Have you ever made your team nervous?

[REDRT]

Well, being a backman for the team I sometimes have shoot pretty near the guys in front of me. I as many back players know zipping paint just past your front/mid guys heads is necessary sometimes. Well a couple of the guys commented they got nervous. I do come close, but I pride myself never hitting one of my guys yet. Kind of funny for me. Any back players ever get that from the team? I guess we should work harder on the trust issue.

just this weekend i almost put one in a front guys back, the damn house they had for the snake was too tall from the back standup, but it was a poorly layed out field, so not my fault. just tell em to stay in, or tell em to snap out low for a min while you send yor stream. you are a communicator. so do it

I have been shot out by one of my teamates like that, all it takes is a little drop off or a chop.

tell them they should get over it. its pretty common to zip a line of paint over peoples heads, although at the inception, you probably want to establish a firing lane not so close to your guys. But sometimes you have to, just make sure they listen for/to you.

I try to stay away from playing back. But this one time I was trying to get someone and I got scared of hitting one of my teammates. But I did it anyway and hoped that it didnt hit him. In fact. It was at an AO Day and the guy in front of me was . Carbon ^^^^ up there. (can't miss him with all his bandanas)

Point is, sometimes you just have to do it I guess.

i like to hear paint flying past me if it sgoing the righ direction, i trust a few guys to do it right and to have my *** while i move or even when in a hole. That not a good comment for someone to make i'd rather worry about my back shooting me then have him not want to shoot but i like back men who shoot alot

I was playing at an indoor place with a bunch of people I didnt know, and one of my teammates was trying to move to a bunker in front of me from my left...well the other team had a guy trying to move on him. so I was putting some suppressive fire on the other team and had a ball or two go through my teammates hair.. or pretty darn close. didnt eliminate him, but he didnt look to happy when he turned around and stared at me.

Just try not to do it if it isn't absolutely necessary (sp) And tell them the circumstance and why you were doing it if they try and talk to you about it.

[peewee]

Once in a while. I tell em it aint my paint you should be worrying about.

i used to scare the daylights out of my front guys. since i used to play left tape back. at first they used to freeze cause they thought i was going light them up. well after a few times and pratices, i just told them just whatever you do don't come over the top unless u plan something with me first. my fifty guys could wrap arround all day if they wanted to. and it works too. hell a couple of times i took out their own fifty mirrors before they realized they were there. aahhh. the good old tourny days

thing of the past for me anyways.

I one time found it necessary to crawl the snake to take there fifty guy out. My backplayer kept him in with a steady stream of fire, which I crawled under... this was going from behind me over my back and head as I crawled, interesting crawl, I can say I hurried

The stuff that happends in the stage area makes me more nervous than on the field.
Take a look at the team I play with.

On my way to tournament yesterday my pistol was getting annoying in my back. so I asked my teammate riding with me to open the glove box so I could toss it in there, I just didn't tell him why... I got some odd looks when I pulled my .45 and holster and tossed it in there

Shooting at Carbon is always acceptable, own team or not.

And p8ntball72 plays with some interesting individuals. :)

We shoot next to each other all the time. I'm not afraid to shoot right next to a front player, and I'm not afraid of paint coming from my back guys, rather, comforted.
