haha hey guys we just finished our first day and were all hanging out at mattys having a good time. The competition out here is super tight and the speed is incredible. But we've been hanging in there, more than definitly. As of now were sitting 3 wins - 3 loses with a disappointing loss in our last game today against XPC factory ( i think ). Some great ballers out here, theres some Aftershock players down here reffing and just good ballers all around. Anyways matty will wanna share some details later, haha ill let him do the rest of the talking later tonight. Anyways take care and wish us luck for tomorrow.
Well, Sunday was not very kind to us. We dropped both of our must-win games to BC Kids and Hybrid. However two of our wins on Saturday where against top-four teams so we know that we can contend with the best teams here. Despite not making semi's I learned alot. Hey, when we stepped on the field against Impact ni our first game on Saturday it was the first time for most of us to ever play 7-man!
I'd like to thank my boys for one of the funnest tourney's I've ever had. Also, MR and Busters for a great event and amazing facilities. I cant wait for MR #2!

I guess all the guys summed it up, but we played awesome when we werent having paint problems, but theres nothing we can do about that. We had a great time, the reffing was good, we had some wicked games and believe me we know what we have to work on for next event and its definatley going to get done, and we are going to come back stronger for these guys
so thanks to mike and his crew for putting on a great event busters for the great facilities and last but not least my boys for a great time at E1, E2 is going to be a blassst!
EDIT: Greg, Jason, Leanne, Ashley, Heather, (forget the other girl there) Joel Hamm, and anyone else that helped us out when we were down, or needed pods filled quick (man we really need to get that pod loader matty) lol
Jamie summed it up pretty good, but wow what a wicked learning experience. But most of all an eye opener to some great ball. We definitley can compete with all those teams, we all know what needs to be done now to come up with some more wins and i know were gonna come through with those wins next event. Thanks to my teammates for one of the funnest paintball experiences yet but also thanks to all our supporters!
