I’m in for pump tomorrow

[Magageddon]

I think I'll play the pump day tomorrow, but not the main event on Sunday. Once was enough for me last year

And so it begins.

what size was the paint today? trying to decide if I need to do a last minute freak mod on my p68sc...

[BretG]

We had to use different paint from the event paint.

Had a blast! Let's run it back...we left early cause of other obligations, but if you guys have anymore pump events keep me in the loop! I'm sure I can drag 5-7 more guys out

[spydrmn]

Another awesome time. Thanks again everyone! IMG_20240505_153848206_HDR.jpg

Another fun day. And the weather held out just enough. Now for the ensuing moaning, groaning and achy joints.

[netsurferdude2]

Did you guys drown or was it a relatively dry event?

[BretG]

Just some drizzle from rain, and a downpour from ouchy paint.

One of the best games of the day

[Magageddon]

That was a fun game, I've been "bayoneted" enough playing 10 man that it rubbed off on me a little

What a great weekend! I miss y’all already. But that hard ass paint and too much running have insured I will remember our time together for days to come.

[minionPB]

At one point, I literally had a shot bounce off my mask...

[chplnstone]

fun was had, glad the weather was (mostly) cooperative. not so much a fan of the 2 team/two game layout (hopefully they implement a scale up prereg next year to keep things balanced). glad to see everybody

The pump games on Saturday were worth the whole weekend. The main castle game on Sunday was strange with the 2 team format, but it was just as a crazy paint hurricane as ever. I had the most fun inside defending the castle. When outside, you can't see in very well, you just spray the windows. Inside I could see most of the players I was shooting at and I got a lot of them too.
Running for the flags was basically an exercise in suicide. Chappy put enormous effort into the flags and late in our attacks, he was just walking and shooting without even trying to hide.
Overall the event was a positive experience with lots of action. I shot a full case of paint with my VM98, and that was a lot for me. The best part of the event was being there with Elizabeth and all of you guys. As Chappy said, I miss you all already.
The worst was the....well, I'm still paying for the meatloaf.
