Florida peeps...step up!!

[Wes Janson]

Chris mostly runs things, and usually there's a couple volunteers. The fields aren't too big, the players generally don't cause problems, and there isn't a whole lot to be done that isn't done by Cathy or Chris, so...I doubt it :/ I don't think (with the possible exception of one guy) anyone there is paid. Sorry.

Anyone in orlando?

I live in orlando like right near orlando paintball. i use to work with Larry King at a paintball world when it was next to I-4 but i had to move here in Germany. Hopefully i will be back soon to start playin again. I have a hypermag lookin to get some upgrades for it. (14in Freak,ULE,X-valve,and either Omega Rail or Rouge Rail) so if u can help it would be great. I'm jus lookin to see who was in orando and how the fields were at OP. I was also thinkin of starting a thread for FL peeps to post pics of their guns unless its been done already? Thanx for your time.

hey spyder, welcome!

do you know kris le from the old paintball world?
he's "zippy" on this forum. he tells me he worked there rougly the time you said you two may know each other.
he's in the orlando area still.

there is also ignatz, warped1 and several other people in the orlando area.

we post pics on this thread or whatever and whereever.

i havn't head many good things about orlando paintball. i've never been there myself, so i can't and won't publicly comment.
i hear they opened up an indoor place. i woukld like to check that out one day.

[spyder56]

Thanx for the welcome, Um that name doesnt sound familiar but i worked with Ian "Tank" and Brandon and Bret and another guy, he had dreads and worked there for a long time. they were great people to work with, very knowledgable staff. i loved working there on Friday and Saturday nights when all the motorcycles and inport cars use to race down the highway. ne way just get back to me.

Paint is loaded and ready. Only 24 more hours...

[Wes Janson]

BTW...I meant to pick up a flyer for the game but didn't. Does anyone know what the times are, when I should show up and when it ends?

[Lee]

theres a flyer?

i was planning on getting there about 9'ish.

the party ends when I leave....

[Wes Janson]

Yeah, they had a hundred or so flyers advertising it at Hi-Tech, but being occupied with the nubs, and running things, I didn't pick one up..and when I went to grab one, they had been put away already. It was a rather elaborate colored printout, with the halo logo, images, etc. I wish I'd gotten one :/

[Lee]

well dang. guess i'll just have to wait until tommorrow!

[zippy]

Spyder56: Wow another LArry robot! I worked for Larry for like 5 years, i started there when it was still behind Old town in Kissimmee, those were the good days. I opened the field off of I-4, and I know tank he is a good kid. Welcome to to forums, we will have to get together sometime and play ball, lots of cool people in here to play with, so keep in touch everyone gets together pretty often to play.

[spyder56]

well i would love to play with you guys but im in germany for a while so......
by the way Zippy whats your name? how long did u stay at the field by I-4? thanx

[zippy]

Spyder56: I would say I was at the field for about a year after it opened. You probably dont know me, My name is KRis Le. But the NAme STeve Shark might ring a bell, he managed a while there after I left. He is a good guy it sucks what Larry did to him. If you never met him, i;m sure you heard someone talk about him at some point. Anyway Whenever you get back from Germany you gotta drop a line and let us know when you are ready to do some ballin.

Well guys I have gone and done it. My green EMag is in Alaska, bought by a gentleman going by Scottay. I managed to nab Punisher Paintballs last gold non vision 03 shocker. Yes I know. Blasphemy. My brother owns two and they are really sweet so I fell prey to Smart Parts. I should have it soon and look forward to hooking up with some Florida peeps soon.

[Lee]

chris: don't forget to update your sig!

i like the shockers too, very fast and nice looking to boot. and i play with my pumps and bushy more than i do my mag. how's that pump cocker project going?

ao is a state of mind, not a marker.....

i went to snookers place in bredenton last sunday and played a one day scneario game. 160 people on like 20 acres or maybe a little less.
firefight after gunfight after pitched battle. what a blast. we rocked the other team.
20$ got entry, all day air and a great home cooked bbq w/ pork, turkey, chicken and all the goodies. homemade cupcakes too!

only two ao'ers other than snooker....me and wes janson. he's fearless! what a gamer. it was nice to finally meet him though he'll talk your ear off lol...sorry wes...but it's true! played about 6 hours and had to bail due to the drive home and early work day monday. well worth the trip and bob (snooker) is a great guy.

there were issues, but it was thier first attempt at this type thing and they got like 60 more people than they expected. they did an admiral job overall and the quality and quantity of play overshadowed any difficulties imho. i'll go to the next one for sure.

i'll be goin to showdown sometime early next month. i'm going to check out hearndons battlezone in plant city on the 28th. i hear it's decent field.

holler if any of you all want to hook up.....

[TheDuelist]

The pump project is currently on hold pending fiscal budget restrictions being lifted from my "financial advisor." Once I get a few things out of the way I see no reason why it shouldn't move forward soon.

Sorry I missed Snookers, it sounds like you guys had a blast. I look forward to trying to make the next one should there be one.

Keep me posted on the Showdown situation and i'll see what I can do to make it.
