your greatest moment

[Doggy Diggity]

whats your greatest moment in paintball

mine was when i first started playing, i went to play speedball on a spyder compact. i was bunkerd by a intimadator. th kid layed off and i only took 1 shot and got him right in the face. after all he would say was "you lit me up out there, you lit me up out there."

since then now its a autococker all the way

[Micewheelz72]

My greatest moment is when the 3 best on our team went against 4 other guys. The flag was on a big rock in the middle of a frozen pond. Right in front of it there's another rock. so, the three of us rambo our ways down to the first rock. My teammate, james, gets the flag. now we're pinned . I look at james, grab the flag and say "James... take my gun." So i give him my rebel, and at the count of three he pops up and shoots the crap out of everything with a rebel in one hand, and a tippmann in another. Then I scrambled to the side of the pond, but then I fell flat on my face. I crawl my way to the side. I got up on a small ledge and do a victory dnace as 6 balls come flying at my face. It was fun as well as glorious...

ok, this is a true story

we were playing at my friends field (they used to own a filed but they closed it down) and it was 3 on 2, my team having 2. well, out of our little group im prolly the best, not to toot my own horn. but the other guys are good too and they talk ALOT of crap. anyway we start and my friend on my team shoots one guy out and im moving up a whole lot, and im on the other teams side. so i bunker one guy and start snap shooting at the other guy. I had no idea where my teammate was but i figured he was helping me in some way. so i start sparaying at this guy and i bunker him too!! well, i found out my teammate's gun had jammed and i beat 2 fairly good guys all by myself :)

but that was like a year ago and im alot better now, they havent playued in a while but at the time we were close to evenly matched i had a little more game than them. but i was so freakin happy.

[Asylum]

My friend and i challenged 8 of our other friends to a 8 on 2. Well it started and my friend ran out of gas. It was a 1 on 6. I won!

[Mr. E]

I remember one game I was on a team against some real trash talkers and it got down to 4 on 1 (me) and I won! I started off by snap shooting one of them, got the other one as he was trying to bunker me and snap shot another guy and bunkered the last one.........ah, that was truly a great feeling.

Oh yeah, at my first tournament the second game I got the pull and the hang (with 5 seconds left!!) and shot out 3 opponents...


:)

[ThaFiend]

this one time (not at band camp) I was playing on my friends field (30 acres) .... we played a night game and we had radio headset things so we knew where eveyrone was, there were 25 man teams and I got split up from my group, and I was walking through a field and I heard voices in a bush about 10 yards in front of me.. so I get down and start crawling on my stomach over there and I hear what sounded like two guys argueing... so I bust out my two tippmann nades and throw them in there and I hear 10 big "DAMN IT!" and then about 5 *sigh*s and then I take out my flashlight and I shine it there and all 8 dudes were sitting there covered in paint and holding there hands up... it was my greatest achievement in paintball.

[Mattbar]

I'm a big guy (6'2, 270) and a pretty good shot, but not much on charging. Were playing 4 on 4 speedball. Its 2 (us) on 3. I say *f it* and take off running, shooting one guy as I pass, and acutally end up behind the other 2. One was out of air, and one was out of balls, and they surrendered. :D

[98 guerilla]

Ive mentioned this a long time ago. But ill mention it again. THe suicidal charge i led with about ten people with me against 10-15 terminators (they cant die,they cant get out) was a great moment for me. WE drove them back . i guess it scared them to have 10 people sprinting shooting anything they saw and screaming a battle cry at the top of their lungs. well they came back and shot us up bad. but we hit them a lot too, and our suicidal charge is something me and my friends talk about when we talk about great moments. i thought it would fit here

[tourny_wannabe]

well i was playing centerflag with my old gun cause the GZ bolt had broken in half[long story] and my game timer had just beeped for 30 secs, but me and my team were in a draw against like only 4 campers / what they called them selves "snipers" so i stand up and yelled "30 secs EVERY BODY RUN RUN RUN CMON" well i ran ........... but my team didnt so i was running balls flying around me then blam splat plump im hit in the butt my hand and my head and i was wearing a flex 7 ize for hyperball for those oh so grasious bounces, well this bouce i didnt want my jaw was bleeding for quite some time

any whoo people started reconizing me as the crazy eprson that ran right past 3 guys and screaming like a druken irish person

thats my moment

[Crime Dog]

