    No, you need to go the other way.

    It's better TV to see players get HIT 25 times a second, rather than 15. It's the "bread and circuses" syndrome. People like to see suffering and pain, and watching a guy get hit 20 times is better TV. If I'm wrong, then why does the NFL broadcasts have slow-motion replays of the hard hits, and really get into showing hte people at home "Wow, look at that ankle. I'ts not supposed to bend like that!"

    The Romans had it dialed in. We're just re-discovering it.

      I somehow saw this coming, and I dont know if that came off as rude, or my being a jerk.
      I really can believe this happened. Damnit.

        i think that it would (should) be easy to regulate you equipment, hell EVERY "sport" regulates equipment so that you are playing the player not his gear. the thing is it all trickels down to the rec feilds. last weekend there was a group out at nfinate(my local feild) that played turnys and all they did was dump cases of paint at the rental kids .....WTF ........ i fully support a bps limit and a paint limit .......hay lets start our own series of turnys hell we got enough people here that are well versed on the game and equipment all we need is a good sponcer ......hint hint tom...lol

          So whats the deal with the NPPL and PSP. They're back together, right? I stopped following it after a while. About the same time I got back into Scenario(style) play. Just got fed up with the BS of speedball. Don't get me wrong, I love speedball to death. I love to watch it, but keeping up with all aspects of it just got to be too much. Now is Xball under which organization: NPPL, PSP, or NPPL/PSP. Is it its own completely independent organization?

            Unless I am mistaken, there have been players and or teams DQed for illegal guns at every event this year, except for New Orleans.

            Well bill, im waiting to find out if you have any information on this so called news break, i figured you would have the real facts.


            Spyder, the psp and nppl are 2 different entities. X ball is played at the psp events, and so are all of the NXL events. The NXL is supposed to become a separate entity tho in the future from what i understand

              I think it's pretty hardcore, I mean come on people. So many people whine about CHEATER Boards. Oh well, all they'll do is shoot each other more. I don't see any problem with it, it's not like i am playing in the NXL or anything as many whining people aren't.

                  Too difficult to enforce fairly?

                  They gave Dynasty over half-an-hour to get their guns to not bounce at Millenium, yet they DQed other teams because of bouncy guns. If the gun bounces, the gun is not allowed on the field. They should have them setup before the tourney, they should not be allowed time to fiddle around on the field.

                  I don't think it's hard to enforce. If the gun bounces, no matter what it's not allowed on the field. They shouldn't get a second chance to bring out another gun to see if it will be acceptable.

                  I think they are being pansies. Instead of enforcing the rules, they let it go because they have trouble enforcing it effectively/fairly.

                    I hope the NPPL doesn't decide to do as NXL did. I think that the way they handled the whole ramping issue with the Redz Hurricanes is the way it should be. I don'treally care about bounce or BPS ramping itself but I'm all for more respect for the leagues and the decisions they make.

                      At huntington beach I was shooting a gun that I truthfully could not make bounce, yet the chrono judge was able to get the gun to bounce. I had no way of knowing that the gun could bounce until he shot it. I shouldn't have had a second chance with a different gun?

                        BTW The psp does still care about bounce etc in divisional xball. I had my alias checked for bounce 4+ times in one match because I was shooting it so fast.

                          You should not get another chance.

                          If the gun can be bounced, it should not be allowed onto the field. Nor should the person get another chance.

                          Playing a major tournament with strict rules like that, you should know before-hand it can't be bounced.
