    I'll be there, not sure who I'm playing with yet, but there's talk of having "grab-bag" teams if players show up and want to play.

      More than likely Trracers / Tagmasters or the like. They're good guns, reliable and all that. Not to mention easy to get the feel for.

        Okay, I MUST get a pump team together now...

        Tyger, you going with ppig guys or something?

        Anyone near that field that would like to go, contact me to set up a team and start practicing pump play as much as possible! We can practice there, and fox paintball when the weather is nice.

        Thanks for the heads up Tyger, I've been waiting for something like this. Haha, except I'm the only person I know who plays pump round here.

          I'm not sure yet, I've gotta talk to a few people. I do know that I've got a spot to play on wiht the Fox team, but I gotta talk to a few people first. Oh yeah, rumormill time. The classic "Swarm" team may be there with Anihilators in tow.

          It's gonna be interesting.... Which brings me to another point. I talked to the field manager at Fox Paintball. At their "Real Free Day", if we can get 10 people playing pump, they'll let us play pumps only at the field. And they have pump rentals too. So, 10 people, we can play pumps only, without e-guns. And BYOP. How cool is that?

            Oh, so good teams are actually entering the tournament... Haha, I'm definitely out of it then. My friends aren't the best and STILL don't have pump guns, so they'd probably get their butts whooped, me along side them. So unless I find an already established team I'll just be there to watch and take pictures and help people out if needed.

            As for the fox real free day with pumps, I'd love that! Basically they'd have the regular free day people in one group (semi's etc), and all the pumpers in another group to play all by ourselves?

            That'd be pretty sweet!

                I know how that feels. Phantoms are SO fun to play with.

                  You don't lknow, pump guns are like a great equaliser. Besides, it's October. I say we hit up Fox River Paintball on the Real Free days, get the field to ourselve,s and hav e"pump clinics". By the time Oct 10th comes around, you'll have the skillz, yo.

                  -Tyger

                  (Yes, I'm volunteering to help teach, if nessary...)

                  Edit add : I'd like to see Total Greif there, as wella s teh Michigan guys (Weltman, Repoman...) and I know the Paintball Gunslingers are in Illinois too....

                    I'm in for that! I'm really just excited that there's even talk about pump play around here. I'll try and spark some interest in my buddies for the next free day. And I'll hype up the tourny and pump play whenever I go to the field.

                    And tony... If you don't mind buying things of pbnation you should really check on the pump buy/sell/trade forums. I've noticed a LOT of people selling of whole sets of phantoms and gear including the 4oz tanks, stocks, etc. You might be able to score yourself a cheap yet nice phantom.

                              New Developments In This Event!

                              Sorry to rehash the post here, but new developments and I didn't want to make a new post.

                              AS OF NOW they are accepting team registrations for this event.

                              http://www.pbshooters.com/5man%20pump1012.html That is all the info on it right now! And I should mention this. We've got 3 teams folying in fom Cali, and at least one from Texas. WE're working on getting more in-state hype for it too.

                              So let's get our teams together!
