Congrats! Welcome

Good read thanks for sharing. Didn't know you were that deep into Azure. Working for Bill and the Evil empire lol. Another IT nerd like myself.

Good to hear. Exercising is my 2nd biggest stress reliever. All positive stuff. Taking care of you and the family should be the number 1 priority.

Glad you are still on the earth. Hoping for a speedy recovery.

Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing. I am right down the road from you in Carlisle Ohio. Quite a few of us in Ohio.

Dave Youngblood was the guy in the suit. He played with the Ironmen for a few years and some other teams. We played the Ironmen in the 92 World Cup. It was my 1st semi serious team the Dyehards. Our bracket was brutal at that tournament. I never got to play Navarone. We were playing local leagues mostly when I 1st started during their era. I played against Direct Hit who were from Ohio and one of the top teams from that same 80s and early 90s era. A few of their guys played with my team at that time (Dyehards) in a league. I got out of tournaments when speedball and hyperball started taking over. I played a few tourneys with it. I just loved woods ball so much more. The balanced fields were okay but nothing was more impressive than watching a good team win from a shitty side of a field. Stealth was basically gone. Watching different teams perform in different terrain. For example watching a Florida teams crawl up a teams ass etc. I could go on and on as well. An awesome adrenaline rush of a sport.

Looks great my guy! Happy for you.

@Streetcleaner Thanks for sharing. I have never played that flavor but it does look fun. Long forgotten Tactics, stealth and accuracy jump out at me. You want to see something comical put a pump, 12 gram gun in the hands of someone who has only used a electronic semi auto gun. The have no clue what accuracy is lol. I will say from the tests I've seen First strike rounds shooting twice as far is a stretch :0 I would like to test them and their accuracy though. I started in the late 80s with a splatmaster and shop goggles. Then to Sheridan, bushmaster, f1-illistrator, automag etc to name a few. I was never a big auto cocker fan. I was usually up front applying pressure so it didn't really compliment my game. @PHUCKITMAN seems like you were in the mix when the Guns of Navarone from Cali were one of the top dogs. My brother was building loaders, silencers out of pvc in that era as well. Around 1990 I started played leagues and tournaments. My last tournament was a nppl 5 man in 97. The last team I was on half were from Ohio the other half from Richmond Indiana. I still have many of the magazines we were in. We were pretty successful. My job was paying little and most of my money went to paint, field and tournament entry fees. I was broke but had some amazing memories and experiences. We picked up a few sponsors the last couple of years that really helped out. Competitive paintball taught me a lot. How to sacrifice and work if you really wanted to be successful at something. Also to respect firearms. You look at how easily you can be shot by a gun that has limited velocity and range. Compare it to guns that can shoot through trees, walls with insane range. It made me respect people in the military that much more. Thanks to both of you for sharing. I want to get my son to the field to play. It may make me get the itch to get back into it at some level. Ohio Xtreme Zapp Amateur open 5 man winners In 95 (can't seem to get away from that Xtreme name lol) I'm in the Armson hat by Bud Orr. Armson became one of our sponsors after that win. None of us used their barrels though lol.

Thanks for sharing.

Maybe you are too good? :0 I had a couple of plunder servers crash on me today. Didn't run into your issue.
