I swear, somtimes when i got to paintball at my friends house for the afternoon lets say from like 11AM-6PM I get in about 1-2 hours of paintball playing and the rest are pretty much sitting in my friends garage eating, getting paintballs, talking about who got who, talking about our next game what type of game we should player next EXT.

I complain about this everytime i go to my friends house to play paintball, becuase normaly we get who ever has a gun to come and play. about 5 of us acualy play as a weekly or everyother week thing. Others we find who play like once every 6 months are the slow ones...

Then last time i find myself acualy trying to help some of them get their crap together and then they just watch me load their hopper, loaders, clean their mask ext! Then my friends are complaining that im taking too long!!!!!!

Anyone else have this problem with getting people to play the game instead of getting fat over the food and having fun setting their gear up for 30 minutes every time a game is over?

yeah when i played before in washington at this woodsball field..itd be 15 tops minutes of play, and then a half hour before the next round. when i went speedballin a few weeks ago, it was like 5-8 minute games, but only 10 minute waits...went thru a case in like 3 1/2 hours or so (not sure what time i got there)

yeah like at my feild everyone is ready 20 min before the refs say lets go to the feild, so were waiting like 40 min

**punk_pntballar** · March 17th, 08:00 PM

At my feild everybody is ready within 20 min then we just go and take the feild, no waiting time what so ever.

Not in Xball, 2 minute breaks. You better speed up if you plan on going anywhere.

**PizzaMiLiTiA** · March 17th, 08:56 PM

Meh, at our field we have tourney practice from 8:00 am to 12:00, then at 12 sharp, the refs give us a quick safety briefing and we hit the recball fields. If you time it right, you only have to wait about 5 minutes or so. And even if you do have to wait, you can pass the time watching the tourney crowd play and pick up some good tips in the process.
We play 5 fast games in a row, then take a 5 minute break for air and paint.

damn that would suck trying to fill up all of your pods, hopper and tank in 2 min.

**mavsfan31** · March 17th, 10:16 PM

Not to mention wiping all hits from previous games, and fixing any gun problems that come up. It keeps it more interesting for fans, and they have pit to help. If your smart, you just go in with your team at the beginning of the season and get approx 100 pods, then just fill them up every day to lessen some time crunch.

**punk_pntballar** · March 17th, 10:42 PM

true....well im out gotta rest up for the tourny tomorrow.
