[QUOTE=monkey11;31721617]The game started with the red flashlights that come with some Nerf Guns. That way visibility was increased a little, yet colors were still hard to make out and it wasn't that much light. We eventually all got a lot better at this game, and could probably be a SWAT team with how thorough and tactical we are, and so the flashlights are out. If you do do flashlights, make them red and just one or two. The first time we ever played, the greenman was between a mattress and a wall, and I couldn't tell if it was him or a blanket, so I poked him with the gun (I had and extended barrel(and im not a pussy) so that was my designated job) a few times and still could not tell. My partner told me it was nothing and left the room, since we had already cleared all the closets and under the bed and shit. Needless to say I got raped. Partner comes back and is freaked the fuck out with me on the floor. Sometimes we play a different variation where everyone is a greenmen (except we only have one green suit) except two people with guns. A house full of monsters is also very scary, but I prefer classic mode. My friends disagree though. To play though you have to be willing to let your house get fucked up. We flip over couches, knock over tables, and set traps and stuff. A good greenman also is a master of fear, and will make it so that things may suddenly move when interacted with. Like a Swiffer Mop on top of a door. One time the greenman took out a nerf guy by throwing a mattress down a flight of stairs. Multi-floor houses work much better[/QUOTE] Oh my fucking god this sounds like so much fun, me and my roommate just bought a shit ton of nerf guns a few months ago, now we just need a suit.

Saying this because I am the friend who owns/is usually the "greenman" that is, wearing a full body green spandex suit, and we always play it at my house. I have never seen a house get more fucked up then when we play this game. Not even parties. But my parents never suspected a thing :smug: But yeah there are so many amazing stories/events about this game but I can't even begin to explain them. [B]A few tips about hiding that i have gained from my stealth experience:[/B] the best places to hide are places where a person looking for you, will literally NOT BELIEVE that you could be. that is, hide in a place where they will consciously or subconsciously accept in their mind that you couldn't be there. the best way to accomplish this is through illusion or being very creative in your hiding. example of hiding with illusion, once while we were playing the greenman game i hid behind my washing machine in our laundry cupboard, i am a pretty big dude, about 6'4 and i made it appear as though there was no space in between the washing machine and the wall, they checked multiple times in there but never found me. that is because they convinced themselves that I couldnt be hiding there. creativity is essential because you need to able to think about the best places to hide. use the environment to your advantage. once we played the game in a completely empty house of ours at night. it was night time i slipped away from the group and put my suit on and hid and they realized and started freaking out and searching for me. because i was creative in my hiding, i was able to remain hidden in nearly plain site in an absolutely empty house for 30 minutes. distractions/traps and deception are incredibly useful for hiding and also getting away if you are found. once, i was hiding and they were getting dangerously close to my hiding place. i grabbed a near by object and threw it such that it went down the stair case and made a noise down there drawing attention away from me and avoiding discovery. there are many ways to pull that off. traps can be set up to inspire fear in the people looking for you. invisible wires can be rigged to have things drop and scare people when they trip them, also things can be set up to drop from the ceiling when a door is opened. there is much more but i believe it is best discovered through experience.

This is possibly the most spergy shit I have read in a while. P.S being stealthy isn't rocket science: stay away from bright shit and try not to make a lot of fucking noise. [editline]15th August 2011[/editline] infact this guide could also be called: How to become a 40 year old virgin

Another thing to consider when buying nerf guns, is dont always go straight for the really awesome fully automatic ones. The game is much scarier when you have a clip of 6 darts, and have to cock your gun between each shot.
When I was little, I hid myself in a clothes basket while playing hide and seek. The person looking for me mistook me for dirty clothes.
Just adding to the OP's information but.. Black clothing--your eyesight can make out a figure in moonlight. If you're trying to "act stealthy" in the night moonlight--then wearing a dark blue shirt. [img]http://www.columbusclay.com/images/FN019_DarkBlue.jpg[/img] This color.
My colleagues at work are now wary of me because I sneak up on them in the warehouse and scare the absolute crap out of them! [editline]15th August 2011[/editline] Pro tips! - When trying to get some chips/crisps, use scissors to open the packet, it will make it much quieter! - When sneaking up on someone, try to visualise what they can see! - If you're sneaking an icecream out of the freezer, take one out and then set it on the side. walk into a room where some people are and show your hands empty, then go back and get your icecream. the people will think you didn't take anything. - If you can't see your targets eyes, it's likely that they can't see you.
I dont understand why all the examples are sneaking food lol. Are you guys not old enough to eat what you want when you want?

