well Xball is here, adn being as it's 230 here figured i type some stuff up

well what is it to start, Xball is a new format for paintball

how is it playerd?
40 minuet games devided into quarters, 10 minuet breaks or so inbetween each quarter. no point are given for flag grabs, eliminations or live players, just 1 point per hang, after each hang there is a 3 minuet break inwitch player fill air and paint, there are 10 man teams but only 5 people on the feild at a time (so u sub during breaks, like hockey and stuff) it's capture the flag format (i believe, im sketchy on tis, pain killers late nights and just iffy discriptions)

when did it debue?
the first tournament was at the iao, nations cup of x ball, each nation selected the best and the britest players, a max 2 from of each team, sucks for france, ton ton is debatably there only godd team:D ne, why america did silly duh, like 1/4 of the team was jt allstars/dynalanch

what do it hink? (hey it's my dman thread, i say this is in here)
well personally sounds like a good idea, but i think there needs to be a paint limit, other wise u just get the solid push going, 4 guys with as mcuh paint as the can hold with the fastest guns they can get, for a boxaround a flag carrier, who carrys a fat gun with not as much paint, they just start off shotoing fast and hard, never stop, bunker every one, grab the flag and have the carrier run back, repeat..but thats me

give ur opinions

yea. paint limit would be good. Also it would be cool if you got penalized for stuff like shooting someone too much or firering at 400fps like you have to replay the last time you scored, it would add more drama like in football when they get that winning touchdown but opps, false start. It will be cool but i dont see how it would be better to watch than regular pball. O well just me.

yea i was thinking, they say paintball is complicated to watch, so it's not very good to promote to watch like on tv, but then i was thinking, lok at football or base ball or tenis, thats pretty fing confusing
