****Announcement****

Tunaball 7 will be held on the weekend of June 1 & 2 2013. As always, at the awesome Topgun playing fields in Cream Ridge, NJ.

Mark your calendars.

www.Topgunpaintball.com

UPDATE 4/15/13

Lodging Information:

UT OHES... the Days Inn and Holiday Inn in East Windsor/Hightstown are FULL. If you need a room, check the Raddison in Freehold, and other hotels in BORDENTOWN NJ, which is about 20 mins from the field on right off of 195.
For reference, the address for Topgun is;

567 Monmouth Road
Cream Ridge, NJ 08514
Next To Six Flags Great Adventure
(732) 928-2810

Here's the complete list if you need it ...
DAYS INN WRIGHTSTOWN 609-723-6900
HAMPTON INN EAST WINDSOR 609-426-1600
HOLIDAY INN EAST WINDSOR 609-448-7000

BEST WESTERN BORDENTOWN 609-298-8000
CANDLEWOOD SUITES BORDENTOWN 609-291-1010 **Allows pets


There is a chance that there might be some cabins available... if so, you would be able to cancel your hotel reservation last minute. However, the extra cabins are not definate


If you are flying in from out of town you have TWO CHOICES of airports;
Either Philadelphia which is about 1 hr SOUTH of Topgun and about 1.5 hrs south of the Days Inn
-or-
Newark/Liberty which is about 1/2 hour NORTH of the Days Inn and about 1 hour north of Topgun.

Car rentals are available at either airport although I do not have details and are not familiar with the locations of car rental companies.



Tunaball 7 - CONFIRMED for TB7: BOTH Simon "Manike" Stevens AND Tom "AGD" Kaye! :dance:

Friday - Meet and greet @ Topgun from aprox noon - whenever.

Saturday as always will be the big day. Games running throughout.. and we will do our "Most Awsome Mag" contest. We can rope TK into being a judge :) Whoever wins will get the honor of having Tuna, Simon and TK picking the winners.

Sunday - VINTAGE GUN DAY!

After thinking about it, here are the rules for Tunaball 7's VINTAGE GUN DAY.

-Any mechanical marker. No Full auto, No RTing.
-Any pump
-Any electro without eyes or ramping.
(Emags will be allowed with 1.37 software ONLY. No Xmags)
-Pneumags ok but subject to approval: No full auto no RTing
-No markers with model years after 2002
-NO FORCE FEED LOADERS.
-VL Revies or equivalent ONLY!
-9volt (1 battery) warps ok since they are limited to about the same feed rate as a revy.

There will be guns that may not fit into these guidelines but may still be considered vintage. These are only guidelines and equipment should fit into the spirit of the day. We can rule on them in a case-by-case basis.

Again, "spirit of the day" is the operative phrase here.

NO EXCEPTIONS!!


************************************************** *************


Anyone flying in for this even had two options - Newark Liberty or Philly airports. Newark is about 1 hr north of Topgun and Philly is about 1 hour south. The Days Inn is about 1/2 NORTH of Topgun right off the NJ turnpike and is an easy drive

Pricing will be the same as it has been since day 1 7 years ago - $35 to play (includes BOTH days) and paint @ $65/case (FPO)

[BigEvil]

You're killin me.

My wifes bday is the 4th. She released me from my obligations because its the only time we can have it.

[SoulCoffin]

You're killin me.

Tell her that for her bday, you're taking her to a beautiful cabin getaway

[OPBN]

I think my wife would prefer if I found something to do on her birthday and left her alone.

[Ando]

You're killin me.

No can do for me. Once again on the woman's bday.
Give her a kitchen pass. Tell her to go out with her friends and party like its hard..party like its hard!!

She will enjoy the cabins.

[SSP REAPER]

I'm making this one! No matter what... :D

[Dayspring]

Awesome. If we're still in NJ at that point, I'm there!

[Maghog]

Thanks for starting this early. I've always wanted to be at one of these, and I'll try to make it this time around.

