Fastest Fingers Contest

[Mongoose]

So what about RT mags?

Sure......but one pull one shot
not much skill in holding in the trigger

[rawbutter]

Rawbutter...are you iceman on the other forum
funny that we were thinking alike yesterday " although u did beat me to it" lol

Dang it... my cover's blown.

i'm just intrested in how fast people can shoot in semi...how did the winner do in the last contest years back??? becouse i dont think 20 bps in semi is possible

The winner in the last contest was 68MagOwner with 15.8 balls per second. The rules were a little more stringent, though, and there apparently wasn't as much competition.

I didn't read through the entire thread of the last contest (it was over eight pages long), but it did seem like there was a lot of drama. I, like you, am really just intriguied by how fast some people are, and I'd love to see some video proof. It seems that things got a little carried away in the last contest (probably because there were some huge prizes at stake.... like almost $100 to the winner).

I just want this to be plain and simple. Prove how fast you are with a video, and the rest of us get to be amazed. Sounds like a good time to me.

mongoose,

I analyzed your vids. Your pneumag shooting averaged 8.6 over your best five seconds (although you did max out around 13). You did have some big gaps, though. If you could redo it with five continuous seconds, you could probably do better.

Your Mini shooting is around 14.2 bps, and it's very consistent. Nice job!

thanks i'll make another vid of the pnuemag

I think he maxed his pneumag at 15 or 16 before and that was with paint...I thought the mini was shooting faster than that, but I guess not eh

do i need to show everyone up?

please do!!!!

I'm always open to second opinions. If you analyze the video audio file yourself and come up with some different numbers, let me know.

Wow. Good for you Rawbutter. I've been wondering if there would ever be another AO bps contest.

I took part in the last contest, and yes, It was difficult getting contestants. I think a major part of that was that people had to shoot paint in the video, which means a) problems with getting two peaks on the goldwave (shot and splat) per shot and b) wasting paint not shooting people at the field. Also 10 seconds was much harder than 5 seconds. It required at least a full hopper per take, perhaps a hopper+pod. I agree that dry-firing is probably adequate, as long as the marker is performing complete cycles, etc (which is why the last contest had paint a requirement).

Also, we need some way to verify whether the video is being sped up or not, if possible, like a watch showing the second hand at the beginning of the video, and again at the end, to show that time has stayed constant.

I don't think I'm going to compete this time around, my fingers are too slow for this contest (12 last time), but I'm interested in seeing where this goes.

Last contest's winning video actually didn't conform to the rules, but got the "benefit of the doubt", which I really hope you avoid this time. The whole point of rules is to avoid getting the benefit of the doubt.

Disclaimer: I did participate in the last contest (2nd place).

I am waiting to see if blazestorm gets his videos up, so I don't have to bother entering.

Heres my entry for mech, Ult
Click here to watch "Bps-test"
as far as i can tell my average was 9 or 9.5. can someone else verify this?
my peak in another video was 14 but i cant sustain that very long

im going to try again later when i get more air i was down to 700 psi in that vid

Sorry jade... I totally skipped over you somehow.

<--that's me.

You're 5-second average is 9.6 bps. You have some really hot strings for two or three seconds, but it's tough to keep it up for a full five, isn't it?


But that's straight ULT, right? No pneumatics? You're going to have to tell me how you did that.

although people do make mistakes i think there should only be one judge for the final numbers. keep it consistent

yeah that is ult, no bounce whatso ever, 800 psi input.

and i couldnt tell you how exactly i got my ult so sensitive. i used to have 6 shims. then i took one out..then another...then another, its only got 1 shim in it now and all it takes to activate the trigger is any movement period...maybe 40+ cases of paint through it broke it in nicely

ill be adding a second one in later once my gforce pnue frame comes in. hopefully it shows before then end of the contest.

Ok hopefully this kicks some people in the pants and gets more submissions.

This was recorded in 05 not too long after the original BPS contest. Please use the first 5 seconds of shooting. Question - the gun obviously skips a couple of shots, however you can clearly see I am triggering, so do those count?

I believe this would be exactly 14.0 BPS with the skipped shots, 13.6 without.

Thanks for the video!

To answer your question, if the gun doesn't shoot, then it can't be counted as a shot. I believe that you're hitting the trigger, but I can't count how many times your fingers are hitting the trigger in one second. I have to rely on a sound recording of the firing sequence and count the spikes... and trigger hits don't register as spikes. Only shots do.

I analyzed your vid, though, and I got 14 bps. I'll add you to the runnings.

not the best.

this was my old viking last year before it was milled and got the robtown valve
