I now say that I'm finished enough with Leftovers to make a topic about it. What is Leftovers? A homemade PowerPak. I put a 5/64"(just a bit bigger than 1/16") nozzle on it, which makes the output about 1X, and it shot for 2 minutes 21 seconds, that's more than twice that of the PowerPak, and way way more than a Splashzooka. I know what you're thinking, you think I'm lying but I'm not. The range was a big improvement over from when it had a 7X-8X sized nozzle, that got 33 feet, this was at leat 5-10 feet more.

I can't believe how great of a weapon this is. I love it, this and my CPS 1000 are my main weapons now(at least until Threshold is done). I have a picture of it shooting, but it doesn't show how good it is, and I need to censor out my face, so I'll post a pic of it full. The tubing is like a sausage, and it extends at least 3 times it's original size.

Yeah, it is sorta akward when it's that full, I should add a belt to the bottom to keep it a bit more stable, but it's not that bad. I've tried to collosus it, but the bike tubes just snapped, and then I tried something using bungie cords, but that didn't work well either.

So tell me what you think, and wait for the guide!

You can pretty much ignore the times on that, I rarely ever have Xfire on when I play. I should, though.