I have two glorious moments. One was when I was playing some woodsball. I stayed on the third story of our fort with a few other defenders, guarding our flag. There were three teams...Red, (us), Blue, and three mercenaries that could play for either team, or niether. Well, our offense stalled the Blue Team's attacking squad out in the field, so things were pretty quiet at the fort. Until I noticed two mercenaries sneaking around our fort. I started calling out their positions to my other guys (since I was the "eyes" this game). The mercs were veterans. One was armed with a flatline and takin' pot shots at me. We traded shots back and forth for awhile, no one getting tagged. The flatline finally moved up and to the front of our fort where he took cover behind a tree. He had some darn good accuracy, and I had to duck away from the slot I was shooting out of quite a few times. Finally, I nailed him on the shoulder, and tagged him! That was the first flatline I had ever taken out (I was using my J&J at the time.) He yelled out "Nice shot!" and, then suddenly I heard the whistle blow and the ref call, "Game over!"

My most glorious moment was quickly followed by my most UNglorious moment, when I realized I had gotten tunnel vision, and there was a third merc BEHIND our fort that I had never seen. He snuck into our fort while we were all concentrating on our front and side.

Moral of the story: Don't get tunnel vision! (And don't think your "glorious moment" is so glorious. Ya get a big head and over-confident.)

My second glorious moment was during a speedball game. I was in the center behind a pipe, and I had a guy on the right flank that I was working with. The right flank fell back, feigning he was losing ground. THe attacker (my boss and best man) yelled out to a teammate in the center asking if it was clear to move ahead, and he was given the go ahead. Todd (the attacker) then rushed to the next bunker, not looking to the center where I was. I calmly let a paintball fly, but it curved to the left. Todd's head jerked to where it had come from, and I let one more fly, elminiating him. I loved that tactic! We regained our "lost ground" on the right flank, and quickly won the game.

[Colin]

My best moment:
I was playing a game of airball in an arena. My teammates were all newbies whom I did not know and I was playing against a team of about 11 veterans whom I did not know. I slowly crept up the right side of the arena and got into position behind a pill shaped air bunker, loosely gripping my rental Prolite. Suddenly, the arena erupts with a cacaphony of gunfire and frightened newbie screams. I see a Prolite blind firing over the top of the triangle bunker in front of me. It's paintballs were flying safely into the dirt about 20 feet away from me. "Hell" I thought to myself. I charge the bunker and circle around it. The 20 year old player was met with a crazy 14 year old barking orders at him to surrender and a barrel firmly placed against his goggle lense. His hands shot up and he surrendered. I guess I was screaming a little loud because the next thing I now, a guy pops out from a pill bunker and rounds start tearing up the mulch floor in front of me. I quickly level my gun at him and fire three times, hitting him in the knee and chest. My heart is pounding out of my chest with exhiliration. Just then, I see about 8 people grouped behind a humongous bunker. The close encounter with the man at the pill bunker had told me of my situation and I had nothing to lose. I quickly sprinted across the field to the large group of teenagers behind the bunker. Their backs were turned against me and there was a moment of tense silence and anticipation before the battle exploded. *POP POP POP POP* I start firing into the crowd, the Prolite's fire was seasoned with screams of mercy and surrender. I see 8 pairs of hands shoot up into the air, but not before I am hit twice in the shoulder. I follow all of my kills off the field, feeling proud and invincible.

