    Paintball stuff

    I played on Sunday for the first time this year over at On Target. It was a beautiful day and the place was the most crowded I've ever seen (150 people according to the guys running the place.) My team got some good 7 on 7 practice in for the tourney this coming weekend. We're playing next Sunday in this GPL event (see link).

    And the billboards are all leering
    And the flags are all dead at the top of their poles.

    Just got back from the tourney. Out of 32 teams we placed 3rd. Won a tank and some other goodies...I'll blog the details later along with some pictures, but it was a great time. Long day...the last game occured after dark (and the field had no lights!) We basically charged the flag for the final pull. It was nuts... We missed out on second place by 20pts (which is unfortunate because the prize for that included new Ions...

    Sounds like a lot of fun! Great finish in the standings for your first tournament. Is Sunday now a permanent team practice day at On Target or will they still have walkon days? I'd like to get back up there sometime after a less-than-stellar first impression from the ECX field.

    Sundays are always walk-on days at On-Target... Sometimes we hold practices and they give us our own field and refs to work with, but the rest of the place is the same as it always is. I'll let you know the next time I'm going...hopefully you can make it.

    It won't be this weekend though... NFL DRAFT!

    BTW, the tank we got is a 68ci/4500psi...sells for around $200. Not bad winnings but we were so close to the guns it wasn't funny. If we won 1 more game we would've taken the whole thing, and the prize for first was brand new Intimidators and an xbox.

    Next time!

    Pics are up over at Squidly.com. Including a bloody welt pic..

    Another guy was talking photos of the actually gameplay. When I get a copy of the pics from him I'll post them as well.
