AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
i would like to thank mel and the whole pbx group for making us feel right at home. thanks to agd for making such great products for us to party about. and thanks to everyone who went for being so nice.
oh my friend who came with me was using a spyder so he couldnt participate in the 3 man tourney. he said he had a blast playing in the woods fields and also said he couldnt have had a better day.

It is coming.... I've got writing to do and Dawn has photo galleries to put together...
We just got home a little while ago - Sunday was spent in Manhattan seeing the sights, and today we were in New Jersey, and we're only in the office part of the day tomorrow (taking our church youth group to the climbing gym).
I do want to take a moment early on to say what a great day it was. A big thanks to Mel and Steve (partners in the Paintballistix field) for hosting the event. Also to Jon for talking us into coming up there. Gunga and Capo made excellent teammates - Gunga makes a great back player - you'd never know it was his first tournament though as he's been playing paintball as long as I have, and Capo is invisible to paint, hardly anyone could hit her. And of course thanks to Patron God of Pirates for putting those two shots in my back up close and personal when I was looking the wrong way :-) It was great to get to meet everyone (cphilip was easy to recognize - he really is the cutest moderator), and I can only echo the sentiments of it being a "safe" place, where you could leave out your gear and not worry that someone was going to walk off with it. Thanks also to Suann Maravilla, who was an excellent host and tour guide for the weekend.
See you on the field,

It was really great that you could come up to join us Bill, you guys earned some respect on the field. Dawn certainly shows no fear armed with her camera amidst the barrage of paint flying back and forth. :) I hope next time I can work up the courage to sit in on one of your chats, they certainly seem educational, I was just starstruck at the time.

You know now that this has been confirmed. Even Jon says so. Thing that has me a little stumped is all of the ones who think so are guys! Perhaps it's the long hair? I would feel a little more...ummmm...er..."Comfortable" if some of the ladies would chime in...
AGD, where we are so good we can do it with only ONE tube!
I certainly had a great time and hope to do it again soon. and if we chant long and hard, maybe Tom can come out with us
My thanks goto to Mel, Steve, and the PBX crew (way too many to name) for getting the field up and going in the last month. They really put a lot of hard work just to get the field ready considering Riotz and Myself only gave Mel one month's time to prepare. GREAT JOB GUYS
More thanks goto the AO members that sacrificed game time to help get everything on the ball.
Thanks to Cap for taking time out to come and visit.
Thanks to Graycie for making awesome cookies as well as taking time out to come and visit us from PA.
Thanks to Gunga, Mark, and Fred just for being there from Chicago, showing that yes, we do come from everywhere just to make AO meets.
Thanks to Cphilip (really strange little fellow but yes, he is the cutest moderator, and fatman for making the long haul from SC.
Thanks to the Mills for coming out. It was great seeing you guys again :)
And Special thanks to Riotz and black cell, as well as Kaiser Bob, for helping get the field organized the day before as well as for the many long hours of planning that we all spend conversing through email and phones just to get the big day going.
I must say, which takes more balls, going out to a speedball tourney with a chair, or playing speedball with 2 sydarms...
Either way, This was better than last. Can't wait for AO Party in NJ 3 :-)
