First of all if your not there, how would you know? Ignore the propaganda and support a circuit that supports utah paintball.

Second There are very strict player guidlines in black and white, it is there to prevent sandbagging and promote growth from the new and young teams. If you don't meet those guidelines then you might have to arrange something differently...we all did.

The circuit is growing and maturing, teams, promoters and players are learning and will always be learning. No tournament is perfect, But the Uxpl has been the best one yet as far as im concerned.

Jordan,

Did you even help allen take down the fields on Friday night? I know you and your friends were pissed that you weren't able to play and left with a log stuck up your butt about it.

I am not privy to the details of why you or your friends were not allowed to play in the tournament, but you have to remember that the UXPL is to help promote young teams who are begining to play the sport. the UXPL is not to utterly humiliate the less experienced teams by those teams who have the $$$ and ability to play nationally. Your team is very good and I am sure you could play in the novice division in the UXPL and do very well for yourself. Whether or not Allen permits that, is up to him and he does have to make sure that the tournament is the best for as many people as possible.

I think this UXPL ran the smoothest and with the least number of problems (depsite all th problems) than any of the other tournaments I have attended this and last year.

Franky and Jason explained the format exactly right. The only time we care about the score of the game is to determine a winner of that game.

After looking over the schedule and the rules I can see where you were confused, nothing is in black and white on the finals format. I am sorry for the confusion, I usually go over the format with the teams before the finals but I didn't this time. I'll make adjustments on the schedule and/or the rules so that the format is better defined.

Thanks for the input.

I am sorry for being a bitching wining person and I appolagize to everyone. Mostly I wanna appologize to allen for my immature acts. We have not been playing UXPL because playing YG they say we can only play YG events. But apparantly that rule has changed. So I hope to be able to play the last one with my team. And yes the UXPL looks way fun to play. Sorry everyone for my immature acts/post

Jordan,

Kudos for the sincere apology.

Let's all back off the kid now.