[Ir0nExpress]

June 2 is my birthday! I know where I'm going :)

[Dirge]

:clap:

[Arstron]

Well I have some emags coming my way, maybe I can make it next year finally!

[Ando]

You don't need a mag to play :cheers:

[zondo]

You don't need a mag to play :cheers:

If anyone wants a mag to play with, there are usually more than enough to go around! :cheers:

While this is Automags.org, playing with an automag is NOT a requirement to come! Just come ready to BS, eat, drink, play some paintball, sleep, and repeat!

[PsychoMag]

With this kind of notice I may just trek to jersey to go. I haven't played at Top Gun in at least 10 years.

[livebrando]

can someone give a description and event details?

[BigEvil]

I will update the first post later. But in the mean time just search ao for "tunaball" and you will get the jist of.it all.

[knownothingmags]

things are looking good, the way it looks ill have all the markers Anodized by the time tunaball rolls around.

hope its easy to fly all them over so i can get them all in the colective picture.

ooooooh i cant wait.

[Ando]

Mail them to one of the guys driving or stright to Carl Jr.

[knownothingmags]

Mail them to one of the guys driving or stright to Carl Jr.
oh so you cant fly with paintball equipment?

or is it more about the tanks?

[livebrando]

I got in trouble once for having the paintball gun in my carry on...check it in please. Tanks are not allowed.

[Loguzzzzzz]

You can fly with your paintball equipment, it MUST be in checked baggage and the regulators MUST be removed from the tanks!

Expect to have your bag searched and not repacked as carefully as you packed it. This has happened to all but one time since I have been flying to Tunaball, which is 3 years so far.

The TSA is supposed to leave you a notice inside your baggage stating that it was searched too!

i may need to rethink traveling with my pelican case, with the press and pull foam.

hmm something i will for sure need to think.

[BTAutoMag]

i probably will be driving, if someone wants to ship their stuff ahead that would be an option :rolleyes:

[BigEvil]

Yes, shipping is an option. Topgun can receive your stuff. I would suggest including a return label as well, so that you can easily send it all back.

What he said

[BigEvil]

First post updated.

Time to make some noise about this!

[Rudz]

I'm so there again this year:clap:

[Nobody]

you know i won't miss this one. :bounce:

[knownothingmags]

so it looks like im in on this one as of now.
if anyone need help going in on a rental or something or a cabin letme know.
since this will be my first Tunaball i want to make sure things go smoothly.

hope i can get the tripple mag done and running before then. if not running atleast people can see it first hand.

:headbang:

[Dirge]

My vacation request was in months ago!

If I miss this, I'm looking for another job.

[Rudz]

I might have to be sick for a few days, but I'll make it away from work. Hmmmm I wonder if I can just shrink wrap myself to a pallet and see if they'll ship me to Topgun?

[Ando]

I'll be driving up from Kentucky. Might have room if anyone is intrested.

Will know more when we get closer.

[BTAutoMag]

minght not be able to go, my wife wants to come but she doesnt want to come if we have to take the kids, wont let me come alone, have to take time off of 2 jobs, and the the financial burden of actually doing it.

looking at the cost:

playing: 35$ x2
paint: 70$ x2
hotel: 213.10
gas: 942 miles x2, average 25mpg in a jeep or caravan: about 75-80 gallons of gas, roughly 300$
food for 2 people:100$ ish

around 825$ (probably more) to go play paintball for a weekend

plus how much does it cost to get a baby sitter for 4 days including nights:(

plus how much does it cost to get a baby sitter for 4 days including nights:(

FYI - the $35 would be for both days, not $35xs. Also - you could find someone to split the hotel with. If we can pull off the Laurel Ponds cabins again, the price per person would be about $75 for the weekend provided there were 5-6 people to a cabin.

[BTAutoMag]

my wife wants to come and play, and i'm not letting her use her vagina to get a free field fee;)

and she aint sharing a hotel room...

