MOD EDIT:
Hi everybody,

After talking with some of the folks going to this thing I've taken the liberty of calling around to find a hotel for us to stay at. I've gotten us a group rate at the Hampton Inn in Leighton, PA (about 10 minutes away). Rate is $109/night for a king size room or two queens (not too bad if you split it with friends). If we get 10 rooms, we'll get the group rate, otherwise it'll be $119/night.

The Hampton is right off major highways, the rooms have high speed internet access, and they offer breakfast as part of the rate. Also they have an indoor pool and whirlpool (pool party Saturday nite, anyone??).

If you are interested in staying there, call 1-610-377-3400 and ask for the "Pest Paintball" group rate. Rooms are already getting filled so if you want to stay there book as soon as you can.

Why don't you set up a mid-America Pest paintball game in Tulsa, OK so the Missourans, Arkansans, Okies and Texans have some shit to do.

that sounds fun. I am bringing my ATV along and plan on riding the next day. I'm going to make a weekend out of it.

[Verbal Kint]

If any NE Ohio Paintballers wanna play, me and my older cats have our own scene. You gotta have your own gear.
NO cash, ('cept what you spend bringing your own paint) eased rules, lossa partyin', No kids under 18.
you just gotta deal with my God-like, Bob Long Mummy...

[sknight]

I don't think I'll be paintballing, if I go, because my gf and I would rather mountain bike out there. JT is phenomenal and difficult. I'd like to meet you guys out there, however.

[Dr. Hoffman]

I very well may come up and play. Are the prices any different if you own your own equipment?

[Dr. Hoffman]

So if AF comes along is she going to play in her O&A boy shorts?

[Glenn Dandy]

question about paintballing? Ive been told if you go all novice guy you get some shitty gun that shoots like 1 paintball an hour and dudes with the rad equiptment just fuck you up all day. truth?

Still sounds fun.. Hey matt lemme know if your in we can go up together, mayby meet up with TJ n his bro.

Glenn, you will be given a marker called the Tippman 98. It is a mechanical paintball marker that most fields use for the sake of the fact they are very easy to maintain. They take a beating, keep shooting and get cleaned out by running under water at the end of the day. For all intense purposes they are considered entry level markers. In our case if we are playing as a private group I'm guessing I will be one of few, if the only who owns my own equipment and who plays on a very regular basis. I give you my word I won't come out and light everybody up, it's just not cool. Paintball is a great sport and the last thing I want is for someone to play once and not play again because I couldn't let up. To answer your question yes there are people out there with experience that will get on the field and let the "newbies" have it. I'm guessing in this case we won't be in this situation. I hope you make the trip, paintball is a ton of fun and I'm really looking forward to meeting all that go.

[funnybonez]

It should be kept at all stock, cause the guns that I used will light the sky up. I don't think it will be fair. Better guns shoot far, straighter, and more rapid. Wait, I kinda like to light the lamp. Just Say'In!

[Elite Pest 420]

i have my own equipment, if i go, i'd rather use my stuff........just saying

[ruckstande]

I just bought a Tippman A-5 back in November and I've shot it just for fun maybe twice because our work game never panned out.

[Mother Shucker]

Can not go as I will be in Vegas that week.

As far as the unfair gun thing, that is a legit concern, but I went for the first time in January, and was able to compete at some level even as a noob with that crap gun, so you should go. If anything, I suggest you go out and bye a facemask before you go. THAT is an unfair advantage. I was unable to see anything early on as it was very humid (and about 65 degrees in January for Christ sake) in the morning and the fog on the face shield was insane. I went and bought the anti fog spray they sold, but it only helped a bit. The old crappy masks are scratched and dirty, this attracts the fog. Go out and get one of these new masks that have a bigger view and have anti fog glass.

[ruckstande]

A cup is a good idea too.

