From what i hear directly from the person that turned in the roster, it was directly allen's decision that the person in question would not be allowed to play, and there was no explaination given. If he was going to able to play, he had absolutely no intention of promoting his business off the back of velocity paintball field, he wasn't going to be selling anything or representing his business, he has no logos on his vehicles or any identifying things whatsoever, he just wanted to play in the tournament. We originally entered under the Velocity name, when it was brought up that allen felt conflicted, my friend that turned in the rosted made it known to allen that we would change the name, he still refused us service, later, another captain of a team asked myself and the person in question to play with them(under a completely unrelated name), and yet again, allen refused us service.


Im sorry to hear that 🙁 I would definatley take this up with allen. But let me promise you-- this was nothing of Velocity's doing. But I still do hope it gets worked out.

But I need to ask.. What Velocity name were you initially registered with before you changed it? Was your team going to play as "team velocity"?? Sorry im still confused, it would be nice to have some clarification.

Why do logos matter.....

Ballistic was there.. I seen Pegleg Logos...

Paintball is Paintball... I dont imagin the npple turns teams away for having certain logos on thier jerseys, etc.. unless they may be offensive......

Logos dont matter-- like I said, its only if you are setting up shop and actively promoting. Otherwise you couldnt let anybody on the field because of all the different logos on all the gear, jerseys, etc.

Originally yes were were going to play under "team velocity" my buddy handed in the roster, he just asked me if i wanted to play, i didn't even think about what he entered us under. Allen then rejected that roster because of the name, and because we turned it in late. We were fully willing to change the name we entered under just so we could play, the name didn't really matter.

Another team then asked my friend and I if we wanted to play with them(their team name had nothing to do with velocity) Allen still refused to let him play in the tournament(personal vendetta), and the rest of the people on that team, besides myself and Shawn played in the tournament.

Where the hell is allen to try to and defend himself on this? Come on allen I sent you a pm, come join our discussion.

So The Truth Finally Comes Out

If your roster was turned in late, then Allens feelings toward you and your friend have nothing to do with it. YOU TURNED IT IN LATE.

Even if Allen doesnt like you, rules are rules.. for every team. Should you expect special treatment? Seeing you bitch about how you couldnt play because of a personal vendetta against you is one thing.. but seeing you bitch because you didnt turn in entry fees in time is totally different. Stop trying to bring a tournament promoter down just because he follows his own rules. He set a date for accepting entry papers for a reason. You deliberately tried to mislead everyone into believing that you were treated unfairly by Allen, but in truth, you are the one that is treating Allen unfairly.

In the end, all I have to say is this: Because of the personal attack, Allen probably doesnt like you . Because of your team name, Velocity probably doesnt like you. Because of your bullshit, I dont like you.

you lose.

🙂 Don't worry about things you don't know

I just wanted to give my two cent's on this subject. Personally if you weren't there than don't worry about it. This is between Shawn and Allen, and whoever this better one is. Maybe your not getting the whole story from what has happened, but this is getting real tiring so let's please STOP talking about it.
Thanks,

Better one,

I agree with the above posts.
I am tired of your LIES and Personal attacks.

You have shown yourself to be a person who lacks integrity therefore I dont care what you post its just BS.

Too bad you do make a nice trigger.

If you want to have a real discussion on this you know my number.
