          I would also prefer a private group. Somebody is going to have to research that. $$$, # of people, etc.

                A private group is just that; it's a group that goes by itself to play on fields.
                Party groups go against others people; Party groups are "teams," per say.

                A private group would be a little too difficult to pull off. It requires 30 people and that might not be possible. A party group is more feasible, and probably not as bad as some of you might think.
                Maybe I could get the refs to give us a break and let us play alone, though.

                  Basically a Party group plays with the Walk-on crowd (not my personal preferance)

                  Private Group plays only within the group. (more fun in my book)

                    Well all the times ao socal has had a full blown event at sc, we played eachother most of the time, there are so many of us, we just take fields over, play at will, the re pod and air up, take a new field, and so on and so on, once in a while we have people jump in if we are short or they just wanna play, but more often then not they don't stick around, we aren't exactly rookies, so the walk ons shy from us, and well guys like me and tach, scare the beejezzus out of agg kids...I say we play like we always do, walk on, take over fields, its worked so far on evry field except the airball field, and we didn't like that field anyways

                      Saw sk8termog today at Giant paintball. He said he may be able to hook us up. We will need a fairly accurate list of who's coming. Mainly #'s. Then he can try to work some magic.

                          As smoothice said, we were down at giant. Here's my assesment of the fields.

                          Giant paintball is basically located in the main arena field where the OC NPPL tournament was. The speed ball field is comfortable at the most for a 5 on 5 any more and you'd feel crowded. Sort of like splat factories field sizes. The recball fields kind of look like the mad max fields in Hollywood sports just a tad bit smaller. Both fields would feel uncomfortable if it was more than 15 on 15. We saw Mog there and he did a good job reffing the crew there but later in the afternoon the numbers swelled at Giant and the fun deflated a bit since the crowding became an issue. If they combine the recball fields as per the future plans it may resolve the issue.

                          it doesn't get the seal of approval for an ao socal since our numbers swell as the sun goes up I wouldn't suggest giant for the group to go to. Conquest/HSP/Conquest and JUngle should be more than able to accomodate the group and as Smoothice said; Sk8erMog might be able to hook us up with something.

                            I think what he meant was that we invaded the speedball fields there. We did not go to the recball fields and kept it pretty much a hyperball/speedball type of event. If we do go to sc village and want to play the recball/scenario fields then we will require some considerable planning and money up front folks. 120 is a lot to ask for but can we do it guys? Can we scratch up some money to transfer to someones paypal account so they can put a deposit in to SC?
                            Or is someone willing to pony up 120 for the deposit?

                              I would be putting the deposit down, and I would be repaid on the day by everyone
                              I don't have a validated paypal account (in fact I've been using my friend's for all my transfers), so that plan wouldn't work anyways. As long as I know I'd be returned my 120.00, I'd have no problem doing it. That's one of the reasons why I've been pushing for people to get their opinions in.

                                My AO Bros. It was great seeing some of you guys out at Giant the other day. Sorry it was so muddy and crouded. Thursdays and Sundays are bring your own paint so by mid afternoon it gets a bit crowded.

                                Ok so for this SOCAL AO event I just talked with my manager at SC and he has offered everyone in the group free air! That's $10 off right there. He offered me paint at $30 a case for some of our better SC paint and we are working out a deal for entry which currently stands at $20/person for a private group. What that means is we would need at least 30 players and we'd get our own ref who would get us on the scenario fields by ourselves as a group and get us on the hyperball fields when ever we want. This is the best way to do it because the ref can kick people off the fields and help the games go smoother as needed. I can make sure we get a good ref since I know most of the private group refs over there and I'll keep in contact with the owners of SC and managers to make sure everything is taken care of for us. The more paint we buy from them the happier they will be of coarse, but feel free to bring your own paint. I told them we are a bunch of older mature (at least some of us guys that love paintball and want to have a good time without causing any problems. I also mentioned that last time people flew out for the event and that got my manager interested in maybe trying to make this an annual thing.

                                So now all I need are some total numbers and at least 2 weeks notice of the date we are going. Also I can take care of the deposite and registration for everyone going. Deposite will only need to be about $100 and at $20 a person for everything that shouldn't be too hard to get. Feel free to pm me any questions or if you want to talk to me about this whole thing then please pm me because I tend to get lost in threads when I'm at work. Thanks.
