2nd Paintball Battle - 22 Feb 2008 - Dusun Ali King

Yes, I guess it's paintball season. I heard they're going for another round next Tuesday again... which unless Plaza OSK collapse, I can't go. Gosh I wonder how much these people (paintball operators) make. I guess they must've gotten back their capital by now. It was last Sunday, Loon's second and my first. It was great!

I've been to Isi Rimba & personally prefered Dusun Ali King, much cleaner & less messy, and no leeches... coz' it wasn't raining the day before :) Of course if you want the jungle "feel", you'd prefer Isi Rimba.

Our team - was it barrel bengkok? I felt safe amongst the armed forces (current & ex).

Sheik's team, yes you saw it right, somebody actually wore an orange jumpsuit, 2 actually. Good sport anyway!

Scary team coz' their markers are more canggih than others, they bought their own markers. I don't know whether if kena shoot by their markers really much more painful than the ordinary Dusun Ali's marker or not but the psychological warfare started when they show off their gruesome markers around before the game. Scary le!

After the game, setengah mati. Until now I'm discovering new bruises all over.

1st Paintball Battle - January 10, 2008 - Kem Isi Rimba

Ref:

Yeah... another one for you guys folks at home & abroad. Ming invited us for paintball with his diver friends and I was really excited for the very fact that I heard about the fuss on paintball but never got my hands on it. Monday - tried Loon's loreng (army jungle uniform), Tuesday - learn some tactics from Loon to mengelak from bullets, Wednesday - came back from office high fever. Loon said I better don't go since I'm still sick... well... it's good that I went anyway... although I didn't get to play... I got to sweat (good for fever), shoot pics for the blog and meet some really nice people. Ate breakfast with Ming & Ai Chin (long time no see) at 8.15am then head up straight to the destination (deep inside zoo negara - didn't even know the place existed before this - quite ignorant for somebody who stays really nearby).

Weapons of mass destruction


I saw this sign before in Cameron Highland's Commando Camp - since I'm not playing... I'm not intimidated.


Who dares win. Guess who? This person didn't even read the above sign. Marched straight in and register himself. Semangat!


Highlight of the day ... best costume. Almost everyone wore loreng and there were practically 4 Yuen Yoon Mings around.


Civilians asking tips from army hero (the one with yellow stripe)...


Action! Who dares win is trying to climb the slope!
Actually the action was only a mere 5-7 minutes. I was pretty suprised how fast it ended. I told Ming most time were spent on players climbing hills and trees and going down slops than even shooting.

Loon's Aftermath (paha)... Thanks to Derrick. Should be me shooting him!!!

MAN DOWN!!!

All in all a good day spent. Thanks to the organisers!!
Somebody is sleeping very soundly now after climbing the hill twice. haha.
For all the exercises he's done today, he deserves a good meal tomorrow. :)
This is the speedball session of countloon, mocha, icecool, nichia and spazm. Won the 1st round but lost the rest! hahahahahha
