WWW.BATTLEFOAMBRIGADE.COM

So that is the official press release of the Brigade. We just launched this baby tonight, so go easy on us. Bugs may pop up and the site will continue to get new features and fun content. The goal of the site is to help people get out in the gaming community and set games up against other players they may normally not know about. Its really a tool to help grow the hobby as a whole. The more people join the more people will build games that new people will play in.

The site also offers a simple game tracking system that allows you to see how you do over time and learn from past games.

Store owners can use this tool to post tournaments in their areas and invite gamers to play in it.

As the site gets bigger and we grow we will add all kinds of great features that will do a bunch of cool things.

Have fun and enjoy the experience. We hope you guys like the site.

Thanks

So I signed up only to find out this thing is about paint ball? What's up with that?

Lol, I told you there are bugs still. I have a very good friend that runs a site just like this that is made for paintball. We actually worked together to convert that engine into a table top gaming engine. Still working out a few bugs but we need everyones help to catch things we miss.

If you notice anything please use the email on the site so we can correct it. Thanks and we really appreciate it.

Tried to register three times, keep getting the following message:

"Your ZIP/Postal Code does not match the City you entered"

Which is kinda impossible because I've lived here for fifteen years


**edit**: fixed it. Your database uses municipalities that haven't existed in Toronto for about 10 years now.

Can you add some way of changing the color scheme?

as we build the site out even further we will add different countries. Canada, UK and all the others outside the US are still being added.

Keep in mind this is the BETA version so it takes a bit to get right. Lots of coding causes all kinds of bugs and problems so we are working them out. Your help is greatly appreciated with suggestions like the color idea.

If you find that your trying to sign up and your country is not USA then just use the US as your country until we upload the rest of the world. You can always go back later and edit your account.

For the time being it will be a US site while we debug the little details.

Thanks for the comments and help so far.

Its the coolest free thing in paintball!

I realize the thing just got off the ground but you might have wanted to wait until all the paintball references were removed, it just looks a little confusing and unprofessional.

Also the section that says its the place where tens of thousands of players gather... and at the top it says 27 members worldwide.

You're just opening yourself up to the criticisms of the internet nerd rage. I hope this takes off because i'd love to have one resource to find multiple players instead of having to search forums and stuff. But for the love of god romeo don't rush it devil dog. Slow and steady squeeze to the rear.
