If you play 3 times you'll probably spend $40-$50 on rentals alone. Just a thought.

Point taken, but $40-50 probably rents me a better gun than it buys. I'll have to wait and see how much my tax refund is this year--if it's sufficiently large (after I put another 512 MB of RAM into my computer), I may consider a $150 starter set.
After some shopping around, I've seen a wide variety of Spyders starting at 55 dollars, so a pakage deal may not be the best value. http://paintball.actvil.com/
According to what I've read, a typical renter is a Tippmann 98c. They run ~$130.
FWIW.
I see you made it alright to the LAN party. :) I should be able to make it around 9-10.
See that you do... :)
I was there. What lame excuse does Stitch have this time for not showing? ;)
I was there around 9-9:30 and no Stitch sighting then either.:tongue:
Next LAN party let's do lunch? Hooters? DiCarlos?
I think lunch at Hooters sounds like a great idea (I should, since I suggested it to you this morning...) :)
Ok, the weather is getting warmer and the smell of CO2 is in the air. Are you guys up for an April paintball battle? I'm thinking 4/18 looks good for me.Quote:

We were originally going to do a lan party that weekend, but Bribo wimped out.
I can't make that date, my son's b-day that weekend.Quote:

Yeah I kind of figured it might be a date that only the Pennsylvania guys (Beast/Fax/etc) would be able to do. Sunday the 18th is the walk-on date for "On-Target". Manhunt is open either Saturday or Sunday. I'd also be willing to drive over to that place in the Poconos if that's preferable.
On another note I figured out how to get my gun to go full-auto. Rolled thru about 300 paintballs in short order in a field behind my workplace this weekend. Not sure how much I'd want to use that ability though...paint can get expensive...lol
I also think we should try to get to one or both of these scenarios this year.
That weekend would be fine for me. It would be cool if we could pick a weekend when all of the NY-NJ gang and all of the PA-DE gang could make it, but trying to schedule that many people could be a logistical nightmare.
