- From the player's point of view, its a great a idea. Players will be saving
- money in paint costs, concentrate more on tactics, and less likely chance of
- being lit up.
- For the field owner, its a money losing idea. Players won't be spending as
- much money on paint (no more 1/2 case per person sales), have to set up a
- separate group for players which require additional referees, and
- administration.
- I heard alot about the success of California stockgun games, but none of the
- fields up here feel they can make enough profit to implement it on a routine
- basis.
