RATRATAN 2007 - The Aftermath

OptimusPrime

After catching up with sleep, rest, and letting the jetlag subside, we can proudly say that RATRATAN 2007 was a huge success with many Filipino airsofters playing in the event. Under the blazing hot sun, all the players gamely followed all the game scenarious, enjoying the event. It gave us big smiles to see all these players in action, all honourable ones. This event would not have been possible without the cooperation of players, game site maintainers, and sponsors alike.

We would like to send our heartfelt thanks to all the players, teams, sponsors, and marshals for making RATRATAN 2007 a wonderful event. Even under the scorching heat of the sun, you were all gentlemen and ladies, and played wonderfully!

We hope you have enjoyed your day at Baghdad Libis, and liked all the games that were implemented. We'll make adjustments for the next RATRATAN event, which we hope you will all look forward too.

We would like to give our big thanks to the following:

  1. Our sponsors, Krukspec, 6Mil, RSOV.com, CAOC, Tactical Quartermaster, and Airsplat.com.
  2. ACE Brigade UK, with which the editor is proudly a part of, especially to Team Wildcats - ACE Brigade.
  3. Team Masibeg for driving all the way from Pangasinan under the leadership of BossingVice. Too bad they have to rush back to Pangasinan without waiting for the raffle draw.
  4. To the other teams such as Team SOE (they won the biggest contingent), Team Blitzkreig, Team CTU, Team APC, Team TPAC, and the Action Games League. If we haven't mentioned your team here, our sincere apologies. Please do mention your team name here to be acknowledged.
  5. To Baghdad Libis, headed by Sir Shaq, for the great officiating of the games, and being patient enough with us and the rest of the players. Too bad the place is closing down, we would have preferred conducting RATRATAN yearly at this place. We will definitely miss the place.
  6. To Sir BigBadBear for the admin coordination and other stuff.
  7. To Sirs Ogre and Thinman for the fantastic assist in photography.
  8. To the lonewolves who took their time to play with us.

Our Congratulations to the following:

The winners of the raffle prizes. We hope all the prizes you've won are of much use for you.

To Sirs Steve and Papa Jun for being the most popular players in their groups. They got to bring home the Bandidos and Piratas flags for being voted as such. If you see a player waving the Pirate flag or the Che Gueverra flag, chances are you'll be exchanging bbs with either Sirs Steve or Papa Jun.

Some tidbits:

  1. Papa Jun for having the close-up smile now *wink*wink*
  2. Ma`am Scorpy of the SOE-Pink Squad for having a big fan base among the players. 
  3. Team Blitzkreig for the Pose-and-Assault tactics (they love the cameras) hehehehehe.

NEXT BIG BIG BIG EVENT WILL BE MID-2008. This is something you'll have to watch out for.

And RATRATAN will now become an annual event for Philippine airsoft. Hoping that RATRATAN 2008 will be even bigger and better. Block-out your December calendar for this event. The search for the venue is now on.

Our BIG BIG BIG thanks to everyone.

Event pictures for everyone to enjoy. Soon we'll provide the pictures from Sir Ogre which will surely put to shame the pictures we have taken for this event.
