first EMR Castle game was fall of '05.

How dare you correct me. Delete this post or else.

How did you go back in time to change the flyer to fit your side of the story?

[Axel]

Dammit Greg you screwed up

[netsurferdude2]

Did I? Or is Carp pushing lies? No one will ever know. Let the record show, I am correct.

[Axel]

Let the record show that Carp is a liar and a fink, but also that we are moving forward with his falsehoods as they are more convenient

The historical record shall be scrubbed accordingly

I opened up my old hard drive to find some old pics. For some reason I saved an album from one of the rainy castle games (that I didn't attend). I can upload it you guys want.

[spydrmn]

I thought the first official MCB event was Pump Pandemonium the spring of '03. I believe I have pics somewhere.

[hey_yeo]

My Pump Pandemonium patch has 2004 on it. I think first Carter's Commando EMR game in the frozen ass barn was the spring castle that year. 2005 was when enough of us got season passes for the Rasta bunkhouse.

Here is the album I had saved for spring castle 05

2003 Fall Pump castle defense where we failed miserably and lost the quickest ever.

We don't always lose. But when we do lose, we lose spectacularly.
