Great post 10 shot, you
. heh
Another issue that I dislike, is the "tourney" guys writing articles on the in's and out's of scenario ball. (cough*PB Sports*cough) I mean, they are great paintballer's in their aspect of paintball, but to try to tell others how to play scenario games is just rediculous.
This goes back to a post by harb months ago about tourney guys being jammed down our collective throats at events, and dont get me wrong, all the ones that I have hung out with were great guys, but to have them general games because of what team they play for and who they are, well, we have seen the result of it. The same goes for some scenario teams, but that is a differnt issue all together.
On a similar topic, I wish to ask the people of MCB this, what is your collective opinion of the flashy jerseys in the woods and the such? Is it "scenario" enough?
A good example happened at ION 1 or 2 years ago, (who knows at this point), a player who was in the WW II garb came up to me off the field at one point, and said that I (and my team) shouldnt be there, as we were in "motocross" gear, and were not true scenario players. I informed him that you were not required to carry around 30 pounds worth of useless gear because it made you look "WW II ish", and to make a long story short, we agreed to disagree and went our seperate ways.
I fully belive that I am a scenario player, I have roleplayed once or twice, I have generaled and xo'ed a few games (most notably, Vipers Apoc Now game), my team runs missions whenever we can (we are a run-gun-mission team), and the same goes for the guys on my team. But just because we choose to wear a bright yellow jersey in the woods, it doesnt make us scenario players?
So what says you MCBers?
