[Hogan’s Alley] Pump Up The Ridge

[Riot]

Looks like the rain is going to hold off until later afternoon. At which point I hope we’ll all be eating and drinking at the restaurant.
Arrive at 930 and we’ll get games started at 10am. (Ish)

I do believe we have a few people who will need full set ups. (I only have one confirmed with me, but I thought I read others somewhere) If people could bring extra gear, hopefully we can convert some more people to our little niche section of the game.

I believe the parking situation is the same as last time, but you can get everything you need at the field now, instead of the further building. (Did I get that right, ChuckLove?)


Beyond that, I wasn’t really planning on hosting two games this year (and I’m sorry I helped flood this year’s calendar), but a clerical error on my part has led us to more paintball. Haha.
With that said I think we’re just going to have a casual day of pump paintball in CT! I have no theme, no special games planned, just good ol’ fashioned pump ball.

I hope everyone who RSVP’d can make it, I hope everyone on the fence decides to come by, and I hope all of you bailing to go play a scenario game elsewhere stub your toe first thing tomorrow.

see ya in the mosh pit!

[ChuckLove]

Yes parking is the same as last year. The town approved the permits for a new road that lead down to the field but a neighbor complained and got the state involved. Check in and paint is now available in the main staging area. No need to check in at the ski/bike check in any longer.

I got my new meteor someone can run. I will loan it / Sell it for what I payed if it’s going to a local pump player.

[Riot]

Chuck E Ducky - I def want to try it before you sell it. I just snagged the Nova one today.. so not in thr market to buy.

[JeeperCreeper]

Sadly, I'm out. I have to make up for the work I missed due to back pain. Have fun gents, and I'll see yall at Slims.

I might have to send stuff with people heading that way for you as my plans for Slim's are up in the air.

[Riot]

binson - Don’t bail on Slims! I’ll be going though, if you need anything in transport.

[binson]

Riot I wish not to bail on Slims, but I gotta reallocate monies.

[packersrule729]

See you tomorrow 😘

[Riot]

Be still my beating heart!

[NONOBLITUS]

Rain or shine I’ll be there.

[Impactfour]

Welp, I managed to pull a muscle in my left ass cheek today at the end of the world day and will no longer be attending. I hope you guys have lots of fun, it looks like it's going to be an awesome event!

[JeepDVLZ45]

I’m sure you could find someone to rub it out for you!

[Impactfour]

I just laughed so hard my wife woke up from her nap. I'm pretty bummed out so to speak still

[Magageddon]

I'll have an inception pump and a p block sto build for sale or trade as well

should be a fun day tomorrow though

[Riot]

Paintball?

[Chuck E Ducky]

Paintball?!!

[Riot]

Sitting in my truck in the parking lot watching the rain that held out for us until the very last moment.
Most of you are still driving home, but I just wanted to thank every one who came through, especially those who traveled.

I don’t have a final head count yet but it was definitely over 30. I counted 31 players on barrels and a chaotic 20+ on air ball as we #embracedthechaos… the riot way!

I’ll post pictures once I get them. If you happen to be on instagram check out @Pumpapalooza…



My personal feelings are that the pump calendar is too crowded with events now and I don’t want to add to the crowding more than necessary. I do, however, want to host Pistols Only and a CT game… so, I’m going to go back to the drawing board to figure out the best of both worlds without adding to the paintball burnout… but for now…


I’ll see everyone in two weeks at Slim’s and thank you again for an amazing day of balling! Hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did!

[Bangarang]

if it helps, PK keeps a calendar of all the major events we've been going to or try to go to. August had a lot of free weekends this year, so maybe worth considering August for next year?

[Riot]

Bangarang - It’s okay, I got the best PK members! ;p

[NONOBLITUS]

Thanks for putting on another fun day.

[ChuckLove]

Today was a great time! Thanks for putting it together Riot! This was Cassie's first time playing anything other than Stockclass and she absolutely loved it.

[Chuck E Ducky]

Still Rocking and Cocking the open class. You trained her right ❤️

[binson]

This reminds me of what I loved about paintball. Thanks Riot

[packersrule729]

Riot you’re a legend bud, thanks for hosting

[Chuck E Ducky]

Awesome day of paintball we had a great turn out to! Thanks Riot for organizing and Embracing the Chaos! That was a ton of fun! Good Battles, Good Brews, Good Friends. Let’s do that again!

Hopefully we see some of you guys in a few weeks at the next event in Wear NH for some Slims Stock Class action.

[cougar20th]

Great games today. Well worth the travel.

Riot thanks for putting this on.

Everyone else thanks for playing.

[packersrule729]
