RA Paintball Day

Seeking expressions of Interests and ideas for the division of teams

Some possible splits :

Northern Suburbs vs Southern Suburbs
good vs evil
enchanted crew and groupies vs kryptonite crew and groupies
Crows Supporters vs humans


I reckon teams of 12-20 each gives great few hours of battlin'

And would recommend as venue the new Location at Port Noarlunga, near the Expressway exit on South Road.

And would suggest mid Autumn ??

Keen...

North vs South
Now that's an idea, could work...
But is there enough of us from Down South ???

Im from down south.

That new ones shaping up to look pretty fine, but the arenas look a tad small, although i got spoilt by playing airsoft over in england :D

That's 3 Southies

and Zip Northies

We'd have to draw a dividing line through say Franklin St?

im from south i know a fair few others are too

Norts vs Southers!

south...and im up for paintball any day, and meeting some new people on here

Why not Junglists Vs Hard Dance crew?

If you're gonna segregate, make it personal!

I am from down south and am keen for Paint ball action .........
Come get some !

Im North .. im keen

i used to be north now i'm just on the other side of the city, i'd rather fight for the north rather than for the dirty southern scum cos they have always been my sworn enimies whilst playing sport.

you may live in prospect but you ain't part of the massive!

I think the Techno Resistance should be a third team - our role will be to undermine the other two. I'm In!

yeah, but like techno in adelaide your team would fail miserably

is that why you listen to techno alan? to be cool and fashionable? and here's me thinking you were better than all the other techno elitists out there.

mmmm paintball........... I'm keen and from FNQ so your all southeners to me but I'll fight for whichever team will have me.

Yere paintball im keen im a southern too

I like this north vs south thing

I'd up for sure, love to kill a few nothern scum

Southies!!!! CHAAAARGGGE!!!!

G
Team Captain - RA Southies!

Put me down 4 sure. Skirmish rocks. If you havnt done it b4 you have to come, its like so much fun.

*in star wars evil empire officer voice*: you southern rebel scum!

south baby..

seriously though, are those northern folk really as attractively challenged as the parents and teachers used to tell me when i was a kid? i havent crossed the adelaide equator since 1989, and the therapist fixed it so i cant remember

im south, im keen, i've got mates that will be keen, we are just waiting for someone to organise... bring it on

Definitely keen.

Ok - Well sounds like there's quite a few peeps up for some splatter.

I don't mind doing all the legwork organising it - I've organised a few before - but if someone from RA Admin would like to contact the Paintball centre - perhaps we could get a group discount and perhaps some sponsorship discount - a free ad for them on here or something?

Can someone knock up a poll for preffered date? Using, I guess, saturdays and sundays from September-October ?

Southy, i'm in

like the idea of north versus south, pretty even coverage of people to play


if we can get AM guys in on it, have a team split mid-day and go from north versus south to AM versus RA???????

North / east reprasent.
also - plus 1, have a mate- is a fking sneaky little sniper cnt.. stealth!

This post has been edited by slide on Jul 8 2005, 10:00 AM

hmmmmmm........

can i be on ur team Jimbo... im scared..

yeah i was waiting for you jim, LOL

you, scotty, me, chad, we'll be lethal on the same team whether we shoot people or not, hahahahaha

what about 3 teams...north and south AGAINST MY TEAM!

If there was enough interest we could have 3 teams - 1 rests while the other 2 play. Then have an all-in for the last game.

Anybody work in a Trophy Store?

No Jimbo.. we all know your mates are professional hitmen.. give us a chance!

i'm on the AM side.

also on the prospect side.

will we get flamed for camping cs stlyz

now where do i go i dont live south or north?
can i be a team by myself? (dont ans that g_)

*Marvels at the length of the queue for people wanting to be on the opposite team to G*

i'll been keen to play skirmish - so much fun to be had

just a thought, wouldnt it best to get all those interested and then divide the teams after? just me...

since when does RA do things the easy way?

Main purpose of the thread was to gauge the level of interest and then to get an 'idea' for the division of teams. of course whatver division is ultimately used we will attempt to have equal team sizes. I've never had more than 12 on a team - but IIRC last time the guy said they could cater for teams up to 20. So if we do by chance get more than 40 then we could have 3 teams.

cool, nice work though putting this thread up. keen as mustard to play skirmish

Hey yeah, The Kipo Forest field is sweet. Last time Aces High and me went spent about $800 each. and went through 3 goups of people. went a whole day.

www.paintballsports.com.au

my bad, This is sergendnb. Forgot i was on aces comp

I'm keen to partake in this event. May move North for a day

yeah i went to kaipo forest recently as well, good fields, although 20 on 20 will be a little crowded in some of them i think. i was a bit of an 'itchy trigger finger, so went through about $400 worth of paintballs. if only i didnt watch scarface before i went

so whose actually gonna organise this?
any hands?

