Understaffing. It's usually Bedlam and Armegeddon open then one other field to take a group of open-game players. Typically it's one of the small woods fields. Rarely is there much variety in the day.
I've been going everyother week this summer and I've only seen five fields.

Private Games rule the roost there! Open game players are kind of second class in regards to field choice.

at CPX i hear that you have to ride a little train around to all the fields? is this true? and i heard there a little slow.. like 45 between trains? i've never played there thats why im askin'.

country club sucks. they rip you off on paint and field charge for one field. every other round is a private game and the longest game you will play is 15 minutes. they also charge for air. if i were you, take a trip down to challenge park. i love it, even if i have to wait in line a little bit to play the greatest fields in the state. and they don't only have 3 fields open for open games. they 33 fields, 7 of which are tourny fields and about 12-16 are for private games and weekdays. of the rest, bedlam and armagedon are the only ones open ALL THE TIME. fields like jungle of doom and fort courage or usually only open during the late afternoon. but when you go there, you can't say you spent the whole day playing fields you didn't like. there's always something going out.

Is much good!!
Let us know and we may have to show up and throw paint at you.
It's pretty busy whenever I'm there.

All I can say is beware of the ground in Armageddon!!! You can get some nice injuries there. Other than that the turn out at CPX varies. This last Saturday I stopped by to meet up with my team to play the town. We didn't due to the fact that there was around 300 people there. Like I said it varies depending on the weather. I would meet up with some people to play except that there is a tourney that weekend. Anyway Mag_Man I hope you have fun at whatever field you play at, but if you want a good field to play I recommend CPX.

Hey krafty

It is super dark in CC. You should change to a clear or yellow lense if you play there.
