January 2005:
Well the X-Ball League is over and my team placed 2nd. It was crazy cause it came down to sudden death in the end and we lost. I was shooting my new Freestyle and recieved a 2minute penalty for shooting 7fps too hot. A few points later a guy on the other team was clocked at over 300fps so he recieved a 5minute penalty. Well my team captian and I thought it would be nice of us to let him play after he chronoed down so that it would still be 3 on 3. So we let him play and they came back and tied the game up from being down 3 points. We lost the last game pretty bad, but in the end we all had a blast. My team all won brand new Empire Halos and the 1st place team won new Xboxes. I think that had to be some of the best paintballing I've ever done and I had a total blast. My team and I are going to be entering a few local tourneys this next season which my Freestyle and I will be ready for. Check out my new baby!:
December 2004:
My local field has been putting on an X-Ball League and currently my team, Team Rush, is first place. We have won all 4 of our games and we are the only team to do that so we are going to the finals. I think the last game is in Jan so we have a few more games here in Dec. It's been a total blast playing X-Ball 3 man style. We are playing on an indoor field which makes it tight, but still tons of fun. This is my first offical tourney I've every played in the 8 years I've been playing paintball. I am really enjoying it since most of the games end up being me verse 2 or all 3 of the other players. Several of our games my fellow team-mates had problems with either thier guns or they got shot on the break. One game we had a penalty cause our team captian's gun was shoting hot so they pulled him and we lost another player to another penalty. So basically we were down by 2 points and I was the only one allowed to play. I ended up tieing up the game and then we got one player back and we won the game by 1 point. I have to say it was a total rush. All these games I have been playing with my hypermag and I have been loving it. Sure it only shoots 13bps, but that's all I need. I mean I'm taking out guys with DM4s and E-Blades. My mag was the only gun to work flawlessly for all the games. I just oil her up and she's ready to rip all night no problems... ever. I chopped one ball cause I used the wrong insert in my freak kit, but it was a barrel break and not because of the gun. The LvL10 has been working like a charm. So I figuared I don't need all my other guns when this hypermag is working for me. So I'm again selling off a lot of my collection. Check out what I have for sale now:
October 2004:
I just got back from my second trip to Europe this year. It was a blast and I was able to see the Gunn Clan area up in the Highlands of Scotland and I must say that it's perfect woodsball land. While I was gone I bought a few guns and it was like Christmas when I got home cause I had like 8 boxes waiting for me in my room. One box had a Classic Timmy in it that is now in the shop getting tuned up. I'm excited cause it's my first real high-end gun other then my old Micro-Emag. I still have my Tribal and I just recieved an extra body and trigger frame for it from a local friend. I played the other day at my indoor field and I thought it would be fun to play with my PGP pistol. Well it ended up being me verse 4 players. I took out 3 of them with the pistol and then I came around to bunker the last player and it was Sarah from Team Empress with a Naughty Dogs Timmy she was borrowing from Mikey of the Naughty Dogs. Well I bounce a ball off her arm and she lite me up. Two in the leg and then one in the family jewels. I hit the floor almost crying. Eveyone thought it was great. I have never been hit there in the 8 years of playing so it was quite a suprise how much it hurt. I think I'm going to go buy a cup now.
September 2004:
I'm leaving again for Europe in a few days. I just recieved 3 new automags and sold off my X-valved Emag railed mag. I'm kind of glad to get rid of it cause I was getting sick of people asking to trade for my X-MAG when it was just a mechanical automag with an emag rail and battery case. Oh well it was a great gun while I had it. Never had a problem with the ULT or the LVL10. It was the perfect gun for me, but like all my guns it had to be sold to pay for school bills. I'm playing with my Tribal now which has been really fun. I didn't know electric guns could be this much fun to play with. I think I'm adicted so I just bought a hyperframe for my one of my mags. We'll see if I like the hyperframe as much as a fully electric gun. My last hyperframe didn't work so well so I'm going to see if I can get a ULT kit to work with the hyperframe on a classic valve on CO2. lol Sounds fun doesn't it? We'll see what happens... Also I have a new page with some stuff for sale. FOR SALE PAGE

August 2004:
Well I just got back from going up to Seattle for a NW Automags Owners Game. We had a total BLAST!!! It was so great playing with guys that love Automags as much as I do. We were all on the same skill level and we all had the same markers so it was pretty cool to see how each game turned out. I just wish I could play with more guys like these guys. If you want to see a video and pictures then CLICK HERE! I am also selling a lot of my mag parts to pay for my move to California.

July 2004:
I'm going to Europe for a few weeks so I'm not going to be around the forums for awhile. I just got a X-valve and another classic mag. If you want a mag then please email me and I could sell you one. I have too many mags and I need something different. I do have a few great offers, but I'm stilling interested in something electric. I don't like electric guns, but that's what everyone else has or wants so it will just make trading for a better gun even easier in the future.

June 2004:
Well I traded for a Blazer at the begining of the month and I loved it untill I started playing with a mag again. I have to say that I like the mag over the Palmer Blazer. The Blazer is really an amazing marker and if you get the chance to get one then please do cause they are fun and incredibly accurate. I was shooting really straight till I forgot to turn on my hopper and chopped one. Anyways it looks like I'm going to Europe at the end of this month so I'm trying to sell off a ton of my gear so I have some spending money over there. I'm selling the Blazer, a mag, a few tanks and tons of random stuff from my shop. Check out my FOR SALE PAGE.
Also I went paintballing at Portland Paintball where I work and I had a blast. If you are in the Portland, OR area then email me and we can go play. Here are a few pictures of me playing with my Micromag w/ Q-loader.