[zondo]

Saturday as always will be the big day. Games running throughout.. and we will do our "Most Awsome Mag" contest. We can rope TK into being a judge Whoever wins will get the honor of having Tuna, Simon and TK picking the winners

I'm going to miss this!

Thanks a lot, Bin Laden. :mad:

wont let you come alone ? hand in the man card. Does she ever let you go anywhere? All the years on here i dont think I ever seen you anywhere.

[BTAutoMag]

i spent 2002-12.5 retired from paintball. stuff just always gets in the way.

I live 900 miles from my family and when I have vacation time and money usually i go visit them. last time I did that was 4 years ago.

I work 2 jobs where I am a VITAL part of the company as well as supporting a wife, 2 kids and a morgage.:p

I enjoy my life, I just dont have a life out side of the 3 building I usually am in. I can't usually afford to paintball, but I volunteer at boneyard and that earns me certain perks. I even paintball mostly with people from work.

I am very proud of what I do and I take much pride in sending out a perfect product that a customer finds worth in.

Even right now, I'm sitting down inbetween feeding a 1 year old, helping a 6 year old figure out what "off the floor" means and helping my wife take account of household sanity.



There is no "man card" in this house. I have non of my family by me, her family dont want to help with babysitting, and our friends all either hate kids or we wont trust with kids. my wife handles ALOT on her own and if me wanting to help with that makes me less of a "man" to you. I dont really care, go shut your pee pee in a door... twice

[wimag]

relax... uhhhhh ok on having a job, wife, kids and mortage. same here...nothing special about it asides from being an adult. You really want me to shut my pee pee in a door twice??.....you sure ??? you may have to ask your vagina twice... she seems to make the call for you.

[zondo]

my wife wants to come and play, and i'm not letting her use her vagina to get a free field fee;)

and she aint sharing a hotel room...

So many directions to go here, I'm overwhelmed with the options... :p

[BTAutoMag]

relax... she seems to make the call for you.

she wants to go, if I can find 1000$ extra in the budget then sure we'll be there, as of right now, no.

[knownothingmags]

so the wife has work/sea trials on the 3rd of june.
so we dont know for sure if that will get pushed.

so as of now i can not come.:mad::mad::mad:

if her schedule changes and i can get tickets for cheap at that time ill be there.

[Rudz]

What is it with these " I can't come unless I bring my wife guys?" In all the years I've been coming to Tunaball there have only been a handful of wives'girlfriends in attendance. There's only Mrs Evil, Scotts sisters, sister in laws and maybe one or two other guy's wives. Its a boys weekend to the fullest. Get away from the wife and kids, hang out with the boys, eat some grilled meat and drink some alchohol. If you don't drink you can nerd out with the guys who sit in there cabin/room talking about god knows what untill 2 or 3am. lol

[BTAutoMag]

my wife plays paintball. I'm sorry this inconveniences you:rofl:

[knownothingmags]

yeah my reason isnt because the wife wants to come. i just dont have anyone to watch the 2 1/2 yr old or when this happens he will be 3+ yr old son.

hell the wife dosnt need to come at all. im just want to play ball, eat and meet some of you fools on this forum. and of course have some fun.
:clap::headbang::bounce::dance:

[BTAutoMag]

i do too:D

for 10 years now I've wanted to.


hell, Tom and Rob are the only ones from this site Ive met.

[Nobody]

now that the pissing game is over...

if at all possible; find, make, beg plead, and get your guns to NJ. its one of those games that isn't the biggest, or the best, but the people there make it so. you see stuff like this:
http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll255/Nobody609/Tunaball%205/101_0321.jpg
http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll255/Nobody609/Tunaball%205/101_0320.jpg

8 SFL mags in one place. hell, most people have never even seen one in person...

so check the cheap flights, ask for hand outs for food and paint, pack you're own ramen noodle to eat the entire week, sell off everything but your own kids. as long as you do everything you can to make it, it will all be worth it.

also, Simon 'Manike' Stevens and Tom Kaye will be there. so even if you don't play, you can hear stories and insider info like no other.

[knownothingmags]

man i really need to get there now.

we will see.

