I need some help for my 1st tourney

[AGDmagman2001]

I've got my 1st tourney coming up. I've got some questions for the tourney experienced out there. It's a 3-man tourney, my team is playing in the rookie division but the prelims are going to be a mix between Rookie, Novice, Amt. We are guarantied 5 games minimum and from what the guy we talked to sad there will be 10-15 rookie teams. We're not quit sure how much paint to get. We were going to get six cases but someone told us that that was way to much. So I think were going to get 4 or 5. The three guns that we'll be using are, two automags and a bushmaster. My gun and my brother's(bushmaster) both have lapco bigshots, and our other teammate has a medium bore SP teardrop. The poll is between the paint that we've considered getting. Also any tips for playing would be appreciated.

Sorry to take so long.

Is it a BYOP (bring your own paint) Tourney, or do you have to buy from them?

I know many Tourneys use their own paint for Insurance Reasons. If that is the case (no pun intended), asking what kind of paint you should get would be pretty much a non-issue. And if that is the case, you might want to ask them what brand they are selling so that you can get a good paint to barrel match.

Again, I don't know how they are doing it... just offering advice.

It's BYOP

[shartley]

Okay...

I voted then!

On another note...... there is NEVER too much paint! Mwahh hahhh hahhh!!!!! If you can afford it, store any extra, etc., what is the big problem with having more than you may need? It would give you a good excuse to use it up later!

Don't be afraid to get hit or anything.If only I would have remembered this on our first tourney.....:o btw we played against 10 and 11 year olds with angels.

[AGDmagman2001]

We get one case with entry fee. So do you think we should get four cases of something like marbs or 5 cases of 32 team colors.

uh oh

hmm...i was planning to play in that tourney too(wildfire?) should i have already signed up?? Hmm..i'll call them tommorow,
whats your team name?

[AGDmagman2001]

We're playing at the wildfire too. Are team name is Vengeance. Maybe we could meet each other someplace. Is your team playing rookie. We haven't signed up yet either.

[xmetal2001]

I'll probably be signing up tommorow. Have you ever played at Wildfire? Played the 3man in August? Our name is Team Tantrum. I actually think we might be entering 2 teams. Anyway, i seriously dought you'll need 6 casess for 3 people, thats 4000 balls per person! The paint they use is Red TOP-BRASS with pink fill, its cheap, so don't buy any more paint from them other than what you get.

[mac2k4]

i say go with the JT, cause i think its the thinnest shelled paint, so you'll break on'em, if they break in your gun, oh well, it'll prolly happen a lot in yalls mags(being lil' rougher on thinner shell paint. If your having lots a breaks move up on bore sizes,

[DYE-BaLLeR]

is this tourney at wildfire paintball ? cuz i kno you live in GA and im going to a 3man dec.1st their

[Deadpool3]

Are you'll talkin about wildfire's indoor field off highway 78?

[Cliffio]

well i like all star out of those choices BUT its a small bore, but if u have a barrel to shoot it, its super bright and has the brittle shell, i dunno how brittle shells shoot out of mags......
anyways thats my vote

[AGDmagman2001]

Never played at Wildfire before. And the tourney was move to Dec. 8. The sight hasn't been updated, the guy said his computer crashed that's why the date hasn't been updated and the forms aren't up, but the entry and all are the same as the 3-man from Sept. It's on the outdoor fields.
