xball paint useage

[simm33]

For those of you who have played an xball game. How much paint did your team shoot for the entire game? Thx.

[Creative Mayhem]

When I played Xball at the Tex-Ball AO meet earlier this year, I think I used 2 cases over the 2 days. Im not sure howmany games we actually played, but it was a lot of smaller short games for each half. I dont think I used as much as others, but it sure was fun none the less

Used 2 1/2 in the same x-ball "tourney" as Creative. I figure that in a "regular" x-ball tourney they use quite a bit more per person.

xball is usally 2+ Cases
Very painty

[TheTramp]

I go through 2 cases in the pre-lims at the local 5-man tournaments and I'm probably on the low side for a back player.

I'm sure the pro Xball guys go through a lot more than that.

[trains are bad]

wait, that's not for the whole team right? Don't you guys pool paint?

[adt501]

when lasoya played xball, he went through 8 pods a round

think about how many rounds you play in a full game

too much for my bank

[TheTramp]

We do but we work out how much we'll each use, buy all those cases, then slpit the total price evenly.

Exactly, I generaly go through 5-6 pluss hopper per game and that's not a lot compared to the pro's. They probably go through at least 15 cases (not each) or more.

[Sac]

you actually shoot less per "game" but you can play upwards of 20-25 games per match, so its alot of paint.

[simm33]

figured it would be a lot of paint. was hoping someone had played an offical xball game and could give ruff estimate for a whole team for the whole game.

side note I dont think anyone averages 8 pods a game in xball do they?

[Sac]

if im playing front i average about a hopper and 1-2 pods playing back its a hopper and 4.

so rough estimate here say you have an average of 5 guys shooitng 3 pods and a hopper per game and you run 20 games in a match

i got about 6.2 cases per guy for a match... that sounds too high tho.

The team I played with at chicago open shot 50 cases in 4 xball matches.

tx-ball,

I bought two and only used one for two days of play. Really depends on postion. Our average game time was about 2 mins.

[the123]

a local Div 3 x-ball team used up an average 10 cases per match at the PSP World Cup 04

[simm33]

so 10-13 cases per match.
thanks guys.