[zondo]

man i really need to get there now.

we will see.

Don't you have in-laws that can watch the little one? :D

I will not be there but that is because my people need me :ninja:

I will miss the comradery and Simon's margaritas. Nothing says drunk like a Brit on a gas powered blender! And you should all be fearful now that RUDZ, BigEvil, Shrub, and Lazrsktr have lost the equivalent of a first grader in weight apiece!

[Dayspring]

We just bought a house, and our closing is scheduled for the beginning of May. Not sure if I can do this anymore.

[Menace_AO]

Calendar marked. :headbang:

[BigEvil]

We were discussing the "Vintage gun day" yesterday with they guys from Topgun. I'm getting a lot of good feedback about it.

Im also debating if we want to do a big-game format for Saturday....

[pillage]

Whatever style of play gets decided on is fine for me. It might be the first time I get to play since last Tunaball.

[Nobody]

i just want to make it onto the field when the game starts.

Blah you guys still suck. Wish I could make it.

[Nobody]

what's stopping you, Will? we punch will in the face and come on out. its not like you're on the left coast and trying to get there.

[Dayspring]

Wife's b-day.

[Thordic]

Wife's b-day.

Yup, no way I can get out of that one. Scott seems to enjoy scheduling Tunaball on her birthday every other year or so.

And who the hell is Will? I'm torn about getting him punched in the face until I know more about this Will character.

[Ando]

She'll have more birthdays. Tell her sorry and get her a diamond of some sort. She'll let ya go. ;)

[Tunaman]

I want EVERYONE that is coming to wear a name tag with their AO Screen name on their shirt. I NEED to know names as there will be VERY special prizes. No nametag...no prizes!:D

[Ando]

I should still have 200 of those name tags I brought last year :p

[dboggs79]

Gonna make an attempt at making it myself. Was stationed at McGuire AFB, not too far from there, a few years back. Maybe see some sick mags and reunite with some old military friends all in one trip.

[ninja3454]

I think I'll definitely have to drive up for this. You all seem like a fun bunch :D plus I've had my mag for 6 months and I've only gotten to use it once.

I work too hard, I need a vacation. Let the good times roll! :dance:

[BigEvil]

This thread is full of win...

ninja3454 & dboggs79 looking forward to meeting you guys.

[zondo]

the best gift you can you give your wife, a complete weekend without you there. peace and quiet which is priceless. just make sure you do all the laundry and fold it before you go.

Man you FAIL. There is ALWAYS a work around. Finger it out ya putz. :p

[zondo]

So I am not leaving on time anymore, and the first thing my wife says, "So does this mean you can make your big paintball trip?"

[SSP REAPER]

zondo is coming!! Woohoo!

I can't promise anything... but you know if I'm free, I'll be there. :argh:

Hopefully I'll make my flight this time! :rolleyes:

[Nobody]

well, we will all have a great laugh if you did miss your flight again. at least you know what you need to do and how to get here.

[zondo]

Fool me once, shame on me... fool me twice, won't get fooled again! :cool:

[SoulCoffin]

but actually making your flight doesnt make for a cool story... in fact, you gotta one up what you did last year. this time, you miss your flight and during the drive up, all your tires blow out. then you find a little kid on a bike and steal it, then ride the rest of the way up with all your gear on your back.

[Loguzzzzzz]

Yup, no way I can get out of that one. Scott seems to enjoy scheduling Tunaball on her birthday every other year or so.

And who the hell is Will? I'm torn about getting him punched in the face until I know more about this Will character.

Ahhhh. . . . young love. Isn't it GRAND!

This will fade one day. Then you will regret all the things you missed and realize that all those things you did were for NOTHING because she will complain to you all the way to your grave and even after that when she steps all over it!

Enjoy Her BIRTHDAY! We will all be having a GREAT time at the cabins (hopefully) and drinking, not thinking of you! :D

By the way and for the record, I have been married (still am) for longer than you have been alive so I think I know a thing or two about how to stay in a marriage!

