only time i can remember seeing another baller in kettering i was sitting in kfc and saw some guy walking in with a vanguard lanyard
I try to not walk about with my markers as plod seem to get upset if you do....... ;)

But wearing a lanyard?? Thats a new fashion.... At least Bolter saw a bloke in a PB jersey...

Basically I'm happy to go along to any local site and I don't mind playing alongside rental players, so long as I can use my own kit and buy paint at a sensible price.

The going rate at a lot of sites seems to be about £45 - £50 for entry, including your first box of paint, with extra boxes at £25 - £30/box, which seems fair. What put me off diamond wars was the overall cost, £60 entry and first box of paint + additional boxes of paint being £45, which seemed a bit on the expensive side. Having said that Paintfest looks a bit more reasonable at £60 for 2 days with paint at £25/box, although is only cheaper pro-rata if you shoot a minimum of 2 boxes a day as the entry fee does not include paint.

If Unique Pursuits now allow walk-on players I'm happy to come along, assuming the pricing is reasonable and they have HPA available.

My brother and one of the people I know that played at Paintball Valhalla might come too, at this rate there could be quite a few of us.

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to say this as is a bit advertising, but I promise I'm not affiliated so gonna give it a try. Sorry to mod's if I'm breaking the rules and hand is ready to be hit.

Google Groupon vouchers

It brings price down big time

Was down at Unique on Saturday talking to the owners and they are in the middle of getting air so a couple of weeks and i think it will be all sorted. Walk on days will follow :)
