Woodsball>Speedball

Also its too cold now... especially for speedball. The tanks will freeze methinks. Maybe in spring?

Anyplace you know that allows full auto?

what field you looking to play on?? BYOP?? Indoor or Outdoor?


as for the tanks freezing.. you need to get HPA! CO2 is so 1990's!!

I have a 5-man team, so we would be interested...

OH that kind of speedball? You mean the little area on a paintball field that has a bunch of aluminum bunkers and you're within 20 feet of the other person?

Do you have any idea how much it would HURT to get hit in this cold?


You're insane. The paint would probably freeze and we'd be getting hit by Civil war bullets.

as long as you use the right kind of winter paint you will not have any problems with it freezing. Where are you guys looking to play at? I just got some new guns for next years turny season and looking to try them out.

I've got an idea.. anyone play regional or national tournaments? We should have a My350Z.com team and play a GPL, NPPL or PSP event in the east coast together.

I was talking about the CO2 tanks.

HT4 (is too cheap for compressed air )

Indoor, http://paintballinvasion.com

I was thinking 5 man teams for maybe 3 hours rental of the facility.

Three hours would be $50. a head and we would get the field, ref, air and 500 rounds.

haha 500 rounds, why do they even bother with that... i go through that in one game... Find out if we can bring our own paint or if we have to buy theirs and how much is it a case...

... as for the My350z.com team - My team would be down for a new sponsor,hehe.. We play GPL, so lets do it!

Can't bring your own paint. Don't know what a case is, check the site.

LOL...not unusual for our three man team to go through 6 cases in a day!


Don't get too competive here with this..............meant to be a fun day out for everone! BTW, what do you shoot? We use Fly's.

Angels FTL!!!! hahaha, jk... they have gotten a lot better over the years.. As for GPL, I should say we USED to play GPL, but stopped 2 years ago to pursue the NPPL, but fizzled out when some of our team went to play for other teams and we had a falling out with our sponsor.. anyway, long story, but I would like to play GPL again (my350z team FTW!).. Our team was "Final Judgement." Might of heard of us, might not have.. we practiced with Infamy (our one teamate was friends with the twins from infamy growing up and we used to all play woodsball together, so thats how that came about) and all the other Redz teams for awhile...

As for what we shoot, well we've been through just about everything since I used to sell paintball equipment online.. Right now though, I have a DM6 that I love!! Had an Ego before that, but the dang thing was a nightmare with cheap paint (to high of an operating pressure), so that had to go.. I had a Hybrid Shocker Before that, and the list goes on and on from there.. Our team's marker list right now though, consists of 2 DM6's 2 Ego's and 1 Hybrid Shocker....We are fading out of the sport fast as things are getting more and more corrupt in the industry, and the guns are getting more and more rediculous... I would like to play with some forum guys though, but I've been so spoiled on paint prices, it might be hard to convince my guys to pay full price for some b grade paint... We'll see though, i'll keep an eye on this thread and get back after i talk to the other guys..

Final Judgement.. hmm.. sound familiar but i'm not positive. My current team has been playing GPL for a few years now, ever since it's been in Skirmish, and now at Del Hobbies. I know how it is with teams falling out. Happens all the time. I know of Infamy and we've played with a few of the Redz team before. I used to play with GZ back in the day before the members split up and it turned into NYX. At our home field we play with jersey's newest pro team, Jersey Authority and MOD.

Lets set up a game with some forum members for fun and talk about GPL then. See how things go first. I know of some fields where we can bring our own paint. Or even get paint at discount prices. As for paying full price for paint at GPL, the 7 man event is BYOP or $35 & $40 a case there.
