    Re: Pain(t)ball or Laser Tag

    I voted for Laser Tag just as for something different, but I am up for paintball as well.

    The date should be fine as long as work doesn't spring any surprises on me. Are there any plans for eating and drinking afterwards? If there is, can I bagsy (sp?) a place on the floor somewhere please?

    It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt; then it's bloody hilarious!

    Just had a look at your pictures now, look like you got on very well. Would you choose boarding over skiing?

    I'm not currently sure what is happening with my exams in april, but would really like to make laser tag on the 19th. Never been and from what I've heard its really good fun

    Re: Pain(t)ball or Laser Tag

    I've got a tournament the week after so I'll vote for laser tag , but if Paul ( @ sabotage ) isn't going to run it then I'll play some woodsball for an afternoon.

    If we do laser tag then you can get as many games in on a 1/2 day as you'd get in on a full day of paintball as there is a much shorter turnaround between games, although he can only take 10 people at a time with the lasrer tag.

    if its paintball , then cal you ask for him to make it a hybrid day - I'll bring all my toys with me

    I have space for about 4 in my flat and I think Moby, if he's free, can put up a few more.
    not a problem

    got a smaller car these days , just a xantia but I can take 5 ( as long as they pack light )

    Re: Pain(t)ball or Laser Tag

    Now this is interesting... I'll see if I can get that weekend off, if I do then the decision will be hard

    How painful is paintball? I've wanted to try it for ages, but I'm a wuss

    I know what laser tag is all about, quite like it (well I've played Quasar a fair bit, not for ages though), so that's definitely good for me.

    If paintball sounds good though... well, a first time for everything, right?

    Re: Pain(t)ball or Laser Tag

    Paintball can leave a few welts , other than that its a suprisingly safe sport , nothing more than a sting and a bruise to show off later

    the laser tag they play is a little bit different to quasar - the taggers have a range of over 150 meters and a proper red dot sight on them.

    I'm up for paintball and can make the 19th.

    However lasertag sounds pretty fun, so, I'm easy as far as both even and time and date

    Is that so? Guess it's the first time then

    Oh yes, just remembered what I forgot at work... can I get off that day? I'll have to find out thursday (Unless I forget again, my memory is worse than my nan's )
