What level do you consider yourself- pro,novice,etc.

[Mega Man]

I consider myself amatuer. Our team is fairly good. We dont have a name or all look alike or even look that proffesional but we play pretty good. We've played in 2 novice topurnemnets and 2 amautuer, we placed 3rd in novice and 1rst the second time, in amauter we placed 5th and 3rd, all the tournemnts had about 15 teams entering in.

[Miscue]

I'd put myself in the Incompetent category. "Most likely to shoot himself" award... I got one of those...

[DarkPhoenix]

I find myself somewhere between an amateur and a novice.

[Shaft]

Miscue beat me to it.
I'm terrible. I was playing back when constant air was some ultra exotic unfair advantage. Tom's Automag was a rumor spoken of in hush tones and promised to be out of my budget (I was wishing I could've afforded a Rapide back then).
Amd now to make up for my inability to play - I buy all that gear I couldn't have then. Ha Ha!! The Field will be mine! Oh yes, the field will be mine!!!

[Miscue]

But hey, the point of this game is to have fun. Given, it's not so fun if you're in the dead box more often than not... but if you still got paint there's always next game.

[Major Ho]

Miscue, Ill have a few trophies or plaques made up for us. Ill be the second most incompetent! Chea....buddy!

I have more fun looking pretty on the field that worrying about coming in first Someones gotta agree with me on this...

[DJTmRave3]

All of Team Rave would be considered am. Since we have won tourneys in the am division, we must stay there. I can still qualify for the WPF Nov. division though. But if we played it as Rave, we could be disqualified.

[PsychoMag]

I have 11 years of rec/tourney play. I think I can hang with the big boys in Am A. I think I am right between Am B and A.

[SIGSays]

yeah, between a novice and amatuer..........

but yeah, i shot myself in the foot a few times

[krafty]

Old.
Slow.
Are those catagories?

[Temo Vryce]

I guess I would have to rank myself as being only as good as the team I play with. Paintball isn't a single player sport, it's a team effort. So if my team sucks so do I. If my team does really well so do I. But if I were to rank myself I would say in between novice and rookie.

[StevoC]

Well...

Definately not pro...
Doubt I'm a novice...
Possibly an amatuer...
Not a newbie....

Hmm.....I guess I'm somewhere in Miscue's group.

[Nitroduck]

I am novice.....I've played amature tourneys (even though I dont think it was truely amature).

You need to remember, just because your novice or amature doesn't mean your good/bad.....I've seen teams that play novice at some tourneys go play amature events and do very well. Likewise, I've seen novice and amature teams play rookie and get killed....."Rookie" in one place might mean a team consisting of 13 year olds using spyders/tippmanns....In another place, you might have 20 year olds with sponsorships using Emags, Angels and high end cockers. I've seen it both ways......

But having said that. I am novice to my knowledge.

A few places classify levels as such

Rookie - no tourney experiance
Novice - 1 year tournament experiance
Amature - 2 year tournament experiance

Another one classifies you as amature if you've won or placed in a tournament that if you won, you were given $250 in cash per person..
