RESIDENT EVIL: EVOLUTION OF FEAR, November 1, 2008

Another amazing MM game. Dean, BT, & Karl, you guys do not fail to deliver. Thanks so much for a great season. How the heck are we supposed to wait until spring to play again?! I think my favorite part of the Resident Evil game was actually the fireworks, firecrackers, and generous use of smoke. The Fog of War really came alive, and I'd definitely love to see the noise and smoke used as much as possible in future games!

In the AVP game, we learned a TON from playing alongside the GKG on the Predators team. Looks like we should have picked Blue for RE, because BoB put on a similar show of textbook domination. I'm not just talking about being on the winning squad, but about organization, awareness of objectives, and TEAMWORK.

As far as the Highlanders are concerned, Mission Masters IS Paintball.

AVP: TOTAL CARNAGE, September 6, 2008
Thank you MM for just one more day of the greatest example of the greatest sport out there. That's all you guys do, on a regular basis, like it's nothin'. Everything you guys do is gold. Thanks for your hard work, your attention to detail, and for caring so much that paintball is fun for everyone who comes out to play, regardless of skill level.

On a related note, all the big name teams at MM events --- BoB and GKG specifically, from my experience --- are by-and-large OUTSTANDING at working with those of us who are just muddling through trying to figure out how to play effectively. Thanks to all of them too. It's a real pleasure coming to TRP because everyone is so cool, patient, and helpful.

Today in particular, GKG's SniperWolf was a real leader. On that last mission, he and BT were great taking charge, giving directions, keeping everyone focused and moving. That mission may be the most fun I've had playing paintball yet.

We expect to have a VERY large group coming with us to Resident Evil. The more people we can get to come and see how awesome MM and TRP are, the better!

Thanks, guys, for another classic.

My team & I just got back from a scenario game in Ohio (our first game anywhere other than Three Rivers Paintball), and I had to write and tell you how much more we now appreciate you and Mission Masters scenarios.

It was fun of course (how could it not be? It was paintball), and the field is completely unique and a really, really cool field. But the game, while outstanding in concept, was lacking in execution. I now see what you mean about the benefit of NOT having generals in Mission Masters games. Our "General" provided no briefings, no battle plan, no direction, and no leadership.

Rules were too many and confusing, and seemed to be sporadically and arbitrarily enforced by the too-small crew of refs. They needed at least twice as many refs as they had. An unfortunate result of this was a lot of wiping and flat-out ignoring obvious hits, in spite of the extremely liberal re-insertion policy. (We called ourselves out, even when hit by wipers we'd just fairly eliminated. It got frustrating, but we really believe in the "honor" part of good paintball.)

It wasn't at all clear how points were to be scored. Once the horn blew, our "general" was gone and we were on our own. When one of the organizers asked us afterward for comments/suggestions, we told him we had a lot of fun, praised the field, and enthusiastically asked him if he'd ever heard of Mission Masters or played at Three Rivers Paintball. He knew about Mission Masters games and said he's been meaning to get out to Three Rivers Paintball. I hope he comes out sometime and sees how it's done.

Your professionalism, attention to detail, careful planning, and good common sense makes Mission Masters games the cream of the woodsball genre. At the end of the day, emerging from an Mission Masters scenario feels like an accomplishment. It's a good feeling, and it's what I think of when I
think of paintball. Thanks for doing it right!

Ghost Recon: Warzone is already chiseled in stone on our calendars. Can't wait!

Thanks again.
