cherno_journo - Cherno Journo Is Kidnapped BMRF Event

0:50:00- You can see Merrit and I having a shootout with 4-5 players and a white car. Merrit had an AK with 1 mag and I had an MP5. We took at all of them and looted their bodies and took the car. We had no idea they were trying to shoot at us from on top of the tall Industrial building.

2:35:00- Our massive shootout of the night. With Sly giving us their exact coordinates we positioned ourselves up on the hilltop. Smoken had a DMR, Merrit had an M107, and Rooster and I had assault rifles. We took out all of them and Smoken almost saved Cherno before he was executed. He killed the executor just after he killed Cherno. Massive amounts of weapons and loot after that shootout.

4:19:00- Our second shootout. Sly dropped Smoken, Merrit, and I off right in front of their position. To give you some background Cherno Journo is supposed to be in a very distinguishable outfit so no one will shoot him. Some asshole decided to choose the same exact outfit as him the whole entire night so it was very hard to figure out which person was Cherno Journo. That was me who shoot Cherno with my M14 and then you can hear me say, "Run for your life Chenro!" I had no idea I had just killed him. We all ended up being killed in that fight.

I stopped playing after that, so I don't know what other minute marks you can see TPGers in action. If someone knows where else you can see TPGers, post the minute marks.

The last death of Cherno is by Smoken. You can hear Smoken yell, "I'm coming to bandage!" Syrx was with him also. I think that was our groups closest attempt to capturing him. SO CLOSE Smoken!!! We'll get him this weekend.

It's a tough balance because I could just hide behind a rock, but that's dull for the stream to watch, but towards the end I kind of worked out that when shots are fired to move away and keep the firefight in my sights. I also stop giving out information to either side when moved away so as to not provide an advantage.

I think I'll adjust the rules that during a firefight I don't attempt to escape from kidnappers but move to a neutral safe position and await the conclusion. Although there were a couple of times where both kidnappers and bodyguards need help and I jump into bloodbag/bandage them. So I might also add to the rules that during a firefight I won't provide any assistance to either side until it's concluded, unless it's Zed management, I love shooting Zeds.

The event was great fun and the thing about doing it is that we get to learn even more and adjust for the next one. I thought this one had a really good balance of kidnappers and bodyguards. There were some complaints about the bodyguard group being so big but MR Blonde Ops and his team showed that it's not the size that matters it's tactics. Attackers also have the advantage of intelligence - they can see what's happening and where everyone is on teh stream live. You couldn't ask for better information for an ambush.

They managed to take both big groups down, who were well geared up, and as he says had I not been standing in the middle of the firefight, they would have nabbed me too. A big group is just more people to kill and I'm editing the highlight video in 720p right now that shows the chaos that ensures for the bodyguards every time they're ambushed.

All in all a great show, lots of fun, and we'll do it all again. Any suggestions please post here so I can work with the admins to adjust the rules.