[Enos_Shenk]

hmmm, first night game i ever played, it was just me and 2 friends playing as melee. Anyway, i was wierded out because i wasnt used to not seeing so i camped a bit at the start, then went off around the edge of the field, trying to find my friend rol. Anyway, i was standing still, listening for anything, when i see a shape straight ahead behind a tree about 10 feet away move a little bit. I felt sure he was about to nail me but i didnt get hit so i slowly dropped to the ground, trying not to rattle my hopper too much, i had absolutely no shot, so i waited in a very uncomfortablke twisted up position. Finally i saw the shape walking away from me about 30 feet out, i aimed and fired, the shape froze and started to turn so i fired again and was rewarded with that "ow, hit"

anyway, not to be long winded, but i still had to find the second guy, my other friend ben. I started heading back twords the center of the field. Anyway, again, i stopped to listen, and just happened to hear this very very quiet *click*, somehow my brain figured it out and i realized someone had left their safety on. So i dropped just as ben fired, i doubletapped his general direction and got him on the mouthguard, haha. I was rewarded by the even better "ewwwwwwwwwww, hit"

[JEDARAPA2]

My great moment was when me and all my firends were playing at a speedball field we built at my house. It was 4 on 2...me vs. my friend, everyone else was somewhat inexperienced. Anyway, because the field was really small, we started by saying "3,2,1, run!", and then 3 seconds after that you were allowed to start shooting. I make my move to the huge sand pile, my friend going to a ghetto-blastified POS bunker that was about to fall down. I see everyones hoppers on the opposing team, i nail 2 with 1 shot each, and then about 1 second later nail the 3rd, and since the 4th dude was right by him, I easily nailed him too. My friend, meanwhile, just got up from sliding into his bunker, pops up and yells "WTF is going on!, This game lasted like 15 seconds!!, I didn't even get to pull my trigger!!". After that we werent allowed to be on the same team.

[mattystang302]

My greatest moment was last Saturday at a local field. It was only my second time playing and in the third game of the day we were at the castle, our team of 3 defending and the other team of 3 attacking. When the ref yelled go I ran down a small hallway into a little room with no large holes, only small gaps in the wood. One friend is up in the tower and the other is lying on the ground aiming under the wall, there was about a 10 inch gap, at the front of the castle. I can see through the gaps in the wall that someone on the other team is moving up on my side so I take aim out a crack just as he reaches a bunker. He peaks out the right side and I take one shot that misses him but he pulls back in, then he peaks out the left side and I fire one shot that hits him in the goggles. One down. I hear my friend that was at the door exchanging shots with someone outside so I go to the end of the room and see that there is a player behind a large rock shooting at him. I try to get him but I could not get a clean shot, then my friend gets shot from behind so I quickly go back to the hallway that I went down to see where the shot came from. By this time the player in the back of the castle had taken out my friend in the tower and was slowly moving in looking for me. I was trying to get a clear shot at him when he ran up to the wall that I was standing behind and put his back up against it. He just ran straight into my barrel so I yelled surrender and he turned his head and was surprised to see me there. He surrendered but I had totally forgotten about the third player that was at the front of the castle and while I was busy with the player in front of me he popped into the hallway and tagged me in the hand. These were the first eliminations for our team that day as the first 2 games were dominated by the other team, the first game lasted about 45 seconds from the start.:laugh:

[IromKnight]

ok here goes:
me and my friends are playing rec in the woods. we play fairly close to a river so there are a lot of flood wall around to redirect the water. Its great. so we decide to play Terrorist/SWAT Team. I was on the terrorist team, and obviously, the SWAT guys couldn't shoot the hostages. Well the game started and a well executed flanking maneuver left all of my team dead except me, an the "hostage". So it 1 on 4.
Now in these games, usually the hostage just sits around and hides but not this time. i grabbed my friend Matt and threw him around the flood wall and yelled at him to tell me if anyone was waiting for me. he goes "uh...i don't know":rolleyes:
so i jump around the wall and landed a paintball right on my opponents...area( i didn't mean to tho...damn stock barrel). three more to go.
The rest had regrouped at the opposing floodwall and so i grabbed my trusty hostage and flung him around the other corner. i peaked around and saw an opponent hiding behind a tree, so i bunkered him and went after the other one. he was hiding in a makeshift bunker of dead branches and leaves so i rushed him like a mofo, and bunkered him.
yeah, i was a hero for a day:D

[PGA1234]

My best moment-

Well my friends and I went to the local indoor paintball field and there was only 2 other people so we go in and play 3 v 2 my team having 3 anyway we start playing I move up to the 30 my friends are at the 20 and shooting at them and I have no clue where they went so I sit up and wait for awhile then this guy scoots out from a bunker and sits 2 feet out waiting for a chance to make a break. I fire 4 shots at everyone hits. He's out so I start looking for the other one my friends are firing at him but not hitting him. I have no clue where he is then all of a sudden he pops out the side of a bunker bout 20 feet up ahead and hes shooting at both my frineds and I fire4 shots and get him out too. That was real fun because they had Autocockers and I have my $220 setup :D :D :D.

