Cyclone Wins Winter Cup 2010 1st round!

I happily announce that Helsinki Cyclone won the first leg of Winter Cup 2010 at Splash Paintball Arena, Tuusula, Finland.

In the preliminary series we won all except one game and were tied with Urho Musta with 12 points. By that we ended up in the final agains Urho Musta and won the game 2-1 despite of Urho’s attempt to push trough our dorito side at the final seconds of the game. Today we were better and I’ll surely hope we continue being better next time :)

DLX Technologies’ saga continues

Darryl Trent from DLX technologies has posted a press release on propaintball.com with information on the season 2010 and DLX Technology / Luxe markers. The short press release has two significant implications. First, it is the first (?) to officially admit that Smart Parts is restructuring with a financial institution in play. The second key point is that the DLX seems to be the cash-cow for SP and possibly be the last to be cut if necessary – or that is at least the tone of the release.

PSP goes back to ROF 12,5 for all divisions

PSP has released an announcement with the season 2010 ROF changes and the full schema of the entry fees and prize packages on all levels of play confirmed. PSP has tried hard to reduce the incentives for sandbagging in the lower divisions, and after a quick read, I think that the new entry fee / reward combination is definitely going to the right direction. No longer is your success in one division rewarded with the bump to higher entry fees with little or no chances for winning.
