    Who is me?

    That random loud mag guy that got dragged into the big-scenario game scene by his love to hang out with fellow ao'ers... and who'd a thunk it... its grown on me

    Thanks to the random AO'ers and my buddies on Evil INC for fostering my induction to scenario ball. Much love, even for the much abused Cherry.

        Here's my ID and credentials.

        Real name is Keith. I've been involved in the sport for about 5 or 6 years now, mostly scenario games. I'm finally getting into the area where I actually have a "disposable income" and so I can enjoy the sport a bit more. I steered towards the scenario games because they were definate dates that I could save for. With recball it was to easy to blow it off for work or school.

        I plan to get into it more this summer and each summer hereafter but during the winter I usually stop playing. There are just no really good indoors fields for my style of play. I prefer a very large field. Once my schedule evens out I'll be looking for a solid groups of guys to start a scenario/recball team with. I'm just not that interested in competition play. This is a hobby for me and I choose to leave the competition at the office.

        When not playing I often fill the role of "paintball evangelist". I know all the statistics of sport safety (did you know that baring general sport related injuries, water polo is more dangerous that paintball) and act pro-actively in the shaping of public opinion about the sport. When Baltimore was attempting to pass some rediculous legislation to essentaily ban the sport in the particular city I was very involved in generating the grassroots movement that would have fought to prevent the passage of the bill but the bill was simply ignored and sunset out without ever being brought before the council.

        I'm thinking of building a tank sometime in the coming years using the FireStormCrank and a multi-shot capable. The tank would double as a troop carrier. As soon as I pass my welding cert tests and get my ASE certification I'll be getting started on it. Hopefully it will be hitting the fields by 2010. Think custom welded nightmare ala "Animal House" with Mattracks and you will have only scratched the surface.

        Well, that's pretty much all about me.

          Well..I'll introduce myself...my name is Danial "Dirty Bunny" Lathum. I've been involved in Paintball for about 10 years now (this year is year #10). I've played scenario and tourney paintball and since I'm getting up there in years (27 is old for tourneys these days) I've decided to go back to teh fun side of paintball and get more into scenarios. The last two scenarios I was involved in were a few years ago although I did help a little with MPP's game with Tom vs. Bud a year or so ago. I was a part of two of the MXS games in Escondido in 2001 (Four Horsemen) and 2002 (Anasazi). I'm not part of any team; i usually just latch onto a good group of guys when I get there and have fun with them.

            I started playing in 1986 with a Splatmaster. I soon bought 3 more just so I could have other people with guns to play with. I would spring for the paint and CO2 as well. I still have 3 of those first guns. For several years, I was out of the game as I drove a truck over the road. I finally got a local job and started thinking about getting back into the game, but the nearest place to play was an hour away and didn't really cater to the kind of paintball that I enjoy most........woods play. So, I started kicking around the idea of throwing together a small field to get people to come to me to play with and maybe in the process I would get some excercise. Well, evidently, I don't know when to quit. Four years and a lot of sweat and money later, I am still building, trying to make each game a little better than the last and add more infrastructure to the field and camping/staging area.

            To give the player a great game at a great price. That is my bottom line. This isn't my bread and butter nor do I expect it to ever be. I do paintball because I enjoy it and I want to host and produce games for others who enjoy it. I want all of my players to have fun and play safely and with integrity. Safety is number one at my field as it should be at every field. If you want to play at a game where safety and honesty come first, give us a
            "heads up" and let us know you are coming. We'll throw another burger on the grill for you. Safety, honesty, fun.....in that order. Smak Zone Paintball

              Hello all,

              I'm Lawrence & have been playing paintball since 1988 (16 years now ). Just recently got into scenario play - although if I had known more about it, I would have been doing it for years as well.

              I'm now part of the Knight Stalkers Scenario Team - www.knightstalkerspaintball.com - we are a team dedicated to bringing more scenarios to Maryland. Our home field is Outdoor Adventures in Bowie, MD - www.oapaintball.com - and we are actively working with the field owners to bring a major scenario to the field sometime in 2005.

              We just got back from Final Countdown, a Blackcat Production, at Skyline Paintball in Strasburg, VA - where we all had a blast! The team has a full schedule for the next few months - including the Ghost Mountain Scenario at EMR in late October.

                  Thanks much! We saw you guys out at Contagion back in May - It was a blast to hang with you guys (although we sure as heck didn't see too much of you out on the field, you were too busy tearing the other team apart).

                  Too bad nightplay got cancelled on Sat. - but we were at Skyline this past weekend & it rained most of the day on Saturday this time around, by mid-afternoon you could barely walk around without slipping and sliding - so the night game might have been a bit much (don't want anyone getting hurt).

                  Final Countdown was great - Booyah makes an interesting general, to say the least.

                  See you around!

                      Hey everyone!!

                      Well, for those who don't know me yet, my name is Trina DuBois and I've been playing paintball for about 6+ years now and love every aspect of it.

                      I don't really play on a scenario team or anything, but end up going out on the field with different people each time. I like playing with anyone and everyone! I think some of what makes it fun for me, is to get out and play with people I've never met and afterwards getting to know eachother and talking about the events of the day!

                      I was in the Army for 5 years, so I've learned a little tactical stuff in basic...and being married to "AO's Drill Sergeant", Doobie, well that helps too

                            Alright fine!

                            Im Eric of Extreme Measures of Connecticut. we are a local paintball team that mainly plays backwoods games we can put together in places that require us having scubatanks. i have been playing for 4 years now and have put more money into this sport/passion than i could ever admit except to a priest on my death bed. we have been to the twin towers, return of the king, return to the wolves lair, Shatner 2 and 3, War of attrition, 3 Castle quests, Eight leged Freaks and i am sure have left a few out. we play at Stragity Plus in CT, EMR, and where the paint may fly.
                            i run group homes for the MR was a Fireman and many otherthings too and if anyone ever wants to question how much i love this sport, well you better have a mask on, cuz your gonna get painted.

                            Im Eric of Extreme Measures