[anchorite]

Me and My dad vs. 2 guys from Phoenix heat.

we lost... but I bunkered one of them, when it was me vs. them two. my dad got eliminated off break, I ran from the right tape, all the way around to the left, and bunkered this guy. he plays Phoenix Heat Amature... they are first place in the Pan Am series.

[Surreal]

i had 2 real sweet moments, in the same day.

1) its my second time paintballing, and i have my flatline. its the runout, i stop for a second and let 1 shot fly, and i wasnt even paying attention to where it was going so i just ran away. 3 seconds later i hear "IM OUT, GOD DAMNIT IM F'IN OUT". i tagged my friend from like 215 feet out with 1 shot, right to the chin. i was excited.

2) shortly after that game, we were playing and i decided to stay wayyyy back behind the furthest bunker (i wanted to test my flatline). i see my brother behind this shopping cart (ghetto bunker, yes i know.), i let 1 shot fly at him (not even aiming) and i hit him square in the center of the goggles. this one was from about 225. it was so sweet

[shocker622]

one of my best games was about 6 months ago, it was the first game i had with my shocker. it was me, and 4 friends vs about 10-12 people, on airball. off the break i run down the right tape to about the 40 yard line, and come out and take a snapshot, hitting somebody sticking out, then i hear one of my friends, "middle beercan!!" i look at the middle beercan guy, and have a clean shot, and i take it and hes gone. then i move up to a + shaped bunker, and pop out and take out some kid sitting in the back, then i start shooting across the field and i hit my friend on the other team and this other guy all at once, with a nice stream of paint(gotta love that turbo), then they have 2 guys left, and we still had our whole team. while this was all happening 3 guys on my team were wrecking the whole middle and left tapeline, while me and another friend were working the right, killing everybody. when they had 2 left, i ran the tape and bunkered a kid in the nipple(shot him 3 times in the back, ouch!) and shot out his friend in a laydown carrot, it was an awesome game. this whle thing happened in about 3-4 mins, it was great.

[Ebonclaw]

Ah...the first game on a field. I was using my "tricked" Stingray II. You guys know what I'm tlaking about, the newbie gun. Starfire bolt, scope, and 16" sniper barrel. Well, everyone else was using mags, cockers, and the like, and one guy had just gotten his warp feed. Well, I was playing hard but I hadn't tagged anyone. Finally, after trading shots with the warp feed guy, I bunkered him. I was lucky enough to get him while he was reloading. I didn't even know what bunkering was, and this guy after the game starts cracking up and saying "That dude with the Stingray bunkered me! Did you see that?" He was laughing and the rest of the guys were too.

My other moment was followed by a horrible one (see the friendly fire thread).
After creeping through the night belly down and laying perfectly still in the presence of two base guards, I could actually hear their conversation. I was probably about 30 feet away, dead silent, flat against the ground, and shiny anno'd gun covered up and flat against the ground. I dind't want to shoot them and give away my position, since the Shutter sounds like an AA cannon, but I finally said "aw heck" and rose up quickly and popped both of them. They asked me where the heck I came from and I quietly whispered "I've been here for 15 minutes waiting for you guys to leave!!" They smiled and walked off the field. I was surprised they didn't see the hopper come off the ground right in front of them. I went on to creep around for another half hour or so, until I was juuust out of reach of the General's HQ. I was shot in the leg by my own teammate who didn't realize there were friendlies in the area when he entered.

