Could it happen, I know spec ops has a scenario league but
could they possibly have a woods league that competes with
the NPPL.

Listen, I'll try not to be annoying. What was wrong with that coat?

Tournments would defeat the whole meaning of woodsball play.

However that would be a cool speedball tourny.

I wish it existed... Why is it that you cant go big in paintball, unless you play speedball?

Because speedball is easier to follow with a camera.

How? All tournament started in the woods. Speedball started in the woods also. All of paintball began there.

How is it defeating the purpose?

It's more of a going back to roots if anything.

If you think people cheat in speedball tournies, you'd have a hell of a time trying to make sure people don't cheat in the woods

^^^exactly, but it would be fun just crouching around the woods finding a nice little cubby spot to wait and shoot people.

here's an idea, get all the pro teams and have them play stock class.  That would be interesting.  You's keep it on the speedball field for that though.

well, that would be a good idea, but hard to follow through.

98% of ion owners think ions are better than any high end gun. If you would like to bonus ball these idiots put this in your sig.

They can split the atom... Surly they can follow a couple guys with paintball guns around in the woods.

Probably wouldn't work because of what people are saying about hard to follow and cheating would be hard to do. Plus if you had camera guys in there it people would know he would be close by. There are woodsball tourneys but I doubt it will never go pro...again.

Please for the love of god don't get a flatline.

there are lots of things that tend to come with tournaments that I don't think would be good for the woods. Like the cheating etc.. And like others said, ist harder to follow with a camera. Spectator friendlieness is what some tourneys are based around.
