I need to vent
ever get those crappy days where nothing works?
my 24 oz. tank crapped out (stupid valve) so I had to buy a new 20 oz. tank
my matrix was just not co-operating at all today. I know what the problem was, but didn't have the stuff to fix it. so I had to resort to using a rental gun
and my pirhana my bro was using was chopping like mad, and I needed another o-ring for the bolt, and it was only going around 170 fps.
man today was crap.

Yeah I've had thoose days. Last weekend was a prime example. Saturday morning my apartment got hit by lightning fry my TV and VRC. Sunay I drive an hour to play paintball with my new cocker I just bought and I get there and it doesnt work(turns out g/f had adjuste the LPR reg improperly). My hopper sensor is acting up, then pulling my hopper out of my cocker one of the sides break. Ended up playing 2 games with my impulse that I brough along just in case and borrowing a revvy from I guy I knew at the field.
That was generally a sucky weekend.

I would have to say that I haven't fully encountered one of those days yet, but I have gotten angry at my friends and frustrated. this is mainly due to the fact that my marker in my hands performs like a dream, in their hands, they shoot snow(when I had CO2) and chop like crazy, then when they chop, continue to shoot and shoot because they think its funny and so I am cleaning paint outta places I never knew it could get into, thats why I have a new policy with all my equip, look, but no touch, especially when I finally get my cocker, I don't think I will even let them look at it, with the fear of it being damaged by them.

I had one of those the last time I played. It was cold so the velocity was low on my Xtra. The paint I had was brittle and broke a lot. The was a little snow on the ground and when I was running up to a front bunker I slipped, fell, landed on a tree root, hopper fell off and barrel got jammed into the ground. All while I was getting shot at. Somehow I managed to get into the bunker and get some cover so I could dive out to get my gun. Then I had to squeegee my barrel out and put the hopper back on and refill it. My friends who were shooting at me couldn't stop laughing. There was also a small leak from my cupseal that day (it stopped about midway through the day). I broke about 6 or 7 paintballs in my barrel. Chopped once. My revy stopped working so I had to use the old VL200 and chopped about 3 more times. That day sucked pretty bad...

yeah but you guys were all at fields at those times...
Try going out playing "outlaw" as they call it...
Having one persons tank empty (didnt realize)
another person me put my valve in the wrong way and drained the ENTIRE tank,
and the other person having half a tank,
and the last person have everything full and thinking you stupid.
one vs. one for a couple rounds then driving like 45 minutes back home :(
Nothing has gotten worse than that for me..
I dont even care if I suck it up as long as I have fun (i can have tons of fun sucking it up) :D ;) :D

I used to have really bad days like that.
Every time I wanted to go to the paintball field or buy something it was a problem. I got a divorce and no more bad days.:)
