      Me too. Cant wait until i have time to have a job. I cant even work in the summer im so busy.

      EDIT: Oh, I cary 4-5 in rec, but hardly ever HAVE to use more than one + hopper, but when i get a job and i am able of afford the paint, I will carry a lot more and dump, just because it is fun.

        Normally, even in tournaments, I don't carry more than 3 pods. Last 5 man I played in I shot my hopper, and never reloaded. Didn't do to bad either, for a pick up team. I only shoot a hopper, normally. I dig accurate fire, not nessarily volume.

        My brain is just not wired to hose. If I'm REALLY shooting paint, I can actually shoot 4 pods in a single game. But that's if I'm REALLY working hard at it. Mostly, I shoot my guys, I get my job done, and I don't waste a lot of paint doing it.

        Big games, I'll carry 3. At Shatnerball I had 3 on me all times. Not to hose, just because I may be OUT THERE for 3 hours, and I hate running out. That and at Shatnerball, I did a header in Armageddon, and landed on the pod. breaking all the paint in it. Didn't realise that'till I reached for it. Glad it was a clear pod too...

          pods

          In rec I usually carry 2x100rd pods, but rarely empty more than hopper+1. Usually playing with a pump.

          In tourneys or big games 5x100rds.

              I carry 10 in 7-man. I've only shot out the whole pack twice in Huntington and I carry 12-13 for 10-man, i can usually shoot all that.

                      For recball I carry three pods onto the field just incase, but I generally only use a hopper or a hopper and one pod.

                        Front player and 7 pots - I'll leave 3 or 4 full pots at key bunkers on the 40's and 50's for when my back players move up and the psych factor of the whole team carrying between 7 and 13 pots in a 7-man is funny too

                          Ok, here is a question for those of you who carry 6+ (150 round) pods and also use a E-Mag with L10 bolt. What air tank you use to be able to shoot all that paint?

                          I have a E-Mag Micro with L10 bolt and a Dynaflow 68/4500 tank and can normally get about 4-6 pods plus hopper when I have a full tank at 4500.
                          Wherever you go, there I am.

                            Play back, Carry 9 and if I stay alive I will shoot 7-8 in a game that goes close to time (we play 7 man)

                              Well since I only have a 3 pod pack, for 3 man tournies (only kind I've played), I take them all. For rec, I usually use at least a hopper and 1 pod, 2 at most.
