Got this from the guys at Splatter Factor, they want me to spread the word apparently.



Dear Paintballers,
Throughout the year you've heard the buzz of Splatter Factor and the promise
of paintball on television, first on Fox Sports and now on The New TNN (to
have started on Dec. 7th) Unfortunately due to the delays of raising
sponsorship in time to complete the remaining episodes, Splatter Factor has
been put in a holding pattern, and will not air this winter.

You see, we are buying the air time because we believe so strongly that
paintball will be a hit on television, but the mainstream media does not
believe, not yet at least.

We're sure some of you are upset (to say the least) But Splatter Factor is
far from being over, and we still have the opportunity to air on a later
date on The New TNN, but before we do, we want to offer you the opportunity
to help get paintball on TV quicker by showing TNN that you want to see
paintball on television, and fast. TNN has put us on their website under the
New Shows/Sports and Entertainment section but we don't know for how long,
maybe they want to see what type of buzz will be generated.

That's where you come in. We need you to tell your friends, your friends
friends, and your friends friends friends and so on, about Splatter Factor
being on TNN, they don't even have to be paintball players they just have to
be an email address saying things like:
- When is Splatter Factor going to air
- I can't wait to see Splatter Factor
- I'm glad you guys finally came to your senses, and picked up a good show
like Splatter Factor.

You see, we've already done all of the leg work to get paintball to a major
network, like we promised. But now these networks need to see if in fact
there will be an audience who will watch a paintball TV show regularly.
So please go to http://www.thenewtnn.com/shows/splatter/ and click on the
section where it says email us, and do your part to get paintball on
Television
Thank you,


It can't hurt, spread the word people. E-mail them. And if you do email, please do be mature. None of the "Bout time you mother ****ers got your **** together! Werd up, bizatch".

Basically be polite. We give them enough buzz at TNN, they'll pick up the show faster.

I sent in a nice little rant about how golf sucks and why does it get its own network and paintball is way cool and...stuff.

Are they already plaiing to air the show, or are we actually helping by harrassing these guys?

Hmmmm well Bront, if you click that link you'll see right there on the left it states quite easily "EMAIL US".

I wonder how anybody could miss it.
