LOD take the CSP - Argentina

-

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 consisting of new players using Etek's and Etha's. For their first tournament ever they came home with a 3rd place finish.


It was a great event in Argentina and Planet Eclipse sponsored teams came off strong once again. Its another great way to start off the season!!

Cristian, Captain from Team LOD, had to say "Team LOD would like to thank all our sponsors and especially Planet Eclipse for providing us with great markers and gear to use for the past 3 seasons. The reliability of these markers is hands down the best we have ever seen as a team. We look forward to a great 2012 season!!"

TECH BULLETIN: CS3 HPR Body O-Rings ⚙️

Whenever we hear reports of any issues with our products – no matter how small – we like to jump on it as soon as possible, try our best to understand the root of the problem and then provide a definitive solution. Over the last couple of weeks we have received reports of some inconsistent air leaks from the frame and POPS area of the CS3. Every marker that we produce is thoroughly tested prior to packaging and shipping, but unfortunately these leaks have developed after shipping, and normally at temperatures below those that the markers experience in testing. This is generally down to contraction – or shrinkage – of seals that occurs as the temperature drops. The leak can be heard from around the grips or, with the grips removed, from the Regulator Hole A in the side of the frame. It can also be heard from the join between the bottom of the frame and the POPS. We have traced these leaks to what appears to be a bath of bottom tolerance 016 NBR70 o-rings used on the brass HPR Body (see...

Mutant Warfare

Team Capital Offense   attended the "Mutant Warfare" Scenario from Guru Games at Sherwood Forest. This event utilized next gen technology replacing outdated flag stations with digital & RFID technology.  Picture Courtesy of: Matthew Walton of Guru Games  Player ca rds are now tied to the scenario and are no longer just for chronos and safety briefs. Players use their cards to capture flag stations, acquire props and return for points, conduct game missions and more.  Picture courtesy of: Jon Barber The score was tracked in real time using Wi-Fi and RFID technology and a virtual game map was displayed that showed faction control as it happened.  Players were also able to score points individually and see their ranking on the leaderboard.  Developed by Matthew "MrEspn" Walton of Guru Games, the game also integrated Discord for live event updates and VOIP chats. The event was hailed as a significant step forward in paintball innovation, attracting pla...
