Try and keep it site related guys as thats the info we are after.

As for dead boxes, when ya eliminated your of no real use to the match in progress so does it matter if you stand in a marked area, or outside the field??

And the trophies are explained in the main CPPS info

i know we would all like the dogs danglies of playing areas ,but getting the staging area and food,are more important
now i here you say what the hell are you on about,think about it guys,if this area is superb we all tend to forget about the rest,where do you spend most of the day,in the staging area
if you look at most other events and the gripes about them it,s about the lack of facilities in the staging area.
here,s an example the british gp, now silverstone lost the event this was not due to the track,this was all down to the facilities for the teams (pits area) and the spectators/media (i know they got it back this was due to donnington not being able to come up with the goods)
so guys i,m just saying if you get this area right it,s amazing how the fields/track or whatever come second,but also give the event organiser alot more time to get this side right
if you think if the staging area is a crap hole and the food is garbage you,ll think long and hard about going again,but if this area is the mutts nutts but the fields are so so you,ll be there next month:)

Get in touch with some councils or hockey clubs........every few years they change the astro pitches and usually give the old turf away for free if the buyer collects. It's easy to lay.....me and my guys laid the one at NPF for Ged.

I'd woodchip around the edges of fields and just box pathways/staging areas in so it doesn't spread.
Sounds like a damn good idea to me...

I would just say a firm set of printed/printable rules non of the this is whats done at xyz event. Make them nice and detailed for both formats.

I think the Mil rules lack clarity big style, one person says one thing another says another it should be printed black and white not what someone heard at a Millennium or what they have been told off another team.

Other then that us northern lot are not really fussed keep them coming as you are doing Rich :D

I disagree. Although the staging areas are important, i don't think they need to vastly over-shadow the actual field. If you're at the site to play paintball, train hard, etc, i doubt "i hope they have hot dogs on the menu today," should ever glance your thoughts.
