How much paint do you shoot in a day? (data needed for math project)

[Automaggin2]

We are doing a project in Algebra 2 with histograms nad box and whisker charts, and I need to collect some data.

So how much paint do you shoot in a day?

In terms of cases and number of balls.

[Dayspring]

I figure I shoot about a case (2000) and 2(140) pods or so. (Leftovers and/or sponging off other teammates)

At a 5 man tourney, I was told that our back players will shoot 5-7 pods a game. (140rd pods and a HALO w/ Warp.)

2000 rnds...


thats how much i buy. any left overs i shoot at the end of the day as crap rounds

[robert heatwole]

1 case (2000 bullets, heh heh )

PAINTBALLS!!!!!!!!!

-Riot

[FalconGuy016]

Around 1000

[Strider]

In tournament, rec-day or practice?

[NiteWolf1138]

Well, there was about 2500 rounds I used at the last AO Gathering I went to.

[Gunga]

1500 aka 3/4 case

[Evil Bob]

On an average rec day, 1000-1200 rounds.

For tournies, alot of it depends upon how far your team makes it and the format. Playing 10 man it was easy to burn through 3-4 cases a day in prelims, a few more cases in through the finals.

rec ball 2000 balls

tourny 4000 balls

[dmonahan]

Only play tourney. I play back on a 7 man team. In practice I will shot 5-7 cases a day.

In a tourney say the prelims are 8 games I will average 5-8 pods of 140 plus my hopper (180) if he make if further that that the average per game remains the same.

I do my best to keep it down to 2000 (a case). I'm going to start playing way up in front to cut that down some.

[Rynoboy06]

I usually use 1000 pb's.

It would make me nervous to do statistical analysis of this data (IE all the responses) because they (the reponses of the members of AO who choose to respond) are not randomly chosen from either the population of paintballers or AO'ers. Should be fine just to generate data to graph, though. Pardon my insanity, but I've been conditioned by my stats class to despise that which is not random.