Its not the scratches that make the lens fog, its the fact that they are single pane, non-thermal lenses. If any of you are going to purchase your own mask, which I highly suggest you do only look at masks that use a thermal lens. Basically it is a two pain lens with an air gap in the middle so the temperature of the outside pain cannot effect the inner.

As for the the marker issue, again, it is a valid worry. I will be bringing my marker, the reason for this is simply I use it so much it is very difficult for me to use anything else. Yes, I am experinced at paintball, but I've been shot by a first time player before, using rental equipment. It happens, I'm not ashamed to admit it and I'm sure I'll get shot up quite a bit at this event. To those of you who are still a little worried please don't, the last thing myself, or any of the other players with their own equipment want is for anybody to have a shitty day out on the field and never want to play again.

[J. PETERSON]

if it was a different weekend, i'd be all about it.
Maybe next time :(
Should be a great time though.

Dont forget to post pics!

Its also a good idea to brings some gloves. nothing hurts more than a shot to a bare knuckle except a shot to the balls...just a tip: wear 2 pairs of underwear.

Im Not fearful, I just heard that it can be a drag.

Im with MJ, team newby shall capture all flags and prevail. My dad was a marine sharp shooter.... I can hit a knats ass at 1oo yards with a real gun...not sure bout paint guns, but, Im usualy pretty good at everything:icon_evil My kill count should be high.:rolleyes:

Lets do this.

[Mother Shucker]

Oh, and here is another observation from a one timer, you will be sore as a mother fucker for about three days. We played from 10 till about 3, and every joint in my body ached the next three days.

This is the place I went to, pretty fucking cool fields: High Velocity paintball. (http://www.hivipaintball.com/pages/fields_outdoor.html)

[NoSurviivors]

totally in, as lon as I don't have any races that weekend... I haven't played that much but I'm damn accurate with firearms. And we can drink?? Niice.

fixing my bike up over the next few weeks too..

[NoSurviivors]

where is Jim Thorpe anyway??

I don't think I'll be paintballing, if I go, because my gf and I would rather mountain bike out there. JT is phenomenal and difficult. I'd like to meet you guys out there, however.

JT is awesome for that. It is where I learned to ride. I worked as a mountain bike guide for the people that own Skirmish. I loved working there. It was really nice when I could play for free.

I'll be down there on we or thur that week to bike then I'll be doing the paintball thing with the rest of you guys.

If anyone wants to come down early for some biking, I have all of the trails memorized.

[Buster H]

Just to add into the private vs personal guns thing. I've played against guys that had insane guns. In some of the speedball fields that have a great advantage. In the wooded fields, it's not as bad. You just have to be quick and it wont be a problem

[wackbagette]

Hi everybody,

After talking with some of the folks going to this thing I've taken the liberty of calling around to find a hotel for us to stay at. I've gotten us a group rate at the Hampton Inn in Leighton, PA (about 10 minutes away). Rate is $109/night for a king size room or two queens (not too bad if you split it with friends). If we get 10 rooms, we'll get the group rate, otherwise it'll be $119/night.

The Hampton is right off major highways, the rooms have high speed internet access, and they offer breakfast as part of the rate. Also they have an indoor pool and whirlpool (pool party Saturday nite, anyone??).

If you are interested in staying there, call 1-610-377-3400 and ask for the "Pest Paintball" group rate. Rooms are already getting filled so if you want to stay there book as soon as you can.

I can't wait...trying to convince a friend of mine who recently came home from Iraq to come join the fun :) And hubby and I bought guns and are going to practice. Although if I suck really bad, maybe I'll just play medic :)

P.S. Can the hotel info be stickied as part of the top message in this thread??

That's pretty close. I lived in Lehighton from 1998-2000. Skirmish is about 10 min from the center of Jim Thorpe, so the hotel is about 20 min away. If anyone needs any directions. Hit me up.

I want it to be Stock weapons for all for at least most of the day. But Bring your guns and we'll let you use them toward the end or something. We'll figure something out.

Since you guys are organizing it, that's fine. It just might be a pain in the ass to lug personal guns and the stock ones.

