He's 16 i think. (don't keep up with that). And since he's newer than me and pretty well broke, I'm pretty much funding this effort to drag him away from the internet/xbox once a month. and of course there's a possibilty that I may eventually bring my girlfriend to a game once i find her something she's comfortable using (ie dual wielding pistols). Only thing is I'd have to keep a very careful eye on her because she's diabetic.

Psssh he can come up with 20 bucks once a month. ;) You're a good person Stealth. Hahaha he sounds like my little brother... You cant drag him away from the xbox for anything... Only difference is he's 11 and scared of airsoft..... Don't give your girlfriend pistols! She won't hit anything! Give her a plastic bodied AEG with a couple of highcaps. When I was a noob I loved to just spray ammo. (I'm still a noob just less.... noobish? and I still love to spray ammo)

Well, she has this thing about not wanting to use my m4 or anything, and I doubt she'd spray and pray. She said she'd be more comfortable with something like pistols, so if I was going to bring her I'd get her a pair of AEPs with highcaps. And she'd be with me the whole time anyway, we're nearly inseparable.

So you could shoot the people then say "Good shot (insert your girlfriend's name)!"

As a poor college kid without an income I would have trouble attending more games. The one game a month is really all I can do...for now that is.

The fact that these new games would not have as high a turnout is absolutely expected. However, I see no other feasible way to add all these new fields that people do/will want to play. Fields like Rattlesnake Ridge, the other Airfarm (The 1st OP 24 and Assassination of a world leader were there), A new field in Lexington (The place where that practice game was during the zombie game), Paintball Central, and possibly even Blue Hole. If we keep things the way they are, then there is no space on the schedule for these fields to be added (unless we want to play fields only three times a year, which won't go over well with the owners). Yes, these smaller games in between big OPs on bigger fields will have a smaller turnout. I don't think that is a bad thing. We would still have the 100+ games every few months, but in addition we would have lots of 30-50 person games in between on a much greater variety of fields.

I am leaving it up to you all though, if you don't want more fields and more games, I won't do it. All it will mean is more choices and more opportunities. You will get to choose what weekends you want to play, what fields, etc. So it's not like this idea is going to hurt anyone who chooses not to play more often for whatever reason.

Hey Dom one of my teammates has a good bit of land in Greenville that he said we could have games at. It's great land, wooded with a few open fields. A couple deer stands we could probably use, trails through it all, and we have built one large bunker "fort" and we are working on more. PM me or reply here to let me know if it would be of interest. It is several acres, I think at least the size of the Airfarm where TDC was.

Well, I have 4-5 fields I am trying to add to the schedule already, so unless you would rather we do that field than Paintball Central, there isn't really room.

It's up to you Dom... It's bigger than PBC, but PBC has more bunkers and is more developed... So LMK.

EDIT: my teammate's field has 4 wheeler trails through the whole place, to clarify my last post. They are wide enough that we could probably use tanks.

This is a discussion for another thread, start one in field research and see what people think.

I could easily make games where the field fee is $5-$10 i.e. Blue Hole