Remember this: Wisdom is a by product of Experience! Use it when it is offered!

;)

[Loguzzzzzz]

:cheers: to the possibility of another appearance by the great and mighty. . . .ZONDO!

I want EVERYONE that is coming to wear a name tag with their AO Screen name on their shirt. I NEED to know names as there will be VERY special prizes. No nametag...no prizes!:D

Tuna, with the amount of weight being lost by some of our players, I think there should be a biggest loser category.

A couple of questions...

1. Will we need to RSVP or register?

2. Is it safe to assume there will be a swap meet of sorts?

[BigEvil]

A couple of questions...

2. Is it safe to assume there will be a swap meet of sorts?

Registration or RSVPing not necessary.. but it would be cool to introduce yourself when you get there...

There will be TONS of stuff. Tuna brings a truck full.. everyone else has globs and globs of pb junk for sale, if you are into cockers, the guys at Topgun have a good portion of the wgp inventory.. Simon Stevens always brings a bunch of old and new goodies also... plus you just never never know :ninja:

[Nobody]

i think we will have another white elephant/sale again. so bring parts or money, and guns. who wouldn't want to win a trophy for having the best Mag or other gun?

[jvaughn212]

This is exactly what I was hoping to hear.

We plan on making it to the Friday meet-n-greet. Look forward to meeting you guys.

2. Is it safe to assume there will be a swap meet of sorts?

You need to get a sleeping arrangement of some kind,.. so I will say yes to the RSVP. As for us NEEDING one,.. no,.. but we like to know when you will be at the field on Friday afternoon so we can all meet you, introduce one another, and start drinking early :)
Its always nice to be able to call you on the phone and see where you are time wise,... we want to meet everyone! Its why we have this weekend.

I brought a duffel bag of cradles i handed out for FREE,... not too many people wanted one though,.. they were BNIB by the way!

I gave out 2 VER frames for the raffle,.. and some other stuff. I go now to hang out with the guys and see my "friends". My real friends.
I met Loguzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzo for the first time, Simon, Ando, Zondo, pillage, etc..... guys I talk with more than I do with my family.

If you go to play paintball,.. you will find yourself getting distracted a lot!:D

yes, make sure all your guns are in top working condition, cause i've had problems 2 years in a row and i was working on about 6 guns in various states. plus, you never know what someone is going to bring and blast a hopper or 2 at the chrono. ever shot a cocker with a reflex kit? want to try out a pnuemag? so expect to see stuff that you might not ever see at your field and have a chance to shoot it.

That crazy jvaughn212 and myself are gonna be there. Looking forward to the event. Can't wait to get to know everyone and talk about automags. Might even plan on playing some paintball while we are there.

I did have a couple questions if someone would be so nice to answer.

Do you suggest bringing tables to set up your gear on? Should we bring a pop up canopy or are there areas to stay out of the sun if it is hot out? And....What kind of turn out have you had in the past? This will be our first adventure to Tunaball and I was just curious.

I am sure there will be more questions as I think of them. Thanks in advance.

-Rosenberg-

[Nobody]

tables are always nice to have. one person who has attended that past 2 Tunaballs, brings a circus and smaller circus tent, but if you feel that you want to have your own tent and don't care to share tent space, then go ahead.

it is better to have and not need, than to not have and want.

[Rosenberg]

You speak wise words Nobody.....If we have room in the vehicle....I will make sure to pack what we can. Then again....it might be difficult to find room around the kegs and strippers. What am I thinking....the strippers can just be loaded into the trunk. With the occasional restroom break of course. After all, we are not that cruel.

strap the hookers to the roof. you don't want them to be suffocated in the trunk. it gives them less time to finger your L10 kits...

Tunatown was pretty big last year

You make a solid point. I guess we will just make sure we tie some really tricky knots. Wouldn't want them to escape. plus, they can hold on to the beer.

TK is going to be there? REALLY? Does Tunaman know?:argh:




See below:


I talked with Tuna on the phone today. He sounded in good spirits and was feeling much better. He said the cancer was stage 2 which meant it was very treatable and in the lower part of his esophagus which was much more operable than the upper area.

