Paintball @ Isi Rimba ... yesterday

This was my 1st paintball exprience in the jungles of Isi Rimba located at Zoo Negara. Only 16 ppl showed up on that day consists of LYN/XBOX 360 community and organizers. We met up at Zoo Negara and drove into Isi Rimba. We started to register and prepared ourselves. The tutorial was really tired for me because I still have not slept yet due to working night shift before this even but I really dun mind.

The paintball scenario that we played was called "Rugby". The group has been splited into 2 teams, Team 1 and Team 2. The game rules are, there are 3 flags (Blue, Yellow and Red). Blue flag (team 1) is located on the hillside and red flag (team 2) is also located on another hillside and the yellow flag is in between the 2 hillsides. The objective is to take the yellow flag and run to the opponents base and touch the yellow flag with the opponent flag and you won the game. Sounds easy but its hard :). All players only have 1 life. Im with Team 2.

So .. the game started. My team splits in to groups of 3 ppl. Myself and my teamates (Tango) take the route up the hills. As I was already tired and breathing heavily, my helmet visor was all fog up and my vision was kind blurry. My jeans were dirty, my shoes fills with mud but all was great. I manage to shoot somebody but I dunno who that was. Then later on, one of my members on my team got the yellow flag and we were heading to the opponent flag to win the game, I was providing safe passage to the opponent flag and I got shot near the opponent flag in enemies territory. Then I headed to the safe point which is a camp up ahead with my marker and hands up in the skies to let others know that I have been shot. My teamates then shouted that we won the match.

We decided to take a rest, head back to HQ and have a drink. By then, it started to rain and we have to wait till the rain was over to continue the game. Instead of going to the jungle again due to muddy terrain and leeched, we ended up playing speedball instead except myself. I sat this one out because was to tired to go on. Speedball is fast action all the way. I think around 5-6 rounds of speedball until we call it a day. It was around 5pm i think that we all get ready to go back home.

Thanks goodness I did not have leeches on me but unlucky for both my friends who has leeches on them. The whole exprience was great and awesome for me. The thing that I learn from this was to always be prepared, build up my stamina and most of all .. get a good sleep before goin on paintball. Our warjounalist has taken lotsa photos, I will be posting them here when I get it.

Thats all folks. Cheers
