Mags in Tourney's,or ReckPlay.''Stories

[fflamingmoe]

I would like to hear the awesome stories that you have had with your Mags on the field.
Tell me what your most rememberable game was like.
It could be a 1 on 1 like i hade with a Cocker player last year that lasted over 15 minutes or anything that you wouldn't forget.

One time, I took my mag to the field, and it was awesome.

Except that was every time I took my mag to the field.

I just got back into turny play this year. The first one I used my pnuemag, my team took 2nd. The one after that, I used a etek2, and we took 3rd. So the next one(next month) Im going back to the mag. But this time it will be a ep mag. Hopefully we will do rather well.

What I do love, is all the refs and players asking what gun I have. Then when I tell then they laugh at me, but it is short lived once I start playing.

[fflamingmoe]

Yup i get the stare down all the time with what gun is that. :spit_take

Fricking crazy Canadian, lol.

I played a tourney with my mag last year, and I got questions all day long about what kind of gun I was using. Some of the guys knew what a mag was but not many of them considering that the average player was somewhere around 15-18 years old. I shot a few people off of the break, and some of the people couldn't believe it. Not sure why considering that the cap was 10.5 and I could pull 8 consistently with my mag.My favorite part was in the 4th game getting in a 1 on 1 with a guy shooting a brand new Luxe. I was at the 50 X and he was still at home, and he was just constantly shooting at me in ramp when I just snapped out and one balled him in the lens for the win. I had a great time even though we ended up placing like 7th or something. I went on to play one more tournament with those guys, and then separated ways with them. I have been looking for some other guys to play tourneys with but to no prevail, and I haven't really had the cash this year either.

maybe you're not getting the stare down because of the gun but more because you're canadian.


It's possible ..... i'm just sayin.

The last time i took my mag to our local field i got the usual what kind of gun is that questions. By the end of the day there were a few of the regular kiddies w/their ego's and DM's that were asking me if my mag was for sale

I told them i wish to be buried with it.

[fflamingmoe]

What i didn't uderstand is that usually Cocker players know what a Mag is.
I still don't know what happend in the show down because the guy ran and it was over.
I still don't know if he was out of paint or or just ran because i was laceing him full of paint.
I didn't make any ball brakes on him at all.
What i think it was,is that my snap-shooting over the top was too much.
The fight was maybe about 15 feet from each other.
And i just wanted say that i felt like Darth Vader in the fight. :spit_take

Stay tight and hold your formations.

This.


Actually, my favorite thing is spools. I'll work the lower corners, 3/9 o'clock and lower, because of the warp feed. Nobody expects you to come out that low, always gets them off guard... even if I've gotten them out like that before!

I love the fact that the no hopper on top lets people overlook your barrel a lot. I've taken "tactical cover" (get behind something as best you can while aiming at the attacker) many times before and had people just plain ignore me!
One time in particular I was going into a pallate and someone saw me from my 2-3 o'clock. I duck down behind it but never drop my barrel or head down from over the top, and turn to face him.
He then looks to his 12 o'clock, stops shooting at me, and I "remind" him of my presence with a ball upside his head!


I know these are warp-feed stories, but what better warp platform than an Automag?



I also like the fact that when someone asks to see my gun I hold it out. When they grab it they nearly fall forward with the weight of it! Then they ask me how I am able to run with it, I say one foot in front of the other.
Later, when I run low on paint and switch to SC, I am literally the fastest player on the field :rofl:

And has anyone tryed to walk slow with your head down thinking your hit then tag them?

Or have your shoe fall off and they still think your at the same bunker?

Those are some cool stories guy's.

The first thing you menationed is called the "Dead man's walk" and will easily get you ejected from many fields...

And secondly, none of your stories are featuring an Automag...

A dead mans walk will not pull you from a game.
I play Pro as well,there is no rule for a dead mans walk if your not hit.
That's like saying your pods empty. :spit_take
I've been playing since 1996
If you give no Indication your hit and your walking slow it don't matter.
The ref has to call you out.
And yes i do shoot an E-mag.
That's all i shoot is a mag so are you telling me i lie?
It's people like you that assume too much.
You must be one of those suckers because the first thing you learn is i'm hit with hands up.
And the ref does his job to check at all times that is his job.

There are people that would say you cheated because you didn't have your gun high enough or too low enough when you take them out on the brake.
You must complain alot no?

That's like jogging to the flag and no one tags you lol.
And a dead mans walk could also look like your jogging.

[DeuceSV]

I smell a storm a-brewin'

[fflamingmoe]

Nah,I'm not like that,
I let people say what they want i won't stop them.
I'm a little too crazy too care about what people think of me.
If i ever cheated Bill would ban me for good.
He's been the father that started it all here and i wouldn't do that to him or the sport.
I don't think i could live with myself if i ever cheated.

I'm a good guy and would never trash anyone on here, and it's good to have a good talk about good and fair play.

But is the oldest trick in the book that is legal.
I'm not trying to mess with anyone or anything.

I'm an old timer and it's still legal to dead-walk.

[bound for glory]

i had the 3rd mag in new jersey. when i went to play at paintballers guild in pa. it was an eye opener, to say the least
see, those guys were shooting illistraters and the first tippman semi(i can't for the life of me remember the name...i remember dave artler from pursuit paintball made the tip and strip mode for it...well) and the owner of the encounter, mark kilpinski did everything he could to sell me a illisrater. well, i took a chance, sold my grey ghost(miss that gun) and paid $425 for my mag.
anyway, i made the mags point at the target range. walked up, filled my hopper(old view loader) and blew through it. just blasted it as fast as i could. people were like
see they did'nt notice a very quite hiss coming down my barrel. i did. so i left them there with there eyes agog and went to my car and changer out a very cold power tube o ring
got alot of kills that day. i remember unloading on a guy from the scum dogs. he had a pmi 3 if i remember right.
oh, to have those days back

[fflamingmoe]

Well looks like the game i'm playing is go for tomorrow.
Looks like it will be a game of slip and side haha.
It's pretty wet here with lots of rain.
