Relevant Post: " THE BIG GAME! -Marshall Law" -27th July 2008
Duration: 9:30am - 6:00pm
Location: Tanamera
City/Town: Sungai Buloh, Malaysia
Distance: 30km from home(PJ)
Rules: Semi-Automatic Fire onlyThe Beginning!
Man was it one heck of a day! Games started around 10:30am and went on all the way till 5:00pm! Approximately 100 players turned up and thats sweet!
Some of the Outfits which we saw during the event!:Chewbaka a.k.a Ghillie Camo(some what)Ninja a.k.a SWAT AttireHitman a.k.a Office AttireSpeedy a.k.a Speedball AttireDigital Jungle a.k.a Jungle Camo with Digital Patterns
To the ladies out there afraid of paintball and parents who thinks their daughters shouldn't play paintball, LOOK AT THIS PIC!
These leadies played paintball and they were well taken care of. Close range shots on females are strictly prohibited! (Only if you play with us)
We also had other games with different Tiers:
This area is in Lake Placid. Like mentioned in my previous posts, if there are enough players, more Teirs will be opened allowing a much more interesting game plan.
Because of the magnitude of this event, some marshalls had to hold sheilds such as this one..
It sheilds the in-field marshalls from crossfire. Taking 10 hits back-and-front isn't exactly how you would want to spell F-U-N.
Our main marshall, Adrian, an avid paintballer as well along with the other marshalls during the game. They ensured fair play. Everything went well except for....
....the first Lake Placid game when our opponents we're allowed to go on to a MUCH higher Teir and us being pinned down shouting "WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY DOING UP THERE?!", "YOU'RE OUT OF BOUND!", "FILE AGAINST THE TEIRS!", "MARSHALL! THEY ARE OUT OF BOUND!". The game went on for a while longer but it started to rain so we pulled out and continued a new round when the rain calmed.
(Click on the pic to enlarge it. Look closely to the top, there are players up there)
Btw, in this pic, that was me in lots of grass. I couldn't file up against the Teirs so I was in fire-range of the enemy but they didn't see me... Heheheh!
As we followed up with the game after the rain, we made certain of the Teirs opened to remove any confusion during game play and also, switch sides. A few others and I volunteered to be the runners. We took heavy fire upon arrival of the choke point. Some took hits while others held the line with me. As I realised we we're on the losing end....
...I crawled forward towards the enemy, hoping to be able to ambush the opponent while I'm undercover but unfortunate enough for me, I did not realise there we're such little cover ahead of me and at the same time, I WAS ON THEIR PATH! As they got too close, I opened to take an enemy out thus giving my position away and taking a bombardment of pallets and man, can they make you bleed!
Yes, I had some wounds because they were in such close range with me.
Took hits on my marker, shoulders, mask, fore arm and even my FINGERS weren't spared! Merciless shooters!
Check out this video clip, see those guys at 2:13 & 4:05? We'll those are my enemy and thats me being shot at in the end. Person filming, Emily. Marshall spectating, Emily and Adrian.
Towards the end of the day, a few of us wanted to get a taste of Speedball so we had a few rounds.
(A small dosage of Speedball each event is recommended) -Not joking
One of the rounds, our friend, Amanda who's first time paintballing since this morning and using a rental marker wiped out a whole team of 3 single handedly. It was really impressive tho I was on that team she cleaned out.The Ending!Well thats about it. Was pretty exhausted by the end of the evening and I had to wash up, have dinner, rest and be on my way to Luna Bar, KL with Emz , Meng and myself. I was invited by a friend so I took the opportunity to get Meng to come with me since I owed him a dinner for missing his 21st Bday.
(Btw, there were really hot girls coming up to us and dancing for us! Hey Claire, weren't you suppose to dance for us too?)
