AUGUST Play

[sparky81]

Just got an Airow gun and really want to try it out this weekend so I'll have it down at the field this weekend.

I've been wanting to see one of those for a while now.

I start my job up near Wilksbere on the 20th of Sept.   Chris is taking charge so direct all traffic to him.

Paging Chris, I have an idea and wanna get your input on it before I go ahead. Check your pm's.

Have fun this weekend guys. Is Linglestown good? And where is that?

Haven't been to Lingelstown in many years. The place was a dump but I've heard good things about it recently. I mainly wanna go down for the scenario so all the ballers down there know that the WPP Mercs are the best in the area.

well ive got bad news i have to work this saturday and sunday my boss needs me to do some work but hey its money in my pockets lol srry guys but i mite be out the third or fourth

No problem Chris, can't turn down money with this economy. I've got some things going on the back burner, hoping something pans out within the next couple weeks. Btw after you left the other night I caught a 14 pound 29 1/2" Channel Cat.

Well if you could wait till the spring/ summer I would be willing to show them who is the best and that girls can kick some a$$ too. =D Just saying

I'm going to attempt to show up and watch in 4 weeks hopefully. I can't stay really late due to working weekends.

Oh update on college, I learned how to give a bath, put someone on a bed pan and transfer someone from the bed to a wheel chair and how to brush someones dentures, teeth and if they are in a coma. =D

Throughout my busy day all I can think about is paintball this Saturday. Weather looks great with highs in the mid 80's. 

[lil_giggles]

Jealous of all who are playing this weekend. Sound be perfect weather for ya guys.

[inthedeadbox-Chris]

Good news, one of the guys I work with is likely going to show up to play with us.  He doesn't play all that much but has his own equipment.  If you see a 4-door black Volkswagen Jetta flag him down, his name is Paul, and he'll be carrying a Spyder MR1.

For those coming out tomorrow if any of you have an extra egg battery door or a left side velocity jr shell bring it along and I'll put some cash in your pocket. I've needed a new shell for a while but keep forgetting   about it till the day before I play. I was gonna use the egg but dropped it down the stairs   and broke the door.

EDIT- Will do Chris

I have the battery door for you.  I'll throw it in the bag tonight.  I'll trade you for an Ion trigger if you have one, I had to epoxy mine after the tournament.

Had a good time playing today. I could have done without my own teammates pushing me out into the fire lane so they stayed safe, could have also done without getting shot in the back of the head from my own teammates.  To the person with the blue hopper inside the alamo that was I who painted it yellow even though you decided to continue playing. Also to the gentleman who felt it was necessary to curse at my teammate. Yes I shot you out but don't be surprised if you get bunkered the next time. I don't take kindly to cheaters or people who feel it necessary to curse at someone they don't know. And finally to the gentleman who walked into the rope of paint I was shooting and decided to curse at me for it. That was your fault not mine. Other than that I had a great time.

EDIT- Oh yeah Andrew that was a great shot you had with the bow.

[Mini]

haha thanks it was luck though but had a good day with everyone.

The day had its ups and downs, that's for sure, but considering the sheer volume of people that showed (I think it was 60+) today was overall a good experience.  All those targets totally changed the dynamic that I've gotten used to and I was quite often competing with my teammates for cover.

I haven't had a big rec-ball battle at Wannaplay in almost two years, I forgot what it's like playing two fields at a time and being in fear of other players on my own team.  A funny story about that...

There had been so much accidental team-killing throughout the day that during the last match I was getting fire from that back left so I started yelling at my teammates to stop shooting at me... as it turns out they weren't my teammates at all.

But they stopped shooting anyway!  Woo hoo!  

I had no idea I was so convincing, I should have tried that at War in the Woods III.  

I'm proud to say that in spite of the playing-on and poor sportsmanship (remember, they're JUST words, and that's coming from the guy that got cursed at) I didn't see any of the MERCS get bent out of shape or contribute to the problems by participating in said behaviors.  So thank you guys, I play with you every month to play good, fair paintball, but I ENJOY it, win OR lose, because we act like decent human beings.  We play our best, honestly and fairly.  

And best of all?  We had, what, 13+ people there with/for the MERCS?  Holy crap, that just blows my mind!

Best play of the day goes to Andrew for his moves with the Airow Gun.  If I hadn't been there and seen it myself I would not believe someone could draw a bow through that much fire, stand up, aim, and pop someone so accurately.  Nice job, dude.

OK, enough for now, I have to go see if my neighbor (who came along today for his first paintball experience) can still walk.  His wife is going to be mad at me tommorow when he can't even get out of bed.  

PS - Yes, my marker and I BOTH survived falling flat on my face TWICE today.  I promise to stay away from that d@mn ditch from now on, I think being swallowed by it three times should teach me a lesson, don't you?

LATER.

[STOLTZ]

Sounds like you guys had an awesome day

And Chris - this falling on your face theme, I'm beginning to think this might be your signature move

[sparky81]

I wasn't gonna even mention it, but yeah I'm just glad that you were ok from the first fall you had me worried. Maybe it's bad marker voodoo.
