Oh I know it didn't originate in paintball, what I was meaning is these guys were campers they had it in there head that if they get shot then they are "dead", so they would just form two opposing battle fronts and fire at each other...Games could last up to two hours- I show up and the camping business is driving me nuts, Heck I moved up on one guy who was 50yards away, I just kept a 55gal drum in between me and him. Alls he had to do was take a 3' side step to see me, He never saw me moving up. And like I said these guys are starting to move around allot more and taking more chances. In the very very near future they will be better than me.
