Paintballing

Hehe, paintballing is fun. Although it was incredibly expensive. We ran out of paintballs because we couldn’t afford any new ones about half way through the match, and that isn’t useful. There were lots of little kids whose parents were funding the price of new paintballs. So my friends and I were sitting behind cover being hammered with paintballs, with no way of retaliating. Luckily we were awesome, so when we did have paintballs we won all our games, giving us a lead that the blue team and all their paintballs couldn’t steal off us in the last 2 games.

In the first game we played a deathmatch, where the teams got points for the number of kills they made. We weren’t allowed to camp however, and always had to be moving forwards. I took that last bit a little too literally though, and advanced to the point that I took cover on the otherside of what 2 blue team members were taking cover behind. It was an over turned table. Now there was a 10 foot rule for shooting people because it kinda hurts, but before the marshal could enforce this I was shot in the shoulder and the thigh at point blank range. It hurt, but sadly I wasn’t out because they shot me so close. I have some major bruises now – paintball size!

The next games were capture the flag, where we made our presence felt – having arrived late because we went to the wrong place, the red team were behind. Yet after the next 2 games we were 110 points in front. This was how we won.

I’m boring – should have tried a bit harder to make this blog interesting but I cba.

Have a picture of my bruise

I think paintballs travel at 120 mph
