yeah i thought about it and it is pretty unfair if the enterance is way high because if your gun breaks down and you cant play or if you just want to go for like an hour than you end up paying a lot. but yeah what cejay said. and good to see you got on again cejay.

Ok, I will say it Again. The paint prices are such because of things Addicts has that others dont. LIKE A ROOF! They are not an outdoor field. That closes for the winter. And has a porta pottie. They have rent, sewer, trash, electricity, payroll.....etc..

It seems everyone just wants to try and get something for nothing. Addicts supports the local paintball players. They allow closed practices, hold tourneys, sponsor teams. Having 3 grades of paint? so people can bitch about how crappy the paint is?

Your not looking at the big picture. Addicts is the ONLY indoor tournament style field in Utah. Extreeme went out of business, Why? Because of its operating costs exceeding its take in. The rent was raised and electricity, water, sewer and trash doesnt get any cheaper. So go shovel a walk, wash a car, Earn the money to play. But dont ask addicts to cut it's own throat. By accommodating everyones whims. Otherwise we will be sans another field.

Even when we scrim teams well usually do pod and a hopper. Tourney ball can be cheap if u make it cheap...woodsball can be expensive if u make it expensive its just all about how u play.

Exactly. I've used a case of paint over a period of a month or two. Mostly woodsball, but if you conserve, you can even do that in tourny ball

Tourny ball takes a bit more. But hey, like everyone else said, they are the only indoor field and that is the shiz!! Save money like the rest of us po people and make it last.

I played at the walk on field yesterday and used one hopper (halo size) for about 2-3 or more games. You dont have to lay down streams of paint to hold people.

Also if you want to have lots of fun get a pump and play that way..... tons o fun!
