I was down at S.A. talking to the owner today. Apparently King County is forcing all paintball fields into commercial zoned areas which is going to end up eliminating all the woodsball fields unless someone can get creative and set up a makeshift jungle in a warehouse somewhere. So that explains why the fields are all disappearing.

Speedball is fun and all, but i did enjoy running around in the brush. I mean, that's the games roots right there!

i got wind of a woodsball field that's open in the summer on maple valley highway, just at the bottom of the hill from fairwood. I think there's one on whidbey island somewhere, which pretty much means you'll have the place to yourself.

S.A. has a field in Puyallup, but i'm not sure if it's speed or woodsball. haven't been there yet. the ref that was there on sunday kept saying he wanted to go down there since his team was there, so that tells me it's speedball.

It's goign to end up being that the only chance we're going to have to woodsball is befriend someone in sultan or gold bar that has a ton of land, set up bunkers and play til the paint and air runs out. Which is really ironic given the amount of forests here.

lol that guy is about the worst person to talk to about anything paintball realated, he makes stuff up when he doesnt know the answer, why do you think he never works on markers himself? he is good to talk to about buisness stuff though, the SA indoor field shut down cuz he wasnt making enoufgh money off it as he was hoping, and the woodsball field shut down because of the stupid people in my neighborhood, my neighborhood is attached to the back of where that field was, dumb people started complaining and it got shut down

as for their 1 remaining field, it has one airball field and 1 urban field, the urban field is pretty cool, it really levels the playing field in that theres lots of good places to hide for the rookies and little slots for them to shoot from so if the pros are making a run for it they can get hit just as easily, its really a unique experience.

i was talking to one of the techs yesterday, he was saying they are thinking about expanding that field, but nothing is for sure yet
