went today as an early birthday event thing.

quite fun, should have pics up soon from their site.

quite a few red welts lol.

protip: getting hit on the top of the head paralyses you with pain for a good 20 seconds :lol:

I think the highlight was the finishing free for all. I was in a hut thing, and one of my friends was crouching behind barrels outside, but the top of this head was just about showing. I'm a pretty good shot, so I was pelting him in the head, a good 5 hits, laughing maniacally at his cries of pain :lol:
I figured I'd go call a truce with him, since he was preventing me from attacking anyone else anyway. it was fine for a few minutes, then he got me in the back.
we were the only people with ammo left by that point, so we were made to do a duel. walk so far, turn around shoot. After his treachery, I decided to bring out the dirty tactics :mrgreen: it so happened that I walked into an area with barrels, whilst he walked into the open. So, at the signal, I immediately dive behind the barrels, come back up and pelt him in the open :rofl:

good day, but quite horrifying in parts. never know when you're gonna get one in the neck or head.

Wealth and power are means to women; women are means to genetic eternity.

Likewise, deep in the mind of modern woman is the same hunter-gatherer calculator, too recently evolved to have changed much: strive to acquire a provider husband who will invest food and care in your children; strive to find a lover who can give those children first-class genes. Only if she is very lucky will they both be the same man . . . Men are to be exploited as providers of parental care, wealth and genes." - Matt Ridley "The Red Queen"

I always end up being the last person with ammo because I just hide. No one shoots at me so I feel invinsible and stand up. Then get murdered. Of course everyone expects me to them give them my ammo. At least that is what happened the one time.

there were a couple of times I was pinned down behind cover, and they ended up flanking me. I usually tried to blind people by hitting them in the goggles, while giving cover fire for the quicker people.

there was one great hut, someone had seemed to punch a hole just big enough for the gun to fit through, took out 3 people in one game from there.

Yeah, but with paint balling you KNOW you've been hit! :sunglasses:

I went once as a staff party. Loved it. It was a horrible miserable rainy day. Perfect! The wind made the guns even less accurate than they usually are, but I still had fun. Got hit on the hand and that stung for hours. Took a couple of headshots too, but I gave as good as I got. Though, next time I go, I'm taking a cup, as a couple of other guys got shot in the balls. I ain't having that happen to me!