[WordTizzle]

went out to a friends farm, had a PGP war, and every game i shot everyone i got in the ***..some games i got the same person in the *** multiple times. I wasnt necessarily aiming for their asses, but it just panned out that way.
my nick name after the day was "*** master" lol

[Paintballskier]

Once there was this one guy( great player with angle who had like 5 of us (all scared newbs, Crappy rental guns) pinned down. a friend of mine was within shouting distance of me and could see the guy but not shoot him so I told him to tell me when they guy went down. He did and so I got up and lined up the shot, then I fired a shot to see if it would go where I wanted it to (the balls where curving like crazy). Well my gun was on a low fps, so I shot the gun while the guy was still crouching, and right before it got there he poped up, got shot on the goggles and fell backwards. Then we all souded our Newbie war cry and rushed across the street. For some reason the rest of the team followed us and we rushed over and grabed the flag.:laugh:

[Blackfire]

My greatest moment was when I threw a nade into a treefort full of freind and we weren't aven playing. Actually, that did happen but thats not my greatest moment. It was probably when it was 2v1 me being the 1 and both my freinds in a tree fort with one up top and one below behind some boards. I shot the guy below from 20-30 feet away through a slot in a board that was nearly exactly the size of a paintball, and then shot my other freind in the ***

[Tate]

our field is basically sticks and old doors.. and whatever else we can find to make bunkers out of.. so theyre mostly low to the ground.. about low enough to kneel behind.. so were playin 2-2 and nobodys really getting anywhere because we had 2 average players against 1 really good and 1 semi-noob.. (i consider myself average) so i tell my friend to cover me while i bunker the really good player.. so hes layin paint.. and i run around towards the side of his bunker and all of a sudden he pops out and sees me.. so im like oh (expletive deleted).. so i pull a football juke while he unloads like 5 balls.. miraculously they all missed and so i jump over the center of the bunker and shoot him twice in the air matrix style.. the noob was watchin so after that was done he ended up hitting me in the chest.. but my teammate took him out and we won.. and i got mad props from everybody there for the move.. they all call me "The One" now.. lol

[Crick.]

my greatest moment - we were playing a game called alien vs. humans. i was the alien so it was 1 vs. 9. Well i started 2 minutes before everyone else to hide. I get inside this upside down trailer, and wait. The game starts. All of the other people decide it would be best to stick together. So i hear them. They all go into this little metal shack, and i stand up and shoot a couple times. I missed. Well i hear them yelling "throw a grenade throw a grenade!!" . They threw a grenade and it lands next to me. IT DIDNT GO OFF !! I picked it up and threw it into the metal shack and BAM ! 9 guys come out COVERED in blue paint ! :laugh: it was so funny, they were cleanin their guns out for 10 minutes. :laugh:

[AK47]

Bunkering a guy with a Timmy using my PGP:D

[Goose]

nearly singlehandedly taking down a guy with a freeflow cocker and his buddy with an impulse...
OR
the time at a big game where a guy with a cocker was 200 ft away and couldnt hit me so i lit up his bunker like a christmas tree(it went from clean blue to painted yellow) and he ran away.....
BOTH times: shoulda had your tippmann

[daveofdoom]

i took down all six people on the other team within the first min.:D every one was like crap hes good

[locust]

i was playing speedball with some friends and some kids who hadn't played with us before. we were making teams and they split up me and the new kids who weren't very good. i said that me and the new kids would take the rest of them and the new kids said no way. they had only seen me play one game of forest and they thought my friends were way better or something.
anyway, me and the new kids played the rest of my friends. i ran to a bunker and paint started landing right behind me. i moved in, but not far enough and got shot right in the side. then, the rest of my team got ran over. the game lasted about 1 1/2 minutes. i was disgusted w/ myself and so pissed. :pissed:
next game, i said rematch: same teams, same sides. everyone said "no, let's switch sides/teams." i said, "no, rematch, everything the same." the new kids thought i was crazy and a bad player. my friend said, "dude you got too much pride."
the next game lasted about five minutes, but this time i shot out the entire opposing team by myself.

[XxK2xX]

my most glorious moment was the first time i played with my tl+. it was 1 on 1 and i bunkered a guy with an autococker who had 3 years of experience! after the game he kept on telling me that i was pretty good for a newbie, then he bought me a case of diablo midnights...

