Night-Javelin (104)

1 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-01 23:39 ID:quYaZAIM [Del]

A few friends, and myself, came up with a killer game (hence 'KILLER') that could become a sport, if there were enough crazed idiots in the world. Think of an epic version of Lawn Darts.

It's called 'Night-Javelin'. It's where you get a long, slim, flexible and light piece of PVC Pipe, and toss it into the Air, trying to make it flip and stick into the ground. The straighter the stick, the higher the points. The more flips, the higher the points.

The pipe has to be sharpened on both ends, and more points are given to those who can catch it before it sticks into the ground. Catch it, and their flip points are given to the catchers.


You play this at night, preferably hardly any light being near.
Best to wear thick gloves, head protection and eye protection along with thick pants and boots.

We haven't played it for a few years, but we plan on getting the group back together and making a Youtube video of it, this time around.

We've got to perfect the Pointing System for the sticking, though. Any idea on how we could go about fixing that?

Bump.

3 Name: Nomura_Mangaka* !kGDW0ZgPaE : 2012-02-02 21:25 ID:5ARLxTek [Del]

This frightens me.... but I really like the idea...

4 Name: Andoru !AndoRu/ek2 : 2012-02-03 00:10 ID:k0dVI2/E [Del]

If you youtube it, keep the camera rollin'n'trollin till you get to the hospital! :D
also on points:

flip:1
each flip adds a .25 multiplier

Catch would be: Flips+.25X[x]+.25

pipe angle determined by a speed square;
0-9: 5
10-24: 3
25:34: 2
35:44: 1
45+: 0
Not-stuck-in: no flip bonus and -3 points.

average pipe size: 3'x1/2[?]

cut: one point 45 degree cut[?]

sound good?

5 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-03 00:12 ID:quYaZAIM [Del]

We have fun as all FUCK when playing this.
It's a very dangerous, yet very fun and exhilarating game.

It only works good when at night.

I also created a Facebook group for it. Just search for it's name in the Group section, and you should find it. Logo is a blue skull with a person in it, throwing a Javelin.

>>4
Also sounds...do-able.
Though maybe think of the ground as a DART-BOARD/Graph. Straighter up into the air it is, when in the ground, 10 points.

If angled to the sides, 5. If laying on the ground, 2 points.

7 Name: Andoru !AndoRu/ek2 : 2012-02-03 00:21 ID:k0dVI2/E [Del]

And 10 points for stabbing the catcher!

8 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-03 00:25 ID:quYaZAIM [Del]

My friend actually stabbed his hand catching it, and yet he still held onto it. He took one for the team.

9 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-03 12:55 ID:quYaZAIM [Del]

Bump.
If you decide to do my sport, record it, and join the Facebook group, and post the videos there.

13 Name: Nomura_Mangaka* !.MANGAC3rs : 2012-02-04 09:04 ID:5ARLxTek [Del]

I do. The moment I can, I'm going to round up some friends. this sounds freaking amazing, though dangerous. But, I could honestly not care less about me, so...

14 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-04 15:43 ID:T7GEpErO [Del]

It's SUPER dangerous but worth it. Also each time you're not hurt, adds more adrenaline and makes you happy.

Basically each time you're not hurt, adds in a bit of moral, as well.

15 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-04 18:05 ID:T7GEpErO [Del]

Remember, when you do it, record it, with enough light around you to still be hard to see when playing the sport, but good enough to see it on the video to know what's going on. Then post it on the Group page on Facebook.

Remember this, though. Please no playing copyrighted music on the video.

23 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-12 22:51 ID:ZBtG/Ug3 [Del]

No, easier to see. Making it that much less fun.

To make it LOOK cooler, and safer, yes.
To keep it at the same level of fun, no.

When recording videos, it might be best to have it glow in the dark, though.

24 Name: Andoru !AndoRu/ek2 : 2012-02-13 02:41 ID:k0dVI2/E [Del]

>>22 Thiamor just wants to make you bleed.

Next sport, Bear stabbing!

25 Name: CelticMaster !vMfB/HjmOc : 2012-02-13 04:58 ID:JEylk47B [Del]

I just meant to look cooler

>>24
If you're not bleeding, you're doing it wrong, and joined the WRONG type of game.

27 Name: Nomura_Mangaka* !MANGAS6Kfg : 2012-02-16 13:04 ID:JOM3l1CU [Del]

>>24 True, and this.

>>26 Again, true.

Celtic, if it glows, you've lost all the fun. If you bleed, and have fucking fun doing it, then you understand the game.

