I'd honestly prefer either no prizes

Or prizes that are more about the bragging rights (plaques/trophies or even something like the specially made SPPL air tanks) than about the prize itself.

I don't plkay woodsball personally, but this is long overdue. All the kids on dynastys nuts will hate it, but Woodsballers, and recballers make up the majority of the paintball community. Good on you UWL, I wish you the best of luck.

I would also like it if, instead of gear prizes, you just gave a small cash prize, and HUGE TROPHIES! IF we wanted gear and guns, we would go out and buy them! Trophies are what everyone really wants

do like a 15 bps cap
all paintball made cloths are ok

o and air stick is just not practical in tournament paintball even in 30 min games

This is probably the coolest thing regarding paintball I have heard in a long time. I think I'm going to now have to find a bunch of people and attend one of these events now! The marker, position, and objective rules are some of the best I have read. This sounds like it is going to be an instant hit.

No ROF restrictions on the heavy gunner?

Dye Rotor + DM9 + $25 a case for Draxxus Blaze = 40 bps.

Raise your hands if you want to get lit up by 40 bps!

lol, what?

yea, that combination always results in 40bps bonus ball, regardless if the game's being played in the woods or on an airball field.

How does the gun + hopper combo turn the heavy gunner into an instant douchebag

it's not the setup that makes the douchebag, it's the douche that makes the setup. the same douche would bonus ball you with a pump (assuming they have the skill to hit you in the first place)!

i think the rules are fairly well rounded. having divisions allows people who want to use their high end, high cost gear and the people who like their "old school", semi only to play in the same game format without causing friction. having a ROF restriction keeps the ball in air rate lower. field limitations will always trump game rules when it comes to BPS, FPS, and ROF.

this format is going to drive away those douchebags. If the format doesn't, the type of players there will. If the players don't, the league will.
This is paintball as it used to be.

fun

I wouldn't go that far. I know more douchbags in woodsball than you have fingers and toes.

The only thing to keep those kinds of players away is a good rule set.

If not, enjoy the 30 bps in the back.

I'm so sure they'll be listening to what you have to say...

This is great, I don't play woodsball, but maybe this will help out those that enjoy woodsball/milsim, as they are the majority of the sport, no matter how much the Agg pbn kiddies want to deny it. I wish UWL the best of luck. Also, Three Rivers Paintballs woods fields arnt that great, (well they werent when I played them about 8 years ago, lol)
