oh you call that working do you Barbie??? Only I thought Marshalling involved actually leaving the tree to support itself and hit checking a few punters?

I Rec Ball marshall... it's a laugh watchin "customers" run about the field with no clue... and even more fun watchin someone gettin mugged, you stand there thinkin "go on move / look the other way... there comin to get ya!" definately gives you a different perspective of the game.

BAD TO THE BONE
Mmmmmm...... There should be a section on the boards about marshaling, Rec and tournament.

I do both and it's still suprise's me that just when i think i've seen it all someone does something to top it.

As a rec Marshaling for Lord Setters of sidcup,i am amazed by the amount of people that put old paintballs into their hoppers that have been lying about for days, some time weeks.
They are told no to at the briefing and when their gun dont work because the balls are too swollen to feed into the chamber they swear blind that they were given them and they did not pick them up from the floor.

Do they not realize that if they were any good we would clear them up and sell them back to them!!!!!.

Hard to keep the customers away from the "free paint", then the best bit is having to try and fix their gun in the field when you see that almost every ball in the hopper is pretty swollen and there's no way they'll feed into the gun.
"Did you pick any paint off the floor, by any chance?"
*Customer thinks for a second* "Maybe 1 or 2"

Sigh...
