I think it was very harsh to ban someone from a tournament for that. Too much time and money goes into tournaments from the players, and frankly I feel that is bull**** to ban the player for that reason after he has spent so much money on the trip. That just chaps my hide. :mad:

Need a chapstick?

Banning him from the tourney is indeed somewhat harsh, but I have no problem with him being banned from the game (assuming there was not enough time to get it fixed, and seeing how Max ran behind schedule, I'd say there wasn't). There is no roo for forgiveness when rules pertaining safety are involved.
Sorry Jags, I don't mean you guys are rule breakers by intent, I played you in Belgium, and you were the only team to beat us that day, but you won it fair and square.

Actually I do need some chapstick:D I agree wholeheartedly, that the player should have been banned from the game. I am a big stickler to safety and agree that safety is the #1 concern in paintball. But banning him from the tournament was way too extreme. That is all I am saying. Oh yeah, Happy belated Birthday Buddha:D

Re the Player and Jags: That cost them a finals spot... they had to play the rest of the tournament with 6 players......and they only need 70 points more to make the cut......it sicks Dudes!!!!

Hey Tony, nothing in my mailbox yet. But that's been a big problem around here. I tried to send some stuff to the UK, and it came back to my house a number of times. All in all it took 5 months before it got to where it was supposed to go! :mad:
But I'll check if I see a mailman wearing O'neal gloves...:D

Tony now that you have said that if Buddha wasn't such a fine upstanding, honorable member of our community :rolleyes: then I'd bet the first pair never arrive...

(Buddha just send em onto me along with the Golden Eagle ;) )

as usual i got lost, and ended up putting a rant about the IR3 on the wrong forum.

for anyone who cares ive had my few (quite a few) words about it in "newbies"



And after reading it youll probably see WHY i have no mates.
