:D why oh why does Damage have to ref:hammer: i was looking forward to smashing you guys JJJ:armed: :D

If there was say 6 teams only entered(for sure there will be more) what would happen with games? Would each team play all other teams twice or something? Or if it was 14 teams would it just be randomly selected who plays who?

My hit list...
Nightshade
NightShade
Nightshade
Welt.........
:D

[JJJ]

I dont have time to work that riddle out for you Frodo Dead_Eye.

"looking forward to smashing you guys JJJ", hmmm. Whats our head to head count so far in the 3 games we have played. Let me think, is it DAMAGE 3 Bruised Egos 0:D

But I like your other hit list. They are games where you will be allowed to stay in the game. All others I will be dragging you and your dusty blue vibrator out early.:)

[blacky]

Is BB coming over for Nightshade!!!
this should be fun,
id watch out for markus Deadeye not only is he a deamon with his angel he is also a good 3 feet taller than you are!!

[blacky]

in regards to who plays who, we always try and let every team play 8 games, if you have to play another team twice its determined on a random basis

[blacky]

heres one for you J,

[Deadeye]

3-0:( but in our two Speedball games weve had you at 2 vs 1, and a 3 vs 1. We just couldn't close the deal because I wasn't there:D :angel:

Blacky does Nightshade have any Angel Speeds yet?

Yes we do like making it tough on ourselves when we play you guys...but in the end our true class (or is it arse) shows through...:D :D :D

:D thats just 3 more feet of him to shoot:p

[blacky]

nah no speeds just yet, they are nice though, personnally I'm impressed with the new cockers but I think Nightshade will wait till the Ir4 is released if their are to be any upgrades

[Deadeye]

the ir4 is out in the states, but its the a4 and is really no better than a Speed. Just one with an LCD, and a lot more$.

[Deadeye]

whats going to be happening with the flags, will they be placed at either end again or in the middle?

Also if its a big field do we have to start facing the oppositie way again?

[blacky]

most likely their will be a flag at each end, most likely the teams will start facing away unless we can erect a "dead box" that the players cant shoot from behind

[Deadeye]

what if you just got all players to hold their markers facing the other way? I just hating spinning around at the start, curse u disorientation.

Should have entry form off by end of next week with a bit of luck. Still head hunting players as we are short one.

[Deadeye]

i dont think J like the idea of straight anything (including men:p )

[Deadeye]

just a quiery about round 4, when is it likely to be? Plz dont say early November or late october:( me have year 12 exams.

Thanks bottle-stain boy! Them hoppers are nearly bigger than me these days!:D

[blacky]

those evolutions are bloody impressive though, but a bitch to load

[Deadeye]

is there going to be a Division 2 team reffing as well?

[blacky]

not at this stage, the Damage boys are confident in their abilities, as am I, and since we will probably be only using the 1 field it wont be an issue.

[JJJ]

Whats this word ability?

And yes dead_eye, no hiding on another field to get away from the vengeful mouse.:D

[bunkerboy]

Or hiding in the scrub alongside of the field sniping with a Matrix at Team Enigma. Leave the black ninja suit at home Dead eye!:D

[Deadeye]

anyone know of a reasonable motel in Strath?

[JJJ]

Dead_Eye, stay in Handorf which has plenty of places as the field is half way between there and Strath. PM me if you want me to forward some phone numbers to you of hotels.

Nice to hear the PIGS are back.:D

[Deadeye]

[blacky]

Diablo pigs, now known as SEVERE

[bunkerboy]

Last I heard there are roughly 16 teams entered! If so, thats a s#@t-load of teams. Lets hope this 'unsubstantiated' (big word for a pb player, sorry) rumor is true. Let our beloved sport grow!:)

A big reffing task as well!:D

[blacky]

I wish J and his band of merry men all the best for the upcoming tournament and ask that all teams show a bit of consideration as they will be pushing nearly 100 players through over 80 games in the space of one day,
a big ask of the small mouse:respekt:

[blacky]

Confirmed teams!

Division 1

Severe
Kaoz
Welt
Nightshade
Total Eclipse

Division 2

Deadly Sins

[JJJ]

[Deadeye]

ill try to easy om you when you run into the field to check someone J, maybe Ill only put 4 into you rather than 30 seeing your going to be reffing so many teams.
Looking forward to LOTS of good games. Im brining 3 cases am Im going to be using them all:D

[JJJ]

Shooting from the deadzone dead_eye will incur you a penalty!

[Shane]

Dang,who are Sudden Impact?
Great name,glad I thought of it but didnt get to use it.
Go ahead,make my lunch.lol
Cheers
Shane.

[bunkerboy]

We (Team Enigma, formerly known as Rogue Runners), practiced against this team 'bout 2 weeks back. They have only played charity games up at Tarlee, but are not to be taken too lightly.
Can't wait!:D

[JJJ]

agree, they are not to be taken lightly.

