Naming my A5!
Hey, 'Nation!
I have a tradition whenever I get a new marker. Recently I acquired a Tippmann A5 without a name. Every one of my markers has a name, except for this baby. I'm having a hard time coming up with a name, so let me tell you a bit about her personality (don't judge, I learn the personalities of my markers).
She seems to be sort of the "pretty-nerd" type of girl, balanced between brains and looks. She also is quite the hard worker. Never broke down and took a lot of abuse (crawling, dirt, sand, etc...) without so much as a hiccup. Also, she's kinda quiet and shy, but outgoing when she has to be. She prefers to yield to other markers, letting them do the playing rather than taking the glory for herself. She isn't prissy at all, spending more time on other interests than her looks.
So, I need a name that embodies these characteristics! Don't judge, just gimme a name for her! I'll post her picture after y'all give me a few names...

Okay, I've decided on a name: Amanda. Here's what she looks like, in her current setup.

Thanks for the help!

I loved my A5 when I had one 
I used to bust it out when my Shocker died and played Xball with it. All stock mind you, no response trigger. I didn't do amazing with it, but I could hold my own.

That, sir, is because you'e never owned one. I love mine. Zero upgrades (well, I guess there's a few in there, but no performance-related things!

I do believe, sir, that it is "you're" and not the improper "your," indicating the possessive. That aside, thank you for the kind words. You're certainly not the first to say that, nor shall you be the last.
