Fair enough i just wondered as some people cheat with normal paint, let alone clear paint. Thanks guys for clearing that up, many thanks.

Can Someone help me here ?, why are paying customers cleaning the game area after the event ? when they should just pack up after the game and go home, shouldn't this be the event clear up crew ?,

you pay your money to play, you should not clean up afterwards in my book.

This was at the 1st event, which was a guerilla paintball event, it was stated that it would be like this from the get go. Play together, Sleep together, And help out and clean up together.


With this being a Tippmann Challenge i not sure if it will be the same.

But until the player pack is out, we wont know for sure. So dont quote me on it.

But never the less, I didn't mind cleaning up at the 1st event at sennybridge and wont mind at this one either.

Well if players want to clean up the site after paying £50 enrty thats up to them, but i know the Tippmann guys, I dont think they would like their paying customers to clean up after the game, it's about customer service, i think

I agree, i dont think it will be the same this year.
that's what i ment to come across, sorry.

I just was saying that I and all other players knew I would have to clean up after myself and other players at the 1st event before I bought my ticket, there was no surprise email or anything. So with it not been said, im guessing that we wont have to. As-well there will be no time to, with the game running threw out the weekend.

It's £60 entry...

I'll still be offering to help clean up. I'll no doubt be battered, bruised and knackered, but if it keeps the Ministry of Defence on side and allowing us to play their amazing sites, I think it's a small price to pay picking up a few spent pyro cases...

So get the event staff to do the clean up mate you, you have paid your dollar, this should be built in to the costing's of the the event, not your time my friend.

This was the deal from the get go at the Call To Duty games. Everyone chipped in to make sure that we had the best weekends paintball imaginable. On every level.

You cannot compare the 2 games and you're making quite a leap from what happened before to assuming what happens at this, entirely different, event.

It's the same venue, that's it.

Nowhere has anyone said, as far as I know, that the customers at TCUK will be cleaning the field. I would imagine that if you tried to tell 700 paintballers that at the last minute you would be given short shrift. Something tells me that probably won't happen. These guys have put on a couple of events before....

Anyway......

Clear paint.

If you feel a hit, you walk.

If you can't stick to this rule. Don't come, sell your ticket because there will be enough people on both sides that have played clear paint games that will set you right. In a forthright manner.

This is for paintballers that play the game it should be played. There is no grey area. At normal scenario games many people play the bounce. I do, mostly, unless it is quite clear that I have been tagged, then i walk regardless.

This is different.

Bounces count.

Ok fair play Naillist, but can you promise me, that players wont be asked to clean the the field at the end of day, I dont want to fall out with anyone here, but i feel players who have paid their £60 should not be asked to clean up after the event.

Of course I can't. I'm not the event organiser. Unfortunately they can't either as they can't post here.

Anyway. My point wasn't whether we need to get our brooms out or not, it was more the assumption that that was the case with no evidence either way.
