nice topic.. had a few lols reading down the thread

..
now i am not YET an airsoft player.. but i got a couple of paintball fails
1. in a V.I.P style game.. i was the V.I.P and had my gun taken off me... my team decided to all get killed leaving me weapon-less with at least half of there team still to go.. i cud see the safe zone i needed to get to, decided who of the opposition (out of who i cud see) wud be able to get a shot off, and then planned a route. So i jump out from behind my tree and embark on a heroic last man run.. however.. half way i noticed that i wasnt on my planned route n obvo while sprinting as fast as i cud cudnt stop to look around so just kept running thinking i'd find it soon... a few seconds later i was riddled with paint to find everyone laughing at me as in my excitement i ran straight pass the safe area
2. On the same day! a game or two later (cant remember exactly) i had wandered away from my team and was in a firefight with 2/3 of the other team... i attempt to move from behind a few barrels to a small wall. Half way their i get cramp in my hamstring, fall to the floor and get covered in paint again

that was possibly a more painful experience than breaking my hand in a rugby match

lol
another funny story i have from paintball is i was playing with my football team as a trophy night out kinda thing.. 1st game we're in.. my team is tasked with defending this hut while the others attacked it.. was quite a large arena so we cudnt see them until they wanted to be seen.. they first guy we see one of my mates calls out and fires a single shot, striaght into the poor guys nuts, we didnt kno he hit him in the nuts until he fell on the floor and yelled (instead of hit) you C**T you got me in the nuts, at this point we all burst out laughing and lost very quickly because of it

lol
Sorry for the long post but im bored and had too much time to spare
