Your first time....

[FUBAR]

Just for a laff, & an excuse for a chat about paintball.
What is the most memorable thing about the first time you ever played paintball?
Did you get used for target practise all day?
Did you pull off some amazing move that was way beyond your newbie experience?
etc etc you get the idea.

Me

The first time I ever played was with a group of my M8s from school. The site only had Pump guns gave you some minging hotdog for lunch and made you carry your paint around on the field in little sandwich bags (Cheep asses!)

We were playing an ambush style game with a big track running straight through some woods and we had to get this box to their starting pallette, you get the idea. well I managed to sneak right along the fence at the side of the game zone with virtually no resistance and found myself behind the enemy team (much to my suprise I hasten to add!) I looked back down the field to see everyone bunkered down behind fallen trees & piles of sticks (Supposed to be bunkers)
I started walking down towards them as if I was on their team, when I was about 25 feet away I opened fire as fast as I could make that damn pump could go & took out 3 people then nicked the bunker they were in which covered me from the rest of their team we then swamped what was left of the enemy and we won the game about a minute later. Uber Adrenaline rush for me & lot of respect from my mates

I'll never forget that.

So do you get married as often

 

[guppy]

Ha ha!

I consider marriage to be one long pre-tourney party m8!

My first experience of tourney playing was great.
Our team expected to be target practice but we came second in our division. Not too shabby and after having lots of stupid little things happen i'll never forget it. Even if i was still drunk from the night before.
The only prob is that i'm now far too hooked on the rush u get every time you play!

Mine was a few years ago.
A site in manchester 15 years or so ago using splat masters I shot at a guy 40 yards away and hit him, I nearly died of shock same day I was defending our base camp and the whole team went in search of the oposition and got wiped out still using the splatt master I kept about 6 or 8 players pinned until the game timer ran down.

and yes I was hooked for all time
