Big AO Welcome to Anthony Jones Editor of PGI!!!!!!!!

[AGD]

AO Animals,

We are very proud to have Anthony posting here on the forums and asking for your help with pictures for PGI magazine. It seems the world is coming to depend on the "Power that is AO"!!

Anthony is one of the great people on the other side of the pond that makes PGI the edgy cool magazine that it is. He has been working with our own Capo to write up a story on Skyball.

So with no further ado lets give Ant-toe-knee a HUGE AO welcome!!!

Welcome to the only place on the 'net that doesn't ooze of suckage! :cool:

[Duke Henry]

Welcome indeed. PGI is the only mag I subscribe to.

[Archangel Damien]

whats PGI?

[Muzikman]

Anthony,
Welcome to the wacky world that is AO. What kind of pictures are you looking for? In my previous life I did quite a bit of amateur photography. Mostly outdoor and nature stuff, but over the last few months have really taken an interest to Paintball photography.

[Muzikman]

Paintball Games International (AKA: Kick A$$ Magazine)

[Archangel Damien]

oh ok:D

[Clare]

I mean..Welcome to AO, Ant!! :D

[Quiet]

Welcome Ant-toe-knee.

PGI? Maybe I'll have to pull my head out of the sand and give it a try. :)

[ant_toe_knee]

aren't I gorgeous?
but who's that guy with his arm round me?

[splat15k]

hahaha, welcome ant_toe_knee!

[Archangel Damien]

is PGI sold in canada?

[Doc Nickel]

Any chance I can get a copy of that Ultimate Equipment Guide with my comic in it? It seems nobody up here carries PGI and I've gotten no response to two 'official' requests for a subscription.

If you could make something like that happen, I'd probably stop saying all those nasty things about you.

Probably. :)

Doc.

[Remington]

Nice! PGI is one of the only two paintball magazines I actually read anymore(the other being P8NT). Anyway. Great to have you aboard "ant_toe_nee". Just remember, AO is the kind of family you don't introduce your friends to . . . unless of course they play paintball in which case tell them all about it! :D

Archangel Damien - PGI has different "subtitles" I guess you could call them. Look around for the PGI "North American" editions(I usually find it at a Barnes & Noble (http://www.bn.com) store).

[Clare]

[pito189]

The pictures in PGI are always awesome. They have the full page ones that are great.

Welcome, hang around and post awhile, it grows on you. :D

[Archangel Damien]

[kevdupuis]

Hello, And welcome to this den of Automag loving Psycho's.:D

[Marchborne]

Must...not...make..."Ant and Dec"...jokes...

Welcome to AO! At this rate, we're going to get all of the regulars from p8ntballer.com: Manike, Sparklie Chick, yerself... you WILL be assimilated!

(Sorry, could not resist the A&D reference). :D

[DiRTyBuNNy]

ATK is a good guy..Clare, Bea and myself partied with him during the paintball expo...except I was the only guy there wearing an Eclipse hoodie who didn't have an accent..but oh well..had to be there...

Welcome to AO, enjoy the sights, don't feed the animals, and watch out for the cphillip guy....he's got long hair.

[Load SM5]

...stinkin' long hairs......

[mrhooie]

Welcome to the only two things worth reading over and over again

PGI and AO

PGI's the only current magazine I can't stand not reading every month - and therefor the only mag I subscribe to

(yeah - I'm the crazy mofo in Northern Canada that gets PGI once a month ;))

[Dr David Banner]

More TJ Lambini - he's funny as hell!

The HB pics you guys ran were supersweet...hope your going to do the same with the Kid's win at Syball:D :D :D

[ant_toe_knee]

waiting for the skyball pics to arrive at the moment, so we'll see. but I plan to send a big shout out to the Kids, don't worry about that.

BTW, if anyone has any problems with subscriptions or getting hold of the mag, you can email our subs manager, Neil Martin, on [email protected]

and did you know we also publish a magazine about teddy bears? (thought it would probably interest some of you - I have heard the rumours). Look at that fine english spelling.

Pot <=- -=> Kettle

Oh great, Seems like there's nowhere I can go anymore without this crazy brit follwing me! STOP FOLLOWING ME!!!!!

:)

Hey Boss. How'zit shakin?

