It's early morning for me. So, my day hasn't really started yet... Probably going to bed here soon since I'm kind of tired from a long day at school. So, what are you guys talking about?

Talking about paintballing. Me and Trevor use to do paintballing together, and we ran a team that generally went up against other teams. We won 4 championships before we disbanded.

That's cool. You guys were talking about ranks?

Yes to a degree ranks in paintball were based on how long you were doing it, and we also based it on your kill and death ratio. Don't be alarmed at kill and death ratio. It's just a figure of speech of how many players you take out as opposed to getting taken out yourself. Ranks generally went like the military.
Private
Sergeant
2nd Lieutenant
1st Lieutenant
Captain
Major
Lieutenant Colonel
Colonel-In charge of 2 groups.
General-Second in Command of the Team.
Chief-Leader Founder of a Team

Note we did skip corporal and we did skip all of general tier and sergeant tier ranks. We did it because that's a lot of different ranks for a team of 50.

Noticed that but I think that's pretty good rank list. I assume most members of your team were in the private sergeant tier?

That's usually how it happens because we had new people joining most of the time; as well as lots of people leaving after because of personal problems to family emergencies. Also being too busy to really attend anymore is a good reason for someone to leave. We held nothing against that because things do pop up in life that we can't ignore. So, we stuck pretty close to 50 members all the time though.

Me and Trevor slowly lost time and energy to continue doing it. So, before we won our 4th championship we said we would be done, and that after the tournament would be done as a team. I gave somewhat of a long speech saying that they were the best that we've ever known. We asked for other teams to take members who wanted to continue playing paintball. That was that. So, we stopped after the 4 champ. But, we could of assigned another general and colonel. But, I couldn't be the leader like I had to be. So, we had to disband.

It's okay it was time for out team to disband. I think we should kind of change gears on this topic though since we mostly made this topic about paintball rather then how your day is going. Well, I guess my day today will be centered around going to college and registering for my summer quarter classes. After that I will begin my focus on church/youth group that happens at 7 pm. So, today looks like it's going to be a long one.
