If you have Kazaa, I have found something to download that tells you how to make a paintball cannon, barrel plug, paintball grenades, no-fog spray, paintball gun silencer, smoke bombs, great squeegee, mask fan, and more. If you are interested and you have Kazaa or something of its nature (thing to download music, images, videos, documents, etc.), go under the documents section and type in- Instructions to Build Cannon. Trust me this stuff works!!:evilgrin:

what in the hell is wrong with rec ballers? you tourney players need 3 refs on each of you so you dont cheat. how do ya like that stereo type. i happen to play rec ball and tourneys and i prefer rec ball any day. its more about the reality of the sport {having fun} in case you have forgoten. its should be about the same thing. having fun with your friends.

It is about having fun. There are two sides of the street, and both sides like to point fingers at the other side. Heck, that is human behavior. The point about the cheating...well...tourney cheating involves placement and prizes. Recball cheating just means you don't have to walk out of the woods and then all the way back in. I personally lit up a "squad" of 5 players in an open recball game, saw the paint break and none of them showed at the reincarnation point(I was elimated just after). Cheating happens at all levels. I thing the "finger pointing"(rec-tourney-rec-tourney) on this site is just friendly ribbing, don't you?

If you want to know how to make some nice things like that there are a bunch of Scenario teams that have websites dedicated to crap like that.

Now as for finger pointing, holy cow, the Scenario vs Tournament finger pointing is ridiculous. The sad part about it all is that Recreational paintball is the largets majority of companies customers. The rec player and the newbie buy a ton more equipment than the Tournament player does. Why? Well because the tournament players either already have all they need, and they play in short bursts etc, or they have a sponsor giving it to them. The rec/scenario players buy a lot more equipment because their games last longer, they don't always have the super duper high end stuff, and they aren't getting a lot of free stuff. However you should also see the difference between the ending of a Scenario game where prizes are drawn from a bowl and you're entered just by paying your registration fee, and the ending of a tournament where prizes are given based on performance. When their's money on the line it always brings out the worst in people. I'll even admit that there has been times where in the Pre-lims I might not bitch so much about a call, but come Finals you can be damn sure I will be upset about a bad call. Why? Because at that point there is something on the line, and I want it called right, not because you're reffing your buddies :pisss:

Tommy.....trust me I have my opinions on this one, and they aren't gentle. It's one thing to know you shot someone and they didn't come out. I can live with that a little bit, you get upset but you say the heck with it, and attempt to shoot them again. However when said player blatantly wipes the hit, and the you bunker said player a minute later and the ref wipes the hit for him and lets him keep playing. Sad part is that various spectators on the sidelines all saw it. On top of that it was also their home field. The worst part is that this ruined our Amatuer debut, we finished 6th, had we won that game we woulda finished 4th which meant we would've taken home prizes (jersies I believe, but damn it prizes are prizes).

I hear you. Our sport should be built on honor and character, but that is not always the case. These that dishonor the game will probably cheat on taxes, wives, and anything else that matters in order to just "get by". Surely, the level of frustration during a high profile tourney is greater when these sh@#heads show up and start wiping. Some pro recently got slammed for overshooting...I'm not defending his actions. But, it does make you want to put enough paint on someone (when possible) to make it hard to cheat. Cheating sucks, plain and simple. I probably should have said "preach on" rather and flame on...cuz i feel the same way about it. A ref, of all people..."hangin is too good for that varmit"