Not sure if you have ever been to Skirmish, but they run busses from the center out to the fields and then we jump from field to field. You wont be able to leave your gun in the car and go get it later.

Very cool... how many rooms did you block?

[wackbagette]

I blocked 10 rooms to start (they only have ten double queen nonsmoking rooms available) but told her that it could be upwards of 20. She said to book as early as possible. Note that they have a decent cancellation policy (6pm day of arrival) so if you're thinking of going, you may want to make the reservation, then release it later if the date doesn't work for you.

Hmmm...I did assume the parking was somewhat close. Maybe we just let the people with their own guns bring them and we just make sure it's balanced when we make up the Teams. Sound Fair?

that sounds pretty good.

Personally, I don't have a problem with it. I've gone up against guys with really good guns and only had a problem on the smaller, speedball type fields

Yeah I hear ya. I have only been Paint Balling once and when we went some guy all by his lonesome wanted to join up with our group. He was all decked out in the elite Paint ball stuff with his fancy new gun and shit. Funny thing was he was the first one in the Death Box every round. Poor lil fella got Pwned by a bunch of Noobs wearing field supplied Mechanic Jumpsuits with names like "Tyrone" and "Junior" embroidered on them. It was funny.

Hey guys, I've booked a room for people coming up from our area but its not looking good for anyone but me coming up for the game. If that's the case and I'm the only one would anyone be willing to let me go in on a room with them. Obviousley I'm not looking at getting in with any of the couples coming but I'd rather not have a hotel room to myself for the weekend. If nobody can, no biggie I can do a room for just me, if someone can though I'd appreciate it. Still working on putting a DC group together though.

Of course leave this question up to me... as far as beer goes up there are their standard liquor stores? or would it be smart to Bring it up... I know I went out to PA once to bungie jump and they didnt have liquor stores. kinda sucked.

[Glenn Dandy]

Veal Shenk, and German potato sald.

[Dr. Hoffman]

Glenn, PA is kinda weird on their alcohol standards.

For beer you can only buy it in bars (6 and 12 packs) and beer distributors (6, 12, cases, kegs). All other alcohol is sold in liquor stores. No alcohol is sold in grocery stores.

I'm transferring to a new location (same job) on April 1st. I can't really walk through the doors asking for days off to get drunk with my new friends....Or can I? Hell, I never got anything without asking for it. I hope I can make it.

[PALLY]

And Glenn Dandy will be there also. He wasnt sure if he was going but I made up his mind for him. :action-sm

[magnus420]

[Dr. Hoffman]

Hey everyone. I'm calling in tonight for a room. For those of you who will be heading up alone that don't want to get your own room PM me and I'll add you to the list. The more the merrier (well, to a point) and more importantly the cheaper for all involved.

I moved last week and some of the movers said they may want to play...I gave them my info so we may have some more people. They're O&A fans but aren't on any of the boards (yet...but I sent them to the 'Bag of course!)

I'm so excited...I have a group of six (including a friend who was an MP in Iraq) and they should've registered by now, I gotta get on them.

This is going to be a kick-ass weekend!

way to bring your own cock to a sausage fest.

[Glenn Dandy]

Me and Ruckstande are wanting to go.. be patient with us, we are mildly retarded..

Putting money in an envelope or calling a hotel are like rocket science to me... but im in.

[Dr. Hoffman]

Does anybody else think that MJ should have to play the entire day of paintball in nothing but those boy shorts he's wearing in his sig? That might be hot.




No Homo.

God damnit!

You say that now that I can't come.

[Mindriot]

For those of you that are coming and have not have signed up yet, please sign up HERE (http://www.pestgaming.com/forum/index.php?page=124) and send the down payment so you can get in on the Group Discount. Otherwise just show up on May 19th and join the fun!

[OpieNuggets]

I've been dying to play paintball for a long time. But the same weekend as the Opie and Anthony Texas Hold'em Tournament (http://923freefm.com/pages/354395.php)? Why do you do this to me?