Hell Yeah.... Count me in for sure...

Next Question: Where and When.?????

How does october 29th look for everyone?

After the footy season - well after the anthems bowling and anthems

And Saturday because Sunday would be a no go for most ravers

And Starting to get warmer and drier.

I could say the same about a few other....ermm...people

There is a certain paintball venue near second valley somewere... Id Relive the Adventure there thats for sure

hehe. that was my first EF.

QUOTE (mr kris @ Jul 13 2005, 02:03 PM)

hehe. that was my first EF.

Same here...

They also have some Kick arse playing fields..

- the Dam
- Trenches
- and that one like a Corridor, where you can only go up the middle....

well it looking good for Blow hole Creek...

what we also need is a set of decks an sound system somehow hooked up by the playing field(s), so we can get ppl to spin some tunes while north is dominating on the battlefield

And What about a BBQ? If we add say $5 to the the price we could organise some good eatin'

Winning team gets to eat first

BYO Drinks - but no Alcohol til after games are over.

So sorry North no mid-game commiserating.

South will be drunk on their own Power ;P

This COULD mean the place gets closed if no one else runs it. Just thought id let u all know! Im not sure 100% but the other owner (Lawrence) will still be running it.

yeah cool.

as soon as i was told it was him that crashed i thought about this thread

hope it still goes off for ya's ;)

damn was so guna go but I work on weekends! every weekend! so shit! have fun thou guys Iv always wanted to paintball :(

QUOTE (Chucksta @ Aug 1 2005, 10:39 AM)

yeah cool. as soon as i was told it was him that crashed i thought about this thread

least you were thinking bout the right thing? :blink:

only 30 people?

Well we've had 30 votes - but there's been a lot more thread participants than that and I guess some people will want to book for more than 1 person - i will be booking for 5 myself so I guess we can ramp that up to 40. I don't really want to call the centre now for a couple of weeks given the news below, give them time to grieve and sort the place out. Plus we have 3 months yet so still plenty of time if anyone else puts there hand up.

And what do people think if I was to setup a mechanism using my ebay store to take the deposits - giving all those that pay a verifiable receipt, so that everyone knows I'm completely above board and trustworthy?

I'm thinking a deposit of $20 per head will guarantee you a spot.

What would u ahve me do jimbo? I didn't know the guy or anyone that knew him just heard thru the grapevine that it was him.

Sorry for not breaking down and crying Jimbo :blink: but i have enough worries of my own than worrying bout some dude that crashed his car.

All i was doing was informing peeps that it could get closed if anyone else didn't run it, nor did i realise their are 2 owners so it seems all will be fine.

have a nice day Jimbo ;)

OK EVERYONE - SORRY FOR THE DELAY, BUT HERE'S THE DETAILS.

We're booked in for October 29th 11am - 3pm at Adrenalin Paintball Sports.

I need to pay them a $10 deposit per head by Mid September.

The total cost will be betwen $40 - $85.

The $40 will let you play in every 2nd game.

$85 will get you into almost everygame (unless you run out of ammo)

You will be able to purchase more Ammo if necessary.

All Equipment is provided except Gloves. So if you want your hands clean then bring a pair.

There is a BBQ facility, but we have to arange all the food ourselves.

I would prefer if everyone could pay by Direct Deposit - that way we have a record/recipt.

You can pay the balance on the Day.

I will also give half of my bonus paintballs back to the group (the organiser gets a bonus for every 10 people)

If you want to discuss the teams and the BBQ then keep it in the Thread. If you want to book a spot then please PM me for details.

Although I will be at Anthems on Friday Night, I don't think I should be taking cash deposits off of anybody as i won't even recall your faces the next day ;)


Once you pay you can also sign up to your team of choice

the Northern Massive or the Southern Core

First in Best dressed on the teams - that is if you sign up last then you may be allocated to which ever team has less people.

We'll also be having an all on all event without teams for a Player of the Day award.

Have I forgotten anything?

:troop:

BUMP!

(OH BENEVOLENT MODS - CAN I GET A PIN FOR A MONTH?)

go the southern massive!

if anyone is concerned with the high prices of xtra paintballs, you can buy 2000 for $70. Its a good idea if your goin with a group of friends so you can all chip in. A few mates and i did it last time we all went and it worked out sweet, kept us shootin all day :)

can buy paintballs and various other special ops stuff here

http://www.ppba.com.au/

Is this going to happen ? can be arsed looking through the thread .
I am keen to destroy for the Southern massive lets have em !

wikeddd. il pm ya in the next couple days
northern massive will prevail!
