Pfah! the only reason it's on, is because they couldn't find anybody else to take over the event at another location (I know they talked to some people in a small, yet doped out country next to Germany, this isn't just hearsay.....).
Eric, will you be at practice this wednesday? I'll tell you the complete story then. And since Johan already sold his cocker, you might have to hook me up with one, but I'm pretty sure you won't mind.:D

Jesus..........

Don't you guys have anything else to do than trash the ones that make the turnaments for you ?

I am sure that they would rather have 2 day turnaments but how do you get 100 teams through the grinder in two days.

Or you could just tell 40 teams to NOT GO.

Get real guys. Thes "TRUE" story's you talk about, you don't know half of it. So don't spread roumors. :mad:

I have to take a day of to and i don't even get to play.

I hope that you all can make it. :)

i am so sorry to hear that someone is disapointed with the fact that maxs masters will happen.
i will tell you something,
you probably do not know the amount of work and problem that causes to organize the millenium series and events to push the sport to recognition.
it is very important that the millenium series will be made in germany because we can show that paintball is a sport and not a vulgar wargame and to train nazis , i think that everyone is aware of german laws about paintball.

at the beginning , CMC maxs had no solution and they thinking in making it in amsterdam but the situation went very complicated. then a miracle appear and it seems that everything is solve now and we can display paintball in freiberg.

a shake of hands is what you get when you organize the millenium series, because money is something that you won´t receive because all the money is spend in logistics and prizes.
buddha 3 , please e-mail the organisers and ask them how much money they lost.
i will make it easy for you:
portugal- pedro campos oliveira
danemark- morten jensen
mayhem- steve baldwin
toulouse- laurent hamet
sweden- magued
campaign- niall square
germany- manfred


if the organisers are organizing the millenium series is because they believe in the sport.
thanks god we have also the sponsors that believe in the millenium series and support us , without them you will probably be playing in your local field in the middle of nowhere.


next time think twice.

Ahem.



I know all this stuff. First of all, nobody is disappointed that the max masters will happen, somebody just indicated that he was not pleased with the fact that it is going to be a three day event, that's all.

As far as the Amsterdam situation is concerned, I know how complicated that was. I was there! I am/used to be involved with the people that were spoken to. Hello!

My post was not intended to hang anybody out to dry, otherwise I would have posted everything that I know, which I didn't! And I'm not planning to!
If you guys feel offended by what I said, I'm sorry to hear that, but I will not loose sleep over it. All I said was that, the way I see it, the tourney will be in Germany instead of Amsterdam, because it didn't work out! That's all! If you feel offended by just that, that frankly, is not my problem. Nothing insulting was said, so don't feel insulted.

I have never critisized anybody on this board (I did perhaps make a joke here or there), so there's no need for me to think twice, you should read my post twice before critisizing me however.

The only reason I planned on telling the story (as I know it) to mr. Freeflow, is because I know him well, and because I want him and his team to hear the CORRECT version, not the GOSSIP one, because I am sure that some people have already heard some weird stories.

Yes perhaps I might have used another tone in my posting, but I have not said anything insulting as far as I know. If people feel insulted by the words I used, then I think they feel insulted very quickly, and could have a happier life than they do at the moment.

Jeez, everybody takes everything so personal these days.

I'll cut a deal with you Alvaro, I'll think twice about the tone I set in my postings, you'll think twice before getting all high and mighty and start critisizing people. Sounds fair? And why did you bring up money? I don't remember talking about that at all.

And to Larsen, I did not trash you. I do however, know 'half of it'. And instead of spreading rumours, I wanted to pass on some news. That's all. Trust me when I say that I for one fully understand how difficult it can be to get things done with 'the powers that be' in Amsterdam. It can be damn difficult. If I wanted to spread some rumours, I would have put a post up on this board, with some bull**** story. As far as I know, what I did post is true. People in Amsterdam were approached, but it didn't work out. That's all I said. Sorry if this caused any missunderstandings.

I have never, and never plan to place personal attacks on this board, or any place else. I am happy that the tourney is on, because I plan to be there. It's closest to my home, which is always good. I wish all the tournament organisers the best of all. I know what they mean for our sport.



This post is not intended to piss people off. I just stated my case, meaning to demonstrate that if people were angered by what I said, it was all caused by a missunderstanding. I'm sorry to hear you feel wronged, but I'm not sorry for what I said, because it wasn't much at all.

So, in order to bury the hatchett, I'll buy you guys a beer, if I run into you. To quote Rodney King: "Can't we all just get along?" ;)

Peace out!
