play every summer. i wear head/face protection, have to. it is A LOT of fun.
my best shot i guess: some guy rushed me hard. i was behind a log barrier. i heard him comming and just waited a few seconds. i popped up and just started unloading. i wasn't sure how close he was. i ended up hitting him about 4 times in the groin. he was almost crying. i felt bad about it, i didn't intentionaly hit him there, but i knew he was close and i just unloaded. he called 'HIT' and just layed on the ground for a few minutes almost crying. i appologized a few times.
alls fair in love and war i guess.
as for getting hit, i have had a few marks left, but most don't. i don't bruise easliy, and when i play i usualy wear a few layers even if its hot. i think mostly due to the excitment and adreniline, i don't feel it much until the next day, and even then, most of that pain is from all the running, jumping, diving, etc. sore muscules.
