Paintball on Saturday

I'm so excited, I get to shoot friends, friends of friends and dancers. Has anyone done this before? Any tips?

You are so brave!

No amount of money would get me into a jumpsuit running around being shot by balls of paint.

I have heard the welts are really painful when you get hit.

It HURTS and the sound of paintballs pinging past your eyes is ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING!!!

BUT you can pick up the discarded ones and squirt them at your friends and that's fun Fun FUN!

Okay so not fully a grownup. Awesome. I hear paintball hurts. You let me know.

Please note - that should be 'pinging past your ears'.

Also note that I got shot RIGHT in the butt cheek, and while spectacularly painful, it WAS spectacularly coloured.

Not that I could share it with anyone...

Are you going to the one in Moama? that's where i went. it was really fun, but you have good incentive to run rooly rooly fast, cause it really does hurt like hell if you get hit. especially from close range.

the guns they give you are pretty shit, and your shot tends to veer off if you're shooting from a distance. when we played, these two professional dudes turned up, and they had their own guns, which were also automatic. one of those wank-stains was the one that corked me from close range.

i was crying 'not fair!' for days and weeks and months and i'm still crying, so years too.. pricks.

SO, if you see some professionals with a shit-hot awesome gun, get em in the nusts for me.

I reckon it'd be way more scary to hear them pinging past your eyes. Not only because of the physiological impossibility, but because they'd do heaps more damage to your eyes than your ears with a direct shot.

(Have a grand ol' time, Adam. Shoot someone in the kippers for me. And remember: It's always funnier if it's a girl.)

Oh noes! You's gonna get HURT!
Bahahaha!

So far, you people have produced no tips, no tricks, to tactics or strategies. What kind of war experts are you?

Pretty much I've learnt;

don't stick my bum out,
squirt paint at my friends,
Mars is hardcore,
I will be bruised,
I will be terrified,
I'm not so grownup,
aim for peoples nuts,
especially girls.


Mars, no we're going to Coldstream, which is near Lilydale. www.paintballgames.com.au

Oooh - hints?

I've heard it's good for boys to bring a 'box' or 'cup' (please note, that means the sporty groin guard thing, not a box or cup to carry paint balls in).

I'd skip the kneeguards though - the elastic tends to dig in and hurt more than it would if you were kneeling on rocks.

Maintain that you are better at 'covering' and team up with a keeno who loves to just get in there and get hit.

There's nothing wrong with being the coward that hides for the 15 minutes.

Don't have too many paintballs saved up at the end as all the times I've been they'd made you have a 'free for all' round where there are no teams and no alliances (if you have none left then you don't have to participate!)

If you sneek up on me and frighten me I will shoot you straight in the throat and then almost cry when you shoot me in the fingers so that the ref sees you and you get yelled at and berated for bullying a scared girl.
