OK, the time has come!

I am organising a paintball outing for club members.. this will be a casual punter day with possibly a beer down at the Serpi Tavern afterwards.

Date: Sunday, 25th October 2009

Time: 12:00pm (best to arrive about 11:30am)

Venue: Action Paintball Games WA, Punrak Rd Serpentine

Will require a $50 deposit the week before which covers a basic marker and goggles hire and you get a free 100 balls for depositing early. After that, pricing is as follows:

There are also 3 levels of upgraded markers available:

$20 upgrade - BT4 Combat, mechanical marker with an agitating hopper. Better barrel and slightly higher rate of fire compared to the base gun.

$30 upgrade - SmartParts Ion, entry level electro-pneumatic marker. Huge rate of fire compared to the mechanical markers.*

$40 upgrade - SmartParts Shocker, tournament level electro-pneumatic marker. Huge rate of fire and better barrel than the Ion.*

*I highly suggest that if you decide to go for one of the electro markers, that you also get a large paint package because you will chew through the paint rather quickly.

Camo overalls are provided and it's best not to layer up big time underneath because you'll get rather hot in there. Some sturdy shoes that you don't mind getting dirty is also the go :thumbsup:

Attendees:

$100-150 is a good day out paintballing.

If you're getting a mechanical marker then a SCOUT or TROOPER package is good.

If you're getting an electro then a COMMANDO or TERMINATOR package is the go.

The 2000 round package seems to be a bit much for most people even with electros.

The electros are the most fun and I'll let you all have a fingerbang of my favourite toy too :P

Once we have more of a list of people (and closer to the date) I will start taking desposits. The deposit covers your initial equipment hire, 200 balls and a free 100 balls, any extras (paint packages/upgrade markers) will need to be sorted out on the day once you get there.

P.S. I'll need a mod to add people to the list!

Hmm....should I really spend my birthday being shot in the nuts (probably) all afternoon??

Survey says....yes

Absolutely!

Mary spent her birthday standing on the side of the field getting shot at.. at least you'll be able to shoot back!

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
