CPX Living Legends Game - Roll Call

[cockerpunk]

Gordon, I think you are jumping to conclusions and reading into things that simply haven't happened.

When it came to your and my private discussion on Techpb, I simply stated I didn't want to support the site due to Mike's past actions of posting porn on PBN, and because I wasn't interested in all the hate, foul language, and drama. I'm still not interested in the hate, foul language and drama. It's not why I post on the paintball forums. That was something I said in private to you, so that can't be part of any "feud"?

I post on very few forums, and it's becoming less and less all the time. I rarely post on AO, The Tinkers Guild, and MCB, I post a little more often on PBN to support customers but that's about it.

Since you and I spoke, Mike approached me at the San Diego NPPL event and we discussed a lot of things for at least half an hour (including me giving him as much advice as I could on reballs and feeding them through loaders). At the end of it he told he had changed and was looking to do the right thing with Tech PB and helping people in paintball. I told him that was very cool, and the good stuff he was doing was great and that I hoped it continued and worked out for him.

I also saw him at Wayne's Grand Finale game where we were polite to each other and I saw no issues.

I didn't know of any other issue until your post in this thread. Your "something tells me thats not true" leads me to think I am missing something or someone is trying to create some drama I am unaware of?

I'm simply not interested in the drama, and will continue to try and stay out of it as far as possible. I suspect just answering your comments may drag me back into something but I also don't know how to make the truth be heard without exercising my voice?

no no no, far from it. when people break off lines of communication is when the real trouble starts. then everyone gets defensive and pissed, and nothing ever works out. this is why banning and censorship never make you friends, only enemies. and yes, i tred that fine line between letting the truth be herd as i see it, and getting banned far to often. recently that didn't play out so well on MCB ...

im glad you have worked though your issues, thats a very good thing.

we will have to find each other and sit down for a chat at LL. i now have high speed at my disposal too, so not only talk though the drama i have with PBN, which you told me to talk to you about at LL, and some technical stuff too. i dont know how much experience you have trying to film paintball spin, because that how i spent my last 3 days. looks pretty promising right now too.


really, i hate the drama too. my goal is simply to get information out there. i know you and jack and people would like to participate more and i think punkworks has really opened the discussion up about this kind of stuff. you are always more then welcome in my forums. punkworks is definetly the least drama filled forum i have ever seen, mainly cause we dont let it get like that.

Nice to see a few of you out there today.....hope to run into more Sunday

[Ninjeff]

LL was an epic time indeed. Good to see a few mag supporters out there. Unfortunately i didnt get to meet as many of you as i wanted to, or talk to you for as long either.

I did shoot the SP general.....but didnt get the Gardners at all. Although, i will say shooting my own general was a happy mistake. He was poking out of the woods, gun raised and looking at me. Hey, i didnt take a chance and one balled him.

He was still talking about it sunday. OOPS!

Still, charging over the hill during the finale, double fisting my mag and a tac 8 was a blast. Also got some free first strike rounds to try out.

[cockerpunk]

neither of the garnders attended the event, thats why you didn't shoot them.

soooo what was this event like?

To be honest, the first day was kind of a bust. I hate the woods at CPX, as its like fighting in a jungle. If you play pump, or actually use single shot semi (like myself) its almost impossible to get kills. The fighting seemed to swing back and forth. There was some cool moments, like one balling a dude in the head at about 120 feet with my pump. He tried to make a run for cover and i just put one ball in the air just right, and SPLASH! got him. Only to turn to my left and see the tank turning its guns on me. I jumped up, and took off running yelling "TANK!!!!!" to the only guy left defending me. The tank ripped off TONS of rounds but none managed to get me. I swear it felt like something out of a movie. Very very cool.

As always with big scenarios at CPX, the finale is the saving grace. Everyone piles into Bedlam and Armagheddon and fights to the teeth for one hour. 400 or so people fighting over a single 20 ft. high hill. EPIC battle ensues. Paint everywhere (and i mean EVERYWHERE). Its always at the end, so everyone is shooting whatever paint they can. Its like that scene from 300 only with paintballs. I managed 8 confirmed kills while sitting just below our side of the hill. Right arm was firing my mag over the hill (i would pop up and take aim as fast as i could...got 3 down by a carner of a building) and left hand was weilding a Tac8. I used that to get two guys that tried to run up the hill and hit the plunger thing to score points. It was truely a fight.
I was lucky enough to play with Damage Inc. the whole weekend and those guys really know how to rock and roll.

As usual, saturday left me feeling a bit let down that i had paid all that money for entrance, hotel, paint, food, and the like, but sundays battle over that freaking hill made everything 100% worth it. It was a truely awesome battle. Worthy of every penny i spent to be there. Not to mention you havent lived until you've followed Conan from Damage Inc over the hill full charge while he wields a double a5 machine gun creation blasting paint and sounding like a hive of bees carrying MG42s. And you make every attempt to contribute with a mag and tac 8. I cant tell you how many times i got shot on that run alone, but i CAN tell you every welt felt like a badge of honor.

Another cool thing is that i guess Viper had paid CPX a sum of money sunday to give free concessions to anyone with a game pass. Soda, chips, hot dogs, pizza, whatever. It was a welcome relief after a hard day.

The refs were good. As always i dont envy the ones that were reffing that hill. I happened to LOVE the paint. It shot dead straight for me. So well i was even tagging guys feet if they let them poke out. And that was without spraying paint too. Some others may have a different opinion, but i loved it.

you seemed to be in a bad mood sunday man.....did something bad happen? Or were you just....focused....?

really? thats what it seemed like?

no it was quite the opposite, i was enjoying the day of play on sunday alot more then saturdays playing. that city field is second to none, and playing it with a phantom is like a stock players dream.

idk when you cought me, maybe i was thinking about something else that moment.

LL 2 was great. I had an awesome time. CPX isn't the greatest for scenarios. The long narrow playing field makes for a tiring weekend especially for big guys like me. I would have liked to see our "general" on the field more but it was expected.

It was great seeing old friends and meeting new ones. Vendors were abundant and generous. The Spyder girls were easy on the eyes

Paint shot great. Some of the guys were complaining of bounces but I didn't have too much of a problem. I'm glad CPX brought in Indiana Air for the HPA fills. CPX refs were alot better this weekend than past events there.

I expected the score to be alot closer than it was. SP had some hard hitting teams like Blues Crew. Nice to see tanks out there. Hellions had a sweet one. Buckshot really did a great job with his for the red side.

Viper did another great job!

figured thats what it was. I kind of caught you right before we headed out to the finale' I was rolling with the Damage inc. guys.
I couldnt tell if you were po'd about something or just tired of the hubbub and ready to play.

I had a blast, I got to meet and hang out with a bunch of people like Tyger, Borg, Cockerpunk, pretty much everyone who was there for techpb. I hope to see you guys at another event soon!
