Paintball Anyone???

Yesterday was extra fun.. super extra fun.. and why is that? because I was playing Paintball... hehehe... It was fantastic.. blood rushing game but I got to enjoy myself... That is important... the whole body is in pain but I don't mind that.. Okay,let me tell you a little bit about the Paintball Game.. Paintball, like many other games, revolves more around teamwork than it does equipment or even the skill of individual players. A well-organized team working together can defeat a team whose players are in disarray, even if individual members of the confused team have better skills and gear. Communication is key to a winning team, and often presence of mind and teamwork help to win a game....

Paintball is a game that is very similar to Airsoft in which participants eliminate opponents from play by hitting them with liquid-filled, breakable, gelatin paintballs shot from a carbon dioxide or compressed-gas-powered known as paintball marker. A game of paintball usually involves two opposing teams seeking to eliminate all of the other team's players or to complete some other objective, such as retrieving a flag, eliminating a specific player, or other paintball variations. Depending on the style of paintball played, a paintball game can last from seconds to days, although typical woodsball games are five to thirty minutes long.

Like many sports, safe participation in paintball requires observance of proper safety procedure. When safety rules are followed, paintball is extremely safe, with an injury rate of only 0.2 injuries per 1,000 exposures. The most important rule in paintball is that all players must wear a protective google system or mask at all times when they are playing or near other people who are playing. While paintballs will not cause permanent injury to most areas of the body, the eyes, and to a lesser extent the ears, are vulnerable to serious injury if hit by a paintball. Paintball masks are specifically designed for the sport, and the goggles are capable of withstanding a direct hit from a paintball traveling at well over 300 feet fer second (90m/s), the safety limit adopted by paintball marker manufacturers.

These are the basic variations of the game;
  • Capture The Flag- A team must take the flag from the designated flag station, often either at the opponents' flag station at the opposite side of the field, or in the center of the field. The flag must then be 'hung' at one's own flag station or the enemy flag station, respectively.
  • Elimination - A team or individual player must eliminate all of the opposing team.
  • "King of the Hill" - two or more teams attempt to capture and hold one or more bases. The game is won by the team that holds the base(s) for the longest net amount of time.
  • "Vitals" - A Paintball contest variation where only hits to the chest, back or head count as eliminations. Hits to the legs, arms or shoulders do not count. VitalsGear team game and tournament shirts are worn to determine if human vital organs have been hit.
  • "Mutants" - A type of team elimination where there are two teams- mutants and humans. When a human player is out, they switch sides and become a mutant. The mutant team tries to eliminate all human players. Eliminated Mutants only sit out for a certain amount of time, usually ten minutes. The game ends when all human players are out.
  • "President"- one player on each team is the president and each team must keep there president unharmed but also take out the other teams president.

Paintball equipment varies depending on the type of paintball game being played and the skill level of those playing. Every player, however, requires three basic pieces of equipment:

  • Mask :Absolutely necessary for players' protection.
  • Complete paintball marker : Markers usually also require some sort of loader/hopper and propellant to work (CO2 or compressed air).
  • Paintballs : To eliminate other players

Thats a little bit about Paintball... You have to experience it personally to know how its feel.. its a pure joy.. So, I am calling my friends to join me to play next time.... hehehe
