Nah course it is - the more paint u shoot the more money they make - but with only one field to rely on i think a balance is needed.Originally posted by Stan
It's a site so that's how they make their money... or am i just getting cynical in my old age?
Look at it this way if u have a group turn up for there first ever paintball experience and end up spending a small fortune cus you have engineered all your games so nobody makes those memorable crazy moves everyone does cus its impossible to do due to the fact the moment u step out a barricade u get light up like a xmas tree then, the group goes away having a good day but most likely abit reserved about goin again, u therefore lose there repeat custom.
And as far as i am aware the site is run on the basis turn up pay £7.50 and play as long as you want till just buy there paint.
Now if the field is design so everygame become a stalemate and ends the same way i for one wouldnt wanna play that field too long would u?
You see what im tryin to say - yeah course all sites make money through paint sales but when u are relying on one field like that with a kinda of laser quest time approach as opposed to the normal book in advance and play for a whole day u got make the game exciting to keep people hooked.
Yeah but then he aint ever gona cover the cost of running the site if everyone turns up, pays £7.50 and uses there own paint.
True. Will have to try it out, only bout 20 mins from where I live.

I phoned up and spoke to someone there, they mentioned that they aren't open properly yet, and are still working on the fields. Once they are sorted they will have 6 fields apparently. I'm going to speak to the boss when he gets back at 3:30, and perhaps arrange to have a look round with the club committee. I'll let you know what i find out.
Interestin - unless i only saw a 6th of the available indoor space i cant see how they are going to fit 6 different fields indoor but time will tell.
with winter well on its way and the possibilty of an indoor site.this could be used on a fri night for tourney players to use that way they keep there punters games in the day and we all get some wqhere to shoot.dont seam to be that many places in or around brum to shoot.the closest i now is utoxater ! (spellin) so is there any where that i am missing
Wish we had indoor sights up here in scoichlands,NOT ONE!!!!could do with someware indoors to train on a nice big sup air field.
The guy i spoke to on the phone freely admitted that he wasn't the best person for info, as he was just in to do some jobs on the site. But he also mentioned "a new field with kind-of-like the side parts of bouncey castles, but not the floor bit" does that sound like they might have a sup'air field? We've heard that a couple of inflatables were used on the demo night, hopefully they have a full field. And perhpas they can be persuaded to cater for the walk on tourney ball scene.
I did try phoning later, to catch the boss when he was in, but there was no answer. I'll try again tomorrow.
