If you want to get any attention, you might want to get a little more specific about what this is. What are we shooting? Who's doing the timing? If it's the competitors, how do we know people aren't lying? Who are you? How did you find out about MiA? Are you just spamming every English speaking airsoft site there is?

You make it sound a bit vague and you seem to be doing it purposely.

Check the website, its an overpriced WE Hi-capa, a table with targets, BBs and a "shooting" timer.

Not to mention, shooting your airsoft gun in the basement without googles equals bad idea. Hell, just shooting your gun in the house is a bad idea period.

Well its certainly an...uh....interesting idea. Are you required to use that 1911 co2 pistol or can you use your own? If you can use your own it would seem a bit unfair unless there are rules to the pistols you can use cuz I have a friend with a TM MK23 that has a tightbore barrel in it and that thing is accurate as hell.
It would be nice to have a bit more info since your website doesn't seem to give much info either.

Here's how it works.
Go to the site and purchase the KIT ($299.99) it comes with EVERYTHING need to compete. It has the gun (everyone shoots the same gun to keep the playing field even) its the 1911.

Paul (actionteam), I've got some issues with your post. One, your capitalization and punctuation are borderline. I'm not going to give you a formal warning just right now, but it's something you should work on. If nothing else, it will help you be perceived as a serious poster here.
I'm more concerned, though, with the fact that you haven't actually engaged with any of the other posts here. If you're just going to stop through every few days and post a blurb, you aren't really a member here, just someone looking for free advertising.

If you are not contributing to the flow of the thread, IE: Answering questions; describing what you're doing; engaging in a written conversation... you're just advertising.
If you continue in this manner, you will be restricted to posting in the Commerce Section under 'Retailer announcements' Only.
Further violations would result in the discipline process.

300 dollars + 20 dollars each season? Sounds stupid. Plus there is no way to stop cheating, because believe me if there is no one watching a person time their sessions then your going to see 1.25 second rounds, which if you haven't picked up would be rather impossible.

Yeah....$300 to do what? Compare you're "skills" against other people? Who cares? Is this paintball or airsoft?
I understand those IPSC (or ...I need to go potty...) competitions where people meet up and have to run a carefully refereed and timed course, but doing that kind of thing without any judging or refereeing? I don't see that working too well.
And part of the fun of those actual shooting competitions is being able to build your own gun and use that. People spend hundreds (or more) building race guns to compete in those competitions.
Honestly, this idea just sounds stupid, and $300 for a POS CO2 pistol is outrageous.

For the price you better include at least a shitty webcam to film the person shooting with the "awesome shooting stopwatch" in it to make it at least harder to cheat.

This is a joke. Actionteam, I won't hold it against you as a person, everyone's gotta (scam)make money somehow, but we're not this stupid. This is a total rip, and will never succeed due to your insane markup of not only the gun but your silly program.
20 dollars a season+ 300 dollars for your 'Kit?' You might try advertising on sites such as Airsplat, they cater to a much.... *different* crowd. One your offer might be likely to entice (or entice the parents, being that it's non-violent)
