    but the bet was that it was an AVG of 15 over a 5 second period.

    What I shoulve done was use more paint, and shot for a longer period of time to give myself a better chance of doing it. But, I selected 100 balls, and 15 for 5 seconds was 75balls, so I didnt give myself much room for error.

    its all good guys. I will put this to rest. Again, I was bested on this one.

    At least this thread got rid of any tension that was surfacing.

      what you should do is use the raking technique stated above, using the lower hump as well. i do it on my emag, and instead of getting 2 balls per finger cycle, i actually get 4 (i think, possibly its just 3, but its too fast for me to tell :P). anyways, its not as consistant as what you have, but i believe that you could get faster using the bottom hump as well.btw, nice vid, and nice discussion, it was fun reading up about this.
      you know you play this game too much when the neighbors stop fixing their broken windows...

        Oh well, now Im out 6 bucks on paintballs. Thats okay. It will make up for it this weekend at the AO TX meet and greet. I think paint is only 40 a case, and 5 bucks field fees and all day air. Not bad right. .

        Im looking forward to it.

            I took a look at it and in a sample 2 second segment in the middle the BPS varies between 11.2 to 16.6. It is difficult to average it out but in the segment I sampled I would put it at 13.88.

            I'm lucky to shoot 8 bps on my Emag so...

            The info is in now who decides...

              Well aint this GREAT

              Hats off to ya all. I can get the first round.

              rx2..... Well done

              Viper ssc.... good job on the hosting and trying the goldwave out.

              Hitech......Nice Sig.

              yakitori.....Hats off and kudos. Look at what ya learned about file posting. You have shown more class and style in this Thread then I thought ya had. You are on the line of the special few in ROF.[stop pissing off the wife ] You werent bested just a hair slow No more bets with you

              Lohman.....You seen the vid yet?????? and stop changing the bets after I post.

              Bound for glory.......I still got 50 what do we do now.

              So what have we learned???????.

              If it truly was only the special few to hit that ROF my risk is acceptable with multiple hits.
              Whats the risk when everyone can do it. Remember Yak was on semi no ramping.

              Peace Out

                i might give a crack at this tomorrow.

                what exactly do you want to see to check for bounce? some slow pulls-medium speed pulls? you want to see the trigger pulls more than anything else?

                  Beemer and Bound for Glory - I have another idea concerning BPS and bets... that we take the terms of ten second videos, full hopper, no bounce, must see finger movememtns in video and attribtue them to the marker firing, etc., we find someone willing to do goldwave analysis - and we run a contest to see who on AO has the fastest fingers... lets quit this "I can shoot 18BPS" nonsense here, lets have everyone step up and prove it. You each throw in $15, I'll throw in $20 and we'll run it for a month or so - give the winner $50 or so. It will cost each of us because there will be a winner, but it will involve anyone who wants to try it.

                  And yeh, Yak came much closer than I would have ever expected him to...

                    Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.


                    Alright Yak, you're fast, but are you the fastest (new terms btw, check thread)

                      U need a better trigger for my viking, and I think I can get better than what I did in this vid. The Ion is capped at 17 and I got 16.6, so I think that the uncapped WAS board could do a bit better. Im not going to buy a trigger just to try though. wait, I could dremmel down my stock Viking trigger w/ two humps. Hmmmm.

                      Should I do it? Na, Ill let others show what they can do. .

                      I dont have anything to prove anymore. I have other things I need to do. I will be stopping by to see how the contest is going though.

                      I know Im not the fastest though. I can tell you that w/o entering.

                            The "BPS" counter on guns are notoriously "vanity sized" and innaccurate. Besides, we are trying to measure for a sustained (or even averaged) ROF, not a peak ROF.

                              You're going to run into trouble with a general competition. With Yak and this little bet you could trust that he wasn't cheating. If you do a competition open to all then there WILL be cheating.

                                I may, I would like to think that AO is "better" than that... I'll watch for it, and disqualify as I need. I am hoping that AO as a whole is going to prove honorable
