    Its not that Im afraid of getting shot(or shot at), Its just that Im afraid of being really bad at paintball, and getting "out" in like 5 minutes of the first game. But Im sure Ill do fine.
    Ill play, and I think my dad will play too.

    Getting out in five minutes is pretty average on most of the scenarios. It's certainly not "bad".


    I mean, geez, we're all geeks so you have no one to impress. We're not very good at this either. :p

    EVERYONE PLEASE NOTE, WE HAVE MOVED THE MEETUP TIMES A HALF HOUR EARLIER TO ENSURE WE GET A 10:00am START TIME.

    In the past we've had a few snags that pushed our start time well past the goal. I edited the post to give the new times if you want to look back. Sorry if you lose another half-hour of sleep.

    And you're only outnumbered 4 to 1. Looks like a great game.

    The scarier thing is that in his mind it all makes sense.

    i wonder if it would be possible or even legal to rig up a minigun paintball gun. i'd just camp the flag and hose you all down.

    It has been tried before. There are two issues (that I see): First, any multi-barrel gun, paint or otherwise, is a hugely complex piece of machinery, and the time/effort needed would be large. Second, how do you feed the paintballs that fast? Gravity will only get you about 12-15 balls per second, and that's the speed of a mid-range semi-auto paintgun you can buy today. The Automag RT was tested in a lab with a robotic finger (snigger) and the gun was able to fire 23 times per second. Electronic paintguns can even be set to full-auto, but they are scaled back, again due to gravity-feed. There have been several force-feed systems developed, but we are back to the complexity issue.

    Then there is the bottom line that most fields do not allow full-auto guns to be used, or only if they have a locking ring to stick them in semi-auto mode. Heaven knows it hurts bad enough getting hit by one paintball, can you imagine getting hit with 30 per second? The only real effect of a legal multi-barrel paintgun would be psychological.

    Of course, there are still plenty of people willing to dump a lot of money into psycholoigcal paintball weapons.
