In case anyone was wondering, this is backed 100% by UWA. This is not only a way for us to get some GREAT publicity but its a way for the wrestlers, students and fans of UWA to meet up in a whole new world. I for one am excited to be a part of this. I hope you will be to.

when was the last time you shoot 2,000 arrows in a 2 minute period? it would take you a whole army to do it and in paintball i can do it by myself thats a whole c(aca) load of paint in the air

Hey, no argument from me as far as amount of ammo in the air. However, it's not about that for me. It's more discipline, especially having worked with a group that trained with high powered sniper-style rifles in the past, where they don't putz around and don't waste time or lead.
Any monkey can take a gun and point and shoot. Simplify that and simply use a semi or full automatic and spray an area with ammo in hopes of hitting a target, well, it's not as efficient or useful as one would realize. Having been told too many stories of those involved in short and medium range fire fights, it's usually a way to run out of ammo fast. This merely leaves one open to an undefendable counter attack.
But, it's only paintball, so the worse that will happen is brusing and paint in the hair. That's not too bad.
I find archery to be much more relaxing. Plus I can just buy additional arrows to lengthen my time between flights and retrieval and then re-use. Fixed costs, I like that.
Or should I contact my friends with the vulcan gun? 3000 rounds a minute, sounds like a supersonic buzz when going full blast. That's some seriously scary stuff!!

the idea of paintball is to lay down as much paint as quick as possible win with brute force there is no time in paintball tournaments to think about where to fire you just start and keep going till everyone is dead thats the idea of it and thats why im so good at it your vulcan gun 3,000 rounds a minute whats that full auto my dragon intimidator is getting over 1,000 and thats all me pullin the trigger quick fingers have won me over 50 paintball tournaments

That's "Studio42".
Sorry, not interested in paintball. Well, unless you're willing to pay me $150/hr for the priviledge to shoot balls of paint at my frame. I have to basically these days put off something to do something else. The one thing I'm not putting off anymore is sleep.
Thanks for the offer though, but just not interested. Also, don't have the time or the space to shoot the bow these days. There's a range nearby that I've been meaning to check out. Members only crap, bet they aren't even open anyways. I'm a tad rusty, but you can do a lot of damage with a 35-pound recurve bow. I never could get the hang of compound bows and longbows are just too long for me. You need to be at least 6-foot to properly handle a good longbow unless you shoot at an angle, which I never could get a hand of.
You might try using some strategy instead of guerilla tactics. I take it you like a REALLY fast paced battle.

I'm thinking....
I am moving in about a month to a bigger house. Yeah, big move, a whopping 1/2 mile away. Whee!! Anyhow, typical new house stuff: paint and carpets.
If I can dictate what colors the paintballs can be in, perhaps I can paper up the stuff I don't want splattered and have Captain there go nuts and have the ultimate paintball marathon session. Hitting the walls would be encouraged. Seems appropriate for someone who is esssentially spraying paint anyways.
No, better not do that, wife would have to re-do the carpets.
Tip: If moving into a pre-built non-custom home, check for former model homes, they kick some serious butt. This one has mega upgrades all over it and not only do they look good, they are super functional. Also, have a really good realtor also helps. Mine is taking care of everything, so all I have to do is ride the wave. This is so killer! Once some other things get agreed upon, I'm hiring movers to help pull the heavy stuff from place A to place B(and up some stairs). A Better Moving Company, their A-team may be somewhat slow in movement, but I've NEVER EVER seen a better pair of movers handle a task.