[Shane]

Hey guys,
Well i would never take this team or any other for that matter lightly.
I like most players have been on the end of a drubbing from a team u thought u could beat.
No, the reason I asked about S.I. was that I always wanted to call a team by this name being an old Dirty Harry fan and one of my fave movies.{he gets his new Automag in this one}.I wish these guys and all teams the best of luck and look forward to jumping in with Barrel Jam for this one[I'll be the guy hosing from the back.hehe]
Cheers
Shane.

[Deadeye]

awww, cant we just play 13 games each:D
with BB luck we will end up playing all Div 1 teams twice somehow, and Damage:p

Very happy to see so many teams entered. I look forward to some pay back to Wicked Clowns, Nightshade, Ballistic, Enigma, Eclipse, dammit everyone everyone seems to beat us:mad:

[Deadeye]

3 cases of Chronic at my house, waiting to be shot...oh yes it is going to rain. Bring your paintball umbrellas fellas:p

[I.R.Three]

I would have to say that that is a pretty good turn out for a SAPPA tourny. Well done to all that commited. Things are starting to look healthy team wise.
There are also a couple of other teams that didnt enter..
What has happened to Ice Coffee?? CDU???

[Deadeye]

the player base in Vic is getting stronger again. We have been getting around 25-30 now at club days. Im going to try and get some players to put some more teams together to travel over to all Sappa rounds. There are a lot of eager players.
Hopefully next season we can reach 20 teams:) There will deffinetly be more than 1 Vic team next season I know that for sure.

[blacky]

Iced coffee has officially dibanded

Yes, bring back the Pack, Lizards and Blackwood Hunters!:p

[Deadeye]

I would if I was old enough to know who they all are:p shame about Iced Coffee spliting. Hopefully one of the Vic teams will play div 1 and give you a run for your money JJJ:D

[I.R.Three]

What is Gordon, Jackie and Shane doing now? Playing for anyone else?

[JJJ]

Given it like 90 games we have to ref I think all I will be doing after the game is sleeping unless I have to go to work.

You will have to wait to round 4 to be beaten again dead_eye!:p

[blacky]

Gordon is plying on deadly sins, Shane is playing on Barrel Jam, Darryl is retiring and I'm not sure about micheal

[Vladimir]

JJJ
The only guys I know that still play from those teams Nick (aka Seedy)- Red Lizards/Looney Tunes/Creed, Troy- Red Lizards/KMA/Rat Pack/Jetts, Dany- Hunters/KMA/Jetts and I think me- Red Lizards/Looney Tunes/X Rated/ Jetts/Bruze Bro.

And I'm sure there are some others some where??

Vladimir.

[JJJ]

:D

Only 2 more days until Round 3.

Should rock:)

[CDG]

Unfortunately I won't be able to be there but I hope all goes well and that none of the Damage Refs get stitched up to badly....:p

Play Hard and Fair and have a great day...
Cheers
Chris

[JJJ]

Yes, CDG has an end of season chess club function on:eek:

[CDG]

[Deadeye]

leaving early tomorrow morning:hammer: but will be in SA tomorrow Arvo all ready to go:D what time will the field be blown up? is the field Scott Stokes one again, just on a bigger surface? or is it a different field as well?

[JJJ]

Different field.

We will be getting there at 6.30ish to blow the field up.

It is a combination of air pipes, like those seen in round 1 appl and some stand alones.:D

thanks for organising a great event Blacky, had a blast, except my Speed didn't literally:(

Plz dont make the 4th round until at least the 16th(think its a Sunday)of Nov. though because me wants to play all 4 rounds:(
and my year 12 exams finish n the 13th:mad: ahh cant miss a tourny would have to slash wrists.

Thanks to Damage for reffing, they did an excellent job, and were good at catching fly away obstacles:D

[CDG]

Sorry I couldn't be there...sounds like it was a good but windy day...:)

What happened to your Speed Deadeye, you have been talking it up for Months....?

[JJJ]

Looks like your team Dead_Eye will have to consider stepping up a division next year!:D

I was surprised with all the results as from on the fiedl it looked like every team was in the hunt. Especially Air Strike in div 2 were up there prior to the lunch break.

:D

[blacky]

next tourney most likely November 30th, this is due to limitations with the field owners schedule
If all goes to plan it will be held at Elite paintball about 15-20mins away from Adelaide CBD, once again held on the supair, lets try and break our attendance record for this year!

thanks to team damage for the great job they did reffinng though I'm sure the lads will never want to see another tent peg or hammer for a very long time:hammer:

[Deadeye]

CDG, the Speed went belly up in the second round. I think something electrical fried or possibly there is an internal air block somewhere although I cant locate it. Everything works like the Led board etc just will not shoot air:mad:

I had to go back to a Spyder and then that went down on my so I missed the 4th round and we lost:mad: otherwise we actually could have finished 2nd overall:p
Maybe a step up will be in order for next season although that would be the end of trophies, but I would like to se more teams in div 1 an dont wan to too BB sandbag.