[edspyder]

ok, picture this, i was playing capture the flag with a bunch of my friends. There i was staring at the flag, on the left on top of a hill was my friend, he was guarding the flag, and on the right there was this other guy. i knew my friend would have a hard time marking me so i rushed the other guy, he immediately jumped behind a bunker, so i slowly sneak up on him, then he takes a couple of shots at me, all missing of course.when he ducks back into his bunker, i hear him changing his co2 cartridge(he was using a pump), so i just walked up and gave him a mercy kill. Now, my friend saw all this but he was still on top of the hill, so i dashed for the flag, grabbed it so my friends starts to chase me, i shoot blindly behind my back, remarkably I HIT HIM!. so back to my base where i was praised by team mates.

[Zara]

Me and a my friends were playing a game. There was 2 left on my team and 2 left on their team. I snuck up behind their bunker and held my gun to this girls back through a window and told her to surrender. I didn't want or plan on shooting her, but She didn't surrender and quikley spun around and tried to shoot at me. In one instant, I leaned back and dodged the ball and shot her right in the chest. It was like matrix style. Meanwhile my buddy lit up the the other kid on the other team.

[SS-Fritz1GD]

Mine was when i was playing with a bunch of my friends....we tried a 2 on 2.... and right off the bat, my friend Kyle and I got on the flanks of my friends Dave and Joe. We smashed them so bad. cross fire and all. Dave was whiped of the bat, but then I ran right up to Joe, like 4 feet away, started screaming like hell. DROP YOUR GUN DO IT NOW!!!! NOW!!!. and he didn't so.....I lit his a** up like a chirstmas tree. Just peppered him for 4 feet away...I know it was mean, but it was fun :D
Well, then a couple games later I was still feeling good about my take over....and Joe and Kyle were in a bunker on the side of this huge hill....well i got to the bottom of it and my friend dave was laying cover fire.....and I ran my a** up that hill....screaming the rebel yell....I got to thier paint filled bunker, jumped over the side,"PUT YOUR HANDS UP!!!! NOW!!!!!!! DROP YOUR WEAPON!!!!!" Man, I never saw anyone so scared before.....I am an animal. Except, I felt sorry for them, with paint all over them from the bunkering...so I didn't light them up.

That was the best day of my life! lol
Cheers

[TonyD246]

When in the hell was this? Where was I?

BTW< lucky it wasn't me you tried it on....

[SS-Fritz1GD]

Tony, you weren't there. It was just Joe, Me, Kyle, and Dave. It was way back when I had my pump, and you had your rebel with NOTHING on it. lol


Cheers.

[TonyD246]

Wow, back in the day.... I upgraded my Rebel pretty much like the 2nd or 3rd time i played. Been a while too.

[Twitch]

My 3 best moments.

First tourney I played ever:

Losing all day - off the break ran 1/2 field, slid into the bunker w/ the flag - got the pull. Heard the other forward (on the other team) slide into the other side of the bunker. Layed on my back - knees tucked under me - he came over the top - I was ready & gogged him. His shots missed / bounced. Then our team was crushed.

Scenerio Game:

holding a fort w/ 2 other guys - (The Villiage) - it was rushed by 8 people from the other team - tried to defend it - didn't work, my other two team mates got shot out. Ran out the back & around to the left side - got one fat newb walking up the trail. 2 more expirienced players coming up the same trail. Got one guy in one of the huts in the villiage as I saw a guy run right to flank me. Abandoned my former position & ran to the marine base (behind me) as the guy in red ran to where I used to be (shot him out) ran back to the villiage - past the exit i used & got someone on the trail. finally got pinned & got tagged - after I was out walked up to the guys in the villiage - there were 3 left.

"Any more of you out there?"
"Naw I was the only one"
"Holy shiznat man."

Different Scenerio Game:

Was one of the guys w/ a radio - helping direct out forces - we had pushed HARD - taken bunker hill - a 5 man team (speedball) was playing together & asked "where do you want us" sent them into the brush to the left of bunker hill.

Was radioed from out left position - that they had contact & needed reinforce ments - grabbed 3 guys - walked them over to the left - pitiful fire fight. The other team did a huge push on bunker hill - ran over there (by myself). Got there as the 5 man team - lit them up from thier flank - only a few of the attackers were left. Surrendered one who was concentrating on the 5 man team in the brush & got another 2.

I love it when a plan comes together.