Why can I find no friends to play this with...?

28 Name: Black Haru !4Wf3m.ar1o : 2012-02-16 16:53 ID:R7rJDcvv [Del]

I am going to introduce this game to some stupid kids I know, with the hope that one of them may get a javelin to the jugular.

Would this be natural selection at work, or perhaps unnatural?

29 Name: Nomura_Mangaka* !MANGAS6Kfg : 2012-02-17 10:23 ID:JOM3l1CU [Del]

>>28 Nah, if they play it, and kill themselves, that's natural selection. They should know their limitations. Unnatural would be doing it, knowing their limitations as too low.

I, for example, am a scourge on this world. I know my limitations, however I wish to play either way. And, perhaps I will take a javelin to the jugular.

30 Name: CelticMaster !vMfB/HjmOc : 2012-02-17 15:34 ID:863NBK0H [Del]

>>27 i was honestly thinking as something to watch, playing without the glow sounds much more fun, and i would be willing to play

32 Name: King Dude !zXqFpoplY6 : 2012-02-19 05:31 ID:Kke4UL/1 [Del]

Hey if you are gonna sharpen a PVC pipe at both ends, isn't it going to be very hard to get a point on a pipe?

33 Name: Black Haru !4Wf3m.ar1o : 2012-02-19 10:06 ID:QwTWqDqR [Del]

>>32
It's actually not all that difficult, you won't get a sharp tip like a pencil, but there is a way. If I was at my computer, I'd get a picture for you

src/1329714524838.png: 306x658, 8 kb
What you do, is basically chip away at the end rings until 1 part is higher above the hole, and sharper. Then you get sand paper and sand it down. On both ends. This way, it then makes a sharp point as shown in the image.

35 Name: CelticMaster !vMfB/HjmOc : 2012-02-20 12:20 ID:863NBK0H [Del]

i would have done it so the tip was in the middle, so that there are two very sharp points.

36 Name: Nomura_Mangaka* !MANGAS6Kfg : 2012-02-20 13:16 ID:JOM3l1CU [Del]

>>35 How? Pipes are hollow. >>34 is the method.

src/1329791706795.png: 816x537, 14 kb
this is how i would think to do it

38 Name: CelticMaster !vMfB/HjmOc : 2012-02-20 20:35 ID:863NBK0H [Del]

i only worked on one side, and the one on the left is the side few of the points

39 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-20 23:11 ID:BHNOoxQr (Image: 962x608 png, 18 kb) [Del]

The more simple way, is my way, since you'd end up having a really short PVC Pipe in the end, using your way. Not to mention, with it being hollow, it'd be more prone to breaking when cutting it into smaller pieces.


The fact it's round plastic, basically, makes the actual walling around it weaker, not also counting the actual size of it.

When chopping it into a smaller piece, the walling also becomes less stable due to it can't equally spread out any force down the tube, quicker, given it's now smaller. Thus any hard pressure can easily snap the little ring/point.


Now also because it's more of a ring shape, it's also near impossible to shape it into a point, one good enough not to break.

40 Name: Thiamor !yZIDc0XLZY : 2012-02-20 23:13 ID:BHNOoxQr [Del]

Or so I think. I can't explain my thinking too well.

>>51
Why bump it? Because it's bump worthy.
It's not a joke. Why not bother going to every type of topic or website that has an extreme sport in it, and tell them what they like and what they do, it should more so be a joke?

This is for people who like very dangerous things. That is it. It's fun, and really dangerous.

We really did this. I wasn't lying when I said we did.

53 Name: Nomura_Mangaka* !MANGAS6Kfg : 2012-03-07 11:49 ID:JOM3l1CU [Del]

Ahem. Andoru, this game is amazing. Lke Thiamor says, it is an extreme, an dangerous, sport. It has merit, too, for bringing some traffic to the sports board. Either way, it's a good sport, and deserves the bumps.

Heh...I used to do this kind of thing when I was younger...just with an actual metal javelin. There was no winner...we just basically threw it up and tried to catch it. Surprisingly, nobody got hurt! I like your version MUCH better...less dangerous...much less dangerous.

I used to play a game called WAR! with my brothers and friends. We divide into teams and play a capture the flag type game in the growing darkness of night. The ammo used is bricks, boards with nails, javelins, etc. Throw and dodge to claim the other flag. It was fun, but stopped when people became terrified of getting seriously hurt.

It is a bit like mine, but way different, because it is NOT THIS GAME, and we only throw 1 thing around. So please, keep it off here, or make your own topic for it.