Have been speaking to players at the peninsula paintball club and hopefully there will be a second team at round 4, and hopefully 3 vic teams in for the whol series next year, 1 div 1 teams, and two div 2.

Glad to hear about the dates Blacky:D

You are right there.

On an interesting note, in the health Department we are testing these pedomiters which measure how many steps you take in a day. The average office worker should do 7000 a day (which is not an easy task). However, just reffing on Sunday I clocked up 23,000!:)

Looking forward to the next round

[Deadeye]

23000 nice, but thats in mouse steps so its only kilometer:p
But seriously was a very good job reffing, especially under the conditions and with so may teams.

Mate sorry to hear the new toy went down...:( Is this where I mention that you should have bought a Cocker...:D :D :D

Good to hear you guys are thinking of coming upto Div 1. Hopefully next year there will be enough teams to keep the Div's separate... I think it helps keep the newer teams interested while they are learning (not getting smacked by Div 1 teams) , gives the teams that have been in Div 2 something to aspire to and keeps the pressure on the Div 1 teams to be on there game at all times.

Having said that, the thing about the SAPPA this year is that all teams have been competitive. Not matter what Div team you are playing against the moment you take anyone lightly they will smack you!

[Neil]

After deadeyes angel problem (it looks like it has burnt out the solenoid coil maybe?) Mike Wallis at www.paintmagazine.com has made the ultimate pack for him! LOL!
What do you think, should this pack be made a necessity for ir3 and speed angel users?:p :D :help:
Cya, Neil.....lol....he is gonna try to get me for this!

[Deadeye]

lol nah I think I put enough paint into you at the last club day (accident:rolleyes: ) to keep you off my special hit list for a while lol:p

Did Sappa used to be div 1 vs div 1 and div 2 vs div 2? or has it only become open this year?

[Neil]

Yes, it was a little over the top...I counted 4 gun hits and 4 hits on me....lucky for you I dont carry a grudge!:D The first ball that broke on me got me to raise my gun...why the other 7?
Payback is a bitch Ethan, just remember that when some of the ratpakers play down at the next club day!:help:
Oh but dont worry too much...IM sure you think they are all too old to get you and I have told them you said that!:p
LOL!!!
Cya on the 5th, Neil

[Deadeye]

hey any of them give me any trouble and ill break their hips:p
remember 15bps there were a lot in the air;)

[Naughty NINJA]

Blacky...

How does the scoring work??

What are the placings worth??

Also....whats the chances of Rnd 4 being a 2 day event?
(Slim to none!!)

Then we could play EVERYONE,and have FINALS even.

I wanted to play the Bruisey Boys BIGTIME,but didnt get the chance in only 8 games...real pity.

AIRSTRIKE kicked some booty,those boys push pretty damn hard from what I saw of them.

LOOKING FORWARD TO THE VIDEO....OH YEAH!!

[JJJ]

Get your fingers out of your pocket Ninja.
6 for 1st
5 for 2nd etc...

[Deadeye]

Neil think you might put a team together for round 4??

[Neil]

Doubt it Ethan, it will be just after the Mt White tourney so I dont think money will be available to me. Unless someone wants to sponsorme?!? LOL!:p
Do you need a back player?:confused:
Cya, Neil

[Deadeye]

probably will as I think we are going to enter 2 Bruz Bros. teams this time. All our extra players are not busy so it can probably happen. I think we have 9 players, so one more.

[JJJ]

That may see the Enigma challenge off for the series title. :eek:

But as you can see with the new talent in div2, dont take anything for granted. :)

Have you sold that Speed yet? Does s'peed' describe how quick it needs to return to a tech for repairs? :evil

[Neil]

No, speed is what the fire department needs to do when you use the gun! :help: :D :evil
Speed is also what you must do with warranty claims! :cry: :D :evil
Hmmm from 30 balls per second to 0 balls per second? :eek: :confused:
Now its a good door stop!
L8tr, Neil :D

[CDG]

Did Sappa used to be div 1 vs div 1 and div 2 vs div 2? or has it only become open this year?

Our team FIGJAM (players from that team and a few others became DAMAGE)came back to play last 2 rounds of 2002 after a very extendend break. So I'm not sure about the previous rounds but the last 2 were split divisions.

[Deadeye]

my Speed is working again:D watch out R4:p

[JJJ]

If your Speed makes it to R4!

What was wrong with it?

[Neil]

He had mistakenly set it on "burst into flames" mode! LOL! :p
Ethan, I have stopped using "other" paint, gone back to chronic....look out next club day, what a difference! Shot the crap out of people yesterday, hit things with snap shots that even surprised me, looks like I found my "problem" too!
Cya on the 5th.
Neil

[Deadeye]

had some grit in the solenoid, which jammed it up. I manually fired it from the noid and that cleared everything up.
