Ok. I'm thinking of having a gladiator-style contest, but using snipers in an area about ten miles squared. The jousts will be one-on-one, and they could last for days or weeks on end. I, personally, will not participate so I can judge and tell you what the snipers can see. I just want to know who's interested. If you are, please post your character's name and a short bio. Pics are optional, but make it better. This whole tournament will be in honor of Carlos Hathcock (thus the white feather). If you do not know who Gunney Hathcock is, read this page and you'll find out.

Sounds interesting. I might participate, but I'll need a little more information. How will this work? Will they just a bunch of snipers, and their mission is to kill each other until there's only one left? Or will it be a one on one style elimination tournament?

Its like a gladiator match using MILES gear. Its one-on-one in one section, mission based in another, and the third is accuracy. The winner will be the on who has the highest score. The sniper-on-sniper battles and the mission will count more than the shooting match. If you read the link, you'll be one step ahead. Don't be afraid to ask.

I'm doing this out of respect for Carlos Hathcock and I wish to become a USMC scout/sniper. Just so you know.
