Paintball is lots of fun.

You guys looked like you were having a lot of fun. Wish I could have joined in but I found out this morning that the back pain I've had is a pulled rib. Didn't even think that was possible.

[bossmang]

who pulled your rib?

[freeze_dk]

Ive never been paintballing.. When you get hit are you out?

Depends on what you want to do Freeze. If there's a large group you can do last man standing (what you described). The one I've been to in Sydney has a huge bush area where groups can go at it. One game can go for an hour especially if you have people hiding, lol.

Also, it's well worth wearing a cup, lol. I saw a guy get hit in the groin (not intentional or anything, just a stray round) and he got carted to hospital. Found out later he'd ruptured a testicle.

f*ck they hurt at close range though, about the only thing you can do to help that is wear more clothing but then you get too hot.

Let's paint ball as I want to get Paulie back for cheating, want to shot him right in the throat. Haha

I slept wrong. Must have twisted funny in my sleep. It's like when I pulled my calf muscle.

I'd put my name down for paintball but I doubt I'd walk out alive.... ...It'd be easier just to jump in a bucket of paint.

Nah do it Dags as it will be fun as had a ball last night, pretty sure you be safe. Be good for a Mod or Admin to join in, might not pick on you if we met you.

Velocity is just a bully on the track just smashing into people.

Haven't you seen Days of Thunder? It's called rubbing.

Lol. Dags was at one cruise I went on. Didn't get to work out which person was Dags though haha. He does well at hiding even in person >.<

Freeze, plenty of different game styles. Just depends where you go and what they offer. But usually if hit you're out. Or in a game that we played last year, had to grab as many money bags (1 at a time though) as you could in the time frame. Go grab a bag and if hit, drop the bag there, run back to the start point for your team and go get it again. Awesome fun.

Didn't wear cups at the bucks party but took a sock in case. But after you have underwear, your clothing and then overalls they supply you with, there's a few layers to soak up the pain. A cup would be a pain in the arse IMO, too big and in the way when wanting to run. Wear a couple pairs of underwear if you're worried lol.
