Colorado AO meet? Anyone?

[Koosh]

I don't know about that, I can imagine will be pretty hard to stuff my 6'2" and 215 pounds behind a small *** bunker... I think I'll get the most welt award...

Oh well, it will be fun!

[bsolomon]

I said bunkers, but I didn't say anything about small!

Many of them are condominium sized, and most of them you can actually stand in and play. There are several that are actually small forts. The cable spools are the 8-10' diameter size, and many of the bunkers are combos - an area of stick bunker attached to a 1/2 to full sheet of plywood, attached to a cable spool. Often you will find 3 or 4 players all in the same bunker. There are only a few that I remember having to actually sqeeze into.

Ok I just reread my post and realized I actually said the above. SO to preempt any comments....change guppie to pod.


Heheh yeah see every once in awhile short is good. 5'6" always fits!

This will be my first non-outlaw game also. I am really getting excited about it. I catch alot of crap from my buddies for sinking all the $$$ I have into my mag just to go play in the woods or the desert. All the crap stops when they are messing around with their spyders, rebels, tippmans, etc. trying to make them work and I show up, feed my mag paint and air, and am ready to play.

One question, how old is everybody that is going play? Just curious, I am 30, one of the other guys coming with me is 40 something.

[ShooterJM]

I'm 23, people that might come with me are 25-45 (if they come, they seem a bit intimidated).

[bsolomon]

I'm 37. I been playing since 1992. I played serious amateur tournaments for about 6 straight years (even won an IAO 5 man once). Now I mostly play scenarios. Either way, I'm used to dumping alot of paint if needed. I've used nothing but AutoMags since about 1994.

No need to be intimidated if you haven't played organized paintball before. We'll just call you targets...

[dawump]

I'm 34.

I usually shoot about 1000-1200 in a half day, so no doubt will drop a case on the 14th. It varies. They like to get everyone to play speedball once in a while so they can make some money, but most 25 minute games I shoot about 300.

As far as cover goes, there's a great variety. The main area is so wide that there are various ways from one end to the other, and there's alot of light brush, trees and high grasses on the river side which is pretty good.

Geez... Im the young one over here... I am only 18...

[obsolete898]

I'm 22 and Hemlock is 25.

[adam68c]

Im also only 18. Me and the flamingkoosh are at CSU. This whole time I was expecting to play speedball but from the way you guys describe the field it sounds like woods or wood/speedball. I was just wondering because I dont got any camo or anything like that. I guess im going if the flamingkoosh is still offering a ride. We should try and meet or something right now im in the weber comp lab since i dont have my comp yet. Im in the Ingersoll dorm rm# 378. I havn't remembered my ph# yet but when I do I'll try and get that to you.

[Koosh]

Hehe, yeah, my offer still stands. Tomorrow I have class from 11-1, then I have off until 3, so in that 2 hour window, I got nothing going on...

Give me a call on my Cell phone, 275-4100, its weird, if you call form a house, you have to put in 1-970-275-4100, but from another cell you don't need the area code.

Cool... now I don't have to make that drive alone!

[ShooterJM]

Eh I don't have any camo stuff either, but I normally just wear shorts or jeans when playing.

[bsolomon]

Don't worry about the camo - you won't get much use for it at this field anyway.

[ShooterJM]

Assuming I can get the frame I'm working on up and running, would you guys mind checking it out and giving me your opinions on it? Like how to make it better, etc? Need some feedback that's not my own.

[Deathbringer]

I will also be joining TheFlamingKoosh... i am one of his friends that "quit" playing... it was be cause of my financial situation. But now no one that we know plays anymore, so this will be a kick in the pants for both of us. i am 18 too
