SQUIRLLY! i'm going to the 3 man tourny there in march :) I might take a trip up there the 28th.

[metalblue]

You guys need to check out the paintball plex best indoor around.

[Ollieleet]

2 and a half hours is a bit of a drive for rec ball :(.

[metalblue]

I drove over two hours every sunday for 15 years on every team i ever played for lo.

[Ollieleet]

Yeah, but I don't have to..is that the field owned by trade my gun?

[metalblue]

Yes it is. They have a 3 man tourney every 1st sunday of every month

[Ollieleet]

Neat, is it open class?

[metalblue]

It was D4 D5 But for the next one i think he changed his rules a bit

[Ollieleet]

is the payout usually good?

[metalblue]

We got 3rd last month got 300 i think but entry is only 60 1st got 700 something. If you take cash its less if you take a in store gift card its more

[Ollieleet]

Not too bad, how much was paint and how many cases did you use? I might go tho the next tourny.

[Diablo3585]

no, but I wanna know how you make your avatars :o

[metalblue]

Paint was 55 for draxxus custom formula and there was cheaper stuff to pic from i played 7 prelim games and 5 final games and only shot little more than half case. The games were 5 min but the fields were set up for short games like mini x ball fields it was fast and ferious.

[Scooby921]

I'm in MI, but you already knew that Ollie. We'll see how much longer I'm here though. I'm looking at a job in Tucson, AZ!

Very nice.

I racked up a $700 paint bill my last tourney.(Between 4 guys)

Petoskey here. Mostly play at TCP in Copemish and work at their store in Traverse City a few days a month. Nice hour and half hour drives.

Ah, I've never made the trip up there, I play at futureball.

[LWard]

Is that where Fubar plays? They make the trip up here every once in a while. Played with them at the MMG. Nice group of guys.

Yeah, they play there. :tup: I haven't been to TCP, is it good?

[LWard]

TCP has been my primary playing location since I started in '03. They have locations in Traverse City, Midland, Grand Rapids and Toledo Ohio. I heard the owner of the Toledo location is a bit of a yahoo, but never been there myself.

I only have a couple other fields, Action Sports and Area 51, that are "local" to play at and they are not even close to TCP, IMHO.I can't really justify driving 3+ hours to try a lot of the fields down state, except the big games that I sometimes attend at Hell Survivors.

[Ollieleet]

Yeah, I see what you mean. I love Hell Survivors Xball field, normally get a decent turnout and apparently this year it's only gonna be $50 if you buy your paint at exotic sportz.

[LWard]

Never played on their Xball field, just scenario ball. Did watch a lunch time tournament during the MMG in 08. Looked like a really nice field.

[Ollieleet]

Yeah, I used to go there all the time for rec play, might go out there over the summer I've only done global conquest how is MMG?

[LWard]

It's fun. I haven't been to GC yet. There are a lot of people that go to MMG and can get hectic at times, just like TWC.

[Ollieleet]

Oh, sounds fun, last time I went to a hell survivors event was like 5 years ago :(.

[LWard]

I go about once a year all depending on money. I generally shoot a lot of paint down there and makes it about a $300 weekend, not including food or gas :rolleyes:

[Ollieleet]

Ouch, you guys should come down to futureball for the almost free 3 man tournies. :tup:

[LWard]

Unfortunately I'm 1 of 2 people left out of the 5 man team I was in, that disbanded in 06-07 when I had to take some time off. The other person that is left won't be playing much in 09.

I'd have to find a pick up team or someone needing an extra, that is if I have extra cash for gas :(

[Ollieleet]

Ah, that always sucks, normally the turnout for their 3 mans is fairly good & the price is right $60 entry.

[LWard]

$60 entry for a team? That's crazy. We see $100 up here it was $150 about 3 years ago, but then the tourney seen started to decline. I think it's on a rise again though.

[Ollieleet]

Yeah, it's $60 per team, and I'm gonna talk to james and see if it's byop.

[LWard]

BYOP is always nice. James the owner?

[Ollieleet]

Yeah, James is the guy I'd talk to regarding that he's the owner.
