05/30/2009 Allenspark:

I'll be posting a series of battle reports from my first year of paintball. Since it's already the start of 2010 and my first game was back in spring of 2009, I'll be posting the game dates in the titles.

My first paintball game ever. Invited by a friend. He told me to spot him for the cost of filling the CO2 cartridge, bring my own paint and he'd set me up.

About this Blog

This blog is meant to be a place where I post my own thoughts about the sport of paintball.

I am new to the sport and played my first game in May of 2009. I don't pretend to be any sort of authority or guru on paintball. But I am pretty excited about this new sport, and wanted a place to write down what I've learned. I'm not expecting any readership or anything, but if you want to leave a relevant comment, I'd love to hear from you.

Few rules:

1. No spam
2. No comments irrelevant to paintball and no trying to sell stuff
3. Keep it respectful
4. My blog. I don't have to be fair. If I don't like what you say, I'll delete you. If I consistently don't like what you say, I'll ban you.

(that said, I'm pretty laid back with comments. You really have to cross the line to get deleted)

Cheers.


Note: "Riposte" is a term from fencing where you parry the incoming blade and quickly counter-attack with your own sword. I use the term here, because my aim with the blog is to take the incoming attacks and events in paintball and launch my own thoughts from them. And it's aggressive-sounding. Good enough for me.
