LOD take the CSP - Argentina

Image
http://www.lod.com.ar/ On the weekend of March 17 came the first CSP event in Argentina for the year. It was a 2 day event with 25 teams attending from all nearby countries. Teams came all the way from Chile, Brazil, Peru and Argentina. It was a great turn out for the first event with many talented teams. The CSP has also brought in the APPA for the 2012 season. Its giving the league a more formal ranking system and also helps legitimize the tournament scene in Argentina. There was 3 divisions in the CSP where the 25 teams competed against each other. The top division, which was Open, had a 1st place prize of $2000. Planet Eclipse Sponsored Team, LOD, fought hard all day and came up strong in the end with the 1st place finish. Last year the team finished 1st place in the same event but they were only in the Amateur division and now have moved up to the highest division in the series. Team LODs 2nd team played in the beginner division. This is a newly formed team c...

SIDS Awareness Tournament

Image
Hello My Name Is Joey Phlipot. On May 3, 2011 My Son Landen Was Born. A Little Less Than 3 Months Old He Passed In His Sleep Due To SIDS. SIDS stands for Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. www.sids.org is a great site to find out any other information that you would need to know. One of the main problems is that there is no known reason why this happens. There's no cure and many different cases and reasons on how babies pass away. This is something I hope no one has to ever deal with, but paintball is something that helps keep my mind straight. The paintball community has helped me in many ways in coping with the loss. Thanks especially to ASMC and Da Luxe Mob   For more details and up to date prize fund please visit PBNation on this link: http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=3717701

We’re Drinking Again….2012

Image
By Pub Crawling.... It’s hard to believe, but the 2012 season is already 2 games old, and by the time you read this it will be 3 games old! We started the season in Fayetteville Tennessee, at Bearclaw paintball with the fantastic production company MPP (millennium paintball productions) and their head duo; Ben and Bonnie Torricelli. Now sometimes we get some grief for not attending the Friday night player’s party, this was no exception. Instead we chose to attend a private party thrown by 2 of our teammates, UmBop and Whitey. This was not an ordinary party, this was a Southern Crawfish Boil…and we spent the evening peeling and eating over 80 pounds of crawfish, boiled potatoes, and corn on the cob; hopefully that explains our decision to not attend the player party. It should be noted that sometimes we do go, but just not all the time. The game was excellent, as usual, but and I do mean but….we were reminded of what a good old fashioned butt kicking feels like. I’m here ...

Prophecy Paintball Team at the LXN

Image
The 17th and 18th of March was a weekend that PROPHECY Paintball Team will not forget. On this weekend we officially started the 2012 competition season at the 1st edition of the LXN event in the city of Porto. Since the beginning of February we have been doing some training with guidance of our Coach Jose Antonio Otero (Jota Apd) with the objective of preparing the team for the Millennium Series Event that we will play in Div.1 and the Portuguese National Tournament. Coach Jose Antonio Otero The training is good the team is getting strong, but with the Millennium in our minds we decided that we should put the team to a test before going to St.Tropez-Cannes [France], so to Porto we went (300klm travel) with a schedule all planned out, Saturday was practice and Sunday the LXN event. We decided to enter this event with several objectives in mind, study, train and play at a field with the Millennium layout, start using the tactics that our coach wanted us to start u...

Supremacy Did It Again!!!

Image
On March 4 2012 was the first event of PRPBE "Puerto Rico Paintball Events”. This event received more that 10 teams from Puerto Rico, and Supremacy was one of them. Supremacy took 1st  Place at The Pre Christmas 5Man Challenge 2011 in December and was ready for this event with the same intention to take 1st place. This time the team moved up a division and played D4 but with the same results as last event they came home with 1st place. The team has rebuilt themselves from the end of last year and already have 2 first place finishes. You cant ask for anything more from a new team. Should be a great year for Team Supremacy!!

Black Karma - Season Opener

Image
  BLACK KARMA After a short mild winter in the deep south, Black Karma was more than ready to get a jump start on our 2012 paintball season.  While much of the country had snow and frigid temps to begin their season, we were quite comfortable in the mid 60's. MPP Game's Apocalypse 2012 was our first game of the year at Bear Claw Paintball in Fayetteville, Tennessee and this game packed all the suspense and uncertainty as the ending of the Mayan calendar later this year. The Mayan calendar has long been the subject of folk lore.  Does the end of the calendar mark the end of the world as we know it, merely the end of the 13th baktun or did the Mayans just get tired of making a calendar?  More importantly, do we need to buy Christmas presents this year if the world ends before Christmas?  The Apocalypse 2012 game was set after the fall of civilization with the New Earth Order (NEO) planning on enslaving the rest of the Natives to build a future for the r...

Nicky T hits Badlands......

Image
  Nicky T on Tour !!! Hot on the heels of the Paintball Extravaganza in Washington DC, I was back on the road again, this time to visit  the Eclipse Distributor for Canada, Badlands Paintball, who were running an invite only Dealer weekend for their customers held at their headquarters in Toronto, Ontario. Dealers present were invited to take part in tech courses run by Eric Bratten of Tiberius Arms and myself handling everything Planet Eclipse. Arriving in Toronto Airport I was met by none other than Owen Ronayne, complete with his company car for the weekend; a 'deluxe' people carrier that was ideally suited to ferrying dealers around all weekend! Once I'd guided Owen to the correct terminal we hit the road and after a brief stop at one of Badlands location to pick up some supplies for the weekend, headed straight for HQ to ensure that everything was ready for the dealers imminent arrival. Eric had flown in the previous night from Indiana, so was already accust...
