Amongst the many other accusations leveled against us here at PaintClub 21, like “Insane”, “Lunatic”, “Inappropriate”, “Not Family Friendly”, the one that really hit us to the core was “Humorless”.

Speaking in my capacity as Minister of Sinister Implications and Information Dispersal and speaking on behalf of the organizers of PaintClub21, we take exception to this characterization. Doubt our sanity and state of political correctness all you like, but do NOT say we have no sense of humor! While I know that I’m yet again talking about what’s going to happen at PaintClub21 in violation of Rule #1, the Producers have again allowed me to discuss this contest in an effort to dispel the spurious accusations that we’re humorless.

Recently I was on the phone with one of the members of the paintball media who is coming to this game (and is very excited about it, by the way) asked about wearing a T-Shirt with some naughty words on it, and if it would present a problem to us. I replied that I’d be wearing a far more naughty T-Shirt for this event, so his shirt would present no problem whatsoever.

This led to the idea of having a contest at PaintClub21. Since we neither need, want, nor have any support from the industry other than our own contributions to this game and concept, there will be NO PRIZES. This is simply a fun little contest that will be running concurrent to the events at PaintClub21.

If you’ve got a shirt that your spouse, partner, or pet will NOT allow you to wear in public, then by all means bring it with you to Paintclub21! The Producers and I will be observing everyone as the day progresses and voting secretly amongst ourselves to judge who the winner is. At some point we’ll announce who we think is the sickest, darkest, most demented little monkey at PaintClub21 as expressed in their T-Shirt.

Like any contest, this one has rules. There aren’t many, so bear with us:

1. No Racial Epithets or discriminatory verbiage, art, or concepts allowed. Leave the Swastikas at home.
2. The T-Shirt must remain in one piece, which means if you think you have particularly offensive manboobs, you will NOT be allowed to cut holes in the shirt to sport those puppies.
3. The “C” word is strictly prohibited.

That’s about it. So if you’re ‘in’ at PaintClub21, dig out the naughty T-Shirts and bring them down! If you’re not ‘in’ yet, head over to http://www.paintclub21.com/ to get the process started!
