I'm thinking of changing it up for December.

I'd like to do a pump mag category and 1 other.

Any good ideas? Let's hear them.

One I was thinking of is a "wolf in sheeps clothing". Think of robertsr's ion mag.

Themed Mags. You know, like Halloween, Patriotic, whatever.

I've noticed a resurgance of milsim markers in the market- How bout a Milsim MOTM? I feel like alot of the milsim's we get are gorgeous when compared to what they're supposed to be, but fail when placed up next to custom xmags and such.

I agree milsims look really cool (I mean really aren't gun infatuations the reason most of us play paintball?) but I for one don't wanna lug anything more then I have to around the field, being old and fat I need all the help I can get playing any more! :cheers:

BTW I vote for a milsim category also.

i agree i like the look of some of them and i do feel that people deserve some credit.


i personally would not be walking around with one but to each is own.

I'd like to see an "only the valve" category, where only the valve can be an AGD product :D

Maybe color categories for some months? I.E. Blue markers, Red markers, Green markers, etc.

ok heres the definition but basically if you look on McarterBrown youll see some guns of this type its basically a take of steam era timeline tech and making futureristic devices mainly like they take a gun and deck it out with ornate brass or copper gears/cogs and wood I guess like if you have ever played Bio-Shock when you upgrade the weapons it gets another fancy looking attachment that makes it better but mainly just kinda looks cool you know

Steampunk is an alternate reality fiction and/or visual style based on the idea that steam and clockwork became predominant power sources rather than electricity and internal combustion. If electrical systems are present, it is more of a Tesla than an Edison style. It tends to use copper tubing, gears, gauges, electrodes, and leather etc heavily.

A good example:

The steampunk vs post-apocalyptic was a great thread to follow.

lol, and Robertsr would be the only participant since most of us wouldn't have enough time to put anything together within a month

...although there was another member here who was making a steampunk mag and using a warp. never saw the end results :(

Yeah, that theme is played out for a bit. Robertsr already has a jump on all that anyway, here was his mag :hail: :

I say there needs to be a versus theme, like "Egomags vs Pneumags"

How about a mech only catagory ?
No pnues or electros (you know the ones that mostly win).