[wackbagette]

It double sucks for us, we are going to have to bail on PP this year. We're not going to the Hold 'em tourney either...we're being killed by some issues in our new house, and we're going to have to renovate the laundry area to address water problems we've had since we moved here a month ago. That weekend's all we got to get it done, so we're sitting out both events. It blows, I'm not happy...all I can say is fuck. Next time we're in though...I didn't buy gear and practice for nuttin' :)

[Buster H]

I will not be making it either, between vacation and business trips, I have only been home for 48 hours since March 5th. I'll be getting back home on the 18th. That weekend will be spent getting my life back in order

[Glenn Dandy]

ughooo? whats going on can i get an idea if this suckers still a go?

[Buster H]

it's still happening.

[Elite Pest 420]

So, umm....who here is prepared for battle? I sure as hell cant wait. I hope you guys started practicing early :)

[J. PETERSON]

im definitely in for next outing...
I've been itchin to play too

[Dr. Hoffman]

We'll have to plan another one for the summer to make up for this. I was really looking forward to meeting everyone.

[NoFilterPaul]

Shame about the date clash

[patbattlefield]

Shame about the date clash

we thought by planning way ahead we would avoid this. oh, well.

[tattered]

im still going

[wackbagette]

I called to cancel my reservation at the Hampton and they lost it. If you made reservations there and you ARE going, you may want to reconfirm. There's only one Pest Paintball reservation made so far and that's BB. So you may want to check.

I feel really bad about this and really wish I were going...sign us up again for anything over the summer. Just check the Virus Tour dates ;)

[tattered]

paintball still on for this weekend as long as the weather is nice...

[WaddleDoodle]

Just a reminder that the Paintball is still going. And, not to make light of the Poker tourney cancellation, but now people have a free weekend for paintball, if they still want it.

[patbattlefield]

due to all the shit that has happened in the past week in combination date conflicts and the fact its supposed to rain all day Sat. we are going to reschedule.

IF YOU SENT MINDRIOT A RESERVATION FEE JUST PM HIM FOR A REFUND. WE WILL RESCHEDULE FOR ANOTHER TIME WHEN THE WHOLE XM THING CLEARS UP.

[J. PETERSON]

Any plans on doing this this summer?
I'm game

[Dr. Hoffman]

I sent a PM to Glenn Dandy awhile back about trying this again this year. Since we're in the summer and with PNC coming up in August I was thinking of holding off until September. If we can get plenty of interest I can attempt to put this together. Let me know if there is any interest in this, either here or through PM kids.

[J. PETERSON]

Of course, date pending, I'd be down and could probably bring a few.

[LiL JJ]

I'm down!

Ok, well I'll start looking up some places. I think I'm going to rule out Skirmish as there is absolutely no way I'm paying $100 for a case of paint and I don't think anybody else should either. I'll wait a little bit into the summer and then start a new thread, keep your eyes open everybody.

[Perch1019]

I have no idea where everyone whos in this lives but Ive been playing alot at a place in Patterson NY. Its just north of Westchester. Liberty Paintball. They have a ton of fields and if you show up with more then 20, you get your own group.
Last time I played, it was 20$ to get on and 70$ for paint with free air all day long.

[Glenn Dandy]

OOF! old ass thread..... considering the Softball day seems to be a great success ... Mayby in Sept Oct? we could take a shot at this... Should be easier then it was putting together the Softball.

I might first ask this.... if interested? where do you live?

A good start might be to find a central local.

I'm in Souf /jersey.

How about a poll.
upstate NY
NYC
LI
South jers
Norf jers
Philly
Northeast PA
Delaware


Lets see who is interested ... if it looks good Mayby we can start a fresh 2008 thread on it.

[Ballbuster1]

I'm too busy this year. Between the softball game, the Virus show, Nascar races and family
commitments I'm kinda tapped out on weekends.