So have you gotten your Sam Fisher haircut yet OP?

From Splinter Cell: If you are running from someone and they walk by wherever you are hiding then leave, silently count for 5 minutes, then look around and if it is clear, slowly make your way out. From Snipers: The 8 target indicators that can be used to spot you are: Motion-obvious one, nothing and inanimate objects don't run around Shine-Shiny stuff gives off an unnatural glare, and will draw the eye Shape-Something with straight edges will stand out in an environment of curvy shapes and vice versa Shadow-For example if you wear a big hat it will cast a shadow on your face, but if it is too dark it will stand out Silhouette-If you stand behind a bright object or a light source you will be outlined Spacing-More of a sniper thing, for example if there are occasional bushes and a guy in a ghillie suit with 20 bushes strapped on, he will be noticed. Sitting-Again, more of a sniper thing, If something is crooked looking or unnaturally positioned, it will attract attention Color-Pretty self-explanatory, blend in. Also, many say that pure black does not occur in nature, and will attract attention. Why real snipers don't have black fibres on their ghillies. From me: -When traversing a room, walk along the edges of walls, especially doorways, and avoid the center of the room and/or places where furniture has long stood. These areas are more likely to creak. -If you are pale, cover as much exposed skin as possible, that means gloves, balaclava, and NO SHORTS. -Don't look people directly in the eye, many experts believe it triggers a subconscious "sixth sense" of sorts that alerts them that something's watching. -If you're being chased, do the unexpected. Try and go through holes or windows if you can do it quietly, and if possible loop around to the starting position of your pursuer and hide there, they never expect it. This shit is soooo useful in airsoft. I played in my ghillie suit one day defending somewhere, and I hid in a bush not doing anything and let their whole team advance up to me and past me. When two people were ducking literally 5 feet in front of me I killed them both and ran out through their lines into friendly lines.

I'm fairly good at sneaking around.

Usually in a situation where you would be shooting, hes right there blitzing you. No more than then length of a room or maybe a hallway. And the streamline bullets are becoming the only sort of dart.
I remember one day when my friend was at my door knocking it and bothering me, I told him to fuck off, but he just kept there bothering me, I did the ninja mask, got trough the back door to the street and just went around the corner to find him there knocking. I slowly proceded to aproach him, and when I was crossing the street, I started crouch running and then I grabbed him by putting my forearm over his neck while scream japanese shit He screamed like a little girl and started crying, oh man that was the best thing I've done in my life

I'm gonna go sneak downstairs and get me some pretzels anyone who can walk past their sleeping dog without waking it up while staring at it the whole time is a TRUE master of stealth
I hid in the closet of the guest room and kept the remote with me. The guests came in and where totally freaked out by the TV turning on and off and finally got fed up after I turned the volume up really loud. One of the guests opened up the closet and I jumped out with my T-shirt ninja mask. The guest jumped back in fear and fell on the floor. I tried to dash away ninja style but I was laughing so hard it didn't work. I love stealth.

Hiding in a dumpster isn't very stealthy unless you're doing it to sneak around someone and gain entrance to something
Well, hiding is stealthy to an extent.
Sneaking into the fridge at night and stealing all the icecream All night 'erry night
[QUOTE=LieutenantLeo;31755282]Well, hiding is stealthy to an extent.[/QUOTE] If its part of a bigger scheme. Just sitting and hiding does not mean a whole lot, where as taking cover somewhere to avoid someone seeing you, then continuing on being unseen is very stealthy. Or hiding in plain sight is pretty stealthy. Closets not as much.
One thing to consider when choosing a hiding place is how easy it is to get out. This is important because in case you are discovered, it is handy to be able to make a quick get away. A place may be a really good hiding spot, but if it takes five minutes to get out of it is not as ideal as another good hiding place that can be exited quickly and quietly when its necessary.
I'm gonna try this and walk around my house and look like an idiot when my parents wake up and i look like a crab.
