NERFCORE Melbourne

I am back! Recently this blog has been on an unannounced hiatus due to a whole plethora of things going on in my life, including working overnight shifts at one of my jobs. And my word, there are some seriously interesting things that happen on overnight shifts when you're working in a quick service restaurant. Not really a story for this blog, but let's just say that one night I was witness to freakin' drug bust on the road next to where a work.

Anyway, I am back, still busy so there won't be super frequent posts, but I am here lurking. First thing I'll post about is something my attention was pointed in the direction of thanks to an anonymous comment, and that is NERFCORE Melbourne. They are leading Nerf parties based in Melbourne, aimed at adult Nerf fans over 18. The events sound pretty damn awesome, their "rumble in the jungle" event was held at Revolt Melbourne Art Space with a fully licensed bar, lights, dance floor and music as well as various prizes. I think the video pretty much explains it all. (Profanity warning, song in the video includes profanity, if you don't like profanity, turn the volume down I guess?)

I haven't seen anything like this before, so it's totally worth posting. It looks like one kickass fun time. Follow NERFCORE Melbourne on the website, Facebook page or Twitter. Times like this I wish I lived in Melbourne...

Nerf Target Challenge: Carlingford Court NSW

Just spotted this one for the Aussies on the Nerf facebook page, It's a promotion by Nerf outside Target at Carlingford Court in NSW and offers the chance to show off your Nerf skills to win gear, which is pretty cool considering not many major Nerf events happen down this end of the globe! It's running until 4pm Sunday, 2nd of October, so there's still 2 days left. More details on the flyer!

So if you're in the area, check it out, or if you already have, leave a comment and tell us what it was all about because unfortunately, I live near Brisbane, so it's definitely more than a casual stroll down the road for me... But hopefully this is a sign that there are more good things to come from Nerf for us Australians!
