sorry, i wrote that before i properly woke up this morning and that dosn't make any sense.
I'm just sick of all you whiny sissy boys complaining about how unfair it is that 'team so and so' is better than your team and should be in a higher division.
I say 'practice hard, get good, kick their asses, and move up to the next divison' (and give them some extra love, no matter what division you're in
)
And that's my standard 'Smack Talk Defence'... short sighted bollocks, and my opinion which i'm entitled to.
ps, Joey, don't be so hard on yourself, we all make mistakes...

Colin your argument about practising and getting good should be aimed at the teams finishing bottom of Division 2, not the bullyboys bashing up on the kids new to the sport. This ain't a criticism of Campaign at all, it's a criticism of the teams that are strangling the growth of the sport.
I mean it sucks really, and is obviously something that has been missed but people, but finishing Top of Division 3, still means your worse than the loser of Division 2 (good way to represent your sponsor / discount seller).
Someone has to lose whatever division, and this crap about Div 3 being Novice is rubbish. Div 3 should be ROOKIE not Novice. If that means it's the smallest division so be it. Yeah bashing up kids who saved up hard for their spyders with your grello's and uber firepower guns is well clever.
If the bullies stayed out of the ROOKIE Division, the likes of PMI/Evil, WDP etc would be able to see teams with genuine potential and at least offer some support for those new to the sport. I mean they're really going to be able to impress when their getting smashed under a hail of paint. The manufacturers might be able to help and nurture people, but they can't if they can't see potential, cos the kids are getting smashed by the fat old timers on unlimited budgets with the fast guns (whose only game is shooting them fast).
Perhaps an easy way out would be to have the ROOKIE division only play Fri/Sat, no Sunday Club. that way the teams who think they're going to get a cheap extra days competition get dicked.
It's a shame that 7 man makes everyone sit down the sidelines mute, cos I can think of a view teams who deserve the loud chorus of "YOU SUCK".

bollocks bollocks bollocks.
had to get that off my chest...
Glen, my argument is aimed squarely at anyone who claims that another team in their division is sandbagging.
We'll continue this conversatioin in the bar at Campaign Cup.

Merkin Sucks.
Be specific about who you are calling 'whiners' and 'sissy's.
I don't whine about sandbagging. I don't even fully understand what it means, and don't want to.
Plus, writing long posts to whine about other peoples whinings is ridiculous!

Seems like what's considered to be one of the biggest bunch of 'baggers in the UK by popular vote (something that should appeal to you, the people's mod) get sponsored by your friends at WDP.
PS Sandbagging is kinda like snowballing. It's both yukky.

Whinge, whinge, whinge, moan, moan, moan....
Hmmm, the supposed People's Mod doesn't know what Sandbagging is??? Good way to represent your constituents.
Anyway, I may have made an exceptionally longwinded attempt at "Sandbaggers, You SUCK", I shall try harder to be more blunt next time. I'm not whining, just voicing an opinion.
Anyway, back to the baggers,
You know what makes me laugh, MLT is often used as some peoples personal chat room; it ain't it's for all users who attend "Major's" (Rookie to Pro), I would have thought the recent influx of new posters here to be indicative of peoples thoughts on teams who are year in year out playing down. I mean these non-"pro's" are the ones who are paying virtually full retail for their guns and bullets, would be nice to know that their opinion might count for something; especially when "Face" or "sponsored" (I use the term loosely), decide to bash them up. I never realised alienating potential customers was now an "in-vogue" marketing tool. you'd actually be surprised how many teams are essential known as "Team Dick" by their peers, and by extension or guilt by association possibly their sponsors.
If the series organisers want to see growth and development of Tournament Paintball, then Div3 should be Rookie only. It always used to be, that saying this is an annual argument. I suppose in reality the Teams playing down are only cheating themselves, as there simply "propagating" they're no-game loserness. Perhaps sponsors may start to realise this and jettison teams, or maybe the Rookies just decide to boycott certain games.......
Maybe I missed something in paintball fashion, is it now "AGG" to get novelty results??? Somewhat cool for a team to get a negative position in the Division they should've been in? "Wahey we're Team Dick and we finished -8 in Div2 this year, give us more free sh*t". Or another of my favourites "ohhhhh we played sh*t all year, we don't deserve to be in Div2", cut the crap, most teams were entered halfway through the season, did you throw the rest of your tournaments to justify your Campaign Division?.
If I sound angry, it's because I am. I've seen genuine Rookie teams train and play hard all season for their first Major, and now it looks as though it's being made as difficult as possible. I've no doubt they are in fact better than some of the names being banded about, but even a small piece of tin would represent something for a years efforts.
Col, I'd be more than happy to continue this over a few cold ones at the bar, I'm suffering from alcohol withdrawal at the moment, hence my tetchy comments.