I promised him that if he pulled through I would be at the next Tuna Ball. He said he would hold me to that so now I am making it public. I told him he was just getting all the crap out of the way at one time and he laughed.

Beat the hell out of it Tuna!!

Pull through man. You don't know me, but I know you. You're a lynchpin in this community.

[Nobody]

questions,

-how much paint would a person shoot? i know its a broad question but i was wondering.
depends on what you are shooting, how fast you want to shoot and how much you play.


-cost of paint?
we will find out when we get closer to the event, but figure $60 a case


-how much for a spot in a cabin?
the cabins are still up in question. we are having trouble getting them, but will announce when we get an idea of the costs and availability.


-things start noonish on friday meet n greet wise?
we meet up at the field, so you can take care of the registering, any air or teching you want to do before hand and just hang out before we get settled in. its not mandatory, but its the easiest place to meet up, since that is where all the business is going to happen.


-remove regs from the tanks and things should be good for flying? and seran wrap the opening of the tanks?
contact the TSA and tell them exactly what you have and how to handle it. the TSA has had many paintballers fly, so they know exactly what you need to do and how to handle it. you should never second guess the TSA, since they are the only word on if you want to travel with your stuff on the plane. conversely, you could mail it to the field and have it waiting for you. we can get a hold of the field and let them know that you are shipping to them.


-recommend getting tsa locks?
that is up to the TSA, again. contact them BEFORE flying and see what they require.


-is it stupid to bring the whole mag collection for the grass pic?
that is up to you. the judges are a weird bunch and their picks run the gambit of everything. so that depends on what you want to fly with/ship and what you want to play with during the game. you can bring anything you want, but can only wish for something left behind.


anything im missing?
don't know other than secure a bed, car, plane tickets, money for food, the game and anything else you could want.

[Dayspring]

[BigEvil]

BigE: Any news on cabins? I'm still looking to book one for the trip.


Yes, and its not good.

What we got is already filled up, which isnt a lot - but it at least makes my life easier to plan Friday and Saturday nights activities which I will explain later.

For you guys that need lodging, the nearest and cheapest hotel is 1/2 hr from Topgun and an easy drive to Hightstown. It's technically East Windsor, but for all intents and purposes its the Hightstown Exit 8 off the NJ turnpike.

The contact info is: DAYS INN EAST WINDSOR 609-448-3200

Find a room mate to split the room with you and book one. IF more cabins become available, you can cancel your reservation up to almost the last minute.

[Nobody]

make sure that you get a verbal confirmation on if its the East Windsor hotel. the year before, i went through the website and my reservation said for Wisconsin. so double check or you'll be pulling out hair wanting a room that is in another state.

Some sad news to report - our friend Jason Finnie (Finnie on the forums) passed away last night after being in a coma for a few days. I am not sure of the details, but he had kidney problems and was waiting for a transplant.

I had just seen him about 2 months ago at the West Point game. I told him TK was coming to TB7 and he was super excited about it.

So we will dedicate this weekend to our lost friend and raise a few up in his honor!

Wish I had opted for this event, but the X-mag is currently out of commission anyway. Hit the local field today and 3 guys showed up...

I could have played with Tom!

[Robbie]

wow.
What an epic day of paintball.
Tom and Tuna got to the field at 9:30 ready to play. We jumped into an open group game which wound up being 30 Aoera vs 50 regulars.
The game went on for about 30 minutes and end with Tom leading the final push ...Big evil falling will running with the flag {he may have seriously injured his ankle } and 2 guys with xmags finishing for the win.
After that it settled down for some gun teching and talk of some super secret projects that no is allowed to post about..also there was talk of some first strike goodness.
There were some new customs x mags there.
Top gun handed out some ice pops.
Lunch was amazing ....pork.
What a great day .
Tunaball proved to be a cant miss event.
Thanks for putting in all the hard work and it was great seeing everyone.
Cant believe you you missed this Day spring ...just to make it to your house closing......selfish jerk
some of the events may not be 100 percent accurate
Bahahaaa
Oh after alot of round table discussion we agreed that a riffeled barrel improves the performance of any paintball gun.