-Tyger

[manike]

Tyger it's part of our secret master plan... slowly the British will take over paintball... It's happening already and you can't do anything to stop it BWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


(well I can dream can't I? :) )

[The Frymarker]

Welcome aboard! There's some kind of weird musty smell around here though.:p

[ant_toe_knee]

that'll be tyger. I came here to escape his musty smell on P8ntballer. Now I discover he's here too.

so where are all your XMag pics? I've checked my inbox and very few of you have come up with the goods. (good work manike).

I can deduce the reason is one of two things:

a)you don't have cameras (or the memory is filled with 'other' pics)
b)you're not the true AGD disciples you claim to be and haven't actually bought XMags yet.

so which is it? or are you (c) - just plain useless?

did you pay for your hoodie?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[DiRTyBuNNy]

uuummmm...no...I get to thank Bea for the hoodie..but I am sporting my "I <3 your bunker!" PGI barrel condom...

[ant_toe_knee]

nice, glad to see you're representin'

[manike]

He's got you there Ant, being given it by Bea is far better than by Ledz eh? ;)

[ant_toe_knee]

he probably got the one I gave to Bea then

[manike]

Wouldn't Bea have wanted to keep it and cherish it forever? :rolleyes: :D

Nothing like smooth Brits on tour in the USA...


And we are nothing like... :)

[sniper1rfa]

b)you're not the true AGD disciples you claim to be and haven't actually bought XMags yet.


Blame it on Tom, hes stashed too many and is holding out on us... :p ;)

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Nah..she didn't get it through you, ATK...she just walked up to the guys at Eclipse and said..throw me a hoodie in XXL..and there it came flying out of the booth..though I did go back and buy the gray hoodie and a couple of shirts..(I really wanted one of those Eclipse EBlade cockers but they left the Blue/Black ones back home)

[Clare]

DB modeled it at the fashion show for Eclipse, therefore got to keep it. :)

[DiRTyBuNNy]

Yes..I am one sexy beast...while Claire was back keeping the X-Kitty safe from all the heathens I was out on the catwalk strutting my stuff...and btw..I know you don't have anymore pix but does anyone have pix from the party saturday night or more stuff from Sunday? I know I wormed myself into some other pix...I'll have to corner Bea this week in Cali to see what she has...

[WicKeD_WaYz]

ya when I joined AO they never gave me a big sticky thread that said "WELCOME RYAN TO AO!!"


so you must be pretty cool. welcome

[Riotz]

Welcome to AO Anthony! It was a blast hanging out with you guys in HB.

Now that everyone knows you are here, you have ANOTHER reason to stick around eh? *nudge* ;) ;)


As for not being true to AGD for not buying an XMag... Well, I'm sure lots more people would buy them, if they could find them. =\ :( If we ever get the one in at the PBX store, I will take lots of pictures for you, but it still hasn't arrived yet. :(


Anyways, Welcome again! Get Joe to sign up now. :D

Claire I hope you washed well after this photo.

Just to let you all know Ant is not really the power behind PGI, if it was not for Joe (he is quite hates the lime light) then Ant would be on the streets. Just thought I would let you all know................ It is true just ask Simon

[Clare]

Claire I hope you washed well after this photo.

Look! It's Tea Bag!

I see that you couldn't resist the urge to register just to poke fun at your best friend

How sweet! :p

Nope.

I'm pretty sure I DON'T KNOW your friend John Smith in London, or your Aunt Maggie in Scotland... or several others of the few Million that inhabit this country :rolleyes:

But I know most of the paintballers that frequent the forums :)

[Riotz]

How did you know I have an Aunt Maggie in Scotland? :eek: :p

[Tyger]

Originally posted by Riotz

Keep in mind that the UK isn't really that big, relatively speaking. It's like living in Chicago. Everyone who plays knows easch other, because you see each other all the time.

Oh, that'll get me in trouble...

-Tyger

[ant_toe_knee]

Actually, everyone knows piper cos you can see him wherever you are in England. He's the reason the sun never comes out.

I try to avoid Manike but he follows me around lke a lost puppy.

And who's Joe?

[manike]

.... in crime? ;)

[ant_toe_knee]

Wait. There was a party after the Expo?! I feel so sad now.:mad: Anywho, I'll catch it at the next SoCal meet.;)
