I've played paintball 5 or 6 times maybe. My weapon of choice is the kamakazi run when you charge headlong into enemy territory, pump 10 rounds into a small child who was cowering in the bunker and then take about 30 shots to the head and neck once everyone catches up with you. Alternatively, I once pioneered the technique of chucking a smoke grenade into someones face (obviously into their mask). If only it was a paint grenade! Ahh ... memories.

Paintball is fun. I remember there was a kinda flame war on here before where someone was claiming it was kinda encouraging people to simulate the act of shooting each other. Can't remember what their stance on FPS games was. All I know is, a lil paint pain never hurt anyone. Shooting someone in the face has never been so socially acceptable.

Edit: I didn't get the smoke grenade stuck in the mask. It just bounced off. But thinking about it, that'd be awesome! Someone running around with a smoking head, knowing they can't take their mask off because they'd get banned by the martials! Bwahahaha.

my gunzorz (spyder tl-r... it's like the "spyder extra" but improved, and with a shiny chrome barrel so people can see me right before they die)

*leeches bandwidth off of other site*

i've been playing for about 2 years... but i've only played about 6 or 7 times (Each one lasting about 3-4 hours and involving about 5 or 6 games)

so i guess you could say i've played about 35 games...

paintball rocks

Ive played it once and loved it. A group of us are going to get some guns this year as my sis has bought a place with a few acres around it. Probably some budget guns to start with as were looking into a couple of quad bikes as well. Should be fun doing some drive bys. I also liked the idea of night vision goggles but I think that will need to wait till next year.

Played twice, each time lasting for whole day. Last time I played was about 15 years ago and I really enjoyed it. Stupid women who took her mask off and got shot in the eye didn't enjoy it so much. She had to be carted off to hospital.

Boo!

Heh, once when i was walking on to the field with some of my friends the dude behind me "Shot at the ground in front of him" but he mis-judged his shot by quite a bit and it hit me in the back of the knee... from 3 feet away...

that left quite a welt... but in a spot that i couldn't really show people... (what am i supposed to do? hike up my pants?? )

Titman Custom 98

I've been playing on and off for about 2 years now.
The first few games were very memorable, I just ran in shooting.
Ah, wonderful times.

me and my friends went once, in an arena, and the ref usually yells "One, Two, Three, GO!" then everyone shoots across the arena,
well, the ref yelled "GO!", I shot, my friend side steps in front of me, and I hit him from at the MOST 1 foot away. He had a nice welt too.
