Endings and beginnings

Hello dear friends! Like you might have noticed, our site has been a bit quiet lately and most of our activity is nowadays located at facebook… Well, FB might be the thing today but don’t forget this site, we are going to update the site now and in future to come

But why so quiet? Well you can imagine how much we disappointed to ourselves when we couldn’t renew the championship. It was right in front of us and we could’ve secured the title in two different tournaments but things came up and better teams won. Congrats to Trivoga for the first title to their team ever and congrats for Dream Team for keeping their stuff together for years and years. Anyway, the season didn’t end that badly, 2nd place for our league team was nice and it’s a lot better to end up 2nd and not 3rd ;) Our Div 1 team Cyclone VDO managed to do well also, they came 3rd. 3rd place is quite nice because the team is put up mostly for bringing up new players and bringing the experience to them.
Anyways, season 2011 struck hard and everyone knows what we are chasing in 2012, there is only one thing that we are after for and we’re gonna get it this time

And speaking of season 2012; league starts later in may but the indoor season has already begun. We’re going to have a secret practice session in a secret place and you will hear from that later. The next big thing will be the winter series 2012 and the first leg will be played here in Helsinki at 22nd of this month. We’re really looking forward to it because it’s going to be a riot: the action is brought to you by Copenhagen Ducks, STHLM Ignition, Instinct Gemoss, Fieldfighter, Urho, Takeover, GH-paintball Team and of course, us, Helsinki Cyclone!
See you all there!

LiveLeague 2011:Oulu (#4)

Polar bears ahoy! Oulu is a former big technology center of Finland. Situated in the Gulf of Botnia, with Sub arctic weather. Both Finnish weather services promise atypically warm weekend, with temperature rising to low 20′s Centigrade. Hope they are also atypically acurate in their forecasts, because they’ve been lousy all summer. Ah, but don’t let me digress any more, you’re here for Finnish League round #4.

Last round. Last push of the season. With troublesome #3 round we are now tied in the first position with Trivoga. Dream Team also has a possibility of being Champions, but both Trivoga and We need to play really lousy. It will be interesting to see how the teams will cope with the different field design.

Liveleague and LiveBlog will continue with only League, sorry. Scores and standings after the break.

PBX3 Goes Social, SocialPaintball Goes Ballistic

A few hours ago Paintball X3 Magazine announced that they will enter the sexy realm of Social Media as “the first paintball social website that ties a paintball magazine, portal, branded social media and Facebook all together in one simple to use, easy to sign up, package”. Check out the complete announcement here and you’ll notice the whole hooplah to become a bit deflated, as one has grown to expect the social dimension to be quite the norm for media in general. A lot of noise for a site update, basically. The more established social venture, SocialPaintball posted a (semi-serious) rant on the subject of the claims on their blog. One part of the post did scratch on a valid point – why not work together? Well, money naturally, but out of greed or the need to survive?

The Perfect Team Dinner @ Farang

Every now and then we get together and organize a team dinner at someones house or in a restaurant. This time the event took place in one of the best asian restaurants in Finland called Farang. Farang is a modern asian gourmet restaurant which serves flavors from southeast asian kitchen. The restaurant is partially owned by Tomi Björck who is one of the finnish Master Chef judges and one of the “rockstars of finnish cookery”… and one of the chefs that ladies seem to like very much ;)

Goodbye .50 cal, the true revolution is here!

Well, it seems that the paintball 2.0 ”revolution” started by Richmond Italia has not caught on like wildfire, so the folks at Empire have devised Paintball 3.0! See the video sneek peek below!

They are boasting an impressive 8 shots per tank! Can’t wait to see the ballistic graphs on these babies, if the promise is anything as good as Richmond claimed the .50 cal to be, this will be a true revolution! Resistance is futile.