Had a blast playing with everyone. Was incredible to meet all of the people playing. What a bonus to have Tom and Simon there. Everyone was awesome and very friendly. Great two days of paintball.

I can say with no uncertainty that this was a great group to play with. Like, I actually did an A/B test. When things died down on Sunday, another player and I joined the open group, and it just wasn't the same.

I finally have some time and a clear enough head to get in front of the keyboard and post. Monday night after I dropped Lornecash off at the airport my body hit a wall, and I have barely been able to get my head off the pillow since then.

For those of you that don't know, there is a transition phase as a result of my diet where your body needs to switch from burning sugar and carbs to burning fat. Its called the Induction Flu or "Keto Flu" (for ketogenic diet). Look it up, it is NOT fun. It's called the "FLU" for a reason and it hit me really hard this time.

So anyhow -

Another Tunaball in the books. I love how all of the loose ends fall into place effortlessly, making my weeks of agita almost seem funny in hindsight.

I gratitude to everyone who comes out and who helps make this even happen is very personal to me - my undying appreciation to you all!

Special thanks to -

Tom Kaye, who was gracious, personable and just an all around great guy. I even think that he enjoyed himself

Simon - who is the undisputed coolest dude in paintball.

All of the boys; Nobody, Ian, Ty, Outlaw5 & 6, Lornecash, CarlJr and the Topgun crew, Going_Home, Maniac Mechanic, Bunny and his crew, Ando, Lexiones for going out of his way to make an appearance, Diomedes for all of the video footage, Mike Quinn, Robbie for not shooting me out for once, Heff of Zodiac PB for coming Sunday with Cigars and Bourbon since supplies were dwindling, Sterling, Shwade, Cougar20th and the rest of the NH crew, ESPECIALLY P8ntbal4me for his relentless efforts to secure the cabins for us... and to the dozens more who I cant think of right now - THANK YOU ALL!

.. and to Tuna for still being with us another year after a few close calls. We are all glad to see you are on the right track and at least the insurance companies stopped sending you half a calendar

An extra special thanks to Redic and Pilliage for all of their tireless and generous efforts to help me make this event what it is. Literally, with out them, this could NOT have happened.


Looking forward-

There will be NO TUNABALL 8 next year It's time to take a break, and if all goes well we will pick up in TWO YEAR in 2015.

If you were at TB7, you guys know the plan, if not here it is; Next year the plan is to gather all of the Automag guys at LIVING LEGENDS 7 at CPX in Joliet Illinois into one massive AO-ARMY strike force. Things are already in the works and when I get back from vacation I will start to reach out to the other guys on the forums and begin to get the plans rolling. So mark your calendars, start saving your cash, and don't say I didn't tell you so

There will be NO TUNABALL 8 next year It's time to take a break, and if all goes well we will pick up in TWO YEAR in 2015.


When I read this I was instantly sad. Tunaball is on my bucket-list of big games/greets to make at some point.



If you were at TB7, you guys know the plan, if not here it is; Next year the plan is to gather all of the Automag guys at LIVING LEGENDS 7 at CPX in Joliet Illinois into one massive AO-ARMY strike force. Things are already in the works and when I get back from vacation I will start to reach out to the other guys on the forums and begin to get the plans rolling. So mark your calendars, start saving your cash, and don't say I didn't tell you so

Then I read this and was happy again! LL is also on the bucket list, and was an "almost" this year, and a "very likely" next year. Good news! I may not be able to get my wife on board with my flying out to NH for "just a paintball game" (her words, not mine), but if y'all are going to come to IL then that's a different story! lol



Edit: By the way, GoatBoy, I'm diggin the $0.50 garage sale sticker on the back of your X-valve. You could really buffalo someone with a story about actually buying it at that price.
