Some crappy pics of my 135 and my Droid.
It was a sunday afternoon.
All the fun got used up on friday and saturday night. I was bored. Pictures for no reason! (oh yeah, it's a paintball marker) I was going for shots to match the blue in the prop with the color of the gun. So no leather shots as it is red and wouldn't match at all =P I wanted to get the spinning prop lasered on the side, but the new model is coming out at World Cup in November and I might upgrade. If I do, Ill get it bimmer lasered Actually I'll probably do it either way. |

Nice! I have an Ollie signed DM7 that I have been using! It's argyle tho so it doesn't match my bimmer at all. I like the MacDevs too. A lot of people here in Europe are sponsored by them. Do you play for anybody? Cool username too.

Yeah MD is pretty big in Europe and not so much here in the states. I got my Droid in Nov of 07 and people still come up to me with no idea what gun I have or even who MacDev are. I know alot of Millenium teams were shooting 07 Borgs when they came out. I have a white and black one and it's awesome. My teammate has the new one, the RX, in silver and gold. It's hot. I'm thinking about getting the new Droid when it comes out but I don't play a whole lot anymore so it's hard to justify the expense when I already have two sick gats. Right now I'm teamless, but a friend of mine and I are trying to get a team going. It's hard to find time and money for paintball when you're in your mid-twenties and trying to figure out what you're doing with your life =P Quote:
Egos are ballin as well. My teammate had an 08 before he got his Cyborg RX and it was a wicked iron. I'm from Smithtown and I play at Arena in West Babylon most tuesdays. I was there last tuesday and this week Ill be there on wednesday, so my teammtes gf can play with us. She'll be rolling my 07 Borg. Sometimes I play the Cousins outdoor in Medford. I play the Big Game there every year, actually. I used to play at Cousins in Happague all the time, until they shut it down. They had awesome layouts and good competition. Alot of the kids thre were cocky little bastards, but it was worth the good competition. Ill miss it. Thanks, I love my 135 as much as I love my Droid Maybe even more becuase it was 43 times the price =P There's a really poor quality video of my Droid on Vimeo that I made when I first got my Aiptek before I knew how to use it =P I have some more footage of it in much better quality that I just took this weekend along with my friends RX, but for some reason I don't even know I deleted my video editing software at some point in the past =/ When I get it back Ill do up a video form that footy and show you guys Im excited to see bimmer fans who are ballers |

I played occasionally for a few years after that and then went on a four year hiatus until 07 when my RC buddy decided he wanted to try it out. I brought him out to cousins in happague and he went and ordered his PM7 the next day. So, I snagged my Droid and we never looked back. Until about a year (and an 08 Ego) later when he couldn't really afford to play anymore, so it was back to only playing occasionally. Now our interest has been renewed, he's got himself a Cyborg RX and we're hoping to get a 3-man local or preferably 5-man PSP team together. We've spoken to a couple guys at Arena recently and we had some contacts from back in the day. If you are down there this Wednesday gimme a shout. We'll be there almost for certain (Ill let you know if we're not) and generally we're there 3-4 tuesdays a month (depending if the monthly bills left any cash). If we do get a team together we plan on drilling on weekends, probably saturday afternoons. We're aiming for a serious go at World Cup this year and would love to have a team together and practiced enough to play an event or two before cup. |

<------Jealous. I play DPL (Deutsche Paintball Liga) Regionalla which is just under the pro divisions. We have played the last two seasons DPL, a winter BPL (Belgian) league and One millenium event. It's all X-Ball format (my fave). We recently aquired a full regulation Millenium field so thats cool. Only prob is all my teamates are German so theres a slight comm barrier there. I wish I was in the area because I am sooooo hungry for action. I can't wait to get back to the states and play with americans. Don't get me wrong, I love a lot of the euro peeps. I'll deff have some lasting bonds all over Europe. But I need some hardcore killers on my squad. (Ramstein Instinct did beat down Dynasty 4-1 I think tho last event) Anywho, keep rollin that droid!!!!

Im jealous of you. I haven't been in league play for a LONG time and it's so different these days. So much more legit.
Honestly they're doing it better overseas than here, in my opinion. Professional paintball is taking big hits lately. Mostly becuase of the way we run our leagues. But all over eurasia you see tons of very well organized leagues popping up. Just look at the Emirates National Paintball League. They went from a bunch of dudes in t-shirts shooting tippmanns on crappy fields to a full blown competitive league in one year. Yeah I plan to keep shooting Droids for a long time. I might get the new one, the RX, this year but it depends on a few things. I'm dying to get back into serious tourney play. If you're ever on LI let me know. We'll go mow some faces. |
